i'd say the short weapons in Assassin's creed 2!!
i mean, apart from Sword of Altair and the hidden blades....everything else is pretty much a dead weight, and take much longer time to finish a group!

God of War 2's "Barbarian Hammer". Getting rid of the dodge feature for a little more power and a very short-range ghost attack leads to a weapon that might as well be equivalent to jumping off a cliff. Actually, worse, considering the first God of War had story value and purpose for doing that in the beginning.
Well I could only think of two.
The first would be the Wabbajack from Oblivion. I mean sure it could turn big enemies into rats or sheep, but its all completely random. There were times when the thing would simply backfire and I would be slaughtered by an even bigger creature.
And second is the Firerod from The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords for the Gamecube. The weapon is helpful for solving a few puzzles in the game, but that still didn't stop the douchebag in your party from using it to make simple tasks a complete nightmare.

Don't misunderstand me. I thought we were talking impractical as in "How the crap is that person actually holding that thing." I do love me some Hammers, but I'll be damned if I could ever imagine any real person swinging a Monster Hunter hammer around like that.Darkgoosey666 said:
The poison in Assassin's Creed 2. Hilarious, yes. Efficient and practical, no. Still an awesome weapon though.
REAL...MEGABUSTER!Zeromaeus said:
OT:
Timed fuse explosives greater than 2-3 seconds in nearly any game.
I prefer my explosives to 'splode on contact, not 5-10 seconds later.
Any weapon in the South Park game for the N64. can't hit squat with the cow launcher, alien dance machine doesn't do anything except in multiplayer and the Terrance and Phillip dolls kill you more than the enemies.
I don't know man, it doesn't seem any different then any other bludgeoning instrument. For impractical weapons I'm going to have to go with the dildo from San Andreas.Quantum Roberts said:
THIS! I mean...ITS A KEY! A GIANT KEY!!
The Focus Rifle from Reach kinda springs to mind. Covenant weapons in general are bad for giving away the firing positions of their owners but the Focus Rifle takes it one step further, linking the target and assailant with a bright glowing line of energy accompanied by a distinctive crackling sound. Seriously, it might be good at taking down your target's shields, but what good is that if everyone else on the level now has your position tagged and is lining up to see who can headshot you first?
