This thread but for vidya.
EDIT: Probably ought to start us off with an example, huh? One of the more recent moments for me was at the close of the first section of Dragon Quest V. Your hero is on a quest to save Harry, the Prince of Coburg from being sold into slavery. You meet up with your father, Pankraz, about halfway through the dungeon and find your way to the cell they're holding Harry in. After finding him, you make your way back toward the capitol of Coburg, but not without a hitch... You get stopped right at the exit by Overlord Nimzo's right hand man, Bishop Ladja, and you're forced to watch (in a battle scene, no less) Ladja's henchmen beating Pankraz to death because he's threatening him with your life by holding a scythe to your throat. What got me was the fact that after your dad gets beaten within an inch of his life and mentions on his dying breath your objective in your quest, he gets obliterated by a fireball... Nothing left of him at all. Your pet great sabrecat cub is left behind while you and Harry are abducted and forced into slavery to build a sacrilegious temple... As the screen fades to black, your cat lays there alone, atop Pankraz's ashes. |

Many scenes of FF6 made me cry. I wish I could list them all here. |

A few beautiful moments in games make me want to cry.
Also, one event near the end of Tales of the Abyss made me want to cry too. I'll not spoil it for those who have yet to play it.. or haven't seen it. The world could always use more heroes! |

I don't cry when I play video games.
I'm just that much of a heartless bitch. |

There are moments of perfect visual and/or audio harmony that just makes me tear up like a little wuss. It's hardly the emotional shit, more just musical, sometimes accentuated by the perfect video. |

Replaying Tales of Symphonia for the.. 7th or so time.. I still weep at some of the beautiful sections of the game, including when Corrine sacrifices itself to save Sheena. The world could always use more heroes! |

Final Fantasy 7 was the only game that made me cry. I was 8 at the time. At the end of the first disc.
Two other games made me want to cry: Radical Dreamers (also at the end) and Shadow of the Colossus. |

Playing through Final Fantasy II made me realize how much sadness there is to that story. It's also very well written, so the emotion is conveyed in a great way.
When you go to Fynn to prove your worth to Princess Hilda, you find Prince Scott in the pub mortally wounded. After speaking with him for a while, he tells you things to relay to the rebels in Altair, and initially tells you to relay his love for Hilda... Only for him to retract the request because of his strength fading so quickly... Only to have him mention moments later about feeling weak and needing to rest, to have him collapse to the floor and die. Later on, you find out about the rebel support in Salamand that was lead by a man named Josef. The rebels noticed they weren't getting the support from Salamand in Semite Mine, only to realize that the imperials had used Josef's daughter as extortion to prevent him from leading the Mythril operation. After having sorted that out, Josef joins you a while later to investigate a snow cave north of Salamand to get into Kashuan Keep. Getting through all of the trials there doesn't come without a price... Because as your team is making their way out, you get ambushed by General Borghen. When the battle is over, Borghen knows he's going to die, and as a last ditch effort to take you with him, he releases a boulder that barrels down the corridor in an attempt to crush you. Josef makes the ultimate sacrifice by stopping the boulder in barely enough time for your trio to escape, but not without the cost of his life. There are a few other times through the course of the game where you're brought to know an NPC, and start to empathize with them, when something dealing with the Empire comes along and abruptly kills them. Although a bit morbid, it's a great way to instill hated toward Palamecia and everything the Emperor is trying to achieve. |

I know there were plenty of times, when I cried to a game, but. I honestly can't remember what ones they were, but... Yeah..Final Fantasy X and XII. Final Fantasy X made me want to cry when you get To Zanarkand. That Clip that plays is just...wow. And also the very end of the game, when somehow he comes back to Spira, and rejoins with Luna, I cried there too. I knew love makes people cry but, even seeing it in a game is enough to make me tear up. |
