Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Fosters home for Imaginary Friends: Imaginary invaders made me cry. I know it is a licensed game, but they based it off of the best episode in the series " Make believe it or Not". Instead of playing as Rex cars alot, Bloo the Blarbarian, Hillary Britteny Lollipop Star, coco Rex and Eduardo the Baker to the King who would use there unique skills to fight off the evil space nut boogies, you play as bloo and you wander around doing fetch quest after fetch quest. The worst part, the final boss is just a flick your stylus mini game.

Shit man, I'm a crier. I cry a lot over a lot of stuff. Movies, books, games... whatever.

My most recent is Crisis Core. Absolutely devastating ending.

Qual é, Dadinho...?

Dadinho é o caralho! Meu nome agora é Zé Pequeno!

Well, um, wasn't everything known about the ending before hand?

I've been teary from being overwhelmed with how great a game was, but never cried in sadness. Not that I can recall anyway.

Any game in particluar you wouldn't mind sharing?

SotC, SMG, FFIX, ME2, UC2, Okami all got me teary at the end just cause it was a breathtaking experience. There are more around but I can't think of them off the top of my head. I really enjoyed MGS4 but it definitely didn't get any sort of reaction like that from me. Heavy Rain had a couple moments within the story that got me revved up, but not really the end so much. It definitely connected me with the characters better than most movies though, but that's often true for me in adventureish games. LO made me well up in the scene at the end of the first disc.

Oh, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations made me cry at the end in happiness, but not sobbing. Definitely had tears running down my cheeks and red eyes for the rest the night though.

 

In other media:

A good few times I've welled up reading. Ender's Game, a couple of Terry Pratchet books, Dragonriders of Pern on more than one occassion, Hitchiker's Guide series a couple times (yeah, sounds weird I know, but it's true), and teary from happy endings in numerous books. 

Plenty of movies make me teary. Up, as has already been mentioned, got me about ready to break down in front of a girl I had just started dating at the time.

In TV, a couple moments in Supernatural got me a bit teary. The end of Dollhouse made me cry a little, as did the movie Serenity (which was really the end of the TV show Firefly). I was about KO'd when David Tennant's Doctor Who died at the end of the last episode. No Doctor will ever replace him for me. :(

In anime Clannad After Story was a fucking bitch on the eyes. I outright cried twice in that, and got teary god knows how many other times. Probably the only thing I've come close to literally sobbing at in 10 years. Toradora got me teary at the end, as did Planetes. Kino's Journey never made me cry, but ripped my heart out nonetheless. The very first episode of Cross Game made me cry. Other anime have effected me emotionally pretty strongly as well, but I won't name all of them.

 

Most of these instances are more me getting teary or welling up a bit. I don't outright cry very often. Clannad, however... I mean this scene was just fucking cruel (warning don't watch if you ever plan to watch the Clannad series):

Prefer the train scene better...

If you're looking for depressing stuff.. watch this...
