I heard Black Ops was named number one... That's enough for me not to give a **** about this list :P


Since when did GWR start including subjective/opinion-based material?

Ya i was shocked about #1 as well and really wonder who actually voted lol

Also i dont know when they started that, as far as i know they just did this "In honor of the 2012 Gaming Edition" so they say lol

[paecmaker]

A crappy list, not a single monkey island game, its just crappy.

[Sunsetforgotten]

Monkey Island, Suikoden 2, FFX. This list is awful.

[Mizel]

All I needed to read was no Monkey Island and Black Ops being #1 to know I didn't even need to look at the list :P

Edit: Ok, just for sh%ts and giggles I had to look.... and I wish I hadn't. Is every single person that voted 20 years old or younger??? Like seriously?? lol This is supposed to be Top 50 endings OF ALL TIME?? 90%+ of this entire list is current/recent games.... and then they say:

"On the flip side, it's nice to see a classic like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time taking the #3 spot, being over 13 years old, and still one of the best Zelda games ever."

Omg, being over 13 years old and a classic..... Because, ya know it would just be *crazy* to think that any game more then 10 years old could even be decent... Im assuming what they thought was.... ughhhh we don't know or dont think anyone else will know anything about older games, so lets just pull one out of a$$ that everyone will know, how about Zelda! /facepalm.

I want to track down everyone that voted, and punch them each in the friggin face.

/end rant :P

[egg-whites333]

i bet this lit was made by ome cod an boy sorry B.O i love you but your ending sucked now BFBC2 was a good ending or even mw3 but not black ops... UHHHG

[CraeSC111]

I think all of the games on that list below black ops was better. And most games not on the list....

[SoopaZombie]

Ya i was just more or less pointing out the fact that I was happy to see at least one game that is justified in being on the list (Zelda), that's what I was implying.

And the list isnt from NeverDoneGaming.com its from the Guinness Book Of World Records.

This quote was written by me as well lol
"On the flip side, it's nice to see a classic like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time taking the #3 spot, being over 13 years old, and still one of the best Zelda games ever."

And trust me I agree with everyone here, I would also like to know who exactly GBWR actually had voting on this. With such a lack of classical games I can only imagine it was more of a younger crowd.

Yea, I knew the list was the GBofWR and I totally get what you were saying. I didn’t mean for that to come across like I was bashing you cause it was def directed at GB and the tards that voted and/or let that be the final list lol I mean, at least there is ONE old game on there :P Just boggles my mind that there was *only* one. You shouldn’t have been able to vote unless you had played all the games on the list or something D:

I think metal gear solid is pretty old too.


But still BO at a first place is the worst thing ever, I WANT BLUUHD!!

[Trunks]

I can't remember how black ops ended, but I doubt it was all that great

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4kAl4XLYB8

Well here it is, best ending of all time lol

Pretty clear that kids mostly voted in it.

[Mizel]

I've never played story mode on any game like BO, but I really can't imagine the story in *any* of them is that great?..... I mean not compared to other games.

[Trunks]

Yeah, I mean for a FPS war based shooter, they have good stories, but if you're comparing them to RPG's and things like that, it's not even close.

[CraeSC111]

I thought that Black Ops had a somewhat predictable storyline. I didn't like it as much as the Modern Warfare ones

LOL ya no problem was just clarifying...Ya the list was rather disappointing. Your right they should have had maybe a quiz or something before you could vote.

Couldn't agree more :P

Couldn't agree more :P

Dude is so goku-ripped, I love it. DBZ and classic RPG story makes for the best stuff.

Monkey Island, Suikoden 2, FFX. This list is awful.

This sums up my opinion as well. You should have to have played more then 4 games and be over the age of ten to vote. This is just a popularity trend chart.

But really, OoT had a great ending battle, but the actual ending was a let down because it reverted you to the last save and gave you almost no closure. So even that being one of the best games would not qualify as one of the best endings ever.

Portal 2 should be a lot further than 17th place for sure. Bioware games all have a habit of ending strong. The Legacy of Kain series has a few strong endings. I have played so many games it would take me a while to figure out what order to put these is. But it certainly would not resemble that pile of crap.

After reviewing the list there, the only a few notable endings I can find:

Shadow of the Colossus
Portal 2
Mass Effect 2

[CraeSC111]

I would have to agree with portal and mass effect. Well done valve and bioware as usual. But I haven't seen shadow of colossus

[BobTD]

Gasp. I literally cried tears.

Fully grown man brought to tears, the same guy who laughs at the movies that make people cry. That game punched me in emotions I didnt even know I had.

The culmination and effect of playing that game and viewing the ending. Once in a lifetime. Do. not. google. it. Play it.

[Mizel]

SoC games are supposed to be awesome. I have yet to play them either D:

Yeah, OoT seems like a fanboy vote in most situations. It was a mediocre ending to an extremely superb game. I forgot about the Legacy of Kain series. Even then, you have the Breath of Fire series (any of them) and the Jak and Daxter series. I feel like video games are going to get worse as time goes on because of the bar people set for what makes a good video game. CoD and BF= replacement for anything RPG-based.

[GamingWeston]

Valve games tend to be cool in endings as well. Bu I didn't dare to check the list because a lot of games are still up to me and I don't want to see spoilers :)

They only have a list of the games, not what actual ending they got. But the list is still mostly worthless.

[TheMangler187]

How on earth is Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 and Super Mario Bros among a few others higher ranked than Twilight Princess?

[norid]

D:
psssh re-donck-ku-less!

[skaterbobby95]

I think Gears of War 3 should have been number one ending, i hated Black Ops throughout the game, it sucked so much i can't even remember the ending, MW3's ending was an "eh, could have been better". Activision and TreyArch need to quit milking the series, they are making ****ty games, the only way those games will be block buster games is if they bring back InfinityWard, they were making those games the bomb, they went from 9.0 games to 5.5

[phineusbright247]

wow that is one surprising list.......black ops at the top......mmmm...mmmm....... very strange ........I'd much rather have portal 2 on top....
