Cowboy Bebop (doesn't get much better than this)
Angel 

I liked the Cowboy Bebop ending, but Angel was eh.  Angel still had less plot holes than Mass Effect 3 though.

I thought Bioshock's ending was interesting.  The twist came and after it happened I wasn't confused asking "Why is it this way, what happened?"  There was plenty of foreshadowing in the audio tracks and the tapes you found.

Dragon Age: Origins, depending on your decisions (Which actually mattered a great deal in the ending!  LOL)

Heavy Rain, which, as I said with DAO, depended on your decisions which greatly affected the ending in varying degrees.  It could even give you a downright bitter one but it was still done well.  Some of them made me really cringe and almost tear up because they were so heartbreaking.  But they were done well.

Kingdom Hearts 1.

Crisis Core: Final Fantsy VII.

I know I'm reviving an old thread, but still...

Just thought of another ending that I saw last year that was really REALLY sad but I still enjoyed the movie: Melancholia. You have complete closure and no plot holes: everyone dies. It actually couldn't have ended any other way, unlike ME3, because you were shown from the very beginning that Melancholia would collide with Earth.  The last thing you see is the family sitting together as it breaks into earth's atmosphere and obliterates everything.

Schindler's list is downright depressing despite the many survivors, still a really good film though.

...You're assuming that ME3 was sad/bittersweet. I thought it was supposed to be a comedy.

Red Dead Redemption...best game ending ever

I'm gonna be honest, if RDR was a movie it would have been oscar freaking gold, that said as a video game I hated having to play as another character :(


:bandit: John Marston is one of my favorite characters in fiction.


And riding horses is the most enjoyable mode of transportation in free roam games to date.

Cowboy Bebop's ending is friggen awesome. ME3 had just as good character development, but they droped the ball at the end.

Everyone's already mentioned all the good ones, but I gotta throw my hat in for Deadly Premonition. For as wacky and clunky as it was, it pulled off one of the best heart wrenching endings ever in game imo.

Clannad is another, if a visual novel counts.

And while the game is ancient, and maybe not a lot of people know it or would see it the way I do, Ys 2's ending always made me a little sad even as a little kid on the Turbo Grafx, the recent PSP version really did the ending well I thought.

And while I'm on Falcom games, LOH: Trails in the Sky Chapter One has a huge punch in the gut in the end.

(Spoilers) I'd contest Arkham City. Despite the poetic nature of the scene with the Joker, it always bugs me that he'd rescue a corpse from an exploding building while leaving the wounded love-of-his-life inside.

Red Dead Redemption is a bad example because it is a very bad ending.

John Marston tries to protect his son all his life from becoming a criminal, and what happens - he becomes a criminal. Epic life-fail.
