10 Video Game Protagonists Who Were Way Too Satisfying To Kill

3. Isaac Clarke - Dead Space

Much like Resident Evil 4, the Dead Space series is revered for its gruesome array of death sequences, such that every so often, it's actually tempting to let protagonist Isaac Clarke die, just to feast your eyes on another grisly and inventive death animation. Some of the more unpleasant sequences include Isaac shooting a giant spike through his own face, having his head ripped off by a Necromorph (which then takes control of his body), getting stabbed in the throat by a giant beast, and most famously the scene in which Isaac has his eyeballs impaled (pictured above). Still, the most graphic kill has to be when a Necromorph slashes Isaac's arm off, followed by a slash through his chest. For a few moments, Isaac seems fine (aside from, you know, losing his arm and all), but soon enough his torso falls off, all while his legs continue to move for a few seconds, before collapsing in a bloody pile of entrails. Glorious.
