10 Video Game Achievements You Had To Die To Unlock

1. Extra Crispy - Saints Row: Gat Out Of Hell

It won't surprise anyone that a franchise as irreverent as Saints Row includes an achievement for willingly getting yourself killed, and of course, to pop the achievement you need to subject yourself to a cartoonishly over-the-top, brutally prolonged death.

The Extra Crispy 'cheev in Saints Row: Gat Out Of Hell is unlocked by taking a dip in any of the lava pools situated around Hell and staying there until you're finally overcome by the liquid hot magma.

Yet because Saints Row is pretty generous with the health it doles out, you certainly won't die quickly - it takes about 40 seconds for your starting health to be fully depleted by the lava, ensuring you're forced to awkwardly dance around in the hot stuff until the deed is finally done.

At that point, in a giddy homage to Terminator 2, you'll flip the bird as you descend helplessly into the recesses of the lava pool - but at least you'll get something for it.
