Firing One-Handed: Difference between revisions

* In [[Jurassic Park]]: [[Trespasser]], main character Anne uses all weapons one handed, due to her other arm being broken (read: not being programmed into the game). This includes rifles. And an ''extremely heavy metal mace''.

* In ''[[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Golden Eye 1997]]'' on the Nintendo 64, one bonus mission has Jaws coming at you with dual ''<s>M-16s</s> [[AKA-47|AR-33's]]'', which you can use if you take him down. With the all weapons cheat, this extends to everything from submachineguns to ''rocket launchers''.

** There's also a glitch that can be done with the all weapons cheat that allows you to mix up weapons, resulting in such combinations as having an RCP-90 in one hand with a shotgun in the other, or somehow managing to use the Moonraker Laser in tandem with the Watch Laser (which altogether, would require ''three'' hands to operate).

* In ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'', the Heavy doesn't use his shotgun with one hand to fire, but he does [[Super Strength|twirl it around like a pistol in a taunt.]]

* Plenty of people use sawed-off shotguns in ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'', but [[Hot Chick in a Badass Suit|Kyrie]] is the only one to wield it one-handed, which makes quite a sharp contrast among them. You can really tell that under her [[Cool Big Sis]] personality, she's not to be trifled with.

* In ''[[X-COM (Video Game)|X-COM]]'', weapons that do not automatically take up both hand slots can be fired one-handed, but if the other hand is not empty, accuracy drops ([http://ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Accuracy_formula to 80% base]). Of course, accuracy is penalized for critical wounds on both arms if both are involved (by 10%, thus with more than 1 wounds to the off hand, may as well fire one-handed). The character models, however, will always show your characters firing them one-handed.

 

* In ''[[The Last Days of Foxhound]]'', Sniper Wolf occasionally uses her rifle with just one hand. But that's a [[Charles Atlas Superpower]] for you...

* In ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'', Dr. McNinja doesn't usually use guns, but he apparently makes exceptions for a [[Zombie Apocalypse]], where he wields a ''shotgun'' [https://web.archive.org/web/20091205084547/http://drmcninja.com/page.php?pageNum=27&issue=8 in one hand] and his sword in the other.
