Eventually I managed to kill all of the lions as they came on screen, but as it turns out his death is just coded into the game. R.I.P. LAZLO - THE FINEST MIND OF HIS GENERATION
OH YEAH! I remember that. I saved so many times on that one area trying to save Lazlo. XD
That also reminds me of certain activities I do in games.
One of them is tempting enemies.
For example in Half-life 2, if you stand on the sand, it alerts sand-lions to come after you. I love standing on sand, waiting for them to spawn then quickly jumping to a safe area where they can't get me then they go back.
In Darksiders 1 you come to a sand area which a HUGE sandworm... thing. I love jumping into the sand for it to follow me and then running back on to a safe area.
In Gears of War there are these bat like creatures called Kryll. If you jump out of the lighted areas into the dark they'll swarm around you and dice you to piece. So much fun tempting them in Gears 1.
Ahhh yes, baiting the enemy
My favourite is in older games where just going outside of a certain distance from an enemy made you invisible. Just had to run slightly faster
"Look at me, enemy !"
"MUST KILL"
"Noooooooope"
"GODDAMIT"
