10 Video Game Endings That Were Profoundly Insulting

5. Mad Max

2015's Mad Max is actually a surprisingly fantastic game - a mix of brutal car combat, visceral melee brawls and the occasional survival aspect come together pretty nicely to form quite the underrated gem. But that ending... man, maybe Max would've been better off not tracking down Scrotus, after all.

Coming after tens of hours of gameplay - or far longer if you embarked on any number of side quests - you finally chase down the violent warlord and ram his convoy off the beaten path, leaving him dangling over the edge of a cliff.

It's in this moment that Max decides not only to ram Scrotus off the cliff edge - thereby destroying the Magnum Opus i.e. the car you've literally been upgrading for the game's runtime - but also kills Chumbucket, your helper-character who's been nothing but friendly and, well, helpful, for the entire game.

With Chumbucket on the hood of the car and the Opus slamming into Scrotus' ride, the latter does emerge for one last boss fight, but during that final bout, chances are you were too deflated to care.
