This epic-item-dropped-on-death mechanic can some what be seen in the WC3:FT custom game called DotA (quite popular). The Divine Rapier, is the most expensive item in the game, it's seldom seen.. and when it is, the game usually changes dramatically.
With a random team you can often see them planning for their own allies death if they have a divine rapier, so they can pick it up themselves of course.
In DotA there is no need for bonus flashy graphics though they would be a boon. The lure of the power of the Divine Rapier is all the players need. Rest assured the wielder will be hunted.
It's fantastic the first time you see the rapier in a game.
Great mechanic I say!
