10 Overpowered Video Game Weapons That Made You Rage Quit

10. M16A4 - Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Believe it or not, Call of Duty's first modern-day outing had a suite of different ordnance types all vying for a spot in your soldier's space-limited loadout, but Call of Duty 4's problem was never a lack of variety.

Rather, unless you fancied gimping yourself in battle, the only logical choice for filling your avatar's hands would be the M16A4, such is its all-encompassing power.

Introducing a highly versatile piece of kit into an otherwise skill-based environment is always bound to cause issues. The M16A4 didn't eliminate that entirely, but it did narrow the gap between top-tier and newcomer thanks to obnoxious aim assist and an inbuilt ability to kill in a single burst regardless of which body part took the brunt of its force.

Infinity Ward opted not to reign in its ferocity through subsequent patches. A mistake if ever we saw one, considering the rifle, to an extent, singlehandedly shaped the meta and invalidated player choice.
