10 Hilarious Video Game Death Scenes You Totally Missed
8. Resident Evil 5 - The Neck Snap
This one was too good not to have the video for it. You are welcome.
Resident Evil 5 may have fully cemented the series' departure from horror after the success of the fourth game, but that doesn't mean it wasn't without horrible moments.
And considering this is Resident Evil we're talking about, by horrible I obviously mean hilarious.
Whilst there is an absolute multitude of Quick Time Events you can fail for spectacular results in RE 5, it has to be neck snap that takes the prize for hilarity.
What makes it fantastic is there's no pomp or bluster to it, no massive ceremony. Just Wesker interrupting Chris with some acrobatic spinal column readjustment.
It's a very "blink and you'll miss it" QTE, at least that's what I keep telling myself. It's also a very quick death, as I spent more time looking at the Game Over screen laughing and thinking "Did that just happen?!" to myself.
Alas, it does, and we're rewarded with some of the most hilarious and out of the blue body horror that the series had ever offered up to that point.
