Darkstar One gives one of these every time you're killed, and also lets each enemy get off a final line if you kill them. Sometimes they're funny, sometimes they're mildly sad, mostly they're just pointless. | |

Every boss that talks in The World Ends with You will drop a one-liner if they kill you, which takes precedence over your usual death screams. For example: "Another thrilling entreé!", "Do the math.", "Hey Uzuki! How 'bout that ramen?", "Now Shibuya... will be saved.", and "Open up your world!" | |

The Stanley Parable has a snarky narrator that makes fun of your death in some endings, the sole example being the Cold Feet ending, where he remarks that he is wrong in a sarcastic tone after urging you to jump off the platform several times and the Powerful ending, where he sarcastically congratulates the player for jumping off the platform before the cargo lift moves. | |

Jagged Alliance and its sequels often had voiced lines when mercs who knew each other well died within their line of sight. One of them involved Fox, a pin-up girl and combat medic. "NO! Not the Fox! Her centrefold will live on forever in my memory!" In the sequel, characters often form "character pairs". They improve morale by fighting with each other. Sometimes they're one way. Steroid likes Grizzly for his brute strength, Grizzly doesn't care. Fox and Grizzly like each other. Gaston is infatuated with Fox. These are just a few examples, as the sequel has even more mercs than the first game, and many of them can interact. "Alas, in death, the fox has left many a broken heart scattered about this place..." |

In fact, this is pretty par for the course in later games of the Tales Series. In fact, in the remake of Tales of Destiny, not only do every human boss have something to say to you when your party dies, but who narrates the Game Over line "And they were never seen again," is dependent on which playable character you were using at the time you died. | |

The Dark Forces Saga has a few of these, including the Dark Jedi of Jedi Outcast/Academy saying "May the Force be with you." in a very snide tone, or "Now I am the master." if they best you in combat. In at least the latter two, each bad guy has three phrases for each situation, including just having killed you. They'll say things like "And I thought Jedi were supposed to be tough," "Wish he'd put up a fight," and many, many more. For whatever reason they weren't included in the final game, but even the good Jedi have them, and you'd have heard them if you chose the dark side. "I must meditate on this!" If you get mowed down by stormtroopers, there's the always popular "That's one less Rebel scum!" and in Jedi Knight 1, "He won't be giving us any more trouble!" (said in unison by as many as half a dozen stormtroopers) |

In Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, if you die during the battle with Albus, he gets a hold of himself and mutters, "Shanoa... please kill me..." Die during the Barlowe fight and he mocks you for your betrayal. Towards the end, when you fight Dracula, dying gives you the message "You danced well." Dying inside the Castle at all will give you an alternate Game Over screen with Dracula staring outwards with his creepy eyes. | |

In some of the Grand Theft Auto games, when you're arrested, your lawyer can occasionally be heard as the screen fades saying things like, "Do you really think my client is capable of that?" Others include: "My client hasn't ever been to the city," "Of course my client looks like the suspect. You look like an idiot, it doesn't mean you are one!" or "My client doesn't even know how to drive a car". Damn right he doesn't. |

Persona 3 has Mission Control begging the player character to get up, or denying that he could possibly be defeated, in various fashions when We Cannot Go On Without You is invoked. And once the screen fades to black, Igor waxes poetic on the Main Character's death: Ditto for Persona 4 on both counts. |

Halo had a couple that emphasized how in awe everyone was of the Master Chief, such as a teammate saying "Great, now what do we do?", or an enemy Grunt saying in astonishment "It...dies?" Others were more humorous, such as Sergeant Johnson commenting "Ha ha, Chief, real funny. Now get up. ......uh-oh." There is also plenty of dialogue where enemies and allies will react to the deaths of their comrades and enemies, with Marines shouting exclamations like "Why is it always the beautiful ones?" and "That man had a kitten!" and Grunts making an honestly heartbreaking peal of "He was my best friend!" or "No! :sniff: My buddy's gone!" Guilty Spark: "Reclaimer, the Archive is this way! ...Reclaimer?" Occasionally, a Grunt will offer a hilarious inversion: "I'm still alive? This game RULES!" And everyone's favorite: A huge, hulking Brute, screaming out "He was my LOVERRR!" Sometimes they just care about your gear: "Can I have his helmet?" / "I get his gun!" |

