I'm not a huge fan of FFX, but the ending was sad in a strong way. I loved the Japanese version since Yuna's sad little Thank You holds so much more than a plain old "I love you." I personally don't think there is real weight to love yous, I think they're more useful for light hearted scenes, or when used in more heavily psychological breaks :B
The end of Crisis Core is just...really heavy for me. Zack was always my favorite from the FFVII series and it was hard to watch him die. His death was almost humiliating on the surface, but he remained proud and sure throughout and it was to protect a friend, I got pretty emotional. The English version leaves some to be desired, but it's easy to find the Japanese cut so no need for me to holler.
I think some parts of FFXII made me cry, but more of me being easily emotional at some things and my unending love for XII. There was nothing for me to think of that just made me flat out sob though.
Same with FFXIII. It's my favorite game, but I think the only cry-worthy time was the end, from both sadness and bittersweet happiness.

I agree the thank you ending is more powerful of the two versions, I actually find the simplistic way she thanked him for everything better it sums up without the need of the dramatic confession because I mean it's obvious to everyone playing the game that's how they feel, so it didn't need the confession of love to really sell it because we already knew.
Sometimes a few words and the way in which they are said speaks volumes more than I love you.
As for FFXII the scene where Gabranth has to kill Drace is awful, as is the attack on that city mentioned ^ above in someone's posts, both are sad, for some reason I attached to Basche and his storyline more than the others. Though Balthier is admittedly awesome too.
