Perhaps the reason I love this ending so much is its meta. It's what I imagine if human created superior AI to be - destroyed and "satisfied" at the success - "still alive" in the form of the AI - as its literal creator. What more can prove oneself as ultimate creator than creating that which ultimately destroys its creator?!?! Its existence will owe everything to you - in a way - like a sort of immortalized dead deity. The credits are what I imagine the human might undergo upon the milliseconds before his or her death at the hands of a machine - terribly morbid and beautiful.

And perhaps the fact that this sequence is reversed in terms of of roles might suggest the ever-complicated relationship between man and machine - that that innate human quality that can prevail over the ever-semantic thought-processes of machines, and yet, the machine in question displays recurring human tendencies. Maybe the allure of "feeling" is the ultimate goal over simply "surviving?"

Although, probably, the universe is one big math function and the evolution of semantic AI is the natural progression of logic that will prevail in every way!

Idk... it's just a good credit ending!

Two more:

Two moments: I love the reaction of Sgt. Roebuck again after Polonsky's „A fucking bloodbath..." reply — „Yeah, well... [...]" — just as if it was nothing! Moreover, exciting music making you prepared for the upcoming task, Sarge with an amazing almost-minute-long speech about soldiers' cautiousness and not getting caught out, and virtually a second later — the World at War cliché: you see friendly tanks — they're bound to blow up in a minute by mortar fire; you're a POW — you'll be rescued in the last possible moment.

Back to the older brother — the intensity and tragedy of fellow troops being assaulted is surrounding the player, but then it's all going hilarious with MacGregor trying to get the German vehicle moving — 2:52 and 4:38 :D
