Your favorite Video-Game weapon

[Skiiran]

In This Thread: We discuss our favorite video game weapons.

My list is in no order of greatness, mind you.

1. Shotgun (BioShock)
http://xbox360media.gamespy.com/xbox360/image/article/736/736285/bioshock-20060928105628336.jpg
No other weapon I have ever used has been as useful as the BioShock Shotgun. Rather tight spread, a nice great THUNK sound when you fire, surprisingly powerful against everything, and, especially with the customizable ammo, incredibly satisfying to use.

2. Sumak RPL 9mm sub-machine gun (F.E.A.R.)
http://fear.dasmirnov.net/info/images/MP5.jpg
Despite a few gripes (removal of scope from earlier builds, awkward clip angle), no other weapon has been with me in a game for longer. This gun is EVERYWHERE, and it rips through things like it has a grudge against baryonic matter. Add in a 50-round clip and enough extra ammunition to arm a small country, and you're good to go.

3. Baur H-AR (Battlefield 2142)
http://battlefield.ea.com/battlefield/bf2142/images/w_assault_baur.gif
Okay, so it's got a small clip, and it kind of chews ammo up like a termite would kill a tree, but it's fun to use and easy to obtain. Having mentioned this gun, I really need to play 2142 again.

4. Meteor Driver (Sword of the Stars)
http://i.d.com.com/i/dl/media/dlimage/91/22/0/91220_large.jpeg
Thought I'd do only shooter weapons, didn't you? Come on, what isn't epic about an enormous spinal rail gun that shoots meteors made of nickel at unsuspecting thicks? Yeah, that's what I thought.

[Bodzilla]

Flak-Cannon (Unreal tournament.

Nuff said, it's just so versatile :awesome:

[Warsaw]

FOOL! Clips load magazines, not weapons. :-3

Also, the F.E.A.R. shotgun was the best gun in the game, closely followed by the Type 7.

On that note, my favorite video-game weapons are:

1. Overwatch Standard Issue (Half-Life 2)-coolest alien weapon ever designed, with an extremely satisfying 'bang' on each shot.

2. MP7A1 (Rainbow Six: Vegas)- perfect model, perfect skin, perfect sound, perfect rate of fire, and perfect accuracy. What isn't to like?

3. Type 7 (F.E.A.R.)-Vaporizes all flesh, instant hit, and was awesome in general.

4. Halo 3 Plasma Rifle-this one in particular stood out from the other games. It was beautifully made, and was all around excellent.

5. Halo 1 Needler-original weapon, and who doesn't love stuffing their foes like a pin cushion full of pink needles, and watching them explode in a fiery pink flash of light to the sound of glass shattering explosively?

6. Flash Cannon (Battlezone, 1998)-Roasting enemy vehicles with microwaves is fun, and highly explosive.

7. Chatter Cannon (Tachyon: The Fringe)-machine guns in an interstellar empire dominated by lasers, railguns, and other energy weapons is just pure cool, especially when it tears the exposed hulls of enemies to pieces.

8. Stinger (Unreal Championship 2)-spitting out crystalline shards at 3,000 rounds per minute is invigorating.

9. Karabiner 98k (Red Orchestra mod v 3.2)-the most satisfying bolt action you will ever use in any video-game for a long time because even the Red Orchestra game reverts to using crappy stock sounds in most respects.

10. Beam Cannon (Command & Conquer 3)- Last but not least, these little four-wheeled menaces are just awesome when used in groups of three or more. Nothing can take them down save for a well-placed bomb or heavy defense tower.

[Emmzee]

Golden Gun.

[Sever]

Here's three from Command & Conquer: Zero Hour: Shockwave (mod). I will probably post more outrageous weapons from other games soon.
http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u144/ektufall/Shockwave95/China_BerserkerMRLS_New.jpg
This is the Berserker MRLS, which can launch either 1 (unguided) rocket every 2 seconds, or 3 rockets every 6 seconds, OR an obscene 15 rockets every 30 seconds. Needless to say, with proper guarding, these hellspitters can take down an enemy base in no time. And they're fun as hell to watch.

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u144/ektufall/Shockwave92/China_R.jpg
The R.A.D. Tank replaces the Flame Tank for the Nuclear Weapons General, and it is a multitasking threat. Not only can it spray radiation on any enemy unit, it can also clear out garrisoned buildings, and expose its core to create a huge field of radiation around itself, AND eject its core which will eventually explode in a similar manner to a nuclear device. Better get some lead underwear!

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u144/ektufall/Shockwave92/China_NuclearOverlord.jpg
Finally, the Nuclear Overlord Tank is a beast on its own. It comes standard with upgraded speed and nuclear shells (which is usually $4500 and a few minutes of waiting for the other Chinese Generals). When it is fully upgraded, it travels almost as fast as main battle tanks, and has enough firepower to cut through anything in a few hits. The upgraded speed also helps it to take full advantage of its ability to CRUSH enemy vehicles. Yeah, its that big and bad.

[Sever]

Beam Cannon (Command & Conquer 3)- Last but not least, these little four-wheeled menaces...

