* Before the invention of the bayonet, early gunpowder age infantry would often be split into musketeers and pikemen. The muskets fired too slowly, inaccurately, and with too short a range to reliably defend [[AntiCavalry against cavalry charges]], and proved less then adequate in hand to hand fighting. Therefore, it was the pikemen's job to keep the horsemen at bay with a medieval style pike formation, while also serving as a buffer between the gunmen and hand to hand combat. The Bayonet revolutionized things by turning the musket into a spear, allowing a musketeer to both shoot volleys and stop cavalry, all while not being useless at hand to hand. Due to the early musket's aforementioned disadvantages, bayonet charges also served as a surprisingly effective means charging enemy infantry, something a single shot gun could hardly be used for. The bayonet started out not as an emergency weapon, but as primary form of armament.

* Imperial monks' rifles are equipped with bayonets in ''FinalFantasyX'' though they never use them.
* In ''ParasiteEve 2'', one of the numerous [[GunAccessories attachments]] you could get for the assault-rifle was... a humble Bayonet. Considering that you could, instead, mount it with a [[FireBreathingWeapon flamethrower]], a triple-size magazine, a giant [[StaticStunGun Taser]], or FrickinLaserBeams, you probably won't use it. Ever ... unless you play on '[[HarderThanHard Nightmare]]' difficulty, where most of the good weapons and attachments simply aren't there, and ammo is rare. Then that bayonet becomes a lifesaver which will carry you through the later half of the game.

Cut to the ''A Card To Play'' cinematic in the shipped game, where BadAssNormal General Warfield is ambushed by the Zerg and runs out of ammo. He brings out the bayonet and... [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome the rest is history]]. TakeThat indeed.
