This Generation's Most Satisfying Endings

Carl B. of iNintendo.net writes, "A game's ending, in most cases, can either make or break the overall experience for the player. Unfortunately, this generation has been filled with endings that aren't up to par with the rest of the title, leaving players with an empty feeling that hurts their perception of the game. Nevertheless, there have been plenty of titles to release this generation that featured fantastic endings."

I love the Portal games. The ending was very exciting.

_DarkCharizard_4577d ago (Edited 4577d ago )

Portal 2's ending did not satisfy me because the song was disappointing compared to the one in the the first game's credits. I think Portal 1's ending should be on the list :P

Super Mario Galaxy 2's ending after 242 stars however, was the ultimate satisfaction ;) 10 out of 10. A complete masterpiece!

Relientk774577d ago

I would love to see The Last Story come to the U.S., it looks like a great game

iamnsuperman4577d ago

I am not a fan of the Red Dead Redemption ending. The build up was poor. I almost gave up before the ending because it got very stale. In theory it would be nice but ,like films, have to keep things interesting. This then ruined what could have been a good ending. I was satisfied it ended because the build up dragged on

WhiteLightning4577d ago (Edited 4577d ago )

It felt like it was put in there for the sake of it

<Spoiler>

The best character Rockstar created and they killed him. How did he know that the government would stop going after Abbi and Jack....he didn't know for sure if they wern't going to kill them after they killed him. They should of made it so they killed Abbi and Jack...while John, a broken man, should of went of the run, least then you could of had Red Dead 3 set a few years after RDR......I mean who really likes Jack, he annoyned the crap out of me

<spoilers>

The endings build up was to make it seem like everything was going to be okay for John and his family but in the end he couldn't be redeemed for his past actions by the government so he was killed. The way some of the dialog go throughout the game between John and the marshals foreshadow this if you every play it again. They say things like "once a criminal, always a criminal" and things like that. I noticed it on my second play.

The game felt grounded with the ending imo since that was the only way it of went to from the start without deviating from its tone and mood.

"The endings build up was to make it seem like everything was going to be okay". That is fine and all and like I said on paper it seems like a good idea but in a game you can't do that. playing those last missions were more of a chore. I already done a lot of the things at the beginning of the game. For me it made me careless about what happened right at the end. I was so fed up I was wishing it to end. You have to keep the momentum up in games otherwise things get stale especially after tens of hours playing it

Pintheshadows4577d ago

Rage...oh wait. No. Ignore that.

I quite like the combined endings of the GTA 4 saga. I also liked the ending of God of War 3.

Brownghost4576d ago

What was so great of gow 3 ending. He stabs himself and the whole world is destroyed

Pintheshadows4576d ago

If you're going to just type the ending put spoiler alerts for anyone who hasn't played it. And if you'd played the other God of War games you might understand how poignant the ending is.

Brownghost4576d ago

great game but story wise not so great compared to others. Ill wait for the sequel to see what they do and everyone knows what happens and its no big deal

You left out The Darkness games bring those back

fan_of_gaming15d ago

The head of Nightdive Studios has posted that The Darkness is on their list of games they want to do, so hopefully something comes from that

Yi-Long15d ago

Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.

Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.

A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.

Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.

fan_of_gaming15d ago

Good suggestions, I'd be in for
LittleBigPlanet
LittleBigPlanet 2
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Motorstorm: RC

purple10115d ago

God damn I love motorstorm so much

At the time I had a low-mid range sony 40” tv, The latency to the controller was waaaay too high, would to play a modern version

In saying that later I got a 3d lg tv and playing the 3d motorstorm in my bedroom with the environment crumbling around the track, was something special, specially compared to what others were playing at the time, will always remember that

Skuletor15d ago

Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.

Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.

fan_of_gaming15d ago

Yeah for sure, sequels would be ideal. But in the current market environment where many big publishers are risk-averse, I'd rather get a remaster or remake that a developer can do on a budget that will be approved, rather than nothing for an IP.

Inverno15d ago

I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.

fan_of_gaming15d ago

Yeah I'd be fine with remasters of PS3 games too, they don't have to be remakes.

Rockstar still strying to make GTA plus work
Should be $6 for the rdr game on sale not 6 bucks for a months playtime

Exvalos29d ago (Edited 29d ago )

I hear ya, 49.99 or whatever the price on that game is, is a bit stiff seeing as it's just a port.

anast29d ago

Why would anyone rent this game?

jznrpg29d ago

One of my favorite games from PS3 generation. I have the remaster as there was a buy 2 get 1 free deal a while back but the price they are charging for the port is way too high although not surprising at all.

Steam's highest-rated game is now less than a dollar in the Spring Sale

Jack writes: "Yet again browsing the latest offers in the Steam Spring Sale has led us to track down the very best. In terms of price to quality, we don’t think that it gets much better than this. Portal 2 is now less than a dollar, and if you haven’t got it already, now is the time to pick it up."

TheEroica38d ago

Portal deserves to be one of steams highest rated games... It's almost tetris levels of perfect game design.

TheEnigma31338d ago

It's a great game, but highly overrated. But for $1, it's an amazon deal.

Friendlygamer38d ago

Valve should bring their games to ps5

Kados37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

Gotta love Steam. Just got Portal 2 for .97 cents CAD. Should have been $1.29, selected the bundle with Portal 1 and 2, which gets a 25% discount, already have Portal 1, so it removes the cost of that, and still applies the full 25% bundle discount to Portal 2. 90% + 25% discount.

Friendlygamer37d ago

That's sweet, I've been thinking about building a modest pc to play some oldies
