This one definitively takes the cake for me, at least in terms of story.

Your horse, a totally cool animal, died so that you could become a baby. You give your all so that you may feel the warm touch of your woman again only now she is like your mother because you are a BABY!
You turned from a person with a mature, functioning penis and a girlfriend into a b-a-b-y.
LAME!

Red Dead Redemption
ok..not really bad...but just drug on way too long. Awesome. I killed Dutch! Let's ride home to this awesome music and finally see my wife and son and watch the credits roll. Oh...we have to heard cattle halfway across the map first? Ok. Shoot all those crows? Really? Ok. Drive the cattle out to pasture? Seriously? Am I getting paid for this? The fuck. We are going hunting? For real? I'm sick of hunting! Now I have to wait until 6 a.m. to talk to my son again? I guess I can go quick save twice. Ugh. Ok now I'm dead. Great. Credits please. Oh I have to go there still? Of course once I get there I'm told to go someplace else....and just for good measure...one more place halfway across the map to go. Good lord. Yes. I'm here to kill you. Blam. Credits please. Thank you.
White Knight Chronicles. While the story wasn't exactly engaging, I at least felt that I, as the player who sloshed through the mirade of topographical nothingness and the insipid inner monologues of minor characrers, deserved some fucking closure. Did I get it? Fuck no I didn't, I got a shitty part 1 ending that basically set up the story for the sequel. That's not how you do games. That's not how you fucking design a game!
You want to know how to design a game for the sequel? Look to Xenosaga, hell, look to Shadow hearts, even Kingdom hearts 1 did a better job. Literally left me WTF'in at the end. Could not believe it. I thought I was near the end, but that shit was it? Horrible.
Enjoyable online/combat though.

I just did it for Black and White, and got literally nothing. I don't think you get the star until you obtain the event legendaries that haven't been released yet!Acerac said:

I don't know what this game is, but it sounds like the best ending ever. Conglaturation!
Edit: Is there a way to put a space between a paragraph and a quote?

GoW3-"I've got nothing else to kill, so I'll kill myself".
Killzone 3-"Man a lot of people died" que Techno music.
FFXIII-Save Orphan, Save the worl.....nah lets just kill him and hope for a miracle!
Mass Effect 2-So they were creating a Terminator.
Oblivion-Yeah you did all this to find a king and now he's dead.
Resident Evil 5-"I wonder if it was worth fighting for, it was!"

It's probably too late to mention it now, but there was a thread similar to this a month-and-a-half ago.

Metal gear 4 ending was great man.
Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.dinosaur_hunter2 said:
On topic, I don't remember what exactly happened but I remember being severely disappointed by the second ending in Parasite Eve 1 for slogging your way through all 77 floors of the Chrysler Building. Just a few lines of text, credit roll.
And that Conduit 2 ending is fucking amazing, and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.

The Matrix: Path of Neo's ending is absolutely absurd.

The plot was stupid though, so that goes without saying.

So much wrong here. The ending was amazing in Red Dead.Z_Y said:
You do all that stuff once you get back to the ranch to teach your son how to be a man and how to take care of the ranch/his mom. That is what makes John's ending more emotional and Jack's revenge feel so good. Ending with the happy ending of John getting back to his family/ranch would have been okay but the final act/ending/redemption take the game to another level.

Was Eternal Sonata already being mentioned?
Eventally, probably about halfway through it I left to drain the weasel, came back and decided to skip the ending altogether. It was the most boring and pretentious piece of shit ending I've seen in a game. I usually sit through them, after all that work.
And it was the Ps3 version which was supposed to be better.

No one's mentioned Alone in the dark yet? That's got to be, the worst ending of them all. It ruined whatever little enjoyment I had in that campaign.

A friend and I just finished Army of Two: The 40th Day. Fun game, but the ending is terrible, and essentially feels like a depressing non-ending. There is DLC with two additional campaign chapters, so we figured that the "real" ending was in that. We downloaded it, had fun playing through it, but at the end there still wasn't much of an ending to be had.
Fun game for co-op though if you pick it up on the cheap.

what should have been the penultimate boss turned out to the final boss. Cue overly long credit sequence.
In all fairness I did skip almost every cutscene so eh.
