I believe the ability to shoot or stab yourself in games should be possible, i know a few games let it happen but i bet blowing your brains out would be easier than suffering the torment of several zombies eating you alive... just a thought.
Now there's an idea...
Anyfudge, in games, suicide is becoming more and more common, especially in shooters. I find committing suicide in games fun, if it's a self inflicted suicide though, not if I'm snipering out some git on the last level and he shoots me, making me lose my balance, where I fall off of the roof or something.
Here are some examples of fun suicide.
Quake 3 Arena - you're chasing someone from Brazil down a hallway and you see him jump, but you decide not to jump - BIG MISTAKE! You fall down, into the lava, where you burn in hell.
Tactical Ops (TO) - Snipering on the 'Getaway' level, and then someone shoots you, making you lose your balance, hence making you fall off of the roof, to the floor, where your body explodes. It's all a hilarious, bloody mess, and I wish that my reactions were fast enough to take a screen capture of it.
Suicide rules! :0)

There's always one.
I bet you was thinking of an exception to that for ages so you could act cocky and reply, no?
:-P
Erm, you can't die in games like Command and Conquer so err yeah.
