NeverDead  Konami (Rebellion Developments)2012The basic idea of the dismemberment mechanic is not new in NeverDead but very likely the first more personal case. Previously this was done in [game=#44714]Metal Fatigue[/game] (2000) from Psygnosis where the mechs (your primary fighting force) could get parts of themselves torn off and they could re-assemble themselves.

[game=#16958]Die by the Sword[/game] also had similar case, but IIRC in that getting dismembered was pretty much a dead end (much more useful in the survival/gauntlet mode as it prolonged your ability to go farther).
