Borderlands.

see, at least in Mass Effect 3, you still accomplish what became your goal since the last act of the first game. in Borderlands, you fight a bunch of tentacles and get lackluster loot drops, when the whole point of your character being on that planet in the first place was to find the supposed technology that could make you rich and famous. you don't even get to see if it was real or not, because the Vault closes for another 200 years.

Borderlands had resolution, the whole game was not a lie, and it was not 20% overpriced for half a game. Mass effect 3 was all of those things.

Borderlands.
Stargate Atlantis... TV show nvm.
Battlestar Galactica... TV show nvm.
Every Mario ever.
And Mass Effect 3.

Yes, ME3 has an ending worse then itself.

 Deus Ex: Human Revoultion. I find my disappointment with ME3's ending very similar to that of DXHR. It started by poorly introducing a very bizarre concept and then continued through a disappointing final encounter into choice that I didn't fully understand. The final cutscene was incredibly abstract and didn't actually tell me anything about what happened in the outcome. It made a little bit more sense in that case, though, as it was a prequel rather than the end of a long running trilogy. After both endings I just decided to focus on the majority of the game rather than the ending cinematic.

Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.

Yes it was buggy and had a ton of content cut. But it was still an enjoyable game.... until the end; which again just goes back to the fact that the game as a whole had suffered due to being developed and rushed out within the same year. And despite Obsidian offering to release a patch/add-on that would fix those problems, LucasArts ultimately told them no.

Unless you got the mods and unofficial patches that helped restore some of the lost content, you were basically left with something similar to ME3's ending.

As Lanipator of Team Four Star once said: "Why ME3, Why? This is some KOTOR 2 level of bull**** endings."

Fallout 3 before the DLC fix.

Why is it that my character has to go into the irradiated room and die when he has a companion that is immune to radiation?!

It was the most nonsensical ending ever in a video game. That, and compared to Fallout 1 and 2 the ending was massively disappointing in how little your character's actions shape the world. One of the staples of Fallout games was that your character's actions in each town or settlement they visited had an effect on the world, and that was noted in the epilogue. Fallout 3 largely abandoned that.

I found DXHR to actually be much worse then any other ending out there, for the ending didn't seem to be connected to the story as a whole.  At least with ME3 the ending was connected to ending the Reaper threat.

Fallout 3 without DLC.

Worse I don't thinks so. At least I was able to choose my course of action, whatever the results be: Role Playing Game.

I remember being disappointed with the ending of Fallout 3 (before Broken Steal), but it still was not as bad as the Mass Effect 3 ending. At least Fallout 3 had a short epilogue (which was too short) mentioning what happened to some people and places.... But the ME3 endings were exactly the same for paragons and renegades.

The most disappointed aspects of the ME3 ending are
1. broken illusion of choice and
2. the whole Mass Effect Universe, as we know it, is screwed

<-- Doesn't consider the core game's ending to be the actual ending.

Borderlands somewhat fixed it's lackluster ending with the superb General Knoxx DLC, which I personally hope will be the case with Mass Effect 3. Cautiously.

Let's see:

-Soul Calibur IV (that's when they decided to stop having endings)
-Soul Calibur V (the entire Story Mode is bad...but yeah)
-Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II (ugh...yeah...)
-Saints Row: The Third (entire story was bad but the endings were just crap)
-Def Jam: Icon (again, bad story, worse ending)
-Dragon Quest III (no real closure)
-Fable 2 (Reaver...ugh...)
-Fable 3 (why should my wantonly evil character suddenly care about Walter?)

There's plenty...though pretty much most of the aforementioned games had a bad story in general

I never thought that I would ever come across a more disappointing ending than the abortion that was KotOR2. Unfortunately I was wrong.
Obsidian just ran out of time for their real (absolutely brilliant) vision. Which I think was a key factor in the Mass Effect 3 ending debacle as well.
LucasArts... I despise thee. Those guys seem to fly under the radar, but they seem to push out more buggy, unfinished, lazy clones of previous games than even EA or Activision do. And they never fix the damn things. Ever. Their community relations are non-existent. They make EA look look like angels of mercy. BioWare, please don't pull that on us.

To be fair there are a ton of games with endings that are as bad or worse than Mass Effect 3, but most of those games are also terrible from start to finish. Mass Effect 3 is more rare in being a great game that was marred by a bad ending. The pool of games with a similar problem is much smaller.

I don't really care about other games as much as I care for ME.

And hey BioShock was great, it had at least 2 different endings where you see the outcome of your choices. Wasn't even an rpg.

I thought Bioshock's good ending was quite well done & touching. I didn't quite get me to produce any eyeball sweat, but I admit to being moved by it.

But different strokes for different folks of course.

Yeah, though I never cry when playing games. I didn't even expect to find out there was more than one ending though so that contributed to making me pleasantly surprised.

It's the boss battle that makes the BioShock ending lame.

BioShock

James Bond: Blood Stone - it ends literally halfway through the story on a bridge, Bond takes a phone call, then says "Bond out.", then roll credits. WTF?
