No, but I have played all Larry Laffer games, Space Quest etc., and even though the death scenes can be funny, they are still annoying when they happen.

And I still fail to see, how they have any place in adventure games. It is after all an adventure, a story, and if you die, it should be over. How can you complete an adventure after having died 27 times? The fact that you can do just that only shows that deaths are totally irrelevant for the gameplay (except for a few cases where you actually HAVE to die in order to finish the game).
