Video Game Ending Syndrome

Video Game Ending Syndrome is the intense feeling of sadness that a person may experience upon completion of a video game that the person was able to really immerse themselves in. These video games often draw the user into the their story, involving the user in the characters lives, so that when something happens to the characters the user feels emotions connected with it. This type of syndrome can be experienced mid-game if say, your favorite character is killed off, however it usually only appears at the conclusion of the game, wherein the story reaches its conclusion and the feeling of sadness is created by either the events in the conclusion, or simply the fact that gameplay, and the storyline is not over. This syndrome usually lasts at maximum one day, and can be cured by the purchase of a new video game which is equally involving. There is also some evidence to suggest a similar syndrome exists with "books" however this is impossible to test since the art of reading has been lost for many years.

eagles ending

a movie that is good all the way through, but has a horrible ending.

this is due to the fact that the eagles always choke when it comes to the playoffs, which is why they always have a bad ending without a super bowl victory.

Jake: Wow, that shitty ending ruined the whole movie.
Tom: Yeah I know. What an eagles ending.
Jake: Indeed.

Alls well that ends well

The ending is all that matters
The journey to the end might have been tough but all that is overlooked once a desirable end is achieved

Training everyday took its toll on his knee but alls well that ends well
