* Anthony Williams from ''VideoGame/BadDayLA'' does this to some rude drivers on the highway he's trying to collect food on.
* In ''VideoGame/Battlefield3'' you have to perform a quicktime event to kill a rat. If you fail, the rat makes enough noise to interest a guard, who then comes over and shoots you. As your character dies, he manages to flip off the rat.
* ''VideoGame/BattleToads2020'': The Dark Queen gives the finger to the Battle Toads using her left hand after they take off in their ship without her.
* ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'' has a blink and you'll miss it moment where she flips off some angel that had just destroyed the road and then uses the finger as an ignition key for a motorbike.

* ''VideoGame/BloodwingsPumpkinheadsRevenge'': It's possible to defeat Pumpkinhead (who is a OneHitKill boss) through brute force in the final stage and ignore the puzzle completely. If you manage this, you get a cinematic where he gives you the finger instead.

** In ''VideoGame/Borderlands1'', Mordecai does this in the introduction after Marcus says he looks like a "Truxican wrestler moonlighting as a dominatrix".
** In ''VideoGame/Borderlands2'', Salvador's [[IShallTauntYou taunt skill]] "Come At Me, Bro" has him pull off a double deuce at the enemy.
* ''VideoGame/BrutalDoom'', a {{game mod}} for the classic ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'' games, gives players the ability to flip off anything with a simple push of the F key by default.

Failing the check causes the Player Character to, instead of just running away, get about half way across the room before spinning around to leap backwards towards the exit while flipping Garte off with both hands. He then crash-lands hard, because he focused too much on the rude gesture and failed to see where he was going.
* ''VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice'' has an interesting example: at two points in the story, the party battles the disembodied hand of Mao's father (said hand is large enough to stand in and hold several people at once, forming the stage). The middle digit is appropriately named "The Bird", described as "Cruel", and if it's the last unit to be fought, its "OneManArmy" Evility kicks in, doubling its stats.
* The "final trailer" for ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' showed Duke flipping off a big alien spaceship.
** While in the game itself you do this after defeating a couple of bosses. Most notably would be when he finishes off the 'Queen Bitch' and just before losing consciousness, flips her off.
* Slapping the Bile Demon in ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' will cause him to do the British version of this (the V with the palm facing away from the person)
* [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline''. You can obtain an emote called flip the bird, however this emote involves your character taking an actual bird and flipping it in the air.
* In ''VideoGame/EscapeFromMonkeyIsland'', if you have Guybrush examine the appropriate part of the hand-shaped table in the Voodoo Lady's home, he'll remark "Ah, the middle finger. The most communicative of fingers."
* Your character can do this in ''VideoGame/{{Fable}}'', and in ''VideoGame/FableII'' you can have a sculptor make statues of you doing it.
** If you fail the extended expression in the second one, you end up [[EpicFail poking yourself in the eye]].
* Rex can do this in ''Videogame/FarCry3BloodDragon'' by pressing the melee button without any enemies in range. He can even alternate hands if you do it fast enough.
* In ''[[Website/GaiaOnline zOMG!]]'', the Taunt ring draws aggro from nearby Animated. You flip one bird with three Rage Ranks, and you flip 'em both when you use full Rage. In both cases, the relevant fingers are blurred.
* In ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar3'' Cole asks politely if one of the stranded have a vessel they could borrow, the response; "Here are the keys to my luxury yacht" while giving him to finger.
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto''
** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIII'': Claude flips the bird when pedestrians honk their car horns at him.
** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'': You can do this in place of being armed while inside vehicles by pressing the Shoot button. It is also a selectable taunt when playing ''GTA Online''.
* ''VideoGame/Grezzo2'', another GameMod of ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'', has the same flip off mechanic of ''VideoGame/BrutalDoom''; just replace the original taunts with random Italian insults.
* ''VideoGame/GrimDawn'' has the epic scepter item Finger of Gar'Dalvur. The scepter's head is a skeletal hand with the middle finger extended.
