3:05 the programming language Lain's writing is Lisp. It were believed that Lisp was an Artificial Intelligence language, which is probably why there where another Lain in the Wired.

Wha!? Suicide?! Also, WTF is that THING at 4:11? Is Lain creating some sort of synthetic human?
Personally, I'm keeping the show and this game separate. I agree with rptheory: suicide is an interesting twist, but it really doesn't fit.

This really was a weird little "game", wasn't it? The only continuity problems is the whole "killing Mika" scene (at least that's what I think it was) and wired Lain killing herself. If we go by what the anime established, wired Lain was a strong, independent woman in contrast to her shy, quiet real life self. Now it makes sense why Lain wants to escape, BUT, wired Lain would never be able to go through with killing herself since she was strong and secure of herself. I need help understanding...

The best is from minute 7.00 till end.
Either way, the fact that they incorporated suicide in this game is mindfucking itself.
If the show and the game followed eachother, then that would mean that she can't escape the wired no matter what, because if she had killed her wired version before, it should still be gone.
I would say that it's a metaphor for "there is no reality," meaning that because of the technological advances continuously being made, you can never truly exist in reality.

The game was meant to accompany the anime, they are related and are both canon. If this is your favorite anime you probably understand that Lain exist in both the real and the Wired world. She 'takes the loser's way out' as you put it, and kills herself in the Wired, in order to escape it and become real.
