Everyone makes lists of the best weapons of all time in games. The ones that are so powerful, practical, or just plain fun to use that they become part of gaming culture forever. Then there are the worst weapons. The rifle that fires slower than an old musket. The sword that does so little damage that you might as well be using a stick. The shotgun with a range less than the distance you can throw it. What do you think is the worst game weapon you've ever had the displeasure of using?
Worst. Weapon. Ever.

Buster Blade:
It's known to be Clouds best weapon ever, and is everyone favorite, except for the fact that you replace it literally as early as possible. The first weapon you find is better, the slums sell better weapons than the Buster blade

The survival knives from Resident Evil. If your life is in danger you're better off slitting your throat with it to avoid experiencing what it's like to be eaten.
In a lot of games:
Rocket launchers.
They always seem to be either reserved for special anti-helicopter boss sections and basically useless in the rest of the game as there's no ammo to be found for it. Or they do have sufficient ammo to see semi-regular use but they're significantly worse then most other heavy weapons.
I've rarely seen games in which explosive weapons are well balanced.

Do card games count? Because I'm pretty sure they put the sword chucks in Magic the Gathering. What could be worse than a weapon which is just as dangerous to the wielder as the target? You have to grip it by the blade for goodness' sake.
Oh man, when I was nine I thought that weapon was so cool 'cause you could use TWO of 'em. Then I tried to shoot someone with it. Yeah... at least the ammo was plentiful.REvolve said:
Heck yes. Made it's return in Perfect Dark, with no improvements whatsoever.REvolve said:
Playing multiplayer with only klobb's was friggin hilarious. Bonus points if you play with one hit kill...
And yet why do I feel so much better using the crowbar than any other melee weapon short of the Dragon's Tooth sword...?Yumore said:
Agreed. And also throw in any inventory item that isn't a weapon but is placed in the same menu as them, like the fishing rod from Twilight Princess or the camera (again) in Fallout: New Vegas. Wasted space.Scratch17 said:
Okay, I never played FFVIII, so you're gonna have to explain that to me. Or is this just a crack at the design? That complaint is even older than my thread idea (thanks for that little kick in the nads, root... I should've used the search bar).RT said:
