* ''[[Urban Dead]]'': Metal Poles are possible weapons obtainable, although their base 2 damage and 10% accuracy is [[Overshadowed Byby Awesome|overshadowed]] by stronger, more accurate weapons.
* In ''[[Final Fight]]'', pipes can be used as weapons, their slow attack speed mitigated by damage and long striking range. When some of the characters from the series [[Transplant|were ported over to]] [[Shared Universe|other games set in the same universe]] (mainly ''[[Street Fighter]]''), the pipe made occasional appearances alongside them. It's brandished by [[Combat Pragmatist|Cody]] [[Batter Up|in a baseball-like fashion]] at the end of his Last Dread [[A Handful for An Eye|Dust]] [[Desperation Attack|Ultra Combo]] in ''[[Capcom Sequel Stagnation|Super]] [[Street Fighter IV (Video Game)|Street Fighter IV]]'' and is used as a special by [[Ambadassador|Haggar]] in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]''.

* [[Meaningful Name|Brick]] from ''[[Borderlands (Video Game)|Borderlands]]'' uses one as his melee weapon. Strangly, his action skill is basically putting it away and using his fists instead....
* Lots of fragile mooks in ''[[No More Heroes]]'' come at you with pipes.
* Pipes are one of the [[Improvised Weapon|Improvised Weapons]] that can be used (by ripping them off the wall) in ''[[Condemned]]''.

* Every ''[[Silent Hill]]'' game except ''Shattered Memories'' and ''0rigins'' features a pipe as a weapon.
* Pipes are also featured as weapons in the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' games.
* Both ''[[Sonny]]'' games start you off with a pipe. The [[Flavor Text]] in the second game is "Me and the pipe...we go way back".
* A pipe is the starting weapon in the first ''[[System Shock]]''. Does less damage than a basic pistol bullet, but with greater [[Critical Hit]] chance and [[Armor-Piercing Attack|armor penetration]].

** Raul uses one as his default melee weapon.
* The ''[[Half Life]]'' [[Game Mod]] ''Poke646'' has a gaspipe as its first [[Emergency Weapon]].
** In the end of ''Episode Two'', {{spoiler|Eli}} tries to attack {{spoiler|a Combine Advisor}} with a pipe, but this simply seems to have annoyed it.
* One of the many improvised weapons available in ''[[Action Doom 2 Urban Brawl|Action Doom 2: Urban Brawl]]''.
* Also one of the weapons that can be found in ''[[River City Ransom]]''. With high damage and a long range, it's a good one.
