deaf in video games is nothing new but
sometimes it can be pretty harsh you are
making it very tape to keep you alive
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we'll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten 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 [ __ ] 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 hole being swallowed 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 Shepard 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 Shepherd 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 Adams 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
they 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 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 yep that's how this scene is set
when our hero Max Payne tries to save
Marcello the crotch up 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 six
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 what are 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 her 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 limbs are twisted in his body is
dragged 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 pilots 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
and missing 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 then
join my father at this point in the
single-player campaign Molina is
captured by Kotal Kahn I give the
homeowner to my movie First Minister
being the Emperor of Outworld means you
have to make some tough choices so Kahn
orders his second-in-command
Devorah 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 someone
saved me from madness when Kratos get
too 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
muscles slowly tear free under Kratos
his meaty hands
[Applause]
