Fucking Half Life...

 

[Tunavi]

Bulletstorm

 

[Tansut]

Another World

Lesteeeeeeeeer!!

 

[dab0ne]

RAGE... I think?

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Not canon bro

 

[DrunkShogun]

For me it's tactics orge. The game wraps up somewhat but there's so many unresolved threads. Such a shame tactics orge wasn't as successful as it should have been.

Kotor II: The Sith Lords.

Don't say The Old Republic.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Not canon bro

Eric Chahi is just being a bit of a dick just because the game flopped. I believe it is canon. At least as much canon as we will get.

 

[Crub]

I doubt D4 is going to get more episodes.

It wasn't even a proper cliff hanger, it was just cut short at what seemed to be the half-way point.

 

[Drencrom]

Half-Life 2: Episode 2 ends literally with an cliffhanger and not some conclusive but open-ended ending like most games that are mentioned here.

 

[Brerlappin]

Darksiders 1 the thread

 

[Baron_Calamity]

RAGE... I think?

Good question. I finished Rage but I don't remember if it had an ending.

 

[RoadHazard]

Portal 2

Not really? The universe obviously has more stories to tell (or would, if Valve hadn't morphed into a digital hat making company), but that one is done. Inconclusive, perhaps, but done.

 

[Endo Punk]

For those saying The Order, that whole game was basically set up for 2 and because of it's mediocrity it won't come.

It doesn't deserve one either. The cliffhanger ending was not earned because the story/experience was wholly unsatisfying throughout. GOWII for example, cliffhanger of course but incredibly enjoyable adventure, you fought the guy who wronged you but he got away. You still get a feeling of satisfaction and the need to see how it continues from there.

The need for a sequel to 1886 doesn't come from the fact that the game was fantastic but because people were left hanging, blueballed. It has nothing to do with the games quality but everything to do with the OCD nature of story focused gamers.

Xenosaga Episode 3

I mean it ended perfectly, however it's still a cliff hanger because we never got to Lost Jerusalem. That will forever make me sad.

 

[CAR105 3]

Darksiders
We still don't know what happened after the 4 horsemen were called.

Legacy of Kain: Defiance
After Kain temporarily defeated the Elder God and got the purified Soul Reaver we don't really know how the current timeline got affected by it.

There was a very well fanmade video that gave a possible explanation of what could have happened after Defiance. And there was a another LoK game in development but it was cancelled in development.

 

[Radius]

Primal (PS2)

Sony studios really should get their sequels greenlighted before ending a game on a cliffhanger.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Xenosaga Episode 3

I mean it ended perfectly, however it's still a cliff hanger because we never got to Lost Jerusalem. That will forever make me sad.

Xenogears' cliffhanger is even worse. The whole basis of Xenogears -- all thousands of years of it -- is that Deus is dead set on returning to Earth and will do whatever it takes to achieve this. Then at the end of the game, we still don't know why it wanted that so desperately.

 

[Carmelozi]

(Darksiders)

Yeah, but it will come... someday.

 

[Jack Random]

If Anachronix is my #1, that's my #2, though I think a Freespace 3 has a very slightly larger chance of happening than Anachronox 2 does.

i dont know if i would want whatever is left of interplay trying to make a freespace game

 

[Wilsongt]

Golden Sun 3.

Stop making Camelot work on your sports titles, Nintendo.

 

[Reedirect]

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway.

 

[wild wild rice]

I doubt Resistance was supposed to end the way it did.

 

[TetraGenesis]

Jawmuncher, where are you?

Dino Crisis 2 is the only one to stick with me to this day.

 

[JeffZero]

I actually felt that Xenosaga was really cut off in the end, and proper ending is still somewhere in the darkness of Takahashis mind.

That's because you're completely correct

 

[Wilsongt]

Does not visiting

Spoiler

Harmonia

yet in Suikoden count?

Let it go...

