History UnstoppableRage / VideoGames

* "Unstoppable Rage" sums up [[VillainProtagonist Kratos]] from the ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' series. Plus, he has an ability named "Rage of the Gods/Titans/[[spoiler:Sparta]]", that makes him more unstoppable.

* ''Videogame/PizzaTower:'' Peppino, the perpetually anxious AngryChef protagonist, already shows elements of this when charging fast enough at enemies, picking up enough steam and anger to terrify them and plow through their attacks. But it's only at the end where the ''true'' rage shows: [[spoiler:Pizzahead casually picks up every previous boss to toss them his way in a BossRush, laughing at his plight. All he achieves is driving Peppino into a berserk fury, causing his ''regular attack'' to become a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown that tears through fully half of the bosses' health bars every time it lands]].

* Link goes from {{Determinator}} to this in the finale of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'', after [[spoiler: Ghirahim captures Zelda and starts a ritual to feed her soul to Demise]]. He's so pissed he tears through an ''army'' of Bokoblins like tissue.

** Being really really angry is a common form of boost for Melee classes, such as a Paladin (Avenging Wrath), Shaman (Shamanstic Rage), Warrior, (Enrage) Druid, (Berserk). The only Melee classes that ''don't'' do this are weakling Rogues and semi-emotionless death knights. And then there's the raid-wide buffs Heroism, Bloodlust, and Ancient Hysteria, which are essentially PaletteSwaps of the same "Everyone in the raid goes berserk and starts attacking really fast" ability, or the Racial "Get Angry" abilities of Trolls and Orcs. Getting angry is the leading cause of increased damage in ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''.

* In the ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'' series the Pre-War military drug "[[PsychoSerum Psycho]]" is purposefully designed to cause this in users. It increases tolerance to pain and causes extreme anger and recklessness which makes them great for assaults that require a lot of very angry soldiers thrown at somebody. In ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}}'' the ChosenOne finds records that mixing the drug with Buffout, a highly advanced steroid that increases a body's strength, endurance, and agility, (along with other clandestine chemicals) made the test subject violent and strong enough to rip their way through a ''FUCKING REINFORCED STEEL DOOR''. The ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 4}}'' drug "Psychobuff" is a pale shade of this, but it can still be deadly in the right hands.
* Speaking of Fallout, one need to look no farther than ''VideoGame/Fallout4'', a man or woman with little-to-no combat experience and a pistol and riot baton in a post-apocalyptic world they're never seen before, and still manage to blow the heads off of monsters and crazed raiders to get to the man who shot their spouse and make him pay[[spoiler:, and once they get there, they make it very clear that this will end with Kellogg's heart ripped from his body]].

** Primeape's new evolution, Annihilape, is the result of a Primeapes anger rising past the critical point. Given that it is now part Ghost type, it can be implied that not even ''DEATH'' was enough to stop it's rage. It even gains a special move unique to it: Rage Fist. A Ghost Physical move that increases the damage it deals every time you're hit by any move ([[FriendlyFire including your own[[).

* Technically occurs in ''Vampire: The Masquerade -- Bloodlines''. If you lose too much humanity you may go into frenzy mode. On one hand, it makes you nigh unstoppable, boosting your skills and power exponentially. On the other hand, it's exactly as one would describe a "frenzy"; you don't control the character until it's over and will likely have lost most (if not all) Masquerade points from running around biting everyone, meaning powerful vampire hunters will be attacking your now-weakened form.

* ''VideoGame/FirstEncounterAssaultRecon'': Alma. She's [[spoiler:''dead,'' and her ''hate'' is what keeps her present on this mortal coil. One character in ''F.E.A.R. 2'' even says that her hate is the reason she just "refused" death.]]
** At multiple points in ''Project Origin'', Alma attacks and slaughters people without warning in random spats of sheer violent hatred, complete with her distorted voice screaming '''"I HATE YOU!"''' over and over again.

** Brutes and some Elites will berserk and rush you with deadly melee attacks if the rest of their squad is wiped out, or if they are pissed off enough (eg from being stuck with a plasma grenade). From ''VideoGame/{{Halo 3}}'' onward, Grunts will sometimes "kamikaze" with plasma grenades in desperate situations.

* ''VideoGame/SplinterCell'': Sam Fisher hits this at the end of mission eight of ''Conviction'', where he [[spoiler:learns that Lambert was behind faking his daughter's death in Double Agent,]] at which point, at least for the rest of the mission, Mark and Executes are free, as in no need to CQC enemies to earn them, there's no need to designate a target (simply moving over them with the cross hair makes them a target), and the meter is up to a max of six at this point.
* In ''Franchise/StarWars: VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed II'', Starkiller experiences this when [[spoiler: Darth Vader shoves his {{Love Interest|s}} Juno Eclipse out a window.]] It begins with Starkiller going into perpetual Force Fury [[note]]it is only cosmetic[[/note]], [[spoiler: attacking Vader with all his might screaming that he will kill him]], and ends with Starkiller saturating his foe with lightning for two minutes straight.

* Heller has one in [[VideoGame/{{Prototype2}} in the sequel]] [[spoiler:when assaulting the Gentek HQ to get back his daughter]]. He was capable to force two Juggernauts to his aid and his damage output is dramatically increased to the point of being able to kill Orion soldiers and Brawlers in one hit.

