In this topic: Spoilers!

[eldaec]

* The brotherhood is the power behind Stalin's throne.

* An old annoying guy loses his footing, falls in the lava, and destroys it through the power of slapstick.

* The government drove them mad on Miranda.

* Lance is gonna betray you.

[UnSub]

* Why are people putting asterix...es on post with only one item?

I didi it because I thought that was how spoiler info was going to be separated from "normal posts". But apparently, I was wrong. Again.

[geldonyetich]

* The thread is eventually moved to the Den of Angst in lieu of a protracted flamewar.

[UnSub]

* Your daughter, who you and your wife found on the side of the road, is really the half the soul of a reincarnated demon that is being used by a cult who wants immense power. Of all the places to take her on a vacation after your wife's death, this was probably the worst.

* Apparently you do still feel guilty about euthanising your wife. After you kill her proxy with your gun, you'll get over it and have a new daughter to boot.

* You get to bear the burden of the Blood Sin and the Grand Grimoire, having found out that it doesn't matter if it was you or bandits who killed your family. The entire game is really a prequel of sorts anyway.

* Having battled side-by-side through hordes of gang members and having beaten the machine gun-wielding big boss, you've now got the beat your partner to death to see who gets the girl. I hope she was worth it.

* Apparently not, seeing how she's gunned down in the street at the beginning of the next game.

[hal]

The taxi driver is Cain. Really he is.

[Ironwood]

*The boss wasn't a traitor, but you STILL had to kill her so she could complete her mission.

Huh ?  Are we on Harry Potter again ?


Oh, and my asterisk was indicating a footnote.
 
:)

[Furiously]

It turns out the crystal stuff you have been using as fuel to power your ships engines...It's alien people.

[geldonyetich]

* (To elaborate on an earlier spoiler:) It turns out that dude with the long sword went insane when he discovered he was a clone made out of artificially resurrected DNA from an ancient's corpse recovered by the megacorperation.  Said power-producing megacorperation is actually harvesting the life energy of the planet.  The main protagonist actually isn't who he thinks he is, but rather has an identity crisis with some dead friend of his who made the cut into the supersoldier when the protagonist didn't.  The cute living descendent of the ancients that's been leading the protagonist on since he met her can see the future so actually has been plotting all along to have the insane dude kill her so she can contact that life energy of the planet and thereby oppose the said dude and his corpse mom.  You'll have to wait a few years for a movie to come out if you want a decent epilogue.

* It turns out that she's dead and was being impersonated by that evil AI all along.  Apparently jettisoning the greenhouse pods in the first game from an orbiting earth space station caused one of them to fly off to a nearby galaxy where the evil AI's creations survived after crashing into a planet.  You'll get to try to defeat it in another 75%+ of the game, but for now you're its puppet being dragged along by a need for cybermodules as the evil AI tries to regain control over its creations.  The couple you found radio logs from actually escapes later on... I wonder if that'll be the grounds for the third game.

* (To elaborate on another earlier spoiler) It turns out that they survived the crash with you.  Don't get real attached them though, as your corpse mom is going to tear them both to shreds before the end of the game.  Also, that fat jerk from the first game somehow escaped the explosion.  Aside from that, not much progress is made.  It's uncertain what happened to your corpse mom and that brother of yours you had spent the entire game just to kill is back.  In the end, the helipad your rescue copter landed on was booby trapped.

* It turns out that the short guy who let you stay in the summer camp until your parents picked you up is actually planning on using everybody's brains to power tanks to take over the world.   You eventually save the day by merging your brain with his and confronting the mental personification of his harsh father.

* (To elaborate on an earlier spoiler that has another side to the story) The wizard who took you in since you were a boy is actually just planning on using you as a pawn all along as he has surrendered to a greater evil yet.  By spurning the ultrapowerful weapon, you're eventually granted access to another ultrapowerful weapon and can take this greater evil down.  He's back in the expansion pack, this time as a dragon.

* It turns out that beautiful woman you were hired by to perform a job is actually a magical creature that poisons you and leaves you for dead.  You spend the rest of the game avenging yourself and eventually end up killing her god boss.  In the second game, you need the magical creature woman's help to take down an organization of technofascists.  The third game is better than the second Deus Ex game.

