Halo is an example of a game that
follows the same logic as rock paper scissors. The different guns you can use
give you a clear advantage in most situations, with some fluctuation for player
skill. The shotgun often wins over automatic rifle which wins over the burst
shot rifle, which wins over the sniper which wins over the shotgun. Although
you have to find the gun you want, a player may choose to switch his gun if he
thinks more players have the gun that his gun is effective against. Good
strategy can help you do well against other players in this game.
The strategy of this game is that
every gun has something it can easily beat, and something that it is easily
beat by. This is very close to rock paper scissors. It is just not absolute
like rock paper scissors is. Which is definitely a positive thing because it
video-games the more skilled player should succeed in some cases since their
advance level of play. But when it comes down to the basics of the game, rock
paper scissors logic is a big part.

Moves can be thought of very far in advance creating an intense mental battle between the players