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'':

* In the third ''VideoGame/{{Uncharted}}'' game, when [[spoiler:Sully appears to be shot in a vision Nate is having thanks to a MushroomSamba]], Nate chases down the attacker with murderous intent.

* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'':

* ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'': When [[spoiler:Metal Face murders Fiora]], Shulk reacts... ''badly''.
-->'''Shulk:''' ''[barely coherent] '''[[IllKillYou I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!]]'''''
* In ''[[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2 Torna the Golden Country]]'', when Malos blasts Auresco with his Siren, [[spoiler:killing Milton]], Mythra goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge and uses her full power to kill Malos and make him suffer. She [[spoiler:ends up destroying Torna]] as a result, because Addam couldn't control her.
* In the ''Videogame/{{Yakuza}}'' series, [[BerserkButton hurt a kid]] in front of [[PapaWolf Kazuma]] [[FriendToAllChildren Kiryu]]. Then count how many teeth you have left after he's done [[NoHoldsBarredBeatDown beating you within an inch of your life]].
** Majima's entire state of being in the final chapter of ''VideoGame/Yakuza0''; [[spoiler:after Makoto is shot and put in a coma by an assassin, Majima flies into a frothing rage and storms Dojima Family HQ by himself, tearing through dozens of yakuza, one of Dojima's top lieutenants, ''and'' the aformentioned assassin on his way to the man himself. If Masaharu Sera didn't arrive and tell him to stand down, Majima most likely would have killed Dojima and all his men before the night was out.]]

* Almost every character in ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' has a BerserkButton and they go into rages accordingly:

* ''VideoGame/JakII'' begins with the titular character vowing to kill Baron Praxis, the [[spoiler:assumed]] BigBad of the game, and then angrily questions the first person he sees [[spoiler:(who is the ''real'' BigBad)]]. Jak does mellow out as the game advances, only to flare up again in the climax when he battles [[spoiler:Metal Kor]]. This also happens in the climax of [[VideoGame/Jak3 the next game]], after Count Veger mocks [[spoiler:Damas]] for not knowing [[spoiler:Jak was his missing son... [[MoralEventHorizon seconds after Damas was killed]]]], leading Jak vowing to kill Veger.

** [[SuperMode Darkspine]] Sonic from ''[[VideoGame/SonicStorybookSeries Sonic and the Secret Rings]]''. [[spoiler:After [[ExpositionFairy Shahara]] is killed, Sonic remains calm for a bit. And then all hell breaks loose when he absorbs the [[MineralMacGuffin World Rings]] [[{{Expy}} (The Arabian Nights equivalent of the Chaos Emeralds, only with emotions assigned to them) of anger, hatred, and sadness]], [[EvilSoundsDeep getting a demonic voice]], and screaming as he lets loose a flurry of punches and kicks before striking the perpetrator of Shahra's death with an energy flare]].

** Majima's entire state of being in the final chapter of ''VideoGame/{{Yakuza 0}}''; [[spoiler: after Makoto is shot and put in a coma by an assassin, Majima flies into a frothing rage and storms Dojima Family HQ by himself, tearing through dozens of yakuza, one of Dojima's top lieutenants, ''and'' the aformentioned assassin on his way to the man himself. If Masaharu Sera didn't arrive and tell him to stand down, Majima most likely would have killed Dojima and all his men before the night was out.]]

--->'''Edge''':"''You think our rage... a weakness? Then let me show you '''''how wrong you are'''''!"

** At multiple points in ''Project Origin'', Alma attacks and slaughters people without warning in random spats of sheer violent hatred, complete with her distorted voice screaming '''" I HATE YOU!"''' over and over again.

'''Goliath''': You shouldn't.. you '''[[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE GOD DAMN DONE THAT!!!!!!!1!]]'''

--->'''Goliath''': Big mistake... Really big ''[[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry GOD DAMN MISTAKE!]]''\\
'''Goliath''': Hate...HATE...''HAAAAAATE! ARRRRRRRRRRGH!''\\
'''Goliath''': Gonna kill...Gonna KILL...''GONNA KILL!''\\

But it's only at the end where the ''true'' rage shows: [[spoiler:Pizzahead casually picks up every previous boss to toss them his way in a BossRush, laughing at his plight, yet all he achieves is drive Peppino into such berserk fury that he just [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown beats ten kinds of stuffing out of anyone he gets his hands on]] giving him a ''massive'' damage boost]].

** Primeape's new evolution, Annihilape, is the result of a Primeapes anger rising past the critical point. Given that it is now part Ghost type, it can be implied that noe even ''DEATH'' was enough to stop it's rage.

** In ''Ghost of Sparta'', Kratos may have topped himself [[spoiler:after seeing Thanatos kill his brother.]] The man truly becomes rage incarnate at that moment.

*** Kreig's action skill [[AnAxeToGrind Buzz Axe Rampage]] is boosted by this to a terrifying degree with the "Release the Beast" Mania skill. The sane portion of Krieg loses control of his anger, [[HulkingOut warping]] Krieg into a badass [[SuperMode Psycho Mutant]].
