(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); 1. Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Death by Peach
Death at the hands of Bowser is manageable, but to lose to Peach, quite easily the most vulnerable, weak and annoying video-game character of all-time, is just downright ridiculous. If you fail against Peach, you fail at life.
2. Modern Warfare 2: Death by your grenade

You pull out a semtax and throw it in the direction of an enemy, only for it to stick to the wall in front of you, where it will explode and set off the claymore you’ve placed at the door entrance, killing you in the process. Facepalm.
3. Super Mario Bros.: Death by Goomba
The very first Goomba on the very first level in the very first Super Mario Bros. It’s the only game on the planet that EVERYONE knows how to play, and yet you fail at the first of a seemingly never-ending run of enemies. Hang you head in shame.


4. Quest for Glory: Death by nose picking

Yeah, that’s right. The game, for whatever reason, allows you to insert a lock-pick into your nose. Do so, and the “surgeon general” will warn you that you’ve had a cerebral brain hemorrhage and that you "should have been practicing on less difficult locks."
5. Modern Warfare 2: Death by noob-toob
We’ve all been there before; you’re on an absolute roll, picking off enemies left, right and center. You're racking up the kills with ease from your cozy little camping spot, as you work your way up towards that Nuke, only for that little runt to noob-toob you from the other end of the map, ending your killstreak only one kill short of that ever-so-sweet Nuke.
6. Modern Warfare 2: Death by Care Package

It doesn’t matter if you’ve called it or not: having a Care Package land on you is frustrating, but hilarious for anyone else that witnesses it. You’d have to have some pretty bad luck to be standing in the exact position it’s landing, especially on the larger maps.
7. Team Fortress 2: Death by facestab.
Having a spy stab you from the back when they’re right in front of you just doesn’t make sense. Of course it’s due to lag and time differences, and it’s more frustrating than embarrassing, but it’s by far one of the worst ways to die in TF2…and that’s saying something.
8. Super Mario Galaxy: Death by black hole

This is more of an issue early on, when the obstacles you face aren’t anywhere near as challenging as the platform puzzles you face later on. But falling off a large platform or mistiming a jump onto a large area before spiraling into a black hole is particularly embarrassing, especially considering the game holds your hand early on when moving from place to place.


9. Any online XBOX 360 game: Death by dead batteries.
Believe it or not, some people are still living in the Stone Age with their battery-run 360 controllers, despite the fact you can buy a charger accessory that has been available since the console launched. Imagine playing Modern Warfare 2 and running directly down the middle of the map - which is arguably the most dangerous part of any map to run through - only for your batteries to die, causing you to stand vulnerable and unprotected, directly in the enemy's line of fire. Unless you’ve got some spare batteries lying around, you either have to shut down your console or watch as your ratio takes a small hit.
10. Halo 3: Death by splatter
There are literally thousands of ways to die in Halo 3, many of them incredibly embarrassing, but to be killed from behind by a vehicle driven by a teammate is the worst, especially if the gamer behind the wheel is an 8 year-old noob that never shuts up.
11. Halo 3: Death by traffic cone
Because traffic cones are the most dangerous thing on the planet *sigh*. Throw a grenade near a bunch of traffic cones to send them flying. However, be cautious, because if any of the traffic cones hit you, it’s instant death. Yep. Death by traffic cone.
12. Any online FPS: Death by teammate



13. GTA IV: Death by exploding car.
If the 30-meter turn radius wasn’t enough to frustrate you in GTA IV, then dying from the sudden explosion of a vehicle is going to send you crazy. While cars can burn for a lot longer without exploding than in previous GTA games, your best bet is to haul ass and get out of there, otherwise you’ll be sent flying. They explode rather randomly if damaged enough.
14. Super Mario Bros.: Death by time.
Your girlfriend’s been kidnapped, and you’ve got to travel through several worlds to save her. If that sounds like a challenge, you’ve only got 100 seconds to move through each world. The embarrassing thing is that time is rarely a factor in any of the Super Mario Bros. games, so if you do happen to run out of time, no matter how difficult the level might be, you’re just not cut out for the perils of the Mushroom Kingdom.
15. Halo 3: Death by 12-year-old
It doesn’t matter how you die or on what map it happened on - having a 12-year-old noob kill you and then abuse and taunt you ruins the experience. To have someone as inexperienced, annoying and cocky in life as a 12-year-old kill you in a game you’re supposed to own is as embarrassing as it gets.
16. Any game: Death by game freeze.
Most XBOX 360 owners will know what this feels like. You’ve just put in 2-3 hours straight without a save (silly you!), having advanced past a point you have struggled to complete, only for your console to freeze on you, thus ending your success and ruining your hot streak. If only Microsoft knew how damaging a mid-game freeze can be on a gamer. If only they knew *tear*.
17. Guitar Hero/Rock Band: Death by song failure, 95% complete.
While it’s not technically a death, working your way through a devilishly hard song before finally crashing out is heartbreaking. The real heartbreak doesn’t come until the actual statistics come up on the screen and you realize how close you just came to completion.


18. Frogger: Death by mistimed jump.
You can say with confidence that Frogger is either mentality or physically disabled (or both) considering he needs help to jump and move across a road or water. He’s a frog ffs! It’s a frog’s duty to be able to do those things, and yet it’s our responsibility to guide Frogger to his destination. But to see him fall and crumble because he can’t make the simplest of jumps is frustrating. It’s also easier to place the blame on the game character instead of your own sucky gaming skills.
19. Any Game: Death by defeated boss/enemy.
It doesn’t happen often, but it’s happened to most of us at least once. It’s that moment where your character and the enemy attack each other at the exact same moment, both inflicting the same amount of damage, and both dying at the same time.
20. Zelda: Death by Cucco
There’s no excuse for dying at the hands of a chicken. No excuse at all. Unless it’s not cooked right or something. But even if you’re going to taunt a chicken, surely you can run away from them? Death by Cucco isn’t just embarrassing, it’s moronic.

LMAO this thread gives me jokeeee
you missed fatality in MK

You forgot one thing, death by commando.

lmao death by self-grenade

Or Babality....Or even WORSE....Friendship :puke: :embarrassed: :scared:

21. Dying by tranq gun. Anyone ever get mad when playing metal gear online getting shot with a tranquilizer gun then someone bruns up to your unconsciousness ody, tbags you, then gets out there stun knife, puts playboy all around your body so when you wake up, your trapped looking at the playboy, then the guy stuns you with knife and slits your throat

AHAHAHA! Great list! I didn't even know 'eath by Cucco' was possible, lol!

LOL NICE! haha may i add 1 or 2? MW2 - death by your own claymore? or c4? RPG?

mind u worst 1 i ever had was by my own damn stun!

I forgot what game it is, but there's this one game where ANYTHING you touch kills you.And there's these tires that are like tiny, but even if you touch them, you get killed. That was ridiculous.

If I died by half of these I'd have to kill myself due to being a total failure.
