level, or situation. These are called "non-standard game over screens", and often are the result of failing to achieve certain objectives of a particular level or game mode. Examples include the non-standard game over messages in Plants vs. Zombies which are "All your pet zombies have perished!" in Zombiquarium, "You lost all your zombies!" in I, Zombie, "You survived for (number of flags that the player has completed) before dying a gruesome zombie death!!!" in Survival Mode, "You made it to a streak of (number of streaks that the player has completed)" in I, Zombie Endless and Vasebreaker Endless, and "You survived for (number of flags that the player has completed)!!" in Last Stand. Outside video gaming The phrase is occasionally used to indicate the end of an argument or process in real life. In January 2011, protesters and rioters in several North African and Middle Eastern countries used the slogan "Game over" on banners to express their anti-government sentiments. "Game over" is also sometimes used as a phrase to concede defeat, as for example in the movie Aliens where one of the protagonists, Private William Hudson (Bill Paxton), shouts, "Game over, man. Game over!" after the dropship meant to rescue him and his expedition is destroyed. Paxton's use of the phrase was included in shortened form in the SNES game adaptation of Alien 3, although the Hudson character did not appear in the film. The "Game Over" quote is heard in full after the final ball is drained in Zen Studios' virtual pinball adaptation of Aliens. The "game over" line was not in the Aliens script, but was ad libbed by Paxton. The phrase is also used various times in the Saw movie series, because of the antagonist's penchant for referring to the traps he creates as "games". In the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, the character Scott strums the 'Game Over' tune from the classic video game Super Mario World. Some gamebooks utilize this phrase as well. Each book in the Nintendo Adventure Book series has only one good ending, with all of the bad ones saying "Game Over".
