Welcome, one and all, to day nine of the thirty day gaming challenge! Today’s topic is … saddest game scene.
Not playing that many games with big narratives these days, I don’t have a lot to choose from. When it comes down to it though, I’m going with Cortana’s Death in Halo 4. Over those four games, I grew rather fond of Master Chief and Cortana as a couple, and to see it end the way it did in that game was truly sad, even when I could see it coming. The full scene is below:
Hmm that really is a great choice. Halo 4 was the last Halo game I played and her death was definitely very sad indeed. I so found the deaths of several characters in Mass Effect very sad as well 😢😢
Aye, I haven’t gotten around to Halo 5 yet either. Mass Effect is a series I’m interested in, but haven’t played either.
Looks like Sony machines don’t have the monopoly on well endowed video game ladies.
Some of the saddest endings I have experienced, in video games, are the finale of Shadow Hearts 2, Link’s Awakening and Metal Gear Solid 3.
I think that I saw the MGS3 ending on Youtube a while back, but i’ve not actually played SH2. Link’s Awakening I own but never finished.
