''VideoGame/{{Doom}}''. To elaborate, if you fire it into a room full of players in deathmatch, you can take out most or all of the room in a suicide rush. If you have quad damage too, it's slices through everyone like lava. In single player, it's extremely lethal too and you can save a QuadDamage in your inventory to make a group of enemies a joke.
** The Railgun is ''Quake 2'''s version of a SniperRifle. Its base damage is 150, enough to kill most enemies, including unarmored players in MP, [[OneHitKill in one shot]]. The Railgun also has a ridiculously high ammo limit, works as a substitute to the Super Shotgun at close range, and is perfectly accurate fired from the hip.

** ''Ground Zero'''s turrets trump all in the frustration factor, the blaster turret in particular. There's a ''score'' of reasons why they're demonic spiders. For one, they're far too tough - you need at least three rockets or two railgun slugs to destroy one. Secondly, their projectiles hurt (the Blaster turret, the weakest of the three variants, hits for a ridiculous ''20'' points of damage!), they fire twice as fast as a stationary Gladiator, and save for the railgun turret, they can LeadTheTarget. Number three, deployed ones are completely silent when not firing, so you'll only know one is around after they've fired, and by then there's no way to dodge. And worst of all, they are ''''''fucking EVERYWHERE''''', to the point where they break the regular gameplay flow and force the player on a PixelHunt if they want to stay alive.

* HarsherInHindsight: By way of an EasterEgg in the first level, players will find that the PlayerCharacter in this game is called Bitterman. ''VideoGame/QuakeIIIArena''' revealed in [[AllThereInTheManual the manual]] that this is his nickname, and also reveals that the Strogg experimented on him. All of this becomes somehow disturbing when [[VideoGame/QuakeIV another later game]] shows this [[spoiler:Stroggification scene]] but with another PlayerCharacter.

** The N64 port. It has completely new levels and a different story, but the animation takes a noticeable hit and the crouching is removed.
** The Playstation version averted this, although some features and a lot of levels are missing due to the limitations of the controller. But at the same time it had its fair share of unique content to make up for this (mainly visual effects such as lens flares, but in particular there are more Strogg types; the [[BossInMookClothing twin-railgun Arachnid]] and [[spoiler:the giant 'Guardian', a foe ''physically bigger than [[BigBad Makron's]] [[PoweredArmor Jorg Suit]]'', which holds the Anti-Matter Bomb you need to destroy the Gravity Booster)]].
