Guns aren't just a weapon in video games.
Sometimes they're plot devices, adding an element of terror or dread to the story, usually
in the form of a threat.
And just as you'd expect from people in real life, characters in games react in many
different ways when they have a gun pointed at their heads.
So today we're counting down the top 10 scariest gun moments in video games.
And, warning, major spoilers ahead.
10 Home - Gun shot noise One of the lighter entries on our list here,
Home is an 8-bit game where you wake up in a house with a bummed leg and no memory as
to how you got there.
All you know is you need to find your wife Rachel and get back home.
Throughout your journey home, you start to unravel several greater mysteries, all of
which are left eerily ambiguous by the end of the game.
You're entirely alone, with only a flashlight and the sounds of your foot steps - no score,
just sound design, which makes the game quite creepy.
So very much so that at one point towards the beginning of the game, a gun shot goes
off.
As to where it came from or what was shot, well, that's a mystery.
But it's one hell of a jump scare.
9 Until Dawn - Shooting Wendigos From the horror game Until Dawn, there's
a few moments where you have to use a gun to defend yourself from Wendigos - humanoid
creatures who attack a group of friends staring at a lodge in Alberta, Canada.
And it's life or death in those moments - you need to make sure you hit them or else
you'll be dead.
All eight characters in the game can be killed or kept alive depending on the decisions you
make, and in this particular sequence with Chris, you're running through the forest
for your life as Wendigos attack you.
8 Lara Croft Rise of the Tomb Raider While Rise of the Tomb Raider had solid aspirations
in terms of really showing some character growth for Lara aside from just being a sex
symbol, the game had one flaw that many people couldn't help but notice - the fact that
the violence towards Lara and her death animations played out like torture porn.
There's a few instances in the game where she's brutally shot and killed or even does
the killing herself that make for a pretty intense gun moment.
Although in comparison to some of the impalements, its a walk in the park.
7 Super Columbine Massacre RPG This is an entry on our list where almost
the entirety of the game is a scary gun moment.
Built using RPG Maker 2000, this highly controversial game puts players in the roles of Columbine
shooters Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.
The game uses digitized versions of photographs and voice samples throughout, recreating the
attacks.
It's disturbing despite being 16-bit, and received a ton of criticism, even though creator
Danny Ledonne emphasized it's purpose as an art game, with it being an expression of
how he felt towards the shooting and it's aftermath.
6 Hatred While one can try to justify Super Columbine
Massacre RPG as an art game, Hatred is a little harder to argue for.
Hatred is a game where you play a misanthropic mass killing sociopath on what he terms as
a genocide crusade.
Also, beautifully designed, just saying.
Developed by Destruction Creations, the game was suppose to be a response to the increasing
trend of political correctness, politeness, and games as art within the gaming industry.
While the whole game could qualify for this list, the Antagonist (aka the name of the
character you play) has a monologue at the beginning of his spree that ends with you
starting to kill screaming NPCs begging for mercy.
It's intense.
5 The Walking Dead - Duck's Death In classic Walking Dead fashion, there's
a scene in season 1 of the game that features a little boy, named Duck, who has been infected.
So the group does the only thing they can do - they prepare to shoot him.
His parents want one last opportunity to say goodbye to their boy before it's done, but
in the process, his mother kills himself, unable to withstand the pain.
4 Life is Strange - Chloe is Shot Life is Strange is an incredibly emotional
game that, similar to Until Dawn, the decisions you make will effect the outcome of the game,
and certain events.
During one of the games' chapters, your best friend Chloe is accidentally shot.
And it's quite the shock.
But the game has a feature in which protagonist Max can turn back time - with dire consequences
of course.
But in this instance, Max has been drugged, and can't rewind, leading to Chloe's death.
3 The Last of Us - Sarah's death The Last of Us is an incredibly emotional
game.
It manages to give you an excellent gameplay experience all while really bringing the feels
story wise.
And it does this right off the bat, when we witness Joel's daughter Sarah dying, brutally
murdered in front of him by the military.
2 Spec Ops the line - White Phosphorous While this isn't a gun in the traditional
sense, this sequence still counts as pretty horrific, even though it's white phosphorus
being shot out of a cannon.
White Phosphorus munitions are a highly effective smoke producing agent that is self igniting.
Meaning it can do things like burn off clothes, skin, even break down bone in some cases.
So when it's used it Spec Ops the line, it was controversial.
And incredibly effective it terms of putting the player in a morally questionable situation.
You don't have a choice in the matter when using it - you have a certain amount of time
to bomb the army below, all while seeing your own reflection in the screen, growing more
apparent as it gets foggier.
Then, you have to walk through the chaos you've caused.
It's terrifying and disturbing all at once, once you see the ramifications your actions
have had.
And for a game that felt it wasn't the cream of the crop in terms of well developed first
person shooters, the questions it raises about morality and excess in video games makes playing
it worth while.
1 Call of Duty In likely the most disturbing mission in Call
of Duty history, the 'No Russian' mission forces you to work with a group of terrorists
whom you're infiltrating.
And in order to infiltrate properly, you htop 10 best games to play on halloween ave to
do what they say in order to not raise suspicion.
To our dismay, that meant helping this group of terrorists shoot down a bunch of civilians
at an airport.
Similar to our last number, players are forced with a skewed moral decision as they must
walk around the airport and murder innocent people.
Being a bit of an all too real nightmare these days, No Russian hits too close to home for
some of us.
There we have it.
