8 Broken Video Game Weapons EVERYONE Exploited

1. Farsight XR-20

You have to love the sheer gall that developers Rare approached their seminal classic Perfect Dark with. On the one hand, they were riding high on the monstrous success of Goldeneye and had established themselves as a team that could do multiplayer modes justice.

So what did they do with all of that goodwill? Well, they made another ridiculously entertaining multiplayer offering for Perfect Dark, yet in amidst all of this liquid smooth shooting, they placed in one weapon that literally tore everything apart.

The Farsight XR-20, a rifle with not only incredible stopping power, but the ability, and I can't believe I'm typing this, TO SEE THROUGH WALLS. How could the team have ever envisioned this going well? Suddenly a game about quick reactions and skill became a title about learning the location of this weapon on each map, rushing to it and then laughing as your friends howled in fury.

It was so bad that a common expression amongst gaming circles before anyone had even picked up a controller was "Farsight banned"
