9 Video Game Guns That DON'T Kill

7. Psychosis Gun - Perfect Dark

"Guns don't kill people. People kill people", as the saying goes. To which Perfect Dark replies: "What if someone made a gun that makes people kill people?"

While there's definitely a spirited philosophical debate to be had over the idea, Perfect Dark's Psychosis Gun wisely focuses on simpler pleasures. Simple pleasures such as brainwashing a goon for hire and watching as they brutally murder their friends and colleagues at your behest.

Gaming heroes have questionable morality at the best of times, (who can forget Uncharted 2's villain asking protagonist Nathan Drake "How many people have you killed? Just today, how many?") and the brain-washing, free-will removing Psychosis Gun makes it impossible to feel like you're anything but the bad guy.

So you might as well go all the way with it! Turn on unlimited ammo, abandon any sense of fair play and laugh heartily as your enemies mow each other down. (Bonus points for doing the above while swirling a glass of red wine and stroking a cat at the same time).
