Do you feel sad when you beat a good/great game?

Yes, I do.

Mass Effect is the best example for me. God, the ending was just too epic, especially when you have invested a couple of months in the game (school was killing me). I always thought "Oh, this is how it all ends? Hmmm, ok..." but then another fight starts and another cutscene appears, etc. Let's just say I haven't been so proud to watch the credits of a game in my entire life (and the music was pretty good, it matched the style)! I was sad at the same time because I would have to wait another year for a sequel.

Oh yeah, I also recently finished Grand Theft Auto IV. I didn't know if I wanted to complete all the side-quests (stupid pigeons...!) or just finish the game already (the last missions were intense... emotionally as well? ;) ). Usually, I try to keep as much side-quests as possible before beating a game so that when I finish it, I'll eventually come back and try to complete it 100%... but I couldn't help myself this time! I'm a bit sad now because I wished I would have done that. Socializing sucks! =P

I have to say that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption was an important title for me as well. I mean, I've played through Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes just for that game (and can compare all of them in the end too, so it's fun!). I didn't want the game to end though... God, I just can't imagine when Metal Gear Solid 4 is going to come out! I don't want to see Snake die! @_@
