10 Items That BROKE Video Games

10. Never-Ending Double Barrel Shotgun - Fallout 4

Most agree that Fallout 4 was a mixed bag of hits and misses, but one of its best features is weapon customization.

Being able to swap out receivers, barrels, sights, and other gun stuff makes the game's somewhat narrow range of weapons a lot more versatile, allowing you to really define the kind of fighter you want to be. However, when it comes to weapons with randomized legendary effects, it also makes breaking the game easy.

Take the "never-ending" effect, for example - the ability to shoot a gun without ever having to reload. You still use ammo, but you never have to stop for a reload animation. For a lot of guns, that isn't a huge deal, as they're still ultimately limited by the small delay between shots.

However, what makes the never-ending double barrel shotgun so game-breaking is that it has no cap to how fast you can fire it. Yes, there are stronger weapons in terms of raw damage, but when you can charge through hallways blasting off shells as fast as you can move your finger, raw damage becomes a little bit moot.
