Being interrupted during the ending of a game.

Have you ever had a roommate or girlfriend walk in right as you were getting to the end of a game?  I'm not talking about the last couple minutes, but the absolute last cutscene which wraps everything up.  This happened to me recently while finishing Mass Effect 2, when my roommate came home from work.  Because our TV is in the living room, I began asking him how his day was and blah blah blah, ALL WHILE THE LAST CUTSCENE WAS PLAYING.  I couldn't press start because that would just skip everything entirely, so instead I was chatting away while my Shepard was onscreen saving the galaxy.  This drives me nuts and I feel like it's happened to me a number of times, also recently while playing Bioshock 2.  So, I was just wondering if this is just a case of bad luck or if this is something that happens to you guys too. 

sounds like your fault. its a roomate they can deal with a few minutes of shut up time so u can see something u spent umpteen hours to complete. if it had been a girlfriend i woulda just said to go make me a sandwich.

Guide button. 
 
Besides, it's just a game. Load up your last save if it bothers you that much.

Damn!  Totally forgot about the magical guide button.

Yeah, I've been grateful for the ability to pause the cutscenes in FFXIII. 

You could've just used stasis on your roommate.

Doesn't the Home button freeze everything on the PS3 and X360?

You begang asking him how his day was? 
Then you're the idiot! :P You should have just kept your damn mouth shut and watched it and then given a damn about Mr. random-person-coming-home

I got to the end of MGS 1 and was being told to come to dinner but I had already invested enough time in watching it and I didn't want to risk re-loading a save. 

A girlfriend of mine was making jokes about and during the beautiful SotC ending... 
She didn't understand why I was not happy with her.

Guide button is perfect for when someone comes home.

I believe I was interrupted during the end credits of my third playthrough of Mass Effect 1, and in the cutscene before the final boss in Persona 4, but since most of my game-playin' is done in my room, I rarely get interrupted during key points of a game.

Uni fire alarm went of during the end to mass effect 2

Yup, it always seems to happen to me. Someone always wants something, just as you finish it off.

Guide button! BOOOM! It saves the world all the time.

Phones never get answered when I'm watching a cut scene, and if my someone interrupts, I just tell them to wait, no big deal really.

Not true.  There are tons of games that continue doing what they're doing, even with a press on the guide button. "

it seems to happen to me a lot also. it seems to happen all the time i beat a game lol. i know how u feel about that kind of stuff.

It really shouldn't happen with a roommate. Explain to your roommate the concept of video games cinemas and how they often can't interrupted. It should only happen with people that really don't play video games. When I was a kid and my mom used to interrupt me I told her about in-game cinemas and if she interrupted me during one all I said was 'cinema' and she knew. Good system. If my brother's playing Mass Effect (or any BioWare game) and there a dialogue sequence happening I won't say anything until a choice screen comes up and he does the same.
