*SPOILER* Was I the only person who got emotional during the campaign?

**Fight4Humanity** · 09-24-2011, 02:56 AM

The Brothers to the end chapter made my eyes tear up...I couldn't help but want to cry it was just so sad. Did anyone else feel this way?

**SevenStorms** · 09-24-2011, 03:01 AM

yep..I've been playing as him since gears 1..and never in my 10 years of gaming have i been upset in a cutscene..and that one..i was heartbroken lol

**Elchamuco** · 09-24-2011, 03:01 AM

you are not alone there once the mad world theme kicked in i choked up it was really hard for me to watch dom suffered so much but he knew there was no other way

RIP Dominic Santiago you are now at home with Maria Benedicto and Silvia.

**Fight4Humanity** · 09-24-2011, 03:04 AM

Same here bro. It was Awful

And the Mad World theme made it even sadder...I was so upset but it was the only way. By far the greatest death seen I've ever seen in anything. Ever.

Agreed..i even got that song on my phone now..DOM was my fav from any other game i have played..he topped them all and will continue to be him till my xbox blows up, now whenever i play campaign..i'm playing that song through the mic.

**ExtremeDieHardd** · 09-24-2011, 03:29 AM

RIP ...Dom

**rusticangelic** · 09-24-2011, 04:17 AM

I cried like a child during that scene, you weren't alone

**Olliezilla** · 09-24-2011, 05:58 AM

I don't wanna sound mean or anything, but who cries during a video game... :S

**xLOHx wildfire** · 09-24-2011, 11:02 AM

I felt bad. I wanted to feel sad, but I somehow didn't feel that emotional. I got loads of goosebumps where the truck hit the station.

**JacktheBlack** · 09-24-2011, 11:04 AM

I was actually disappointed in the scene

I'd seen it coming from a mile away from the chapter name and plus every single troll in the world all ready spoiled it for me. But I'd felt the Adam Fenix death scene had more emotion in it.

Especially when all Marcus caught was Adam's COG tag, beautifully done. However I did kinda expect Adam to die at some heroic point.

Yeah that was beyond well done.

**lBlest** · 09-24-2011, 11:46 AM

i laughed and guessed what was about to happen but my m8 was pooring his eyes out. Never been a fan of dom only thing liked about him was his maria story line.

**lBlest** · 09-24-2011, 11:48 AM

was any 1 over joyed when they seen that clay carmine was alive I was.

This is similar to what happened with me.

**Undecided** · 09-24-2011, 12:41 PM

I cried because he risked his live to save his buds. Makes me wish in the end of campaign he saw Marcus stab the queen.

**WWZSniper87** · 09-24-2011, 02:06 PM

I got a little choked up but didn't have any tears come down the face.

The Mad World music made that scene, though.

**MrAzzy** · 09-24-2011, 02:15 PM

I may of watered up when Dom died.

Nah forget that; PIMPS DON'T CRY!

**Miran Trescu** · 09-24-2011, 06:19 PM

The part of that cutscene that actually hit me the hardest was when Dom said "Never expected it to end like this, huh Maria?" and does this little reassuring laugh to himself before while he's hitting the gas. Chills...

**CaptainSlayer** · 09-24-2011, 07:57 PM

Not even close. I had tears come to my eyes when Dom spoke with Maria at the grave site, I was full blown crying during his death. My girlfriend cried right beside me. It killed me inside.

**RAAM582** · 09-24-2011, 08:01 PM

I was really sad when Dom and Adam died, and when Marcus was yelling at Griffin.

**gears3betaomg** · 09-24-2011, 08:05 PM

Yes i have been playing since gears of war 1, The campaign really upset my in some parts i loved how at the end you see Carmine get up and it says grub killer on his Armour... i thought this was an awesome scene

**FreakkoRock** · 09-24-2011, 10:12 PM

i really felt bad for marcus........i mean who cares of anya??

also the most heroic death

**cae37** · 09-25-2011, 01:55 PM

Not gonna lie, but Dom's death is probably the saddest moment for me in my gaming history. Just knowing his background of having lost everyone he loved and having to have killed his own wife to end her suffering made it even worse for me. When the Mad World song started I nearly started crying. It got me that bad.

**Optimus Healey** · 09-25-2011, 02:05 PM

When Marcus tells Adam that's a choker " hes gone dad ... Dom's gone"

**DJRexxar** · 09-25-2011, 02:06 PM

I was so upset I scraemed and yelled at him though he was a video game character then I wanted to cry. I didin't play the campaign until today.

**normajean19** · 09-25-2011, 04:20 PM

Yes. I've played that chapter twice and teared up both times.

**zzhobbit** · 09-25-2011, 06:31 PM

Dom's last lines are actually amazing in terms of how much emotion are in them, "Jump will you? Do it!" is when the tears started and Anya trying to get Marcus up afterwards, some amazing and emotional voice acting, made the scene. Baird and Cole's reactions brought it all back, especially how quiet Baird got "Oh f**k, no." made my stomach drop, so yes I most definitly got emotional.

**King Myrrah** · 09-25-2011, 06:36 PM

Dom's death was a gut punch. But it was no Big Boss.
*puts on mega flame suit

**zzhobbit** · 09-25-2011, 06:49 PM

Whatchu you talkin bout Willis?

**AnthonyLucas86** · 09-25-2011, 06:53 PM

This scene was probably the best put together in game cinematic i have ever witnessed in a video game. All in all the whole story was very well written and was filled with emotion and drama from coles trashball memories to doms death and the torment marcus felt after doms departure. Adams death and also the death of Myrrah at the end considering she was the bad guy it was filled with emotion and anger.

I have to say hats off to Epic Games i played the campaign from gears 1 to 3 and it was one hell of a ride.

**calmcantey75** · 09-25-2011, 08:49 PM

Yeah. I teared up. Couldn't help it. I love GOW and have come to really care about these guys since '06 when it came out, and I'll never forget the experience of playing Gears for the first time. RIP Dom.

**Yuri Baird** · 09-25-2011, 09:05 PM

im pretty sure it got all of us by surpise

**Nineteenth Hour** · 09-25-2011, 09:19 PM

Every time I watch that cutscene I cry. Can't help it. It's the combination of "Never thought it would end like this, huh Maria?" and "Goddamit let go of me. I've got to get him out of there!"

Waterworks every time. They are manly tears of course.

**iiMBillyMays** · 09-25-2011, 09:45 PM

I teared up a bit and i am not emotional when it comes to video games :'(

**Trojan Cover** · 09-25-2011, 09:52 PM

Not at all, Dom's death was really emotional, as was Marcus's last moments with his father.

**MarketStoner** · 09-25-2011, 10:15 PM

it's the damn piano music that pushed it over the edge for me... but, I was playing the game with my adult son... so crying like a girl was out of the question... ='{

**Jonez0wnz** · 09-26-2011, 12:33 AM

Was kinda sad.

After playing so many games and not actually seeing proof that he died, I didn't really know what to think.

Oh hai Capt Price.

**TenaciousTom** · 09-26-2011, 09:45 AM

It was insanly sad did get abit teary but had to suck it up as I was playing it on 4 player co-op with my mates though we were all silent for abit afterwards till they knew I dealt with it well.
Playing as Dom from the start made me feel really connected to him and all the **** he had been through but to make it worse the bit which leads up to the cutscene in the gameplay fight I was actually seperated from the others as I was fighting off the lambent attacking from the back plus I was running out of ammo and was even slow to try and cross the bridge. Still he went out like a boss couln't have asked for a more epic way for Dom to die.
