The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Worst Ways to Die in a Game

Spartanguy88: I don't need to see those videos for I have played the game and have seen the deaths for myself.  Every criminal in Arkaham wants Batman Dead!  So of course they would kill him in the most grusome and satisfying way possible.

The one that really takes the cake here would be him dying during the times Scarecrow has him in a nightmare.  He not only goes through his worst memories, but can't regain his mind.  It's just horrible dying that way.  Scarecrow is truly EVIL!

It's not quite a death, but-any kart racer-getting hit or accidentally driving into your OWN powerup.

Getting your head lobbed off by a chainsaw weilding "zombie" both in Resident Evil 4 and 5

Or in Fallout 3, shooting your enemy and their limbs randomly explode :lol:

Or even in the classic Prince of Persia game, sliced in half by the slicing trap....or the spikes on the floor!

And of course any fatality in the Mortal Kombat games :lol: I mean come on, getting your spine ripped out! How can that not be one of the worst ways to die?

I think I now have a new champion in Spartanguy88's Worst Way to Die.

EDIT: But during the final Mission any combination of your squad could die if you don't gain their loyalty or if you don't use the right people for certain tasks. SPOILERS.

Dying because of a Gumba in any Mario Game is always terrible... But hilarious at the same time :lol

I think one of the worst ways to die in a Game is in "Until Dawn". If you make wrong decisions, the characters may be killed by 'Wendigos' brutally. It's a Survival Horror game in which the player has to make decisions which influence the story. If the character makes every decisions right, every character survives. But if the player makes too much wrong decisions, every character may die

Literally anything that you can die from in Oregon Trail.  Take your pick: Drowning, starvation, thirst, horrible diseases, rattlesnake bites, crushed by a falling wagon...  Dysentery seems to be the most infamous because of the internet meme.  If you don't know what dysentery actually is, google it.  It's not a pleasant way to go.  At all.

Oh, you can also randomly get eaten by bears and cougars during the hunting mini game.  That's right.  Red Dead Redemption may have made getting cougar'd infamous but Oregon Trail invented it.
