Hideo Kojima's final entry in the legendary MGS saga isn't necessarily known for its violence, despite an ad campaign featuring a blood-soaked Snake at the centre.

However, come the moment you have to see if scientist Huey Emmerich knows more about Skull Face's plans than he's letting on, Ocelot starts getting a bit carried away with himself. See, Huey has mechanically operated legs, meaning that despite him being 'crippled', he can still stand up and complete basic upright tasks.

Ocelot gets behind the controls of these limbs (comprised of metal struts that run down the side of his legs, and are fused into his bones) and sets about bending them the wrong way...

Yup, it's as cringey as it sounds, and although nothing fully snaps, the fact Huey is a target despite his guilt not being proven, his existence as a weaker member of the team and the sheer sight of someone's leg inverting, makes it worth of inclusion here.
