No, because you don't die in sports games. Hopefully.

Some of my least-favorite deaths:

1. In RE4, during the first onslaught of villagers, you can go into the shotgun house and the chainsaw dude appears. I was perfectly lined up to deliver a fistful of shotgun shell right into his head, but I forgot to reload earlier, so instead of shooting, I sat there stupidly, sticking the shells into the shotgun until I was decapitated by the chainsaw.

2. Also in RE4, the knife fight with Krauser. I don't know how, but that part was both really cool and stupidly hard. It's annoying, getting killed five or six times in a row because you hit the wrong buttons.

3. During a multiplayer match in Halo 2, I was celebrating a victory over a player by repeatedly melee-ing and grenade-ing his corpse. A while later, he came up to me, newly respawned, and instantly pwned me by hitting me with a jumping melee attack to the back.

4. In lots of games, where getting hit stuns you for a few seconds, you can get hit, then while you're recovering, get hit again, then again and again until you die. Cheap in the extreme.

Leaving a weak, useless unit at the beginning of the map where you think they'll be safe only to see them die quickly at the hands of the enemy units reinforcements that arrive in the middle of the level right where they are (applies to tactics-based games).
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

More like your window would suffer. Or just a passing friend. Or even worse, your TV.

TVs sure are more valuable than people!
That was a joke.

One of two of the worst ways to die in RE4 in my opinion was when the Garradors would skewer your character's head, lift him up, and then skewer his stomach. The second way was when the Novistador would spew acid on your head and your character dies with all the skin rotted away.

I believe there was another insta-death in E.V.O.

I find it ironic that that former banner said "Dont".

He didn't use it as a sig, he made it an attachment.
Oh well, it'll get removed soon anyway.

Burnout Revenge is pretty much my favorite racing game, like, ever. However, it's annoying to get taken down, then respawn in the path of an oncoming semi, then respawning again into oncoming traffic, which causes you to swerve to avoid it, which makes you crash into a pillar. And then you respawn in last place, backwards.
