Know any bad video game endings?

CVG has a feature out listing the worst video game endings ever. Their picks range from Xbox RPG Fable, to PC game Knights of the Old Republic II. Needless to say, spoilers abound in the feature as it details why the ending of each selection sucks.

Since, giving away endings might ruin the act of playing the game for some of you out there, we won’t relay to you folks all of the games they’ve selected. Instead we’ll give you one of their choices as an example (hopefully a game whose ending is already widely known), and then we’ll ask you guys YOUR picks for the worst game endings ever.

Here’s a sample CVG selection, and their reasons behind it:

SMBSuper Mario Bros. – We know we’ll have crowds of Nintendo fanboys hurling stones at our offices (which AREN’T in Baker Street) for this but, after jumping our way through eight worlds of hardcore, turtle-stomping madness and FINALLY saving the Princess’ royal arse from Bowser, we didn’t much appreciate her simply telling us to do it ALL OVER AGAIN. “Thank you Mario! Your quest is over. We present you a new quest. Push button B to select a world.” Cow.

Well, do you folks agree with their pick? Do you have any other horribly mangled endings in mind? Feel free to comment away.
