When a character is defeated/killed in battle, they usually give out a final cry or something to indicate that they're a goner. Sometimes, a character's death cry is repeated like an echo, each growing softer than the last. This is done to intensify the death of a character (or it may simply overdramatize it). Essentially (but not exclusively) a Video Game Trope. The final cry being much longer and/or louder than any previous ones the character let out while taking damage can be especially helpful for the player when the enemy character has no onscreen Life Meter. Some examples that are only nominally "death cries" can be found in a few other places. |

One chilling example is when you die in the Metroid Prime Trilogy. Samus cries out and the echonote actually more like a reverb happens as the screen turns to static. Both Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion share the same sound effect - a slightly echoed scream - and the same graphic effect of Samus' suit falling off and Samus dying. Other M keeps up the tradition, Samus crying out as she collapses, followed by Adam's voice "Samus, what's going on?! Respond! Respo.."[static] |

While the player character doesn't scream in Five Nights at Freddy's, the animatronics do that for you when they catch you. Though the player themself might also scream at the sudden Jump Scare. | |

Delivered by the NAGGAROK after its destruction in Homeworld:Cataclysm, lasting a terrifying thirty seconds. Hand Waved as actually being the voices of all Beast entities dying as the NAGGAROK fails. This also happens in the rest of the game if they get hit with the Beast beam, signifying the crew being turned into Meat Moss and assimilated into the Beast hive mind. | |

Nearly every Resident Evil game has the main character scream after getting murdered by whoever killed them. Though sometimes it's an exhausted groan that replaces the screams in some games. And in Resident Evil 5 and 6, being co-op games they have your partner, who will instead scream their partner's name in horror at them dying. | |

World Heroes 2 Jet had a unique twist: some moves (especially throws) were considered as multiple hit. While the death cry would be played just once on the last hit, if that's the first 'hit' of such a throw, you can be treated to up to three additional death cries. | |

All Metal Gear Solid note but not the MSX Metal Gears, for obvious hardware-limitations reasons games so far use this trope when the hero is killed. It's also used for Liquid Snake's two Disney Villain Not-Quite-Deaths (as well as his actual death from Fox-Die) in the first game, and when Emma is killed by the enemy in the second game. After the death, a quote similar to the one on top of the page is issued by one of your team members - but it doesn't really apply. It's less of an echo and more someone else repeating the character's name. When Snake arrived as a guest in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, this trope was oddly inverted. Snake will still do the Death Cry Echo when knocked into the stratosphere, but Snake being knocked off the sides of the stage is the only time Snake's death cry does not echo. It should be noted that during his taunt (which engages a codec call), the person he's talking to will cry his name if killed during the call. Yes, including Slippy. |

The Wing Commander games would have both friendly and enemy pilots scream over the radio at you if they were destroyed. Apparently when their ship is breaking up, they only have the presence of mind to hit the communicator and yell "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!", rather than the eject button. In WC:Prophecy, some destroyed pilots would wait patiently for scripted comm dialogue to finish, potentially several minutes, before crying out and exploding when the comms were clear. Before they coded in the actual dialogue in Wing Commander 2's speech pack, they had placeholder sound files, such as "forming on your wing" or "attacking" in a complete deadpan. Much hilarity ensued the first time the player lost a wingman, who calmly stated, "I'm dead." |

Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter has two for each multi-player soldier when they get killed (there are a total of 5 different "faces" the character can choose from). If killed by a silencer or a grenade, their death cry is extremely louder than normal. | |

Soul Series: The Apprentice's death cry when knocked out in Soul Calibur 4 is absolutely ridiculous. It probably lasts longer than anything he says throughout the span of the game. And yet it's oddly satisfying to hear. Dampierre from the PSP game is the first character in the series to say something when he dies rather than scream, yelling "YOU COWAAAAAARD!" when you ring him out. |

Final Fantasy Tactics has different death cries for male, female, monster and zodiac units, modulated mostly by speed and pitch. All of them have some reverberation on them. | |

M.U.G.E.N: The game gives the option of toggling on or off Death Cry Echoes for each and every character. Kung Fu Man, the Original Character, has this. |

Most Mega Man X games, and all of the Robot Masters in Mega Man 8 and Mega Man 11. Mega Man himself usually has one or two whenever you lose a life. | |

Common in Toku programs. Sometimes a monster exploding just isn't dramatic enough and this trope comes into play. | |

In Super Smash Bros., characters have two separate death cries. One is a short, abrupt one that is given when the character is knocked off the edge of the screen or into a pit. The second is a long, echoey cry that comes when they're sent flying into the background by being sent off the top. (There is also a grunt that comes if they hit the screen.) | |