--> "The fallen Gar'Dalvur had only one thing to say to his executioners."
* ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'': Sol Badguy does this as the Respect variation of his taunt, surprisingly enough. International versions censor this to a thumbs-up, making the taunt more "[[JustForPun respectful]]", in a sense. (Ironic, considering that the thumbs-up can definitely also mean "up yours" in certain cultures.)
* Pedestrians can do this in ''VideoGame/{{Infamous}}'' to Cole if they hate him or thieves that they hang with a rope by their feet which he can free.
* ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'':
** Daxter gives this to Pecker in ''VideoGame/Jak3Wastelander'' after yet another argument between the two, right in front of Jak, the king of Spargus, and an audience (who all gasp in unison). It was censored by showing it off-screen.
** In ''VideoGame/JakXCombatRacing'' Pecker gives one to G. T. Blitz, this time censored by {{Pixellation}} (justified since it happens on TV).
* In ''[[https://youtu.be/ReUH5rbrJ60 Kung Fu Chivalry]]'', the ending portrait of the bruised and battered RoguesGallery depicts the female boss giving the player the finger.
* Ellie does this to Bill in ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' when he scolds her for messing with his magazine pile.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel III'' has Ash Carbide giving [[TheHero Rean]] the middle finger after Rean and Ash talk about Ash's circumstances, Rean encouraging him to move forward, and Rean wishing his student a good night's rest.
* Can be done in ''VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet 2'' and ''[=LittleBigPlanet=] 3'':
** In the second game, in the level "Pipe Dreams" in the Factory of a Better Tomorrow, there's a moment where you have to pull levers to move fingers on a hand to form the hand that rockers use. However, you can also choose to put up just the middle finger, which will cause a sign that reads "Denied" to cover the offending finger until you put up another finger or take the middle one down.
** In the "The Journey Home" level kit in the third game, one of the levels is based on the Factory of a Better Tomorrow, and the hand from the above paragraph makes a reappearance in a 2-player section. You have to put the pinky and index fingers in the same position that you had to in the second game, but you can also just put up the middle finger again, causing another "Denied" sign to come down and Clive to say "Nice try. We have policies against that."
* ''VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw'': At the end of the fight with the first boss, Zed, Juliet cuts off his hand, which lands in the appropriate position.
** In what may be the best possible encapsulation of her character, Mariska gives Juliet the finger, and then turns her hand around into a peace sign.
* In the World Builder game ''LS Jumble'', one of the player's default attacks is "Raise Middle Finger".
* Jack Cayman of ''VideoGame/MadWorld'' has a variation of this, though he replaces "Middle Finger" with "Chainsaw from his arm".
* ''VideoGame/MeatBoy'': Dr. Fetus is quite fond of this gesture, to the point that his biometric hand scanner in ''Forever'' is programmed to scan his middle finger pressed against the screen. Meat Boy and Bandage Girl's daughter Nugget at one point even [[BabySeeBabyDo copies Dr. Fetus by flipping off butterflies]].
* The "Sweet Goodbye" achievement in ''VideoGame/MirrorsEdge''. This is achieved by jumping forward, doing a 180 degree turn while in the air and then pressing the attack button in quick succession. This will make Faith flash a two-finger salute while falling backwards.
* ''VideoGame/Payday2'' has an interesting variation: If you put a sight on a gun, you can replace the red dot that comes with it with a hand flipping the bird. SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome occurs as it is exactly as CoolButInefficient as it sounds, the red dot or crosshair being the much more BoringButPractical option.
* ''VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2'': Not in the game itself, but early concept art for Roxie showed her using her middle finger to do a EyelidPullTaunt. Evidently, another member of the art team realized this and had it changed to something completely different.
* ''VideoGame/Postal2'' has [=NPCs=] do this on occasion when annoyed, whether at you or another NPC. The ''Paradise Lost'' DLC allows you to do it, too, by pressing the button normally used to shout at people to get down without a weapon equipped.
