Best/Worst Video Game Endings Ever

[Clayton]

i really hated the halo 3 ending. from the commercials and the online promotions i was promised an epic final battle to protect earth. and of course, the real ending was reallllyyyy lame compared to what i expected.

I loved the Mario Kart 64 ending. Great music, awesome visuals of all the courses (the DK course with the waterfall made me jizz), and then the final with Mario saying "Hey! You very good. See you next time!"

totally awesome

The one game I beat on my old 8 bit computer Gryzor known as Contra in the US had an ending that shocked and horrified me.
Upon beating the final boss I was greeted with a screen showing the earth from space with the words "congratulations you have defeated the evil aliens and saved the world" then suddenly the earth was ripped apart by explosions and .left
as a brown wasteland and the words changed to say "sadly the alien mother had fussed her self with the world and killing her caused its destruction".
I was kind of shell-shocked, you didn't beat 8 bit computer games no one expected you to so having beaten one I expected so sort of ticker tape parade in my honour or at lest a congratulations not the destruction of the world.

Thankfully this isn't how it really ends in Contra. Which I'm surprised no one has nominated as one of the best.

I'm a little sad. I can't remember any good or bad endings to any of the games I've played [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I'm just staring at my collection to try and remember. I'd say Twisted Metal Black has some pretty good endings. Argh why can't I remember [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I've run up around 60 plays of it in the last couple of days, I'm worried

Worst: Mario Bros 2. I HATE "it was all a dream" endings.

Fallout 1 for best. KOTOR 2 for worst.
