Most shocking death scene in a game? [SPOILERS]

I loved aeris dying(that was her name in the version I had... the eu one IIRC), tifa was hotter :D

I had to stop playing for few minutes because I was crying. Only Suikoden fans will understand

Ted's sacrifice in Moon Valley in Suikoden 1

Somebody incredibly important in the first quarter of Phantasy Star II.
Pathetically plagiarized later on by Final Fantasy VII and Phantasy Star IV +)

asassians creed revulations Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

Anderson in ME3

"You did good, son"...

When you're playing a hardcore character in Diablo 3 and it dies...

Mayu's death in Fatal Frame 2

The boss of super mario .. he threw him in LAVA :O :O :O

Battlefield 3 when YOU get executed

Dota 2
If you know what i mean

i heard that Harvester has some gruesome head smashing. Also Phantasmagoria has a headsplitting by a guillotine.

When the one "important" dude died in Mw2.... just kidding

I must say that the death of the Cheshire Cat was shocking to me too :/

Cod4

Bioshock 2 ending. ;_; big daddy dies...

Splatterhoue 3. If you do not beat the levels within the time limit, both Jeniffer and David die. The end quotes "Alone, all alone. Jeniffer and David are just now a memory." This makes you feel depressed, I even cried over this brutal 16 bit game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPgmY_R83gU Thumbs up if you love this franchise.

Zack in Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core

+1 for all of those, and also Zack Fair in the FFVII series. I'm not sure his death is actually shown anywhere other than the movie, but it still hangs over you through all of Crisis Core :(