* The Japanese version of the [=TurboGrafx=]-16 shooter ''Psychosis'' has one from the creature seen in between stages.
* ''VideoGame/QuestForGloryII'' has this as an example of DevelopersForesight, where one can actually use the command "give Ferrari the bird".
* In ''VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege'', Dokkaebi gives the reverse V sign to Thatcher. after that training.
-->''Thatcher:''Don't worry, maybe we'll get them right next time.\\
''Dokkaebi:''Two more seconds and we would have had eyes in the room.\\
''Thatcher:''They were already on cameras. That's two seconds too slow\\
Thatcher slams the door in front of Dokkaebi then Dokkaebi gives him a V-Sign in reverse.
* ''VideoGame/RockStarAteMyHamster'' has a hardcore rocker giving his best middle-finger salute on the title screen of the UsefulNotes/ZXSpectrum version.
* ''VideoGame/SaintsRow'': A selectable taunt for The Boss.
* In ''VideoGame/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'', Todd does this a lot -- even in the pre-fight closeup. Kim does this as well, but only if her hand is behind another character's head; if she's the only player, the expression becomes a thumbs-down.
* ''VideoGame/SouthParkTheFracturedButWhole'' has a few [[DrawAggro aggro control]] moves, some of which involve this. Craig's Shining Hate Finger has him flip off a single target, while the New Kid's [[LimitBreak "Dragon Swagger"]] summons a spirit dragon that flips off everyone with both claws.
* Of all games, ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' has Wolf flipping off the camera in his intro when you fight him in Adventure Mode.
* In ''VideoGame/SurgeonSimulator2013'' you control a seemingly disembodied hand and are given the ability to control each individual finger. Obviously, flipping the bird is what most players do at one point or another. [[DevelopersForesight There's even an achievement for that.]]
* In ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'', [[AxCrazy Agria]] gleefully does this to Leia [[spoiler:as she falls to her doom after rejecting the latter's attempt to save her]]. Though only in the Japanese version of the game.
* Paulie 'Wheels of Fury' Ryan salutes the PlayerCharacter this way when teams are chosen in ''VideoGame/TonyHawksUnderground 2''. It's blurred out, though, because the game's rated T.
--> "[[StealthInsult You're number one!]]"
* During the third song of ''VideoGame/TheTrickyMod'', [[WebAnimation/MadnessCombat Tricky the Clown]] flips [[PlayerCharacter the Boyfriend]] off in one of his animations. By this point in the mod, the AxCrazy clown is currently undergoing a VillainousBreakdown of [[OneWingedAngel improbable]] proportions, so it's somewhat justified.
** The gesture is also a MythologyGag for the ''WebAnimation/MadnessCombat'' fan game, "Madness Accelerant" which had Tricky doing the same gesture.
* The player's farewell to Nines Rodriguez in the Independent ending of ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines.''
* In ''Videogame/WorldOfWarcraft'', [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent male Worgen]] do the two-fingered variant as their "rude" emote, probably thanks to their [[IAmVeryBritish British accents]].

** While in the game itself you do this after defeating a couple of bosses. Most notably would be when he finishes off the 'Queen Bitch' and just before losing consciousness, flips her off.
* Slapping the Bile Demon in ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' will cause him to do the British version of this (the V with the palm facing away from the person)
* [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline''. You can obtain an emote called flip the bird, however this emote involves your character taking an actual bird and flipping it in the air.
* In ''VideoGame/EscapeFromMonkeyIsland'', if you have Guybrush examine the appropriate part of the hand-shaped table in the Voodoo Lady's home, he'll remark "Ah, the middle finger. The most communicative of fingers."
* Your character can do this in ''VideoGame/{{Fable}}'', and in ''VideoGame/FableII'' you can have a sculptor make statues of you doing it.
** If you fail the extended expression in the second one, you end up [[EpicFail poking yourself in the eye]].
* Rex can do this in ''Videogame/FarCry3BloodDragon'' by pressing the melee button without any enemies in range. He can even alternate hands if you do it fast enough.
