After  a  good game you usually expect a decent ending,animated or frame
told,however  most  of  the  time  we`re  treated to nothing more than a
`congratulations`  or `well done` screen followed by the credits.This is
really  disapointing  as you`ve spent loads of time playing the game and
then  rewarded  with  a  flimsy end sequence.  What ive done is gathered
some  endings  from  games  to  give  the overall impression of what the
endings are like.

MAGIC  LAND  DIZZY-You rescue grandpa,hop on a balloon and sail off into
the  air-totally pathetic as many people would have played this game for
over 5 hours.

STREETFIGHTER  2-I  guess  all ending of beat `em up`s are the same with
still pictures telling the successfull revenge story,these aren`t bad as
they`re arcade quality but still aren`t anything new or spectacular.

INDY HEAT-possibly the worst ending ever as the game just starts again!

DARK  SEED-A  brilliant  adventure game,with a dire ending-you sell your
house  and  move,for over 8 hours of playing i was a bit miffed as you`d
expect a `cinematic` ending which goes on perhaps leading to a sequal.

MONKEY ISLAND-A good ending as you kill lechuck,get the girl and kiss on
the  dock,i  was  happy  with this ending as at least lucasarts tried to
make an effort.

MONKEY  ISLAND 2-For over 15 hours of gameplay (well to some people) the
ending  was  apalling  as  you  leave a fairground with your family as a
young boy,your brother turns to the viewer as a image of lechuck is cast
over him,he winks and then it ends,suggesting he as lechuck-to be honest
I  blinked  during  the ending and missed it,i had to view it again with
the cheat!

DOOFUS-Q  boring  game  with  a  suitable ending `congratulations you`ve
saved the world` etc etc.

FIRST   SAMURAI-You  kill  the  baddie  and  a  message  appears  saying
`congratulations  you`ve  completed  first  samurai  but  can  you do it
without loosing a life?`....No,and i wouldn`t want to either!

ANOTHER  WORLD-I  think  this  is  the  best ending ive seen on a arcade
adventure as you`re shot in the legs while trying to escape,your partner
carries  you  onto a dragon while you fly off into the distance,a moving
and  well  produced  ending  as its the first ending to a game where the
good guy doesn`t make it.

VALHALLA-BEFORE THE WAR-Another very good ending which makes you want to
play  the original (i didn`t like the first you see) anyway you kill the
king  thus  becoming  the  new one but discover the baby prince has been
took away-absolutley great plug for the game `lord of infinity`.

I know what you`re thinking that these games are old but I only intended
to  show  some  of the endings,I mean when you buy a game you want to be
satisfied at the end right?

[Just  recently  commpleted  Superfrog and the ending was pretty crap on
that  as well.  I tend to get more entertainment out of the process than
the  ending.   If  it taxes my brain, I'm happy unless I can't solve it!
