Half-Life 2 is a video game filled with incredible moments, though few are as genuinely jaw-dropping as when the already amazing Gravity Gun gets a fancy new upgrade in the chapter Our Benefactors, by coming into contact with the Citadel's Confiscation Field. The newly supercharged Gravity Gun can now kill human enemies, allowing Gordon to wreak havoc on any incoming Combine soldiers. And boy, does this chapter allow you to do that or what? Within moments of obtaining the upgrade, Gordon is inundated with Combine to take down, resulting in easily the most ludicrously entertaining and insane section of the game. The enemies die like extras in a Steven Seagal movie, and rarely has any game made the player feel so awesomely powerful. What's more satisfying than vaporising bad guys and throwing objects at them with enormous levels of force? Nothing, that's what.
