Well, finished the game yesterday. I thought it was really good and I look forward to playing on multi player now but I'm just curious on how many endings there really are.

Alright, that far enough??? :p
Now your first real choice is whether or not you save her from the spider thing. Now I've pretty much come to a conclusion that if you let her die it really doesn't change anything if you go on ONE path because you'll just wind up killing her anyway.

Now if you do save her your next choice will be whether or not you cleanse yourself of Xana (sp?). If you do, great (i didn't), if you don't (like I said) you just end up killing that girl you makes you do everything (didn't have a problem with it ;))

Now...I assume whether or not you killed her, or whether or not you cleansed yourself of Xana, you still wind up in the same place, with the skull thing.

The next option your given is whether you save some guy in that temple thing were the skull is. I wasn't really sure how to but you might of had to chosen the "good" path in order to do it (like get yourself cleansed) because it mentioned something about "the light" and I just said screw it :p.

Now here comes the BIG choice. I think you can do one of three things here. You can screw your daddy and use the skull yourself. You can walk out with the skull (not sure about that one) or you can give it to your father. Like I said I'm not sure (I only did it once).

Now do a little bit of math.
and I think you get at least "6" different endings.

Depending on whether or not you cleansed yourself and didn't kill the girl (thats 2 possibilities) and what you did with the skull (another 3)

So 3x2=6?
So how many endings really are there?

I believe theres ony 4.


Spoiler alert!!!!














1: Cleansed xana and give skull to father.
2: Cleansed Xana and didnt give skull to father
3: Left xana inside you and give skull to father.
4: Left xana inside you and didnt give skull to father.

But the endings pretty much look the same except for whether you have Xana or
"I forget her name" beside you in the cutscenes.

And i believe if you save the guy in the temple , he fights along side you for awhile, but he has no bearing on the endings.



BTW: GREAT GAME.....VERY VERY VERY UNDERRATED!
And thats a shame, i thought it was one of the best releases this year.
