Best Death Sequences In Gaming (Cinematic or In-game).

Posted by albatross412 - July 26th, 2009


Everybody loves death. Death is the essence of the game's frustration level. Keep dying my pretties, it will please me.

Sonic: Foiled by...urgh...yet...another cheap off-screen spike pit.
Me: Mwahahaha!

Let's get down to business!

---------------

The Author's Submits:

This devilishly handsome son of a bitch brings you his favorites.

Dedede Defeated-Kirby's Dreamland
I can't feel but satisfied when you see that fat penguin get blasted out of his own home as you land the final blow.

First Stage Zero KO-Kirby's Dreamland 3
Very out of place considering Zero's massive red eye explodes out of him in a particularly and righhteously bloody scene.

Egg Viper Kamikaze-Sonic Adventure DX
A bold and desperate attempt to kill you as you did Eggman's diabolical creation. A very grotesque way of going out, with divine wind.

Yami's Death-Okami
The origin of all machines dues so non-chalantly; he just...dissapears.

Scissorman's Psychosis-Clocktower
The bells of the clocktower chime and dissorients the mad child as he falls into the tower's gears...finished for good.

Cpt. Price Death-Call Of Duty 4
The man that stood by you throughout the war, killed by the man he thought he silenced himself.

Bad Girl 1-hit Kill-No More Heroes
She may be one of the easiest bosses but if you're chopping away at her, she will fall looking helpless. Approach her she will trip you and climb on top. Sounds and looks awesome until she beats you to death with her bat.

Sonic's Death-Sonic The Hedgehog '06
For nearly one hour Sonic was dead. Impaled through the chest by Mephiles. But it was this death that brought out the true colors if the supporting characters. In the end he was revived, a bit unsatisfying.

Good Bye Prototype-Alien Hominid
So is the end if the supposedly more formidable yellow alien. I guess bulk just doesn't cut it these days.

Jess Zombified-Dead Rising
Helping you throughout your cannabalistic mall run and she too goes native, and not in a good way.

Dragoon Good-byes-Megaman X4
He only joined the the Mavericks so he could fight you as a friend. A noble boss indeed...Too bad half his body exploded.

Various Deaths-Crash Bandicoot Series
Each danger always seems to have their own animations for death. Each hilarious.

Omega Ridley's Death-Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Is Ridley really gone for good?! I can't stand a Metroid game without that pterodactyl-like thingy. Hopefully Metroid: Another M does the dragon some more justice.

Swiss Model/Her End To The Fight-Bo Nore Heroes
Travis loved this young model's views if life as she bit her own grenade. Travis gave her a befitting burial.

Bishop's Death-No More Heroes 2
Hah, the death that is the basis for the sequel. It's gonna rock my friend.

Veterans' Space:

Because they deserve their own section.

Thelightning55's Submissions:

Driving Off A Cliff-Various Games
Think about your poor car in a harmless race against others, or driving away from an enemy. All of a sudden you're hit, and you spin out of control. Imagine the look on your face as you peer out the window.

Shotgun To The Face-Various Games
What's worse than a shot to the face at point blank? Five shots to the face...that's like TEN TIMES THE SHOTS!

Crono's Death By Lavos-Chrono Trigger
In an epic scripted battle with Lavos; Lavos is about to kill everyone, when Crono rushes forward to attack Lavos! Lavos vaporizes Crono but in turn saves his friends. His death was not only heroic, but emotional landing it a spot on the list.

Explosive Crates/Capsules-Super Smash Bros. Series
As you are Brawling on any given stage, an item is bound to appear (assuming you turned them on), and there is always that one chance that item will appear. You never know how many hits it will take before it will blow, and they sometimes will get in the way. After a few hits, you better hope you don't high damage percentage because these dastardly barrels will blow you off the screen than gas prices can raise I. The Middle Atlantic States.

Death By Carbonizer Mk 16-The Conduit
The Mk-16 Carbonized literally cooks your insides, so imagine being hit by it. After you're fried through, you have no chance of survival. If you somehow do...the enemy will just shoot you.

Sniped-Various War/FPS Games
Never EVER stay in the same spot on the battlefield. Keep moving. These hidden assassins will aim right for the head, and will take you out. Now get moving soldier!

Spikes-Megaman Series
As if the games weren't hard enough without them, the developers added these in the most annoying places possible. They are slightly humorous though. When you land on one, you explode. But trust me it gets old after a while.

Falling-Various Games
Whether on purpose or accidentally off of high places can and will prove deadly. If you have full health, you will most likely survive a small jump, but when you do a bigger jump...you get a nice splat.