* In ''[[Website/GaiaOnline zOMG!]]'', the Taunt ring draws aggro from nearby Animated. You flip one bird with three Rage Ranks, and you flip 'em both when you use full Rage. In both cases, the relevant fingers are blurred.
* In ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar3'' Cole asks politely if one of the stranded have a vessel they could borrow, the response; "Here are the keys to my luxury yacht" while giving him to finger.
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto''
** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIII'': Claude flips the bird when pedestrians honk their car horns at him.
** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'': You can do this in place of being armed while inside vehicles by pressing the Shoot button. It is also a selectable taunt when playing ''GTA Online''.
* ''VideoGame/Grezzo2'', another GameMod of ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'', has the same flip off mechanic of ''VideoGame/BrutalDoom''; just replace the original taunts with random Italian insults.
* ''VideoGame/GrimDawn'' has the epic scepter item Finger of Gar'Dalvur. The scepter's head is a skeletal hand with the middle finger extended.
--> "The fallen Gar'Dalvur had only one thing to say to his executioners."
* ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'': Sol Badguy does this as the Respect variation of his taunt, surprisingly enough. International versions censor this to a thumbs-up, making the taunt more "[[JustForPun respectful]]", in a sense. (Ironic, considering that the thumbs-up can definitely also mean "up yours" in certain cultures.)
* Pedestrians can do this in ''VideoGame/{{Infamous}}'' to Cole if they hate him or thieves that they hang with a rope by their feet which he can free.
* ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'':
** Daxter gives this to Pecker in ''VideoGame/Jak3Wastelander'' after yet another argument between the two, right in front of Jak, the king of Spargus, and an audience (who all gasp in unison). It was censored by showing it off-screen.
** In ''VideoGame/JakXCombatRacing'' Pecker gives one to G. T. Blitz, this time censored by {{Pixellation}} (justified since it happens on TV).
* In ''[[https://youtu.be/ReUH5rbrJ60 Kung Fu Chivalry]]'', the ending portrait of the bruised and battered RoguesGallery depicts the female boss giving the player the finger.
* Ellie does this to Bill in ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' when he scolds her for messing with his magazine pile.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel III'' has Ash Carbide giving [[TheHero Rean]] the middle finger after Rean and Ash talk about Ash's circumstances, Rean encouraging him to move forward, and Rean wishing his student a good night's rest.
* Can be done in ''VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet 2'' and ''[=LittleBigPlanet=] 3'':
** In the second game, in the level "Pipe Dreams" in the Factory of a Better Tomorrow, there's a moment where you have to pull levers to move fingers on a hand to form the hand that rockers use. However, you can also choose to put up just the middle finger, which will cause a sign that reads "Denied" to cover the offending finger until you put up another finger or take the middle one down.
** In the "The Journey Home" level kit in the third game, one of the levels is based on the Factory of a Better Tomorrow, and the hand from the above paragraph makes a reappearance in a 2-player section. You have to put the pinky and index fingers in the same position that you had to in the second game, but you can also just put up the middle finger again, causing another "Denied" sign to come down and Clive to say "Nice try. We have policies against that."
* ''VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw'': At the end of the fight with the first boss, Zed, Juliet cuts off his hand, which lands in the appropriate position.
** In what may be the best possible encapsulation of her character, Mariska gives Juliet the finger, and then turns her hand around into a peace sign.
* In the World Builder game ''LS Jumble'', one of the player's default attacks is "Raise Middle Finger".
* Jack Cayman of ''VideoGame/MadWorld'' has a variation of this, though he replaces "Middle Finger" with "Chainsaw from his arm".
* ''VideoGame/MeatBoy'': Dr. Fetus is quite fond of this gesture, to the point that his biometric hand scanner in ''Forever'' is programmed to scan his middle finger pressed against the screen. Meat Boy and Bandage Girl's daughter Nugget at one point even [[BabySeeBabyDo copies Dr. Fetus by flipping off butterflies]].