[Fabricated]

*After a thrilling set of James Bond style missions and killing a mess of the numbered members of this secret society, you find out that you've been betrayed by the President of the United States after nosing around his party boat during the Epilogue. Whoops!

*It turns out the guy before you somehow managed to somehow do all three of the options he got at the end of his journey. You're given the same set of three decisions. The one that actually makes sense brings on the apolocalypse. The rest are pretty much what you expect, and are just as boring.

*You're still Dracula, but other people want to be Dracula too. This game should've been titled, "Too Many Draculas."

[Yoru]

* Turns out all you needed was some root beer.

* While you have saved your home and its people are grateful, your experiences have changed you and you are cast out into the Wasteland. Cue the sequel.

* Regardless of what you do, you die yet again. But this time, you are sent off to fight for untold eons in the Blood War.

* Depending on what you do, you turn into the old alchemist that started this whole mess, get tricked into starting this whole mess by the red-eyed fairy antagonist, managed not to fuck stuff up too badly and head to the pub, start dating the cute girl from the 1500s, get killed by drunks, or remove yourself from the timestream entirely.

* After defeating the Time Master, Man-bot sacrifices his freedom and remains behind in the extradimensional plane to prevent anyone from misusing the Celestial Clock again.

* You vanquish Nemesis and become the true god, ruling over all the land.

* It was Von Karma all along. Edgeworth disappears and Maya goes home.

[Furiously]

It turns out you are not the chosen one who will bring balance to both the worlds. You are just a shifter, and you have some daddy issues.

[Yoru]

Remembered a few more.

* You reunite with your mother, turn into a duck, and realize you can't actually defeat the big bad demon that's about to destroy/take over the world. So you and your duck friends tear off a portion of reality for yourself instead.

* You make your way through the royal castle, get into a confrontation with the evil jester who started this mess, and then turn yourself invisible in front of a mirror, causing him to petrify himself with his own spell. Sucker. Now you're the king. Awesome.

* Your quest was a farce meant to throw you way off track. Turns out the enchanted giant glove was evil and has been manipulating the Gears of Fate to erase the kingdom. You push his sorry ass into the gears and he gets shredded. All is well! Yay.

* (Postscript to the previous two) I never played the third game.

Edit: words = hard.

[Strazos]

* There's nothing special in the box - just a cock and balls.

[CmdrSlack]

* There's nothing special in the box - just a cock and balls.

Is that a spoiler for Second Life?

[Nonentity]

 * As it turns out, the La-li-lu-le-lo deliberiately crashed the Arsenal Gear into New York City as an experiment, and kills his adoption-father he just met, Solidus, on top of Federal Hall. And the Patriots have been dead for like, 50 years.

[pants]

The King's female advisor is actually an evil black dragon transformed into human form.

[Viin]

* Your kid and wife are still dead. But you have some bullets left...

[Yoru]

* Your kid and wife are still dead. But you have some bullets left...

* So you develop a love interest with a fugitive assassin. The villain (thought to be your friend) betrays both of you and shoots her. She dies. Or, if you played on the uber-badass difficulty level, she lives. The cops arrive.

[Viin]

You guys remember the endings of games a lot better than I do. Then again, I don't play to the end of many games. 

[Yoru]

Actually, I was just doing the sequel to the one you quoted. :)

[Strazos]

Arrg, I hate guessing at some of these games.

Max Payne 1 and 2 are above, again?

[Yoru]

Arrg, I hate guessing at some of these games.

I figure I'll reveal which ones of mine are which later on. Once the thread has died. Or hits 10 pages.

And to respond to your spoiler-spoilertext, yes, that is correct.

[Viin]

Since thats the only game I've actually taken all the way to the end .. Good Job Strazos!

Thanks for filling me in on all the other endings that I missed, guys.

[Strazos]

To be fair, not all of mine were games. Gotta mix it up sometimes.

[Fabricated]

*You are very tangently involved in a scientific blunder that unleashes an alien invasion on the world. You stop part of it and manage to impress someone enough that they offer you a job, and by "offer you", I mean "Force you to accept". Fade to black.

