8 Video Games That Punish You For Taking A Break!

8. Sonic Kills Himself - Sonic CD

It's a very well-known fact that Sonic The Hedgehog does indeed like to "go fast". Whether he's zipping through lush green hills, or through the cold reaches of space in an effort to roll the rotund villain, Dr Eggman, out of existence, he's always go, go, go!

In fact, it can become quite aggressive with how insistent he is to always be on the move, and there's no better example of this than in Sonic CD, where if the player isn't keeping pace, he'll throw himself into oblivion!

If Sonic is left idle, he'll begin to tap his foot impatiently and check his watch occasionally in order to motivate you into moving him, however, if you manage to spend around two minutes answering your phone or the door, or explaining to a friend why Sonic '06 is genuinely a really good game (which some Sonic fans staunchly defend for some reason) then the chilli dog eating champion will finally give up waiting AND KILL HIMSELF leading to an instant Game Over.

Pretty harsh!
