God of War 1

Jump + L1 + Hold O

You jump in the air, safe from melee attacks, charge for a few seconds then come crashing down doing massive AoE and knocking enemies off platforms. Spamming it gets you through half of Challenge of the Gods if that's any indication.

...

Oh, and frostshock.
If any of you ever play Garshasp every combo sept the left click, left click, left click. All the combo in this game end in a giant AOE attack which knocks all foes over.

A lot of attacks in Pokemon Black/White feel overpowered. In particular the fighting move Double Kick seems to do an insane amount of damage- I routinely use it to knock off three quarters of an enemy's HP against anything that isn't resistant to fighting attacks.

Although they've toned it down from the earlier games Psybeam is very over powered in the early stages of the game, where it can KO many other pokemon in one hit.

IIRC there's a spell from the Ultima series that kills everything on the planet...
That would be Armageddon. Kills everyone on the planet except the caster and the Big LB himself.

I'd say this is the most OP thing ever.
Also Batlyn in U7!!!

On topic: Predator throwing star from AvP. Smokes enemy teleport from MK9. Dragon smasher from Demon's Souls. Sackboys popit.

Invisability in Obliveon. Ok it does no damage, but you can spam it to take no damage. Attack, use your mana up with your highest damage spells, go invisable. Wait to recharge, repeat. No damage taken.

well 2 games come to my mind:

KOTOR 2 Force Crush, enemies can never resist this ability, it does alot of damage, you can spam it on same enemy and the enemy is stunned all the time when you spam it

Mass Effect Singularity & Lift, these abilitys arent that strong at start but when you level them up abit it makes insane difficulty feel like casual

Kingdom Hearts 2 - Sephiroth's normal attack. Takes off half your health and he can do it when he's literally a mile away from you because his damn sword is so long.

Damn you Sephiroth!

League of Legends, Mordekaiser's ultimate...60% of my health gone with one attack? Fuck off!
Actually it does 30% over time. The OP part of it is that when a carry dies to it, the fight'll be 4v6. Ouch.

I'll have to say it's a combination of 2 spells from the same game: Malzahar's Null Zone and ulti combined will burst anyone from full health to at least half. Combined with surrounding teammates and that it's a suppression type spell (only way to escape is buy quicksilver sash), you'll have a dead enemy/teammate.

Pretty much just Lu Bu from Dynasty Warriors 4, and the early levels in the single player of 7.
You do pitiful levels of damage even with your strongest attacks, while some of his weakest are one hit KOs.

Zoom Lens, combined with a PP-Maxxed Thunder on a high level Luxray in GenIV.
Absolutely destroy pretty much whatever you feel like that day.

The PRL 412 (the laser gun) from Resdient Evil 4. It was a charge weapon that could kill anything in one hit and could go through muiltipule enemies at once and if they got too close, fireing without charging had the same effect as a flash grenade...unless you were fighting a boss in which case it would just out right kill them. seriously, you could kill the last boss with the pull of a trigger.

This. I did this and just walked through towns casting it on everyone.

Good times.

Indignation anyone?

If not I'd like to point out that the fully upgraded Posiedon's Wrath in the first God of War was pracically an instant death button for any surrounding enemies.

Armageddon in Worms Armageddon

So overpowered, you'll be lucky to have a tombstone on land after.

I was at the final boss on Torchlight as the Beserker, and I had been maxing out my favourite move for most of the game. It did shit all to the bastard, so I tried out one of the higher tier moves the next time I levelled up, the aptly-named 'Devastate'.

It died on the first go. Now, with a tiny mana cost and a massive damage, it is literally the only move I use.

Star Wars: Battlefron II

The AT-AT. Nigh invulnerale, one-hit-kills almost anything. The only prolem is that it is slow.

Sword + Sprint on Countdown in Halo: Reach multi-player.

Duck behind that wall in the upstairs corridors by the balcony and watch the little red blips on the map. It's so douchey, but so much win.
