Funny Deaths


That's right, I'm a lazy bastard and haven't posted for almost two weeks. Do something.

Anyone who has played these games will know that it is not difficult to die in them (a fact that I have been painfully re-educated in after playing the nigh-deathless Monkey Island games). While fiddling around on the Internet, I happened across this amusing gallery of character deaths from the Space Quest series. Some of my favorites are:
