Favorite Video Game Weapons

The Chemical Thrower from Command and Conquer: Renegade. It's like a flamethrower, but it poisons the ground and can turn enemies into Tiberium mutants when they die.

Heck, EVERY gun in that game was awesome. The sniper could zoom to about 100000 miles.

The spy corvettes from homeworld cataclysm. I cant remember what exactly it was called, but there was just something so satisfying about disguising one of those flying bombs as a enemy frigate, and then detonating it right next to a enemy heavy cruiser. and you could link a pair together to make it that much more powerful.
the morphoray from Ratchet and Clank
the Rynicerator from Ratchet and Clank, Up your Arsenal
Spartan Laser from Halo 3
spike grenades from Halo 3
Ultima Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts(the only one that actually looked like a sword, I love those games, but god they had a crappy main weapon.)

the shower head from dead rising.

Probably the most brilliant idea in any zombie game I've seen.

Gravity gun. Specifically with circular saw. I had so much fun in Ravenholm

 

[monostable]

Here are my favorite game weapons:

* The Spitfire Mk.VII's flame thrower-bomb from Strikers 1945
* The flame weapon in Mystic Defender
* The flame thrower in Turok Evolution (more like psychadelic streamer of technocolor firey death)
* The flame thrower in Army Men 3D
* The flame thrower from Return to Castle Wolfenstein

i take it you have a thing about fire

 

[monostable]

i have lots of favourites, but the main one is the SAW gunner in Full Spectrum Warrior 2. If there is like ten enemies pinning you down you just select him and go "Suppressing fire" - he stands up and unleashes hell with his weapon and sends enemies running for cover.

also the level 3 incineration in bioshock, just because he clicks his fingers to shoot it.

Gravity hammer/Spartan laser (the second because it can instakill those pesky brute chieftans)

Flashbangs in ANY game in co-op because it pisses them off so much, EXCEPT halo 3's flare, i can't seem to use that without getting blinded myself, and its useless in campaign, i don't have xbox live, so i don't tend to use it that much.

Also, and don't shoot me down in flames for saying this, what is a BFG?

 

[Kemmler0]

The flak cannon from Unreal. Affectionately know as the gravy machine.

What I can't believe is that 2 people have mentioned Perfect Dark, yet neither has mentioned the Farsight. This is the most overpowered weapon of ALL time. 1 hit kill that shoots through walls AND tracks your target for you. A testement to its power is that no other game has done it (to my knowledge), due to the sheer overpoweredness of the damn thing. Weapons incorporating some kind of nuke are 3 a penny these days these days...

Actually, two people prior to your post mentioned it.

Also, the Farsight is so not overpowered. It has a rate of fire of about one shot every five seconds, takes even longer to reload, the automatic targeting searches for and follows enemies with the speed and grace of a snail (and it only targets things that are roughly in your X-ray line of sight, regardless of how close it may be). The fact that when you are using the scope, tracking or not, it's in x-ray means that 1) if you are using radar, it becomes too blurry to understand, and 2) you lose all sense of where things are in relation to you. I've gotten killed so many times while trying to track people across the map because I didn't notice the dude who walked right in front of me and couldn't react to the bullets being pumped into my head. Mind you, I've also gotten a lot of kills doing that exact same thing to other Farsight users. The Farsight is also incredibly difficult to use as something other than a sniper rifle, which makes its usefulness and power very limited.

In short, the gun is balanced. The same cannot be said of Halo's sniper rifle.

 

[Chemfire]

The Hand-Held Portal Device, Zero Point Gravity Manipulator, and Bolt Crossbow

Everyone should have a portal gun, Nuff said

Gravity Gun was just the most amazingly useful weapon I've ever had

Bolt Crossbow, the greatest sniping weapon ever =D
