Oh, I just remembered. I watched Rocky Balboa a second time last month and I was blubbering through pretty much the whole thing. I guess I was just feeling very vulnerable that day. :oops:

Yeah that was me. Great minds, Loire...great minds.

The end of Link's Awakening for the Game Boy Colour?

The music of the start-up menu of Halo 3, after you've just completed the whole game?

Anybody?

Do excuse me while I go and insert a tampax into my big girl's vagina.

Freddie doesn't look that ill to me in that video. Didn't make me cry either.

I forgot; the end of Leon makes me cry sometimes too. :(

The only game that has come close to making me cry was actually Yoshi's Island, and this wasn't because it was sad, but was actually because it was so happy that the sheer amount of fun slightly overwhelmed me. To be honest, and some people won't agree with this, but I don't think games have reached the point yet where crying at them is really socially acceptable.


That reminds me, when I was ten and had spent the past two weeks playing Yoshi's Island, I actually cried one night when I realized I had already seen most of the game and would never see anything as good ever again. I felt emotionally drained. I was obviously wrong about the latter, but then I was little. That was probably the first time that I realized what this Nintendo magic was all about.

Oh yeah, Short Circuit is another one! Johnny 5 is alive :cry:

Although I might skip the beating up :cry:

Shawshank Redemption
Braveheart
E.T.

Ico
Shadow of the Colossus

Can't remember any more at the moment...

Metal Gear Solid 1? Cried? Jesus Christ! All the cutscenes in that game (specially the end one) were utter tripe. I was facepalming at the cliches & derivativeness the whole way through :fp:

MGS4, dont read if you want things spoiled.

Just in the middle (i think) of the whole shadow Moses section for the first time. Wow, brings back memories, triggered good memories....have to say I feel no connection killing the fit girl bosses, it does nothing for me, what the hell are they...also I got annoyed when otagon made a joke about changing disks at the point you would have had to on the ps1 version...yeh at least that didn't have massive hard disk install sections...generally its not been triggering many emotions for me this game, apart from this shadow moses bit, which if you ask me is kinda cheating because of nostalgia.

Anyway, for point of topic, i have never cried after watching something I think. Odd emotions like these crop up though, other games that have triggered rare emotions, generally when you complete a lot of games you get different emotions depending on how good the game is. It is this that makes me want to complete games

24 S5 Edgar's death. It was Chloe's tearful reaction that really struck a chord.


That was hillarious , what are you talking about? :lol:
Any scene in Lost with Desmond and Penny can make my eyes water but the end of season 4 was the only time I can remember actually crying.

Regarding Jurassic Bark and Luck of the Fryish they were examples of Futurama at it's peak and while they were not the funniest episodes , they were extremely moving. Until Bender's Big Score came along and ruined the end of Jurassic Bark.

No film or game has ever made me cry. Two came close though that I can remember, Wall-E because of the ending because it's so damn sweet! Forrest Gump's ending as well.

Real life times I've cried though include getting my A-Level results and seeing I was a grade lower than I "needed" to get to get into Uni but I did anyway and before that you'd have to go to Champions League final 2006 :shifty: :fp:

And I was pretty welled up last Friday

The end of Man on fire had me in tears such a great movie.

Also some songs if they mean something to me can hurt if there related to a bad memory like been dumped.

And Luck of the Fryish. :cry:
