Video Games that tore your heart?

Trauma Team was really sad. If anyone here wants to know what happens,

What's really sad that happens- well, there are a LOT of sad things. There's a girl that tries to commit suicide (off-screen), there are murder weapons that 8 year olds accidentally find, which, later in the game, her parents DIE from a bomb in a teddy bear, and don't even get me started on how Maria realizes she needs help from other people, or when we find out that CR-SO1's father killed his daughter for being dangerous, or when Naomi gets Twisted Rosalia and it heals her other disease and she can raise the little 8 year old girl (Alyssa) I mentioned earlier and she hugs her and it's just OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
The ending of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time made me cry my eyes out for an hour.
 
There are a few games that brought tears to my eyes, but the ones that really made me cry would be "Professor Layton and the Unwound Future" and "Virtue's Last Reward; Luna Ending".
 
The Walking Dead: Season Two is already ****ing with my heart, and I haven't even finished episode 2. D:
 
FFX, Professor Layton: UF, Phoenix Wright: T&T (that last case QQ), Mother 3. ;___;

I just started The Last of Us Remastered, and Sarah's death got to me. Didn't make me cry, but it tugged at my heart strings
 
I haven't really played a heart-wrenching game in a while. I guess I would have to say the pokemon mystery dungeon series when you are turned back into a human and then your partner cries. That is the only game I've ever cried over and that was when I was like 6. I guess Danganronpa was kind of heart wrenching more recently, especially when your favorites die.
 
First and foremost is NieR. I have never ever experienced a game with such a desolate lack of hope. It's beautiful and amazing and I cannot recommend it enough! Every one of the 4 endings destroys your heart in a different, masterful way XD

Also:
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
No. Just do not. The end with the grave and the whole ghost thing just stop it. You've ruined my life.

completely. Past the arc with the giant and giantess the game gets so devoid of happiness that I was totally shocked.

Transistor really got to me, especially the end.

I'll also second everyone else who mentioned PL and the Unwound Future as well.

Another mention would be Persona 3; it didn't really destroy my heart per se but it was just SO DARK all around that it unnerved me and I couldn't finish it ><

At the end of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (so yeah, spoilers!) seeing The King of Red Lions die was kinda sad ):
 
Narcissu 1st & 2nd. Go play it all of you who have Steam or wherever else you can it. So sad.

And planetarian~the reverie of a little planet~ A really good story.. the characters are amazing and whoever wrote it got some skills. The eding just.. ;_;
 
My animals dying in my Harvest moon games make me cry. I know its stupid but I get really attached to them. Can't even sell them to avoid their death.(ends up feeling guilty for abandoning pixel animals)
