10 Joke Video Game Weapons (That Are Secretly INCREDIBLY Powerful)
10. The Quacker - Crackdown 2
By and large, Crackdown 2 was a huge letdown because it borrowed too much from its predecessor while making few significant changes or advancements. However, one saving grace was that it turned an almost useless easter egg from the first game – The Quacker – into an adorably fatal device.
Specifically, and as its name suggests, The Quacker is a sticky grenade disguised as a duck. Equally fitting is the fact that it’s found at the Funland amusement park (at the Chuck’s Ducks 2 stall after the area is seized from terrorist organization the Cell).
Once planted, its eyes glow red and it emits a lovable quacking sound, eagerly awaiting your overpowered officer protagonist to hit the detonation button. When you do, it explodes with enough energy to severely damage – if not instantly obliterate – everything around it (including buildings, enemies, and even armored vehicles).
Without a doubt, it’s one rubber ducky you don’t want to toy around with in the bath.
