Beat Death.

[Adam]

Thought i'd ask you guys this one.

Saw this great strip earlier:

Now, if Death comes for your soul, what is the one game you would challenge him to, and do you think you would win it?

 

[vivisectvi]

Columns 3, Sega Genesis. I was (am still) unbeatable in that sumbitch.

 

[Black Lushus]

Dance Dance Revolution

 

[Fökai]

NBA Street, Vol. 1 (PS2).
The original NFL Blitz (PS1).

Undefeated in both of those games, the latter being one where I would spot 3-4 touchdowns to my friends and still cream them.

 

[Twisted Intestine]

Super Smash Bros n64. My friends who I play every so often with couldn't beat me 2 on 1.

 

[muzzington]

Day of Defeat. Death would probably use a Thompson while I'd stick with the Kar98 and one shot him again and again.

 

[Kageho]

A competition to see who can get through Final Fantasy IV the fastest. I've gotten my time down to 8 hours, I think Death wouldn't be able to do that.

 

[foleyfanforever88]

Mario Kart: Double Dash

 

[vivisectvi]

My backup would be F-Zero on SNES.

 

[Youth N Asia]

Speed Run on Starfox 64 or Super Punch-Out.

 

[Mattdotcom]

NFL Blitz 20-02

 

[muzzington]

If I wasn't confident I'd challenge him to Sim City 2000 or the Sims or something. The games that you can't actually win.

 

[tekcop]

A competition to see who can get through Final Fantasy IV the fastest. I've gotten my time down to 8 hours, I think Death wouldn't be able to do that.

Similar to this, and race through the NES version of Final Fantasy 1. With four white mages. Death would give up, I'm sure.

 

[Black Lushus]

Dragon's Lair 2: Time Warp, no deaths and collecting all items on the first pass.

 

[luke-o]

Micro Machines on the Mega Drive.

 

[Agent of Oblivion]

Quarters. No one's beating death at anything, so might as well get pissed.

 

[luke-o]

Death ain't beating me at Micro Machines.

 

[2GOLD]

I'll challenge him to a race around the world and make it so he can't use magic. Then I'll hit him with a car and take his job. Then I shall become Death. Just because I want his awesome gamer skills.

 

[Sabre]

Bust a groove on ps1. I am unbeatable.

 

[Big Papa Paegan]

A contest of who can grow the most flesh in 1 second starting 5 years ago.

EDIT:
Or, of course...
Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey - Challenging Death

Twister. Definitely Twister.

 

[Red Baron]

NHL 98 on the PC or F1 World Grand Prix on N64

 

[Master Thrasher]

I'm not consistently good at any game so I'll say SF4. I have a 50/50 shot of beating him.
Maybe Civilization 3 if I'm lucky.
