Line 16:
* [[Back Stab]]: No matter what you hit an enemy with, as long as their back is turned it's a one hit kill.
* [[Backstory]]: Accessible by playing the co-op mode.
* [[Badass Normal]]: Shank has nothing on [[God of War (Video Gameseries)|Kratos]], that we can assure you.
* [[Bag of Spilling]]: A variation; at the start of the second game, Shank starts off with a pair of machete (likely the same pair he used in the first game) as his "heavy" weapon, and throwing knives for ranged attacks. He eventually gets his starting combo from the first game (pair of handguns and a chainsaw) as he progresses.
* [[Beauty Is Never Tarnished]]: The aversion thereof is the reason for {{spoiler|Cassandra}}'s vendetta against Shank.
Line 35:
** In the same game, there is a picture of Shank and Falcone located in the Hotel level.
* [[Death Cry Echo]]
* [[Determinator]]: Shank holds his own next to ''[[Max Payne (Video Gameseries)|Max Payne]]'' for sheer [[Made of Iron|iron plating]]; he's in potentially worse shape by the end of the game, and is running on his own badassitude and ''[[Booze-Based Buff|booze]]''.
* [[Dies Wide Open]]: Most bosses. Shank leaves them like that most of the time, but he closes {{spoiler|Cesar's}} eyes.
* [[Distaff Counterpart]]: Arguably Corina in the sequel.
Line 53:
* [[Goddamned Bats]]: The attack dogs.
* [[Grenade Launcher]]: The larger enemies sometimes carry these.
* [[Guest Fighter]]: [[Death Spank (Video Game)|Death Spank]]! And [[God of War (Video Gameseries)|Kratos!]]
* [[Guns Akimbo]]: You start off with two pistols in the first game.
* [[Homage]]: To the bloody B-level action movies of the 1970s, most likely, a la [[Machete]].
Line 76:
* [[More Dakka]]: From SMGs to freaking miniguns!
* [[Mirror Boss]]: {{spoiler|Cesar}} is more-or-less this for Shank, fighting in almost the same manner. {{spoiler|Including pouncing on you near the end of the fight.}}
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: Shank. [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|He certainly does.]]
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: {{spoiler|Cesar's}} death ignites a gang war that becomes big enough to require an entire extragovernmental militia to stop it. Said militia then overthrew the government. Nice one, Shank.
* [[No Kill Like Overkill]]: You can continue to beat up enemies even after they've died.
