deaf in videogames is nothing new but
sometimes it can be pretty harsh you are
making a fairy tale
to keep you alive welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
brutal video game deaths the moment I’ve
been waiting for ranging from the
mediums distant past to the present day
we found those deaths in gaming that
made us both gape in awe and cringe and
sympathy we’re limiting the list to one
death per game per franchise as well as
excluding random deaths of generic
enemies units or mobs though player
determined deaths do qualify goodbye my
old friend thanks for all the advice
number 10 Benjamin carmine Gears of War
2 Delta Squad has seen some shit midway
through Gears of War 2 the team gets
swallowed by a giant rift worm forcing
them to track through its innards
unfortunately while the rest of Delta
Squad managed to survive the whole being
smaller thing
carmine falls out of the helicopter
amidst the confusion that would probably
be bad enough but by the time Delta
Squad find him literally in the belly of
the beast Carmine’s had his own belly
chewed out by ravenous parasites man
that name is just cursed number nine
Adam Sheppard Silent Hill Homecoming
it’s okay I don’t blame you leave it to
Pyramid Head to suddenly make things
very unpleasant you need to get out of
here
in the midst of apologizing to his son
Alex family patriarch Adam Sheppard has
little time to speak his piece before
his body is gruesomely bisected by the
fearsome pyramid head while we don’t see
the act in progress
the look on Alex’s face says it all and
then we get to see Adam’s remains in all
their dubious glory Oh wonderful
number eight David we sense that this
might be overkill but then again the
situation didn’t exactly call for a
light touch ain’t no shame in it Ellie a
teenage survivor has just spent several
minutes dodging and fighting off manic
survivor David before he pins her down
no I do in a desperate bid Ellie manages
to reach a nearby machete and take a
swipe at her aggressor giving her the
brief moment to take the upper hand and
take it she does number seven
Marcello Bronco Max Payne 3
many things can be said about Marcello
Bronco but deserving of a brutal death
isn’t one of them yeah that’s how this
scene is set when our hero Max Payne
tries to save Marcello the craaaap retro
military factions leader Milo Rago has
the young mr. Bronco stuck in a stack of
tires which he sets on fire it’s a
senseless moment of violence though it
provides max with an excuse to exact
equally brutal revenge against
Marcello’s killer number 6
Vladimir Makarov call of duty modern
warfare 3 5 a fitting end for a
tyrannical leader in the final mission
of modern warfare 3 former soldiers
captain price and Yuri conduct a raid on
Makarov hideout in Dubai unfortunately
for Yuri Makarov is prepared executing
him in front of price
price does not take this well compelled
by rage he beats Makarov into submission
before tying a noose around his neck and
smashing a window out from under them
the two men plummet but only one man
lives to fight another day
harsh as it may seem it pales in
comparison to the immense human
suffering Makarov has caused
number five deed the walking dead 400
days you got sure gang up on me a lot
lately honey that ain’t true tell me one
time you sided with me in the last week
the last month she wasn’t exactly the
nicest lady but d probably didn’t
deserve this one of the stories in 400
days focuses on Bonnie a recovering drug
addict traveling with married couple
Leland in deep clutter you two up to
when Bonnie is separated from the two
during a daring escape she flees into a
cornfield and prepares to fight her
pursuers with a piece of rebar as her
weapon
sadly Bonnie misjudges her target and
it’s D that ends up taking a blow to the
head for slow and painful passing
complete with the harsh final words for
Bonnie make it all the more brutal you
did you killed me you killed me number
four holiday fear extraction point
oh man that went on for a bit Douglas
holiday leader of the Delta Force unit
working with the first encounter assault
recon team probably wasn’t expecting to
get assaulted by a ghost
and yet that’s exactly what happens as
Holliday is surrounded quickly by demon
like entities and thrown about like a
rag doll what’s unsettling is how call
me is throughout the extended sequence
even as his Linzer twisted in his bodies
bragged about although we’re morbidly
impressed by the explosive conclusion
it’s still a terrible way to go
number three Andrew Ryan
Bioshock would you kindly would you
kindly would you kindly end the
brutality you as the voiceless hero Jack
are sent to deal with Andrew Ryan the
co-founder of the underwater city of
Rapture powerful phrase familiar phrase
however Ryan is one step ahead of you
delivering not only a speech but also
one of the best twists in videogame
history the man chooses a slave obeys
what results is a case of swift yet
harsh violence as Jack beats Ryan to
death with his own Golf Club there’s no
way to stop it no matter of controlling
Jack’s actions in this scene leaving us
as a witness to the end of an age a
slave obeys number two melina mortal
kombat x take her away in a game that
gives you intimate control over the
brutal violence you enact upon your
enemies it makes sense that any death
that you don’t control would be
especially over-the-top finish me did
join my father at this point in the
single-player campaign Molina is
captured by Kotal Kahn I give the
homeowner to my will the First Minister
being the Emperor of Outworld means you
have to make some tough choices so Kahn
orders his second-in-command Bora to
execute Molina with what only can be
described as the ultimate kiss of death
fun fact that’s not acid eroding
Molina’s face it’s actually hundreds of
tiny flesh-eating insects
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
number one helios god of war 3 I see
once saved me from madness when Kratos
gets angry
it’s easy to lose your head sorry we
just had to do it for your power up
until this point Kratos has been
unflinchingly brutal in his massacre of
the entire Greek pantheon now setting
his sights on the Sun God Kratos takes
his time to beat Helios into submission
and then proceeds to slowly and
painfully tear his head off
it’s neither quick nor is it pretty as
we witness every bit of flesh and muscle
slowly tear free under Kratos his meaty
hands
do you agree with our list and you think
we have a choice what the deal game
character’s death feels brutal to you