*Your boss takes you out of cold storage and tosses you 7 years ahead in time to see the hellhole you were somewhat (not really) involved in creating. You're a folk hero now, and after a lot of meandering around you topple the aliens' impossibly tall tower onto the city filled with your own people. Too bad you're on top of it when it happens. Your bossman grabs you at the last second and presumably leaves the token female you were ogling to die. Fade to black.

*Those aliens you freed from slavery 2 games ago repay the favor by giving you a vacation from your bossman, and saving the token female. Too bad shit's about ready to pop, and they unhelpfully placed you next to the source. You waste an incredible amount of time to travel 10 blocks away to catch a train. You get the ride out and shit goes boom. Fade to white.

[Kail]

* Andross is actually behind it all.  This is also the case in the sequel, and in all other games in the series, or any related series.  Andross is always behind it.  You can kill him, but he'll be back.  But, to be fair, so will your father.  And Pigma.  And Slippy, dammit.

* It turns out this was all a ruse orchestrated by the end boss of the first level to get his hands on your sword.  The chick in the bondage gear falls in love with you, because you cut her sister in half.

* You win.  Frawress victoly!

* A whole bunch of wierd shit happens that makes no fucking sense, but I guess it's supposed to tie in to Ico, or something?  Maybe?

* In the first game, it turns out that the Baron's daughter is the brigand leader.  In the second game, the king is your chocobo/lizard thing.  In the third game, nothing interesting happens.  In the fourth game, the hot peasant chick is really a vampire.  In the fifth game, it's all a plot by some stupid jackass to wake an ancient dragon which is supposed to be able to destroy the world but which you can actually pummel the crap out of with a dagger.

[Margalis]

It turns out that dude with the long sword went insane when he discovered he was a clone made out of artificially resurrected DNA from an ancient's corpse recovered by the megacorperation.

This is one of the plots I've been saving for "one day if I write a book." About a cloned person going batshit insane after finding out they are a clone. Although my first choice was an evil clone of Isaac Newton.

[Ironwood]

* It turns out that she's dead and was being impersonated by that evil AI all along.  Apparently jettisoning the greenhouse pods in the first game from an orbiting earth space station caused one of them to fly off to a nearby galaxy where the evil AI's creations survived after crashing into a planet.  You'll get to try to defeat it in another 75%+ of the game, but for now you're its puppet being dragged along by a need for cybermodules as the evil AI tries to regain control over its creations.  The couple you found radio logs from actually escapes later on... I wonder if that'll be the grounds for the third game.

Further, the evil AI has managed to implant herself into the meat of the female humans insect-like brain.  From here, only fun can happen.

Like the Sixth Day?

[Strazos]

* Press Z or R. Twice.

* Those damn Fishmen? They're actually people. Also, the guy who you helped out at the beginning of the game? He's the villain. Good thing you can one-shot him in the final battle. Oh, and make sure you recruit the killer-loli at the beginning of the game - she turns into a damn beast of a character with her comically large hammer and pigtails.

* The final boss? Dude, just use Cure. Better than a headshot.

* You were exposed to some nasty stuff when still in the womb. This means you turn into a sort of super anti-hero later in life. And that female character you've been playing as the whole game? Yeah, the anti-hero gets her in the end, Terminator 1 style. After the guy is practically undead. Gross.

* The mastermind of the entire evil complex is a giant brain in a jar. Lame.

[Nonentity]

* You wake The Sleeper up. Zone-wide messages let the server know that your guild is a bunch of assholes, and people hate you on the forums for it. Congratulations.

* Mickey uses his keyblade to shut the door to the Realm of Darkness from the inside, trapping him inside, along with Riku. Prepare for him to show up in his emo badass trenchcoat next time you see him.

[Strazos]

Fuck, you really did just spoil a game for me. 

[Signe]

Pizza (Bathroom after peeing)

Chocolate (whenever chocolate is around)

Mothballs (Closet)

Perfume (Harem)

Garlic (when Thorbast or Thorbala speak)

Leather (Boudoir)

Banana (just before winning)

[Nonentity]

Fuck, you really did just spoil a game for me. 

*Points at the thread title*

A few FF12 plot points got ruined for me by coming in here.