[Bornstellar]

i did.

advent rising

This one still hurts.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

RAGE... I think?

That was definitely a cliffhanger. An awful one, too.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I actually made a similar thread about this here

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=974654&highlight

Dante's Inferno
Vanquish
The Darkness 2
Bulletstorm

The list just goes on...its even worse when they literally have a big fat 'to be continued' screen on there

 

[KevinCow]

(Darksiders)

Fuuuuuuuck what an awesome ending.

Nordic Games pls.

 

[Badpsychometry]

Advent Rising was the biggest cliffhanger for me. I really enjoyed that game.

 

[Lunar15]

I don't care that much, but Golden Sun 3 didn't just end on a cliffhanger, the party actually completely disregarded the main plot point at the beginning, did something entirely unrelated, then came back and were like "oh shit that's right, the plot!" Then it ends.

 

[Jito]

RAGE... I think?

RAGE didn't even have the decency to end on a cliffhanger, it just ends at what feels like the start of the games final act.

 

[Banzai]

Kya: Dark Lineage. One of the PS2's hidden gems. So hidden in fact it never got a sequel.
I still replay this one from time to time. Up there with Jak & Daxter, Sly and Ratchet & Clank for me.

 

[Poltergust]

If you asked this like a year ago I would've said Virtue's Last Reward.

Thank goodness for Zero Time Dilemma. 2015 really was the year of dreams.

 

[SargerusBR]

Devil May Cry 2

Spoiler

Dante gets trapped in Hell

 

[TheHater]

From what I played
God of war 3
Avent Rising
Darksiders


I don't remember the others name but there is more.

 

[The Lamonster]

Half-Life is EASILY the worst offender here and Valve's silence on the matter and outright dropping the series has made me lose a lot of respect for them as a developer.

 

[Orochinagis]

Dark Souls 1, Dark Souls 2. (and possibly Dark Souls 3)

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Does Mega Man in general count? We never learned what exactly happened between the Mega Man series and the Mega Man X series.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

(Darksiders)

;_; i cry everytiem

 

[eso76]

I think Psy-Ops (?) ended with the bad guy just flying away or something?

Yup.
And it even said:" to be continued... "

 

[Zojirushi]

Fucking Half Life threads. They're everywhere.

 

[Mendax]

AC Unity if these nasty rumors are true

And God of War 3

 

[Matsukaze]

Baldur's Gate 2: Dark Alliance had some ridiculous cliffhanger but nobody longed for a third game and Champions of Norrath basically replaced it.

Came here to say Dark Alliance 2. That cliffhanger was just so bizarre; it made no sense for (spoilers nobody cares about)

Spoiler

Mulhorand to be involved in Mordoc's rise to power and his attack on Baldur's Gate

.

 

[blacklotus]

XIII

Exactly my first thought.

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

I just watched the ending to Darksiders again. Still gives me awesome chills.

I hope Darksiders gets added to BC on the Xbox One or a remastered version comes out. The game was so good.

I just purchased a copy of the Deathinitive Edition for the XBO. Only cost $21. Amazon.

 

[cyborgnumberblue]

Devil May Cry 2

Spoiler

Dante gets trapped in Hell

Hmmm... forgot about this ending.

We can assume he gets out since in DMC 4 he's visibly aged, I guess?

I believe that's the only one that takes place after 2. Canonically, it's 3>1>2>4, I think.

 

[Rafavert]

Golden Sun 3.

Stop making Camelot work on your sports titles, Nintendo.

I still hold out hope for a new Golden Sun that closes out the cliffhanger from Dark Dawn.

Golden sun for the DS. Doesn't matter tho, they ruined what made the first games great.

This! Give us Golden Sun 4! Down with the sports titles! *grabs pitchfork*
I had hopes we'd get Isaac in Smash and reinvigorate the series, but alas.
Hopefully Isaac had a relevant number of votes in ballot and Nintendo reconsiders that sequel. On NX. launch.
