Game Over originally appeared in pinball machines, and later, arcade machines. When players lose at a game, it is game over.
Games where you control more than one character, or are a part of a team, and where it is crucial that every team member survives.
Everyone else can keel over as much as necessary, but if the party leader falls, it's game over. Sometimes this makes logical sense, like with perma-death battle systems. But more often then not the main character is one Phoenix Down away from a game over.
A system in which the player is allowed to control multiple characters. Most commonly seen in role playing games. Can also be used to describe party systems in the MMORPG genre, which brings a group of players together to accomplish various tasks.
