Sad endings always make me cry

I just finished FALLOUT: New Vegas-Dead Money yesterday. What a sad ending, and that song "Begin" Again" is repeating in my head. It's so crazy. These people lived and died a century before The Courier showed up, and the only evidence of their existence is the computer entries that clue your character into the whole story. A story of misplaced love and betrayal. Hats off to the writers and developers of this game. They sucked me in and have now fucked up my head with this very sad story. I was weeping today at work just thinking about Vera Keyes' hologram standing alone in the lobby of the Sierra Madre, with her one and only hit playing though the lobby loudspeakers.
