    Environment as Weapons

    Concept »

    The ability for players to manipulate objects in the environment and use them as weapons. An example of this gameplay mechanic is Half-Life 2, in which players make use of a Gravity Gun to launch objects with deadly force.

    A question about the environment as weapons concept.

    It seems that the concept is a bit unclear to me, using a grav gun or telekinesis to throw objects from the environment to an enemy is the clear part, now what happen if we speak about exploding barrels, some environment parts that can be grabbed or disassembled like in condemned for example use even some enemy limbs as a weapon, or what about traps already placed, or even a valve that releases some deadly cloud that can be used against an enemy. Does games with these objects and possibilities be part of this concept ?
