Whatever complaints people might have with David Cage, it is hard not to appreciate the man's attention to detail, even when it results in unintentional suicide. Partway through Lucas' story, the player is offered a few ways to help calm his nerves over the murder mystery. Among those on offer are whisky and painkillers, both of which can be taken without any hesitation. Well, surprise, surprise, doing so isn't exactly good for Lucas' health. Almost immediately he collapses, face-planting onto the ground with his closing dialogue all but outright asking if this was intentional suicide. Admittedly this is only a slight step up from the alternative should the player fail to calm him down and ease the man's nerves, at which point he does commit intentional suicide by leaping to his death. Did we fail to miss an infamous game over hidden within a famous title? Please leave your own suggestions and thoughts in the comments below.
