**Also, in the original Half Life, one of the Gargantua's weapons was flamethrowers somehow built into its arms. Another alien, the tentacle, is only able to be killed when you turn on a rocket engine above its head and burn it alive.

* "Kill it with fire" is the guiding principle of the Righteous Devil martial-arts style in {{Exalted}}: specifically, using flame-discharge weapons (firewands, flame pieces, plasma-tongue repeaters if you can get them) to slay the evil and unrighteous.

In the short stroy 1408 Mike Enslin does not burn to death. He sets his shirt on fire and the shock of pain snaps him out of his insanity and he escapes the room. A passerby douses him in a bucket of ice and the room itself is never set ablaze. Mike lives the rest of his life as a shut in afraid of his own shadow.


* Occurs several times in StephenKing's books, especially in dealing with {{Hell Hotel}}s: ''TheShining'' (with bonus wasp's nest-destroying FlashBack) and ''1408'' [[spoiler: although the "it" to be killed with fire in that case included the narrator, DrivenToSuicide by the RoomFullOfCrazy]]

*** A charged Plasma Beam shot in Prime 1 will also do the same effect of the blackened dust foes. Without the missile draining. The flamethrower is RuleOfCool, but unfortunately, completely useless. Ridley tries to kill you with fireballs or plasma beams in most games. Among melee attacks.

* [[CommandAndConquer The Brotherhood of Nod]] likes this trope. ''Tiberian Dawn'' had the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Flamethrower Infantry]] and ''Tiberium Wars'' had the Black Hand. In addition, Nod had a Flame Tank in all four games. The ones from ''Dawn'' and ''Wars'' were quite effective, the one from ''Sun'' was a [[MemeticMutation GIANT SHOEBOX OF DEATH]] and the one from ''Twilight'' [[WallBanger could not even kill infantry]].
** As ''Dawn'' and ''Renegade'' showed us, Nod used flame weaponry frequently to clear out villages and execute civilians en masse. And [[YouBastard you]] [[VideogameCrueltyPotential can do the same]].
