Death and dying in video games has been an integral part of the experience ever since the first miss-timed jump that sent Mario plummeting to his doom.

Growing up as a predominantly PC gamer, boss fights used to make me nervous. I distinctly remember playing Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island at my buddy’s place and handing him the controller for even the first boss, an encounter which involves a big guy jumping around until you hit him enough times for his pants to fall down. Looking back now, I didn’t appreciate that the Kilrathi aces in Wing Commander, enemies like the Barons and Cyberdemons in Doom, or the Dark Jedi in Jedi Knight, were bosses too....

Unfortunately, in film and television, creativity has to contend with what is practical, or what makes good commercial sense....
