Her injuries were good enough to count as the necessary sacrifice, but her doubts stopped them from being fully lethal, and she was saved by some traveling apothecaries staying at the nearby town.]]

* ''VideoGame/{{Siren}}''. Akira Shimura shoots himself with his hunting rifle after having just too much of the Cosmic Horror that the village of Hanuda became. Unfortunately being that Hanuda has become Cosmic Horror, instead of dying he revives some time later as one of the many Shibito, and cracks up when he realizes that he's still alive. This is repeated in the [=PS3=] remake ''Blood Curse'', with Seigo Saiga turning his shotgun on himself after assisting one of the other characters, only to revive as a Shibito and use that shotgun on the partner of a third character when they come through a few hours later.
* If you fail to save Cid in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'', Celes will throw herself off a cliff in despair, only to survive landing at the bottom. It's mentioned that dozens of other people threw themselves off and did die; when she realizes she survived, she concludes ''something'' wants her to survive[[note]]Her hardened constitution due to severe military training and actual warfare, augmented with the infusion of magical powers?[[/note]]. On returning to Cid's body, she finds a note directing her to his raft, and the game proper resumes.
** Also counts as a HappilyFailedSuicide, since finding a seagull patched up with what looks like Locke's bandana makes her happy she didn't try and gives her the determination to head out and look for her friends.
* In ''Videogame/PlanescapeTorment'' The Nameless One can actually stage these as a means to at least two ends, thanks to his immortality. First to knock a suicidal Dustman back on his rails in the Hive, then to discredit a lecturer's claims of afterlife during your stay at the Civic Festhall.
* ''[[VideoGame/DotHackGUGames .hack//G.U.]]'' has Atoli's player Chigusa, who bears several marks on her left wrists from failed suicide attempts. She has stopped trying to end her life after meeting Haseo.
* Subverted in the opening scene of ''VideoGame/{{Persona 3}}'': Yukari is shown pointing a gun at her head and trying to pull the trigger with shaking hands, then dropping it and crying, but it turns out she was only trying to summon her Persona, not kill herself.
* In Agent Stone's backstory of ''VideoGame/TwistedMetal: Black'', he tries to shoot himself in the mouth after realizing that his anger not only led him to kill the target, but also a girl and her mother. However, it fails because the gun was out of bullets.
* It's never shown or stated outright, but Adrian Andrews' attempted suicide in ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyJusticeForAll'' was most likely this.
* One of these sets off the plot of ''VideoGame/{{Postal}} 2''[='=]s expansion pack ''Apocalypse Weekend'': at the end of the base game, the Postal Dude shot himself upon realizing he forgot his nagging wife's rocky road ice cream. The expansion opens with the revelation that he survived the shooting, though the bullet lodged in his brain ends up causing all sorts of crazy, ''Franchise/SilentHill''-esque hallucinations throughout the next two in-game days.
* Clem and Crystal from ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'' are two [[StepfordSmiler seemingly very cheerful]] children who are secretly suicidal. It's implied their self esteem issues are due to bullying. Their behavior for the most part is played for [[BlackComedy dark laughs]]. Clem and Crystal try to poison themselves and jump off a building but both attempts fail (though the latter was an InterruptedSuicide).
