Call of Duty, best ending ever...

For the Guinness World Records 2012 Gamer's Edition book, 13,519 votes were collected to bring us the "definitive list of the greatest video game endings of all time." By "definitive," Guinness means not definitive at all by their own admission that "the list will cause heated debate." The titles that dominate, which come almost exclusively from the last decade, don't determine anything other than how much of a popularity contest these polls really are.

Call of Duty: Black Ops tops the list as supposedly having the greatest videogame ending ever. Oooooh! Zombies! Mind-blowing plot twist right there. Do the entries get any better further down the list? Well, #11 is Super Mario Bros. That game doesn't even have an ending! The Princess just tells you to play hard mode! And Sonic Adventure 2 is just... wrong. You can check the full list below. Admittedly, some of the games have decent endings, but there is no rhyme or reason to the order. Seriously, this did not need to be a thing.
I can't even speak... I can barely type. But are you FUCKING KIDDING ME?! Call of FRIGGIN DUTY?! No mention of Mother 3, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Sakura Taisen... SOMETHING that showed this wasn't a damn popularity contest!?

I see things like this and think, "Hey, at least it's not the Open Source Boob Project."

I get the feeling most of the people who voted didn't quite understand what they were voting for.

Jesus Christ, why did I look at it.

Fallout 3. The ending nobody liked. The ending that everybody agreed was stupid, pointless, and against the spirit of the game. The ending the developers fixed with DLC by having a character point out it was stupid. Is on the list of greatest endings ever.

Conversely, Metal Gear Solid 3. The ending that is generally agreed to be the high point of the game. That reduces me to tears when I watch it. That cleverly homages and pulls apart both action films and power fantasies*. Is lower than Super fucking Mario Brothers.

What the everloving fuck.

*Spare me your lolwuts, I know I'm pretentious.
