Streets of Rage games

Golden Axe

Mortal Kombat

Why is it so satisfying to do this?

Spyro 1's ice cave level

>>8484879
I was about to say this lol. Those two like horned dog head bosses. Its the first or second one and they reappear later and they can literally be walked right off a ledge

>>8485305
i'm pretty sure you can trick enemies into walking right into pits in all 3 golden axe games

Battletoads

>>8484845
Not a pit, but first boss of undercover cops you can push into a garbage press to kill instantly

It's the centerpiece of the game - its soul and its core.

>>8485440
i dont think it works in three but absolutely does in the first two

>>8484956
>usually harder to do than simply beating them squarely
>extra immersion since enemies are just as vulnerable to hazards as you are
>you get to see what happens if something falls without having to die yourself

>encounter Bokoblin, Moblin, or Darknut in the Wind Waker
>attack them with a bomb ( note: Darknuts must have armor removed or it won't hurt them )
>Assuming they weren't killed, they now have a fear of explosives
>pull out another bomb
>they flinch and start fleeing
>Chase them with the bomb until they run off a high ledge
>if it's high enough they let out a scream and will die from the fall

I love the little touches in this game.

on the flipside.

its easier to eliminate enemies this way, or even if they are the same or greater difficulty... you eliminate them in "one shot" this way, notwithstanding their HP etc.

>>8484845
Does it count if it's the only way to beat them?

>>8484845
Renegade, subway stage

>>8486446
why do that knee hit looks so silly

>>8485713

it's so satisfying to make them walk right into the pit

>>8484845
>enemies
It's a matter of perspective.

>>8484845
From the level "Piston It Away"

>>8484845
to make your opponet fall to a pit in killer instinct 2 counts?

>another thread about hurting or killing things
Sage and hide.

>>8488495
oh absolutely. makes some parts alot easier. golden axe can be pretty unforgiving sometimes

We don't know what kind of terrible threats that penguin whispered to Mario - what he did to it may have been perfectly fair

Top down handheld Zeldas too

>>8484845
i was captivated by doing such things when i was a child. the tower in the next level blew my mind

In PS1 twisted metal i would play the drill guy for hours on the blimp level, impale people and drop them out of the bomb bay doors

>>8496125
you're thinking of twisted metal 3
but, each tm (at least, 1-3) all had levels where you could throw enemies to their deaths
2 had the sky scraper level and antartica. 3 had the blimp and the tokyo level with the giant fan

A Link to the Past, the Ozzie fights in Chrono Trigger. The Guardian at the end of Sandopolis Zone Act 1 can only be defeated by making it jump in the shifting sand.

>>8484845
Goldeneye 64.

On the other hand, that's how the movie goes. The real challenge is beating him without knocking him off the ledge.

>>8486698
Metroid is fucking garbage.

>>8489013
Name 10 games (ten) that are not about hurting or killing.

>>8484845

What games with pits don't let you kill enemies this way?

>>8498551
Any Mario game, for one. They just respawn if you return to their spawn point.

>>8484956
It fucking sucks when you dash attack one and they sidestep you causing you to fall.
