* ''[[Starsiege]]''
* In ''[[Star Ocean: Till the End of Time]]'', one of the enemies in Moon Base are spider mechs. And they are also [[Demonic Spiders]], due to their very deadly attacks. They also occupy a huge portion of walkable space, so it's very hard to avoid fighting them.
* ''[[Mechwarrior]] 2'' has a bonus mech, appropriately named "Tarantula", that fits this. It's a bit of a hack, in that the engine isn't natively capable of handling four-legged mechs, so the fore legs of the Tarantula are actually its arms. Which can cause bizarre damage effects: shoot off one of the hind legs and you get a three-legged Tarantula unable to move, but shoot both fore legs and it'll still cheerfully hop about on just the hind ones. And if you shoot off both fore legs and one hind leg, it'll stay there suspended and unmoving on... one leg.
* ''[[Deus Ex]]'' has both the small, annoying kind, and the absolutely huge, terrifying kind. Both shoot electricity that, on top of inflicting actual damage, also drains the energy you use for your augmentations.
