Line 60:
** [[The Dragon|The Cyberdemon]] requires ''a lot'' of damage to be killed, 45 rocket hits, 55 shotgun blasts, or 400 handgun shots. No matter how much damage he's taken, he never shows so much as a dent until he is killed, but his only death animation is him exploding and leaving behind a pair of bloodied hooves. You can shoot him in the face with a shotgun 54 times, and he still has no visible damage, but he would vaporize when next hit by ''[[Critical Existence Failure|one bullet]]''.
*** Quick note, those numbers are averages, as the game has a random number generator for damage.
** There's a mod called [https://web.archive.org/web/20131022235939/http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=16484 "Beautiful Doom"] which, among other things, increases the gibs to, well, ludicrous levels.
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLKZhu_dgxA&feature=related Brutal Doom] does this to such levels that the room you're in is ''literally'' painted with blood. Not to mention the facts that you can perform a [[Fatality]] while in berserk mode in the same gore-happy fashion as ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'', that mouth monsters can literally bite your torso off, and that the chainsaw can actually hack away at body parts with impressive results.
** In ''Doom 3'' the shotgun packs enough punch that if you hit a zombie with it at point blank range you'll ''tear all the flesh off its bones,'' reducing it to a bloodied skeleton.
Line 122:
*** A new gametype was recently introduced in ''Left 4 Dead 2'': [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Gib-Fest.]] All players have [[BFG|M60 machine guns]] with [[More Dakka|unlimited ammo]]. It's...spectacular.
*** The Explosive/Frag Ammo bumps up the gibbing to new levels. A stray bullet from this ammo type will SHRED common infected to pieces.
* The otherwise unremarkable shooter ''Conspiracy: Weapons of Mass Destruction'' has a post-game cheat that lets players '''[https://web.archive.org/web/20100829080718/http://www.viddler.com/explore/MoominBiscuit/videos/57/ punch enemies until they explode into burning gibs].''' This is presumably worth the price of admission in itself.
* In ''[[Red Faction]] 2'' there is a that makes all shots on infantry a one hit kill, with lots of ''gibs'' and if you shot a friendly NPC with a LMG, you get lots and lots of gibs, and there is no friendly fire.... Priceless!!
* ''[[Strife]]'', being the last game using the Doom engine, makes use of this trope. In addition, it provided special, gib-like animations for enemies that were immolated by your flame weapons or disintegrated by your [[Disintegrator Ray]].
