I legitimately can't think of anything that ended this badly.

Seconded. I've never had an ending as bad as this one. So bad, that I'm still mad and depressed about how bad it was two days later.

Sopranos was a much bigger deal and there were much bigger "issues" there than the whining going on here.

[Laughing Man]

Quite a few were as bad, but none had the expectations or promises behind them like ME3 had. I'd say the closest contender was FF8 with "Oh wow, I just remembered we all grew up together at the same orphanage!" Suddenly: Time Kompression. /facepalm

But the whole narrative had problems so it wasn't nearly as much of a surprise or let down, and at least it had a real ending and epilogue after all of that.

No Country for Old Men.

yeah, i was actually more mad at the BSG ending than this. i mean damn.

i'd say FO3 had a bad ending, but that entire games story was stupid and made no sense, sure the game itself was great, but come on, the good guys and bad guys in that game had exactly the same motivation, goals and methods. they were simply different factions rofl.

Ultima IX. Origin was bought by EA and they had to rush it through horrible ending. Avatar ends up 'ascending' into a beam of light and a wave of blue energy goes across the land to stop the Guardian destroying Britannia and its inhabitants.

So basically EA indoctrinates good RPG publishers and makes them ship out junk.

Ending:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZt_UTfVSak

oh yeah fable 2 was really unsatisfying. i completely forgot that i played through that entire game. i read this and stopped for a second "wait...did i play fable 2? omg i did, i beat that game. omg i remember OMG I REMEMBER NOOOOO"

ME 3 takes that prize in my opinion.

[77boy84]

Deus Ex: HR's ending left me with the same "That's it?" feeling ME3 gave me.
It wasn't as bad as ME3's but still bad and unfulfilling.

No no the bad guys killed people for no reason, I killed people for money... wait that probably came out wrong.

I don't even consider the Matrix trilogy to have ended anywhere near as bad, it became too absorbed in itself, but it didn't have an ending that wasn't expected, mediocre though it may have been.

Likewise, disappointing though they may have been, we knew what was coming with the Star Wars films, especially after episode 1. They were a let down, but we knew it before hand, and were pretty consistent in their endings aside from the awful 'noooooooooo' of Vader at the end of III.

I really can't think of anything that blew the pooch in the same way as ME3 except for Battlestar Galactica, where they had written themselves into a corner and did things simply for shock value rather than as actual plotpoints (like killing Starbuck) and had to change their tone and direction in order to BS some way back, hobbled by a crippling writers strike. Most of the other things noted in this thread were sort of expected, and even if they didn't live up to expectations, they didn't come out of completely nowhere.

The only thing I can think of that ended this badly is Happy Days.

It was so bad it spawned a new term of phrase (jumping the shark) to describe incredibly bad endings.

As "jumping the Shepard" isn't nearly as catchy, I'd say the ending to Happy Days was slightly better. Slightly.

For me, nothing. I swallowed Matrix & BSG endings alright. They were a bit odd, but ok, can deal.

I discussed the ending with a die-hard Lost fan. It sounds like Lost & ME are on par in terms of being absolutely horrific endings. I can't say whether or not that is true from personal experience, though.

Lost is so convoluted that coming up with a coherent ending would be almost impossible. ME doesn't even have this excuse.

Ok how about this for a coherent ending for Lost. Everyone you see there is dead and they are in pergatory. A place between heaven and hell where it is decided where you go.

Since /lock said he was not ready meaning he was not ready to leave purgatory. Think about it if you were killed then something took controll of all you were it would be hard to get over that.

So there you go the ending to ME3 is worse than the ending of Lost.

Many people have said it already, Lost. The difference between Lost and ME3 for me is that I actually cared about the characters in Mass Effect.

That, and they *explicitly* promised we wouldn't get a Lost ending.

[ajm317]

The Shadow War storyline in Babylon 5.

Also, the ME3 ending would be pretty much par for the course if you judged it by the standards of anime endings. 80% of them are garbled nonsensical messes.

Actually there is a movie that shows the ending but yeah it was still bad. but still since it ends with a movie it's still better than the ending of ME3.

the good guys were powered armor wearing fanatics who wanted to control the only source of mass produced clean water and control the wasteland. the bad guys were power armor wearing fanatics who wanted to control the only source of mass produced clean water and control the wasteland.

not seeing a big difference here