Blacksun256's Submissions:

Draco Cantus (Final Boss)-TheWorld Ends With You
The MOTHER OF ALL FUSION ATTACKS is what Neku needs to topple this fowl beast. Nor only does the attack animation play out amazingly, but the explosive demise of this great dragon is enough to cause the Earth's foundation to shake.

Agent Death-Crackdown
It is not so much the death that is good, but moreso the things the agency CEO says. Although it brings a smile to my face seeing my agent get taken down after he jumps off the roof of a 16-story skyscraper and fall to the ground below.

Enemy Kills-No More Heroes
Whetherit be by decapitation, getting split down the middle or any other means of mutilation by your blade, killing your enemies SCREAMS new life into the meaning "blood bath". The minute that hot plasma meets cold trembling flesh, you'll wish you would have brought an umbrella as enemies erupt in a shower of crimson-red blood. If you're not into these levels if blood and gore the game tries to make the gruesome image seem slightly comical by having some enemies cry out "AUGGGH MY SPLEEN" when killed. Whenever I hear that I can't help but hear thecwise words of Zim from the good old days of Invader Zim. "Hah you humans and your inferior organs!"

8 Bit Deaths-Mario, Sonic, Hero Klungo Saves The World, etc.
The second you touch whatever it may be that kills you; all you do is jump up and fly off-screen. The sheer simplicity of it is truly a kick in the nads.

eightball6219's Submissions:

Death Scene: #1
This is a tie between the creator of Eapture and thug of Rapture Fontaine. The scene where Ryan goes berserk where he keeps yelling "Will you...kindly", just freaky, but cool. You find out this whole time you've been under the grasp of Fontaine and them you kill your own father. Then there's Fontaine's death where he is a god taken down by a force of little sisters jabbing needles into him like something from a Saw movie. This is hands down my number one favorite.

Death Scene #2
The Carmines from Gears of War live tragic lives, much like the Ryan's brothers (from Saving Private Ryan). The first Carmine gets bitches in a classic noob mistake: he stands up out of cover. He pays for it with a pwn'ed headshit. Carmine two does a little better but dies an ancient movie death at the hands of a 60's style movie monster: a giant freaking worm. I'll give it to him, Ben Carmine lasted a lot longer than Anthony and Ben didn't get pwn'ed. He just met a cliché fate when battling monsters.

Death Scene #3
The Aprentice's fate. Anyway when you end the Force Unleashed, Galen Marek dies a terribly fate. Whether he defends the rebels or goes agtr Vader, he dies and either way it's cool. The noble way let's you see be's actually the founder of the rebels and comes close to defeating the emperor. The evil ending is worse but cool because he gets a Vader makeover (getting put into a similar suit). Also look out for the new add-one to the Gorce Unleashed. Two new levels are Hoth and Tatooine (Hoth; you fight Luke, on Tatooine; you fight Obi-wan).

Death Scene #4
Fir any of you that have seen Superjail, the ending of the show is always a huge prison fight with inmates killing eachother, monsters fighting them, or Jailbot doing his thing (killing). One episode had in an experiment of the Warden's where they put to survive in a jungle of hungry insects bigger than them. As one of the inmates sink in quicksand his last words were,"Tell my daughter I lover her". One of the inmates trying to save him says (in a seriously funny voice), "You don't have a daughter". The inmate sinks saying, "Oh yeah".

Death Scene #5
Tom Hank's in the ending of Saving Private Ryan was just awesome. He stood his ground (not much of a choice) until the end firing his sidearm at a terrifying German heavy tiger tank was just awesome.

Death Scene #6
Fir any of you who played Dawn of Way: Dark Crusades, you'll know how awesome the space marines are. Even when they lose they're freakin' cool. The entire scene where their fortress was sacked was great. Here's how it goes:

Brother Captain David Thule fighting off hordes of whatever army is sacking the base with a small force of marines to keep them back as the last transport us trying to get off all artifacts. He dies and the Aporcracy gets him off to protect the gene-seed. The last squads stay on the planet to guide the Battle Barges (in orbit). Guns to cleanse the base and all filth that is there.

The official members' submissions.

AMonkeyNamesSam's Submissions:

Large Log Through Chest-God Of War
This death made me so angry at the game...I had spent four hours in the temple of effing Pandora. I had the s**t beaten out of me by demons, skeletons, lizards, and mother trucking centuars. I finally got to the stupid box and when I opened the friggin thing, and wamhat died Ares do?! Throws a log from two miles away right through my torso...stupid mythology.

