So I just finished Wolf among Us and the ending was such a plot twist! Not an obvious one but it was pretty well done! As someone who read the comics, pretty much everything in Fables is explained clearly at the end of each arc so what Telltale did was sooo awesome.

So, which game has the best plot twist in your opinion? Please try to be as spoiler free as possible.

Why no spoilers? I love spoilers.

As for the twist, Second Sight and "You can't change past."

Tbh, so far there was never a plot twist that I did not see coming. Well, there are ones that were really unexpected, but I am never surprised or anything.

Just remembered Final Fantasy 6 (or 3 if you're still using American SNES numbering):
You end up in what you think is the final act of the game, plot tries to make you believe there'll be a peaceful ending. Now, said peaceful ending would be a twist in and of itself, given that you're dealing with a reasonable-but-still-evil ruler of an enemy empire and his complete psychopath general (2 points that are established quite early on). But that doesn't happen.
Instead you get a more predictable run to a final confrontation and then YOINK! Welcome to the real final act where the entire premise of the setting and the gameplay style get twisted around.

Well, I wouldn't call it a 'oh my god, I didn't see that coming' type of twist but I would add Little Inferno to the list ^^

I would love to see a parody of Luigi shows up on a cart, tells Mario "The princess is in my castle now". and drives away while giving the death stare......

I would pay soooo much to watch it lol

Also noone mentioned Silent Hill 2 yet? o.O

plus Alan Wake had few great plot twists in first half, sadly second half was totally predictable.

>Plot twists in video games
>plz try to be as spoiler free as possible

This isn't going to be easy... :P

Be warned: This list might contain minor spoilers.

Saints Row: The Third: It has a few plot twists, but mostly just silly ones where you don't expect that to happen in the game.
Batman: Arkham City: The ending was quite a plot twist, I guess.
Dust: An Elysian Tail: Near the end, when you find your (somewhat) identity.

ok, maybe I missed it because I read the book long time before I played the game - but where was there a big plot twist in Metro 2033 o.O

I think I know waht you're reffering to - and well - maybe it's because I've read the book - but for me it was rteally heavily hinted in all "dream" cutscenes through the game ;p
