Who would win in a battle between 100 armed men and 100 ferocious bears?
Obviously we will never know - such a thing would be totally hideous.
But in the time-honoured way of video games - which so often simulate things too horrible to actually experience in person - the question has now been answered.

Take a look above to see who came out ahead in this frankly reprehensible virtual experiment.
