8. John Marston - Just Use The Other Barn Door

By now the events of Rockstar's magnum opus are close to common knowledge, but incase you aren't aware of how this wild west tale wraps up, hero John Marston ends up locked in a barn alongside both his son and wife, electing to get them to flee for their lives as he attempts to blast his way through a few scores of baying-for-blood law officers. Hold on a minute though... Marston just told his family there was another way to leave - all within minutes of the cavalry arriving outside, so we know they can get away unseen. You could argue that John is deciding to choose his own fate as recompense for never being able to get away from the sins of his past, but considering Edgar Ross is the only guy with a score to settle (as proven later on) all he had to do was escape one last time and bring the fight to him later.
