History Main / KillStreak

May overlap with AwesomenessMeter if an unbroken kill streak contributes to filling it.

** ''Call of Duty 4: ModernWarfare'' has three: a [[EnemyDetectingRadar UAV]] (3), an [[DeathFromAbove Air Strike]] (5) and a [[BigDamnGunship Attack Helecopter]] (7)

** ''ModernWarfare 2'': Introduces Death Streaks as well, giving a player who is suffering a string of losses a helping hand to turn the tide. While the player can only equip three Kill Streak rewards at a time, they have an expanded list to choose from, all the way from UAV's (3) and sentry guns (5) up to {{EMP}}'s (15) and [[NukeEmTactical Nukes]] (25) (AKA, 'The "I Win" button')

* ''[[BattlefieldSeries Battlefield Bad Company 2]]'': Rewards players with a medal for kill streaks over 4 kills long.
* Recent games in the ''CallOfDuty'' / ''ModernWarfare'' series have deployable kill streak rewards for reaching certain streak counts in multiplayer:

** Ditto again for TeamFortress2 server-side mods.

* As seen in the pic, the ''SuperMarioBros'' series, whether it be multiple {{Goomba Stomp}}s or using a shell.

* ''TheClub'': Designed around this.
* ''DevilMayCry'': Awards you for killing multiple enemies ''[[NintendoHard without taking any damage at all]]''.
* ''{{Halo}}'': the AnnouncerChatter uses [[{{Crunchtastic}} fictional adjectives involving the word "kill"]].

* ''[[BattlefieldSeries Battlefield Bad Company 2]]'': Rewards players with a medal for kill streaks over 4 kills long.
* ''TeamFortress2'': Some achievements involve this (often with extra conditions, such as using a particular weapon).
* ''UnrealTournament'': Features special names for the various numbers of kills, which the announcer calls out: [[MemeticMutation M-M-M-M-MONSTER KILL!!]] and in later games, "HOLY SHIT!" It also reserves "MONSTER KILL!!" for sufficiently large combos. Huge runs without death end up with "GODLIKE!!" and in later games "WICKED SICK!".
** The ''{{Warcraft}} 3'' map/mod DOTA uses these sounds as well.
* ''HouseOfTheDead'': In ''Overkill'', you can climb up the violence ladder the more kills you get without missing or being hurt. Extreme Violence, Hardcore Violence, Ultra Violence, Psychotic, and finally ''Goregasm'' (which is accompanied by a waving American flag) - each condition increases the amount of points a kill will net you, and as such a long Goregasm is a definite requirement for a high score.
* ''TransformersWarForCybertron''

Let's be honest, anyone can get a couple kills by just mashing random buttons and hoping for the best. It takes an entirely different class of player to continue getting kills without dying or even taking damage. Because of this, many VideoGames appropriately reward players who can perform some feats with special bonuses, exclusive titles, or even hidden content.
