Has a video game ever made you shed a tear?

[noiseredux]

Just started Ni no Kuni. Tears were shed within the first half hour. Damn.

[Menegrothx]

^How is that even possible? Coming from a guy who preordered and loved the game btw.

[Michi]

All the grinding made him cry.

[Menegrothx]

Atleast you get to hear this a lot in that case. It's a quite sweet tune imo.

[Sano]

Yes, but I can't remember which game....

[MrEco]

I nearly cried from a game just a couple days ago.

Played and finished Journey.

When going up the snowy mountain at the end, I could sorta tell that me and my partner were slowly dying. We walked slower. Our voices kept getting more quiet every time we "sang." And as we traveled up the mountain we both kept singing back and forth, as if trying to comfort eachother. Then, suddenly, my partner fell down. I literally gasped in real life and was like "Oh god no." It was crazy...

I don't play a lot of story heavy games, but I was watching trailers for The Last of Us earlier today and was getting watery-eyed at how awesome it looked. I seriously might have to borrow my brother's PS3 and pick up a copy of that game...

Also, I definitely did one of these:

after finishing the 2nd loop of Air Fortress for the first time and listening to the end credits theme.

Oh yeah, and Dr. Mario <--seriously, don't click that.

Oh yeah, and Dr. Mario <--seriously, don't click that.

Damn these onions.

Oliver's mom died?

Yeah Journey's good for evoking all kinds of emotions.

A character that I was just introduced to, to whom I had no emotional connection with? Nope. I'll give you that it was unexpected though. Ni No Kuni's greatest strength and weakness is that it's a Studio Ghibli product. The graphics are amazing and the world is full of charm, but the dialogue and writing is very simplified.