In Tales of Symphonia, if you or one of your allies die during a battle they will utter something (both the person who dies and some other character). What they say depends on who dies and your relationship with that character. For example, if Kratos dies and has the highest affection rating, Lloyd will call out "No! I don't believe this!" Some of the bosses have quotes like this, too. If you're killed by Yuan in the Tethe'alla Base, for example, he says "Curse your fate for standing in my way!". In fact, this is pretty par for the course in later games of the Tales Series. In fact, in the remake of Tales of Destiny, not only do every human boss have something to say to you when your party dies, but who narrates the Game Over line "And they were never seen again," is dependent on which playable character you were using at the time you died. |

Yzma's eulogy for Kuzco in The Emperor's New Groove starts out formal, but then she abruptly ends it with "Well! He ain't gettin' any deader! Back to work!" For the record, Kronk thinks it was lovely. | |

Many bosses in the Mega Man Zero series (starting with Harpuia in Zero 2) will comment on your death should you lose to them. All speaking bosses in the sequel series ZX do this. One particularly creepy example is Siarnaq, the Model P Biomatch in ZX Advent, who usually talks like an emotionless robot... but lets out an Evil Laugh if he kills you. It's pretty low-key in English, but Siarnaq goes full-on Laughing Mad in Japanese. | |

Jak and Daxter occasionally had Daxter make a snide comment if Jak went down ("Heimlich? Stretcher? Yech... Breath mint?"). "Don't worry, Jak, I'll avenge you! ...Not!" "I was right behind you, Jak! Really, I was." "Step one: stay alive. Step two: try not to think about doing something like that again!" "I'll say something really teary at the funeral, like How am I going to be changed back now?" |

Metal Gear Solid has one of the Mission Control characters, apparently hearing Snake's dying scream over the CODEC, frantically contact him as "Game Over" pops up, usually with some form of, "Snake, what happened? Snake?!? SNAAAAKKKEEEE!" Sometimes this changes - hitting the C4 wires during the fight with Ocelot in the first game leads to Ocelot shouting, "You idiot!" (The remake changed it to a more restrained "You stupid fool..."). If you die trying to resist the torture, you hear a snatch of a conversation between Liquid and Ocelot: And let's not forget: Super Smash Bros.. Brawl also has the "SNAAAAKE" yells if you die while the Codec is playing a message. The Slippy one is particularly funny. |

Portal 2 has a couple of examples. In single-player, one character tries to convince you to walk into a crushing machine and save yourself the trouble of the upcoming boss fight; doing this will provoke a comment along the lines of "Wow, didn't think you'd really go for it." In multiplayer, GLaDOS has plenty of sarcasm for the bots when they get themselves blown up. | |

If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device: In the sixth vox-log, "Day in the Life of Boy", the Principal Vox-Caster unfavorably compares Boy to one of his peers, BARG BIG-THROAT, who he treats as The Ace for being a malformed, feral madman that frequently bullies Boy. Shortly thereafter, he later gets a report that Barg died "in a tragic rat accident" like the ones Boy dodges every day. Boy's reaction: | |

Team Fortress 2 has automatic responses from the various classes when they kill an opponent, quite a few of which fall into line with this trope. The best demonstration comes from the Soldier, who occasionally offers a hilariously perfunctory "You're dead, that's good, amen." | |

In Left 4 Dead, players can cooperate as a team of four survivors. If one is killed, the others will sometimes lament their fallen comrade, especially if they walk near the corpse. ...and all the emotion of that moment is instantly wiped out when, immediately after (or sometimes during) that eulogy, your character will yell out "Pills here!" or "Weapons here!" as you spot the dead comrade's stuff.) "Louis! Oh God, Louis... I'm going to miss you... hey, shotgun!" If one person is trolling and the other three shoot him down, that's just frosting on the cake. |
