Top 10 Most Bizarre Ways to Die in a Video Game

07. Death by Idle (Sonic CD)

In most video games players can usually find a safe spot to walk away from the game for a moment to do things like eat, use the toilet, take out the trash because their wife is totally channeling their mother from when they were 13... The point is, you can usually find someplace to stop while you do those things.

If you happen to be playing Sonic CD? Yeah, not so much... Unless of course you can get your business done before three minutes roll off on the timer.

Because if you don't get back and move Sonic before the timer hits the three minute mark, why that blue hedgehog gets right angry with you, announces “I'm outta here!” and then commits suicide by jumping off the screen and falling to his death, followed by the “Game Over” screen!

Now seriously, a video game character with no patience? You know in theory video game characters are like cops - we pay their salary - so if we want to wander off to the kitchen and grab a hot pocket and fresh cup of OJ that should not be justification for suicide!