* The "Sweet Goodbye" achievement in ''VideoGame/MirrorsEdge''. This is achieved by jumping forward, doing a 180 degree turn while in the air and then pressing the attack button in quick succession. This will make Faith flash a two-finger salute while falling backwards.
* ''VideoGame/Payday2'' has an interesting variation: If you put a sight on a gun, you can replace the red dot that comes with it with a hand flipping the bird. SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome occurs as it is exactly as CoolButInefficient as it sounds, the red dot or crosshair being the much more BoringButPractical option.
* ''VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2'': Not in the game itself, but early concept art for Roxie showed her using her middle finger to do a EyelidPullTaunt. Evidently, another member of the art team realized this and had it changed to something completely different.
* ''VideoGame/Postal2'' has [=NPCs=] do this on occasion when annoyed, whether at you or another NPC. The ''Paradise Lost'' DLC allows you to do it, too, by pressing the button normally used to shout at people to get down without a weapon equipped.
* The Japanese version of the [=TurboGrafx=]-16 shooter ''Psychosis'' has one from the creature seen in between stages.
* ''VideoGame/QuestForGloryII'' has this as an example of DevelopersForesight, where one can actually use the command "give Ferrari the bird".
* In ''VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege'', Dokkaebi gives the reverse V sign to Thatcher. after that training.
-->''Thatcher:''Don't worry, maybe we'll get them right next time.\\
''Dokkaebi:''Two more seconds and we would have had eyes in the room.\\
''Thatcher:''They were already on cameras. That's two seconds too slow\\
Thatcher slams the door in front of Dokkaebi then Dokkaebi gives him a V-Sign in reverse.
* ''VideoGame/RockStarAteMyHamster'' has a hardcore rocker giving his best middle-finger salute on the title screen of the UsefulNotes/ZXSpectrum version.
* ''VideoGame/SaintsRow'': A selectable taunt for The Boss.
* In ''VideoGame/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'', Todd does this a lot -- even in the pre-fight closeup. Kim does this as well, but only if her hand is behind another character's head; if she's the only player, the expression becomes a thumbs-down.
* ''VideoGame/SouthParkTheFracturedButWhole'' has a few [[DrawAggro aggro control]] moves, some of which involve this. Craig's Shining Hate Finger has him flip off a single target, while the New Kid's [[LimitBreak "Dragon Swagger"]] summons a spirit dragon that flips off everyone with both claws.
* Of all games, ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' has Wolf flipping off the camera in his intro when you fight him in Adventure Mode.
* In ''VideoGame/SurgeonSimulator2013'' you control a seemingly disembodied hand and are given the ability to control each individual finger. Obviously, flipping the bird is what most players do at one point or another. [[DevelopersForesight There's even an achievement for that.]]
* In ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'', [[AxCrazy Agria]] gleefully does this to Leia [[spoiler:as she falls to her doom after rejecting the latter's attempt to save her]]. Though only in the Japanese version of the game.
* Paulie 'Wheels of Fury' Ryan salutes the PlayerCharacter this way when teams are chosen in ''VideoGame/TonyHawksUnderground 2''. It's blurred out, though, because the game's rated T.
--> "[[StealthInsult You're number one!]]"
* During the third song of ''VideoGame/TheTrickyMod'', [[WebAnimation/MadnessCombat Tricky the Clown]] flips [[PlayerCharacter the Boyfriend]] off in one of his animations. By this point in the mod, the AxCrazy clown is currently undergoing a VillainousBreakdown of [[OneWingedAngel improbable]] proportions, so it's somewhat justified.
** The gesture is also a MythologyGag for the ''WebAnimation/MadnessCombat'' fan game, "Madness Accelerant" which had Tricky doing the same gesture.
* The player's farewell to Nines Rodriguez in the Independent ending of ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines.''
* In ''Videogame/WorldOfWarcraft'', [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent male Worgen]] do the two-fingered variant as their "rude" emote, probably thanks to their [[IAmVeryBritish British accents]].
