| rdfs:comment | - The gas can is a prop coming from 3 games :
* Half-Life 2
* Left 4 Dead
* Left 4 Dead 2
- The Gas Can was an object that can be picked up in Alone in the Dark 3. It is located on the porch of the Slaughter Gulch Saloon. The gas can can then be used to insert its fuel into a projector inside the Saloon.
- The gas can is a weapon found in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Case West. When shot green gas is released. In Dead Rising 2: Case West it can be found in the Research Laboratory. In Dead Rising 2 it can only be found in the Underground Secret Lab. When shot it releases a harmless green gas.
- The gas can, also known as fuel or petrol cans, can be found throughout the game. They can be picked up with the Use key (default: "E" for PC; "X" for Xbox 360) and release flames similar to a Molotov cocktail when shot. A player cannot shoot while holding a gas can but can still shove. There is no inventory space for this weapon, so the only method of transporting it is to pick it up and carry it. These cans are usually found around Crescendo Events and finales. They are very effective when set up and ignited to create walls of flame providing a strong defense against large horde attacks. Strangely, gas cans share the Molotov's glass shattering sound file when they are ignited.

| abstract | - The gas can, also known as fuel or petrol cans, can be found throughout the game. They can be picked up with the Use key (default: "E" for PC; "X" for Xbox 360) and release flames similar to a Molotov cocktail when shot. A player cannot shoot while holding a gas can but can still shove. There is no inventory space for this weapon, so the only method of transporting it is to pick it up and carry it. These cans are usually found around Crescendo Events and finales. They are very effective when set up and ignited to create walls of flame providing a strong defense against large horde attacks. Strangely, gas cans share the Molotov's glass shattering sound file when they are ignited. On account of their efficacy when defending against large horde attacks and for survival maps, players will often attempt to stockpile them for later use. This can spell disaster for a team because if cans are shot by mistake, the team will engulfed in flame and must flee its camping spot to become unexpectedly exposed and vulnerable. Even on lower difficulties, where fire damage is usually negligible, the fact that all of the cans ignited together in the same spot means that all of the instances of fire are stacked in the same area, and that anyone standing in that area receives many times more damage from the fire than they would normally. The most useful and generic tactic with gas cans is to spread them in an arc in front of a defended position, shoot at one can and to rely on its flames to ignite the unlit ones nearby, thus causing a large chain reaction and a wall of flame that helps with horde attacks and finales. In Left 4 Dead 2, the new mode, Scavenge Mode, as well as the Dead Center and The Passing finales, uses gas cans as a non-offensive purpose. In these contexts, yellow gas cans are scattered across the level (normal red gas cans can also be used if carried over from the preceding chapter to the finale, but their use to fill the generator in The Passing finale has been reported to cause game stability problems) and must be collected and carried back to a generator (or car) to refuel it. Yellow gas cans can still be shot, but in most scenarios this is neither recommended nor wise because they are valuable and necessary to complete the chapter. Be aware that a Spitter can ignite these gas cans if they have been picked up and dropped to prevent them from being poured and to damage Survivors. Spitters cannot ignite normal gas cans under any circumstances. Finally, there is also a new green gas can containing diesel fuel that is only seen in Hard Rain. These cans are unusable as melee and fire-trap weapons, serving only as chapter objectives and being attachments to character models. These cans are retrieved to refuel the Lagniappe, the boat that Virgil uses to rescue the Survivors from the Swamp Fever and Hard Rain campaigns.
