10 Video Game "Super Soldiers" That Were Completely Useless

5. The Halo Series: Hunters

Hunters in the Halo series are literal walking tanks who serve as the most devastating forces in the army of the Covenant. These tank destroyers are armored head to toe in unbreakable materials and armed with a devastating plasma cannon that can tear normal soldiers to shreds and can punch cars clear across the map.

When first encountered these hive-minded warriors seemed to be unstoppable but after several games, it became clear these troops were not as invincible as they appeared. This is because while the Hunters are covered in super heavy armor on their front their backs are left completely exposed.

These Achilles' backs are vulnerable to every single kind of weapon available in Master Chief's collection. Grenades, handguns, shotguns, even just using his bare fists. As long as they are agile, even the smallest grunt in the Covenant can take down the Hunters with a well-placed sticky grenade.
