* HitScan: The shotgun, the Uzi, and the Galil.

* BottomlessMagazines / EmergencyWeapon: The shotgun has the slowest firing rate of any weapon (1 and a half seconds, roughly, between firing it and doing anything else involving a weapon, like firing another shot). you start off with that and an Uzi. You WILL use the shotgun for most of the first 3 levels, at least. The shotgun has infinite ammo. The Uzi does not.

** A note related to bodies: "Booby traps or spontaneous human combustion?"

* AWinnerIsYou: A medal image and a text reading "Victory" are your only rewards in the floppy version.

* SceneryGorn: One of the last levels is badly destroyed. Also, you can turn pretty much any other level into this with a grenade launcher, optionally a flamethrower and a decent supply of ammo.

* NintendoHard: Some of the levels where you have no allies.

** Also, enemies will try to take a straight path to you, and then try following a wall to get to you if that doesn't work.

A [[RealIsBrown tremendously brown]] FirstPersonShooter made using a derivative of the ''VideoGame/Wolfenstein3D'' engine. Developed by Capstone Software (who was also responsible for {{Corridor7}}), it gives an excuse plot of militant terrorists taking over the United Nations Towers and holding ambassadors hostage on the top floor.

A [[RealIsBrown tremendously brown]] FirstPersonShooter made using a derivative of the ''VideoGame/Wolfenstein3D'' engine. Developed by Capstone Software (who was also responsible for {{Corridor7}}), it gives an excuse plot of militant terrorists taking over the United Nations Towers and holding ambassadors hostage on the top floor. The first five (approximately) levels take place in a sewer, where you have [[GoddamnedBats Goddamned Rats]] and [[DemonicSpiders Demonic Slime Monsters]] to deal with, and then you get into the first of the two towers and the game starts to pull out all the stops. In each floor, you must kill a certain number of enemies before continuing on to the next floor. While in Tower One, you have three allies, which you can switch between. However, if the person you are controlling dies, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZVrybPjiu0 you lose.]]

There is a demo for this game. Anyone expressing any interest in playing this game would be better off just playing the demo, even though you don't have any allies in the demo. The full game is just not worth it. Trust us.

!!Things Operation Body Count did right:

!!Things Operation Body Count got horribly, horribly wrong:
* ArtificialStupidity: Your allies can - and will - step right in front of you just in time to get shot. On the flip side, free armor!

* InterfaceScrew: Killing people at close range can cause a blood splatter on your screen. Getting hit by the sewer monsters will cause part of your screen to be covered in sewer gunk. The map happens to be drawn UNDER the blood splatters and sewer gunk.
* LuckBasedMission: Game Mode "R." For those without a manual, this is RANDOM ENEMY PLACEMENT. This means you could get swarmed with giant rats in the first level without even having a chance to fire. Otherwise, it's identical to Game Mode "3" (HARD).

* DroneJam: You can walk through your allies. You can step over small rats. Anything else that moves and gets in your way, you shoot to get out of your way.
