Seven Tear-Jerking Games That Have Made Me Cry

Sometimes moments in video games are sadder than what happens in real life.

5.)Final Fantasy VIII

Final Fantasy VIII was probably the first RPG that I ever played. It was as long as four discs on the PlayStation and that was more than enough time for me to get to know the characters.

It probably didn't help that Nobuo Uematsu and Faye Wrong composed and performed such a beautiful soundtrack to this game. It wasn't just the love story that made me cry like a baby, but it was also witnessing the generally poignant moments in the game. The closing scenes with "Eyes on Me" playing in the background was the moment when tears started falling. It was a long game, but very rewarding in the end.

Nowadays, I think I mostly feel sad that this game will never be as popular as VII.
