Lamest Video Game Collectibles of All Time
Pigeons in GTA IV
Eradicating rats with wings, better known as pigeons, is a noble cause especially when you can blow them up with a rocket launcher. Shooting these birds in GTA IV is one of the many collectibles hidden throughout the game, but is easily the lamest.
Just like the Stones of Barenziah, none of the birds are marked on the map or trackable. So instead of following a quest line, GTA IV makes it so that Niko Bellic must be a pigeon hunting private eye, finding them via sheer luck.
There are 200 of these flying rats to find and kill, meaning that even if you use a guide, it’ll be almost impossible to remember if you killed a specific pigeon already.
If you do manage to track it accordingly, your reward will be a small contribution towards 100% Completion and some histoplasmosis.
