7 Insanely Powerful Joke Video Game Characters
2. Jim Chapman - Resident Evil: Outbreak
Bless you Jim, on paper you really are bloody useless, aren't you?
Deciding to one-up the old adage of "bringing a knife to a gunfight" Jim from Resident Evil: Outbreak decided to bring a coin to a zombie apocalypse! Not the most useful or immediate thing you'd think to take on the undead masses with right? This plus his skinny appearance and timid nature sure make him stand out amongst the Barry Burtons and Jill Valentines of the Resi universe.
However, underneath this teeth-chattering veneer is quite possibly one of the most broken and badass zombie slayers in the entire franchise! You see the coin that Jim carries with him has a unique buff of boosting his chances to land a critical hit by 15% if it lands on heads, and when you learn that you can stack this three times it gives him a whopping 45% chance to send foes flying! That's insane!
Suddenly any weapon you pick up can pie off ankle bitters in short order, and even the tankier characters will end up falling in line behind Jim and his mythical pipe of destiny! Where once he was turning tail and running, if he flips three heads in a row, he'll be caving yours in before you know it.
