Big Freaking Gun: Difference between revisions

** ''[[Resident Evil 5]]'' ups the ante even further by having four Big Freaking Guns exclusive to boss fights: when fighting the El Gigante clone, Chris and Sheva are using a minigun and PK Machine Gun mounted on a Humvee; there's a flamethrower used to fight one particularly tough monster; when fighting {{spoiler|Excella}} you use a {{spoiler|laser satellite tracker similar to the Hammer of Dawn of ''Gears of War'' fame}}; and of course the traditional RPG finisher on {{spoiler|Wesker}} in the final boss fight. And since this is a co-op based game, {{spoiler|Wesker gets TWO rocket launchers to the face. With a quick-time event and everything.}}

** Since [[Contemporary Caveman|CHRIS BIG]], Chris can also get a handheld minigun as an unlockable reward; it's the same type as wielded in both games by boss enemies, and comes with a [[Interface Screw|huge, vision-obscuring backpack]].

* The ''[[Ratchet & Clank|Ratchet and Clank]]'' series, where nearly every gun (and there are a lot of them) is at ''least'' half the size of the protagonist. As they [[Evolving Attack|upgrade]], they soon match the name on the firepower scale, too. This didn't stop them from making a Big Freaking Gun so FB, that it actually warranted a ''new acronym'': the '''R'''ip '''Y'''ou a '''N'''ew '''O'''ne. What's more, the RYNO was only the ''first in a series of four guns'' ([[Ratchet & Clank (video game)|RYNO]], [[Ratchet and Clank Going Commando|RYNO II]], [[Ratchet and Clank Up Your Arsenal|RYN3O]]/[[Evolving Attack|RYNOCERATOR]], and [[Ratchet and Clank Future Tools of Destruction|RYNO IV/RYNO 4-EVER]]). Mind you, the last one never past the blueprint stage because it was deemed too powerful. ''This coming from a company that created a portable black hole launcher and [[Colony Drop]]ping handguns''.

** RYNOs actually got smaller between the first and third games - the RY3NO is physically smaller than Ratchet (although not by much), while the original...isn't quite so compact.
