A list of the worst game endings:

The recentness of Neverwinter Nights II is probably why it did not get included in this list.Â
Game: Rich graphics, exciting animated scenes using the real-time player rendering and high quality voice actors. Lots and lots and lots and lots of monsters of a huge variety of types and capabilities.
End: Tedious fight against the end boss, and then a slideshow with a very flat voiceover by someone I suspect was one of the developers.
Can you say “We have to get this out the door, to Hell with the fancy ending!“
almost as bad was the ending to “Return to Castle Wolfenstein” It was bad enough that all of the level “end bosses” were incredibly easy to kill, even on the hardest setting, but the end was lame.
I can’t really remember a game where the ending lived up to my expectations though.
