This is the way things seem to be going in real live

But plasma is so much cooler with all the "pew pew" and flashing lights than fatass EMP with it's "bom bom, thump, *electric zapppp*."

Truth be told, EMP in itself is a W.M.D.

Not really destruction though, and it also depends on the scale.

I couldn't watch that video more than a minute. He kept saying nuculer, and the dramatic coffee drop was just absurd.

In Spy Hunter for the game cube the evil company (can't remember the name) engineered 4 massive satellites to emit an Electro Magnetic Pulse around the world evenly. They were called the Four Hourseman. Something like that is what I was referring too Noob.

It's discovery channel, what do you expect? They have to make everything "exciting" and "dramatic".

EMP destroys electrical circuits so yes, destruction.
