Yes, there are many, many ways to die in a game, from falling into pits of lava, from losing your HP, or getting gunned down, but what are the worst or wierdest ways to die in video games? For me, it's the obsene mortalities from Mortal Kombat, what are yours?

What's happeneing in this screenshot of TEM's is that I had drowned in WoW.

I am a druid and I have won the fishing tournament and I happened to even be carrying potions of underwater breathing.

This means that I had at least three ways to have infinite underwater breath, and I forgot about all of them in my pursuit of some vile Horde member.

It was horrible.

Halo 2:
-Getting beat down when you have the sword
-Losing a point-blank sniper fight
-Getting stuck (with a plasma grenade)

Mario and other platformers:
-Misjudging a gap (ARGH)

Guitar Hero:
-99% complete (freaking Bark at the Moon Expert mode)

Super Mario Bros.: Having gotten every coin in the last x-3 level, and then dying right before picking up the 1-Up that you can subsequently get in the next x-1 level. Or dying after passing the halfway point in an x-3 level, eliminating your chance to get every coin. :(
WarioWare: Doing something stupid and losing an easy game right after getting a 1-Up from a boss stage.
Wii Sports: Not using the wrist strap.
All your dreeeeeeams begiiin to shatterrrrrr~
It's YOUR problem!

How about running out of energy, getting hit, spinning wildly out of control, flying off of the edge, and hurtling into the ground where a massive explosion happens.  (Actually it looks kinda cool.)  Of course, there's also those rays of death on Quick Man's level in Mega Man 2....

EclipedMoon, what game is that from?

One of the worst ways I've died in a game was losing to Huff N. Puff, which was, according to me, the hardest boss in the game! I lost to him when all I needed was 10 HP to beat him, and I didn't have that Super Shroom. Yes, one of the worst ways to die because that boss was freakin hard!

According to me, too. XP Stupid cloud guy... I still haven't beat him!

Being pwned by an overly powerful boss (Eg: Zone 5 in Sonic Advance 3).

Getting killed by a Goomba.

There's always getting hit by some tiny little object and then flying backwards in a bloody mess in a lot of Castlevania games.
That was a joke.

Running out of time, the wierdest way to die, or the suicide code!
