After furiously fighting my way through an old Martian temple, I found myself at the level boss with no lives in reserve and no back-up credits. That means I'll die to a single hit. And I've never fought this boss before, meaning I have no clue what his attack patterns look like. I resign myself to dying horribly.

After some amazing dodges, lots of bullets and a few perfectly-timed Vaunts, I watched in amazement as the boss began to explode. I'd beaten him without a single hit! I was ecstatic!

...and then the boss was re-announced as the game's final boss, his health bar was refilled, and I was killed by a laser beam.  >:(

That stage is HARD D:

Trying a speed run in Spelunkey. I run past some spikes, leap over a small hill, get nailed by an arrow trap, and fly back to land dead-center on previously-mentioned spikes. Insta-death. I swear this game is telepathic, as it always throws the most bs-y obstacles at me when I try to complete a speed run.

Try spawning with two arrow traps. Two and a half seconds in and I'm dead. Arrow trap activates, knocks me into range of the other, and bang, dead.

Almost 400 deaths (around half of them from failed speed run attempts).

3 wins.

Yep.

Holy hell the final room, its the worst of all the other rooms in a horrible flipping spiky package.  It makes Cave story's true final area look like a damn cakewalk.  200 deaths to that room alone.

Killed by multiple axe wielding cows, some of which were invisible, some of which could summon more, and one that can simply rape you.

But then again, in Cave Story, you lacked the ability to save in the last parts. VVVVVV's final room has a checkpoint just before the big danger. Of course, it doesn't mean that VVVVVV's final room is much easier, but it's less tedious with that checkpoint placement.

Although really, Final room's kinda funny, when it's your first time entering it, and suddenly, it's the room where everybody gets the Most deaths in a room status thingy.

I hate that place.

Carefully put down a box of bombs that I couldn't afford and was instantly shotgunned in the face. WTF, shopkeep?

Oh for the love of all that is holy, WHY DON'T YOU DIE YOU STUPID DEFTERA!

Deftera keep fusing with the same colored Deftera, which damages a patient's vitals. They're also spitting out too much tumors that literally drain off the vitals in just a few seconds.

GAH, JUST DIE ALREADY

Skyrim. I also died to some giants, but everyone dies to giants so it's not too noteworthy.
