Real-world firearms: A sawed-off double-barreled shotgun is simply called a sawed-off shotgun, coach gun, or short-barreled shotgun (depending on its configuration and jurisdiction). Gun owners and manufacturers generally do not call them "super shotguns." DOOM II (1994): The name "Super Shotgun" was introduced in Doom II. It was a side-by-side double-barreled shotgun that fired both barrels at once, delivering massive damage but requiring a long reload. It quickly became one of the most iconic weapons in gaming.

A nontrivial reason is likely because of liability.
If a game's "super shotgun" is called a "sawed-off shotgun" (a real thing) and then someone commits a murder saying they were motivated to use a sawed-off shotgun because they saw what they could do in the game, then the victims of the crime might sue the game manufacturers as inciting violence via their depiction of a real weapon. By using a "super shotgun", there is no actual real-world equivalent in name that can be purchased or modified because "super" is ambiguous. This is a reasonable way for the game manufacturers to escape any liability.
There is an addictive quality to that game that I really love. It has its ups and downs, and some of the interactions with other players can get a bit rough, but in the end it gets a whole lot of fun and very adventurous. More than anything else, I love developing my character, who's turned into a rather deadly mage.

That’s true sawed off shotgun

Who cares? They make me do this...
I have no idea I really don’t play that many video games anymore
The only one I still play is World of Warcraft.
@msc545 well that’s cool

@msc545 that sounds like a lot of fun
It is a ton of fun. You should try it. We could play together.
@msc545 do I need to buy a PlayStation? Or an Xbox.
Actually, no, you can't really play it on Xbox or a PlayStation, but you can play it on your computer if you want. That's how I play mine.
@msc545 well I don’t have a computer anymore and my tablet’s not connected. I use my cell phone.
It doesn't take much of a computer. Just a cheap laptop will do just fine, as long as it has a reasonable size screen.
No idea
