Games with terrible endings
Sox:
Hahah, this page and the post just before it are funny because I just saw the ending to MGS4 and came here to see what you guys thought about it.
Great ending to a great series.

Farewell, Solid Snake, and thanks for 20 years of memories. /salute

So you came in this thread just because you were expecting a negative post about MGS4, so that you could defend it? That doesn't scream fanboy at all.

Yeah, that's what I did. And yes, it does. Any further questions? I did sort of fumble up there, but I didn't mean to sound like I came here just to defend it. I came here to see what the perspective from a negative standpoint was. Can we still be friends?

Metal Gear Solid 2, not 4, had a terrible ending.
You talk about your games where nothing is resolved, Jesus. Especially once you learn what's happened to Raiden in the interum - the entire game is simply one depressing moment after another. MGS 4 had some of this as well, but it balanced it with some pretty triumphant moments as well, and the sad ones were poignant. Whodathunk that Ocelot's double finger guns and "you're pretty good" would ever evoke even a single manly tear? MGS 4 = GREAT ending.
But MGS 2 - even the final "twist" in the post-credits dialogue turns out to be a red herring. And the whole real-clips-of-people-walking-around-New-York thing feels forced and patronizing, and generally like a sad excuse for a game that doesn't have a real ending, no real cadence point to resolve with. The game itself was fun, but in retrospect, MGS 2 stands out to me as the series weak point for a lot of reasons.

From what I can recall Shinobi for the PS2 had a really lame ending. It was a fun game and all (it always bothers me when a game uses the same damn monsters for every level and just recolors them) but wasn't very generous with its storyline.
