Anyone else remember Namco's Playstation platformer, Klonoa: Door to the Phantomile, or it's PS2 sequel Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil? I know the first Klonoa got redone for the Wii, so I'm sure it'll ring some kind of a bell, although I'm not sure how many people have ever played it. Admittedly the Wii version's cutscenes somehow managed to look worse than the original PSX release.

In any case, I was just thinking back to what a great twist end both games had and was wondering if anyone else remembers any games with a genuine twist end. I don't mean just the predictable subversion of the obvious cliches either; I mean a truly out of blue/left field/thin air, no one saw it coming, kind of plot twist.

As a kid, the first Klonoa game really did just leave me confused and depressed when I first finished it and to this day the final cut-scene still manages to be gut-wrenching.
