here is where we list games where people get LIT ON FIRE

I know Zelda has been mentioned already, but Link's Awakening had a bit of a twist in terms of setting things on fire. You could throw magic powder on chickens and they were burst into flames. Cats too.

holy shit

Is there footage of this available somewhere? I'd like to see it.

Looked for one, but the only thing I could find was this shot of two people using one against an AT-ST:

Also the Lava Cannon will apply the fire DOT as well:

Q4 online has the napalm gun. I am not sure if it makes a flame effect on characters though. It might just burn the ground.

Pirates! - in one of the sword fight scenes the captain ignites his arm falling by a fire and dives into the ocean!

Guild Wars - I know there is a skill that bursts people into flames somewhere.


Marvel Ultimate Alliance - the human torch is in it!
 
Syphon Filter...when you tazer someone to death, one of my fondest gaming memories


*wups, was beat to the punch on page two
 
Elemental spell in Diablo I

This funny pic is all I could find as a clear shot of it:

you don't catch fire in this game though... the napalm is incredibly lame
Okay, it didn't technically set you on fire, but it did kill you. And it was awesome, you can wipe out a ton of people with a single bomb.
 
Metroid Prime
Plasma Gun
 
Onimusha DoD (Oni Fire FTW)
Mechwarrior 3, 4
Armored Core Series, overheating and blowing up mech suits
State of Emergency

First thing that instantly came to my mind....

Though I couldn't find any pics online of Dirk being burned-it did happen in the game in spots though. One I vividly remember is not pulling out the magical sword in time and being burned to death by the dragon.

Man I use to play that game alot in my ye old arcade years.
:lol
 
Tomb Raider series, out of those random vents in the floor that you would always have to shut off. I loved how you could never rid yourself of the flames until you got into water :\
 
The Punisher had quite a wicked implementation of the flamethrower. enemies screamed soooo much while running around on fire, i felt evil using it. then they laid there burnt to a crisp

such an unusual game

Stove Guy in RE4 is the best.

He was actually censored/omitted in certain versions, including the Japanese one I believe.

Can't believe I forgot this.

Return to f*cking Castle Wolfenstein. Come on, the flamethrower effect was great!

God yes. I remember when the multiplayer demo first came out I used to get my friends to all pick the flamethrower and rush the enemy together. If you didn't have at least a GeForce 3 and 1GHz processor your framerate would crawl.
