I did a quick search, but I didn't see anything.

You know, I feel the humble shield goes unappreciated nowadays.
I mean, I've seen plenty of "Sexiest gun" or "Best sword" threads, while the shield gets no attention, despite being extremely important in a (medieval) combat situation.

So I ask you, what's your favourite shield?
It can be in-game or a real life one, it doesn't matter. :)

My vote goes to the Escutchen from Final Fantasy XII.
I just think the design is beautiful, though it probably wouldn't be very effective in real life.

No question.

I remember how awesome it was when I first got it, then being when you turn into old link and can stand up with it, man, that was something.

I feel tempted to say he shield Death=Adder used on the arcade only golden axe 4, but most of the shields I've played with in real life rock.

a sheild in the dynasty warriors series had a sword attached down the middle of the sheild

it was your weapon, your sheild, and it looked pretty cool.