Fatality-Mortal Combat
There's no better way to finish a fight off than a nice gruesome finishing move that does one or more of the following; gouging if eyes, decapitation, burning to death, being lazered in half, hitting someone with an odd-jobber style of hat and then proceeding to cut that persons in half VERYICALLY with said headware. Nothing makes you more of a man than finishing your younger sibling and ridiculing them about not being man enough to beat you...and being (insert number of years) old is no excuse. Do you think Scorpion is going to care about your age when he's feeding you your small intestine?! That's right...cease your crying child!

Rookies' Space:

A little something for the new guys.

Chime's Submissions:

Corporal Hart's Death (Story Mode/Cinematic)-Time Splitters 2
It's just a great twist seeingHart get shot through with all the action. Provides a nice twist and it is just fantastic.

Francis' Death (No Mercy)/Falling Off-Left 4 Dead
Just listening to that scream. Who wouldn't like zombie survivors jumping off buildings.

Mehrune's Dragon-Oblivion
Even though he was just banished, he will never come back, so it's a death. The cinematic was just six and seeing a guy THAT big is worth of. Too bad for Martin though.

Jumping Off Of Dove Rocks-Oblivion
It is a great example of the physics of Oblivion, and it can be done by an adoring fan using but a bow and arrow.

Ion Cannon-Renegade
In multiplayer having a person stand still while placing an ion cannon under him.

badgerfrank10's Submissions:

Max Violence, Burst Fire-Fallout Series
Seeing limbs and chunks of meat flying off random targets was well...just great.

Shooting At The Lake From The Pier-Resident Evil 4
All those gamefaq sites about making money in the game never truly prepared you for the reprucussions of missing the fish.

Meeting Andrew Ryan-Bioshock
After finding out you were an experimental mind control slave, whose mother was a father and whose father was tyrant, you are a full grown two year old who was being commanded by a douchebag with a fake Irish accent to kill people and to top it all off, an old Korean man commanded you to kill your own dog. I'd me pretty pissed too.

Disembowel-Dead Rising
This move took friggin forever to earn, and we all know when you earned it, many falcon punch references were made (not necessarily enjoyed).

That Guy Under The Stairs-Doom 3
If you played the very begginning of Doom 3 you would remember the futile attempt by the engineer to crawl under the stairwell (or whatever that thing was) in vain as the demon followed suit. Oddly enough screams were heard, but nothing came out.

--------------------------------------
Now that's alot of ways to die! Right down to the last detail. Thanks to all members and rookies who helped make this list. A big thanks to Thelightning55 for the bitching banner. I'd also like to welcome Chime and Badgerfrank10 as official members.

Comments

so whats next?

Just enjoy the ride my friend. I'll add yours soon.

..................................i caught nothing of what you just said....sorries.....>,-,<

Of what? That poem you mean?

you wrote my spikes-mega man series, but didnt do the description.

...fuck...hold on...............FIXED!

How about this idea?
Best Video Game boss Themes ever

I kind of already did something with bosses and music. Sadly I couldn't use the idea in the first place because you're not part of the team. I have to start following the rules I made. Sorry.

It's lookin good :D

Still not done though, but I can't build on it until I get the submissions from the remaining members.

In my opinion the best death in Oblivion is when you attack Sheogorath in the Shivering Isles Expansion Pack. When you attack he teleports you incredibly high up above the Isles and drops you. It provides a death that'll not only have you screaming obscenities at your Xbox, but it gives you a great view of the Isles before you fall to your death.

THAT DEATH would certainly piss me off. Oh wait! That reminds me of another death, SWEET!

What is it?

What? What is it that you need?

You said that you thought of another death when you responded to my thoughts on what the best death in Oblivion was.

Oh, I was thinking about that one hit kill in the Bad Girl fight in No More Heroes. So fucking annoying.

My cousins have a Wii, I saw them playing No More Heroes, this guy had a belt that shot a Laser from his crotch (no homo). They would flip out whenever he killed them. XD

Haha, Destroyman is a dick (no pun intended)! It was a pretty fun fight though.

sonic games piss me the hell off

Agreed. The last levels are always so fucking diabolical.

Could you put an extra space or two between the different contributors? The list's kind of hard to read. It's little too compressed.

Also, in my submission for Enemy kills in No More Heroes, it's "crimson-red blood," not "crimson flame." If you could just fix that for me when you get the chance, I would be very grateful.

-Blacksun256

I fixed one of your submissions but I couldn't space it anymore than it already is. It just won't register it for some reason.

Woof

Ok. Thanks for the revision.

No problem.
