    Sad. That was probably the worst thing about IX. The happy ending. But then, it was more of a humorous game then a dark one like the two previous titles. Anyway, Tactic had a great ending. (SPOILER)The good guy save the world, yet they still have to live in hiding, Olan is killed, Balmafula has her tongue cut off, and Ovelia is killed as well. It was great. Like the ending to one of Shakespeare's great tragedies.

    Happy endings. That was the entire reason I played x-2 at first.

    8's was very satisfactory.

    I like FF8's 'mess with your mind' ending more than anything else.

    Not too happy

    Not overly sad

    Just completely f@#$ed.

    I prefer happy endings, but sad endings make an overall more quality and emotioanlly impacting package. That's one of the many reasons why Cowboy Bebop is awesome.

    Cloud: "Only Sephiroth can use that sword."
    "You sure?"
    Cloud: "Of course. He uses it to shave his legs. Do you think anyone else will want to touch it after that?"

    Im not really worried. As long as its a good ending and wraps most things up then im happy. Either way theyre both pretty emotional.

    I like the endings where you think something terrible is going to happen, but then gets turned around by something cool happening.

    To this day I've yet to find an ending that's given me a bigger smile on my face than System Shock 2.

    After defeating the evil computer on the ship SHODAN, she lies in front of you. Throughout the course of the game it's made evident that she believes herself, a computer, is vastly superior to humans. Thusly she talks about how she doesn't understand how a simple human "albeit cybernetically enhanced" could defeat her. But then she attempts to make an ultimatum with your character. She's currently in control of a drive which can enslave the universe, and thusly ask you to join her, saying that the two of you can rule together...

    Close up to your character's face - "...Na!"

    He then shoots SHODAN in the face with a pistol, thusly owning her. He then contacts a shuttle which had been jettisoned with two surviving crew members, only for another scene to show one at the intercom talking before the other comes from around the corner, the outline of SHODAN's form showing she's been subverted into a cyborg with SHODAN's personality, leaving the first lady of Psychotic AI's laughing.



    Then again, that's just me...
    There is no signature here. Move along.
