Favourite Game Over Screen

[WhiteFangofWhoa]

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Who knew Alucard had so much blood in him? A rather sinister laugh follows- 'Let us go out this evening for pleasure. The night is still young.'

Also I recently stumbled upon a playthrough of an old Star Trek game focusing on the Borg and Q- I think they spent more effort on creative game over scenes than the rest of the game- some of them are even multi-branched!

CoD 4. I love the sayings and quotes.

The Ninja Gaiden 2 game over.

It's a refreshing pause in monotonous button smashing.

House of the dead. If you die You spin around for a while then just say "Oh no". Always cracks me up.

 

[xHipaboo420x]

Metal Gear Solid 2 'Fission Mailed'.

But in all seriousness, probably Resident Evil 2; it was kinda chilling to watch your character just getting eaten.

 

[Prons]

Clock Tower on the Super Nintendo:


"DEAD END" in big red text.

 

[imburke]

mortal kombat after getting destroyed without hitting someone, hear "AI wins, Flawless victory" was not only bad cause you lost, but because you didnt even manage to tickle him with a breeze more or less hit the guy

 

[Slash Dementia]

The only one I can think of is the one from Final Fantasy 9 where it says: "Annihilated."

 

[Jman1236]

Chrono Trigger
The screen when your party is wiped out by lavos: But the future refused to change...

Chrono Cross
The game over screen:
Fate has no forgiveness for those who dare stand against it.

 

[Redingold]

In Arena mode on TF2, when the Announcer says "Humiliating defeat! Next time, try killing one of them!"

 

[messy]

DMC4; gun heard shooting rapidly, screen shatters as if made of glass to reveal the letters "Abandon all hope"

 

[Jamash]

Shadow of the Beast 2 on the Amiga has my all time favourite game over sequence.

Spoiler: Game Over

[fix-the-spade]

pppsssshhhewwwwww... Snake? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!

 

[Pubert Mcgee]

Beautiful katamari with the pinball table of doom!

 

[Akio]

Prince of Persia? Oh wait...
Back to all seriousness, has to be Dead Space. It is so much fun watching Isaac get lacerated, impaled, decapitated or even in one sequence, just simply torn apart. Watching a guy get killed over and over... and enjoying it... should I seek help?

 

[hannarr]

I like Counterstrike's "_____ has turned your head into red jello!" quite a lot haha

 

[Kinguendo]

pppsssshhhewwwwww... Snake? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!

Aw man, I was gonna do that one... I am gonna go for it anyway!

*Dun-dun, dun-dah-dun, dun-dun-dun* Snake?!... snake!... SNAAAAAKE!!!

Half Life 2, not the red one, the one you get when you fail on the last boss fight.

 

[Au Naturel.]

Prince of Persia : The Sands of Time. If you died, the Prince would say something like "Wait, no, that didn't happen", or
"Let me try that again".
