Favourite death animation of a player character
« on: October 17, 2007, 05:26:05 AM »
There's ways to die in every game, what's your favourite player death?


I would probably go for PC Genjin with his bulging eyes and foaming at the mouth.

Keith Courage when not in the power suit.  That's how I am going to die.

Cool thread!  :dance:

Certainly not Legendary Axe II.  :P He looks ridiculous when he dies/gets hit.

I would have have to say Bonk and Dungeon Explorer. I love how quick and to the point you die in Dungeon Explorer.

ZAP!!

Richter Belmont in Dracula X. I want to disintegrate into a pressurized blood mist when I die, too.

Granted, but what about a favorite death that you dealt out in a multi-player game?

Damn!  You probably don't have one of them either, since nobody would dare challenge your skillz.  Well, I guess that you could always pick one out from screen shots that us weak losers have made of our sweet release.

I'm going to go with sonic the hedgehog. He puts his hands up in the air as if he is being robbed, and then you hear a strange boner popping noise, lmao.

Beyond Shadowgate for the win.

This game has multiple death scenes.  And they are all awesome!!   My fav would have to be trying to grasp the sword out of the muck in the depths of the woods without the gauntlets to protect your hands...  Just try it! 




have fun getting the screen clean!

Huh? What is this PC Genjin thing you speak of? Anyways, I like the death scene in Bonk's Adventure!  :mrgreen:

I love the "death" scene in Devil's Crush where your ball falls down a hole topped with a Skeleton laughing! Speaking of which, Blodia has a pretty cool death scene too actually!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).
