Favorite video game weapon(s)

[Parakeettheprawn]

*Gestures to the armory of weapons in Dead Space 2*

*Gestures to the Gravity Gun*

*Gestures to pretty much any weapon in Bulletstorm besides the assault rifle*

*Gestures to FUSE*

That about covers it.

Ever since I played Goldeneye: Rogue Agent, it's been the P90.

 

[Headsprouter]

Yeah, it's a mobile game, but the only game ever to have my "dream weapon" was Dead Trigger:

Spoiler

Gotta love clip-reload crossbows.

Only improvement would be if it was more like the Van Helsing crossbow:

Spoiler

Gotta love the steampunk.

The grenade launcher from Timesplitters 2 was pretty boss, as well:

Spoiler

Spits a grenade that spits out 2 more. Alternate fire? FIREBALLS. Also, it looks like a revolver suffering from elephantitis. And that's awesome.

The AER14 prototype laser from Fallout New Vegas. Its lasers were green and thus better. Green > Red

YES!! Favourite gun in the game. The Sprtel-Wood that came in the GRA mod was a similar concept.

Flamethrower
Pretty much any flamethrower from any game
.

I like to burn things

The fucking Blitzkrieg. Anyone who has played Dead Rising 2 knows what I'm talking about.

The "armed to the teeth wheelchair" move is badass. The Stephen Hawkings' voice taunts are the chery in the Batman-levels-of-awesome cake.

The Painkiller, from the game Painkiller.....Who doesn't want a mini helicopter melee weapon that shoots a projectile that pulls your enemy closer so you can saw their asses up?

 

[Guffe]

The Master Sword + Hurylian Shield in Zelda??

Not maybe the one I used the most but the Revolver in Red Steel II was freakin' sweet

 

[Anezay]

I like the supercharged gravity gun, much in the same way I like the telekinesis plasmid from Bioshock. It's useful outside of combat, and even if it doesn't affect anything, relocating the corpses afterward is good fun.
Other than that, Mass Effect 2's Cain was pretty satisfying.

 

[ultrabiome]

there are many great weapons in this thread, but i have to go with a classic from a 2-D side-scroller:

X-buster from the Mega Man X series.

i almost went with the Mega Buster for it's charge ability, but the fact the X-buster can charge into even more insane blasts AND charge the special weapons too, it is my favorite video game weapon.

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

The Cerebral Bore from Turok 2. It's mindblowing.

The Shrink Ray from Duke 3D. Sometimes you gotta appreciate the small things.

Metal Gear Rex from Metal Gear Solid. Because driving a big-ass, nuke-launching walking arsenal is awesome and no-one ever said my favorite weapon has to be man-portable.

 

[Hutcher]

This is an easy one for me: The Crissaegrim in Castlevania: SotN. Soooo broken.

 

[Jhooud]

I'm old, so for a gun I'll have to go with...


For close up and personal?

Do Real Life weapons count? My personal favorite is the Tommy Gun from Bioshock 1. That could take out almost anything.

 

[Yopaz]

Gravity gun from Half-Life 2. Walking around carrying a saw blade wherever I went. I hardly used as much as a single bullet through that section of the game. Just chopping off heads with my sawblade.

Presea from Tales of Symphonia got some cool axes (one that is even alive) and Lloyd's Material blades are awesome since they can fuse into one sword.

 

[Fidchell Attano]

Corvo's collapsing sword, or the Outsiders Mark.

 

[Longstreet]

Crysis 3: The bow. That thing is so damn OP. You can kill EVERYTHING with it. Except maybe the final boss. Even the TOUGHEST 'regular' enemy you see, you are able to take down with 2/3 arrows that you can retrieve. Plus you don't uncloak.

Bulletstorm had some nice weapons, but i can't really remember details.

Bioshock infinite. The sniper rifle and shotgun are awesome. Those were the two guns i had with me for 90% of the game. You barely need upgrades.

Far Cry 3; Silenced sniper rifle. Take out an enemy camp from across the other hill while no one sees you. Yes please.

Battlefield 3: M5k for CQB. Deadly, accurate and fast. Just how i like it. The M98b sniper rifle. One shot kills baby!

As you can see, i am a fan of stealth.

Don't get me wrong though, a Fat Man is pretty funny. I just never used it that much since i didnt have infinite nukes.

 

[talker]

in the later bits of Borderlands 2, my greatest satisfaction was shooting bandits through the face with a great Maliwan sniper rifle with ten rounds and seventy percent chance of fire damage. face go boom, corpse go fwoom, hehe.

 

[Izanagi009_v1legacy]

I really liked the shotgun in Bulletstorm. When Yahtzee described it as "God slamming his car door" he wasn't exaggerating. It's really that badass.


Also whatever Labrys' axe is called in P4A. Well, I play Shabrys not Labrys but they both have Guillotine Axe and that move has so much impact. Never mind a fully charged Brutal Impact...

Yep, that brutal impact can crush people (if you can even combo into it as it has the biggest charge up time in the entire game)

Speaking of Arc system fighters, I would have to go with Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa

Spoiler: Yukianesa's wielder

OR Interfectum Malus: Okami

Spoiler: Okami's wielder

One can summon ice and freeze you to death

And the other can negate magic itself and slice you to death

 

[Avalanche91]

The Singularity Projector from ME2

It pretty much shoots mini black holes, drawing in enemies and dealing massive damage.......and that is fun.

 

[Vegosiux]

Warglaives of Azzinoth, really. Trumps pretty much everything in my books.
