What's the most emotional experience you had in a video game? For me when I was playing Fallout: New Vegas and I was in the Nipton town hall and "Johnny Guitar" played on my radio. Having that sad song in the creepy building kind of made me scared and sad at the same time. And I admit I was almost going to cry when the song was about over.

I shot out of my chair and started muttering when a zombie came out of nowhere in the haunted asylum/orphanage Shalebridge Cradle in Thief 3.

During the campaign of Homefront, when the kid in the concentration camp is asking for food, saying he hasn't eaten in days, and we can't help him. Also practically any moment in Homefront is an emotional experience.
P.S. I am now afraid of Koreans.

I looked at the game. I can't feel bad for it - it's all in your face and it's rediculous. You're meant to try and see it to feel it, not have it like "bllaaerghh look at this".

That's how Horror Games are so scary, you don't play to win, you play to get immersed.

I've already said my most emotional.
But hey, let's throw in Amnesia: The Dark Descent again. I was playing it and 19 minutes through I heard a monster behind the wall go "Blaaergh". I knew it wasn't there, but I also saw a vid-- yes, there are spoilers. I saw a video of one of the people from LAGTV playing and the monster was an illusion behind him. Knowing this I didn't know whether it could've even been real or not, and I was already shaken up beforehand so I just thought to myself "Okay, screw this" and exited.

I may go on it soon. :>

Shadow of the Collosus, the death of the horse.




See, if you watch the ending credits your horse never died it was just injured.

Amnesia is BY FAR the scariest game I've ever played. There's just something about the gameplay and the notes and the mildly good graphics which just terrifies the crap outta me.

But still, seeing your horse fall into a 500 foot chasm and then having to kill the most powerful Collasus in the game is a tad emotional.

Yes, we all know Red Dead Redemption will make you tear up. Rockstar did such a good job having the player care for John.

And in Red Dead Redemption Zombie version, almost everyone in the original dies.

I didn't get rlly emotional on this example but in LoZ: Ocarina of Time, lots of the cut-scenes and music evoked a depressing tone; but i got over it. Also the game reminded me of my childhood a little bit...

Every time in rock band when I fail a song on drums after doing so good pisses me off, sometimes the game has trouble with sensitivity.

As a young child I also played this game called Pac-Man World 2, every time I saw it or played it it reminded me of when I used to love tht game.

I would have to say when playing an MMORPG called Cabal Online, I used to run the hardest dungeon in the game with a 7 person party at least 5 times a day and like most people at the time, could only get to the second from last boss as the last has too much regen speed and damage. And just messing about we decided to attempt to kill the last boss which has two forms and is unbelievably IMBA and to our surprise we actually managed to kill it (After a painful experience of watching people dying left right and center for a moderate amount of time) This is quite easily the happiest I have ever been when playing a game. Just seeing that mob die was so pleasing. Shame it dropped only craps though.:L

And another emotional experience I had was after killing the first boss in Breath of Fire III only to find out that the creature was stealing peoples cows only to try and feed them to it's already dead younglings....That was quite depressing.
