Early on in my gaming life I think that one of the best gaming endings there was had to have been the ending to Super Metroid. The fight against mother brain and then the timed escape to get off the planet with the heart pounding music was a thing of beauty. That's why the ending of Halo CE felt so right to me. It had some heart pumping nostalgia! If you've never played Super Metroid, please go watch one of the videos on youtube showing the last fight and escape.

Besides the original Halo, I loved the ending to Reach. That last fight and inevitable death followed by Halsey's voice over was a perfect ending. It hit on the idea that your death was not in vain and that you helped to save humanity even though you were not there to witness it yourself.
