Conversely, things like Fallout flamethrowers, plasma guns and laser weapons hit targets with pure energy. Of course, real life flamethrowers spray things with burning fuel, which is something I've never seen any game do right.
So not only does it mean they did it wrong, but they got it wrong while doing it wrong.