SIX-wheeled:eng101:

[Pooky]

the wooden sword in legend of zelda

[Atty]

ALT+F4. Super effective against most users in Video Games.

[PenGuin1362]

big button with circle and a line through it.

wins.

[ExAm]

I usually have to think for a while about some of these, but I'll give it a go.

1) Crossbow - Half Life 2
Firing segments of red hot rebar into the skulls of your foes is just ever so satisfying, especially when they end up tacked to the wall they happened to be standing in front of :awesome:

2) Spartan Laser - Halo 3
...Lasers!

3) Gravity Hammer - Halo 3
HAMMER TIME


I may add more later...

[Nugga117]

Shotgun x2 from TimeSplitters 2
or the Monkey Gun from Future Perfect

[Mr Buckshot]

SC-20K (with 20mm sniper attachment) from Splinter Cell Chaos Theory.

Followed closely by the gravity gun.

In third place is the Golden gun in various James Bond games.

[Xetsuei]

AR2 Pulse Rifle from Half Life 2.

[Sever]

The stalactites in H2's Waterworks.

[Abdurahman]

Spartan Laser, hands down. Best.Fucking.Gun.Ever. Tears thru ANYTHING with a red laser. Very satisfying.

[~ZMT~Trace]

:words:

I was going to do Shockwave meany. >:|

Also;
http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/2172/hugsa4.gif

That thing is scary then all those tanks combined.

[Sever]

Yep. Word to the (un)wise: NEVER let a medical drone that looks like that near you. Simple as that.

[~ZMT~Trace]

Also, my favorite "weapons" are Kamikaze Workers from Juhziz in CnC Generals Zero Hour. Best Terrorist replacement. EVER.

Oh, and the Hammer Cannon;

[rossmum]

In no particular order, here are a couple of mine.

MA5B/C Assault Rifle (Halo 1/3 respectively) - Versatile, plentiful, satisfying. Looks awesome, too.

Grav Gun (HL2) - An obvious choice. Original, added whole new elements to gameplay, and incredibly fun and versatile to use.

AR2 Standard Issue (HL2) - Original and cool design, balances power, accuracy, and power capacity. Plus the orb launcher is totally fucking awesome.

Rebel Crossbow (HL2) - It pins shit to walls with red-hot rebar. How can it not win?

Combine Sniper (HL2) - Even though you can't use it, it has an awesome firing sound, it looks pretty mean, and it packs quite the punch.

Strider (HL2) - Sure it's not a weapon as such, but it fucking rapes.

StG44 (RO:O) - The perfect assault weapon. Shares the accuracy of a G43, the rate of fire of an MP40, and the power of... well, itself, since it was the first to use the 7.92mm Kurz.

Mosin-Nagant 91/30 PU (RO:O) - Unmatched for long-range or covert kills.

MG42 (RO:O) - 1,200 rounds per minute. Ok? Ok.

I could go on, but I'm itching to play Ep 2.

e:

also portal gun

[Jay2645]

Let's see here:
10. Da Golden Gun (James Bond): 1 Hit Kill. YAY!
9. Gravity Gun (HL2): Who doesn't want this thing? :awesome:
8. Y-Wings (Star-Wars: Empire at War): Who said this had to be about LAND guns? These things RAPE any Star Destroyer they come near, wiping out its shields so a fleet of X-Wings can create a huge blue boom.
7. Rocket Launcher (Halo 2): It homes in on stuff, and most people can't avoid it. What's not to love?
6. Lightsaber (Star Wars: Battlefront II): Cutting things in half with a blade of pure energy is awesome.
5. Energy Sword (Halo 3): See number 6.
4. Needler (Halos 1, 2, and 3): hA_Cr_8gOLw
3. Force Choke/Force Whatever Combo (Star Wars: Battlefront II): Yes, it's a glitch, but who cares? Infinite force choke? Turning off friendly fire and holding a poor Stormtrooper in the same spot for the entire battle? SIGN ME UP!
2. Spartan Lazer (Halo 3): http://www.halolcats.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/halolcats-spartan-laser.jpg
1. The ASSAULT RIFLE! (Halos 3 and 1, respectively): I love it. First gun I ever used in Halo (I played MP first, shut up), and the weapon I have the most kills with in Halo 3.

[Texrat]

1. Rocket launcher in Unreal Tournament 2003

2. Rocket launcher in Halo PC/CE

...yes, it's a trend!

[n00b1n8R]

hmm.. lets think..
10. Rebel Crossbow - HL2
basically what ross said. red hog barb pining combine to walls.

9. Rocket Launcher - every shooter in the history of ever
well lets see, it launches rockets. which explode. explosively. :win:

8. the Warthog - halo series
halo was the first game I got with my new PC and was the most advanced game I'd ever owned (this is in 2005 too :/). the hog was a car with a gun with unlimited bullets on the back. also it was invincible.

7. the Plasma rifle - halo series
It has stun, it's really accurate, it rapes the shield for the pistol to headshot and it's used by elites! also it looks cool.

6. the dagger of time - PoP series
the name says it all.

5. Energy sword - Halo series
Magical disny laws of physics tbh.

4. Gravity gun - HL2
it's the gravity gun.

3 Jedi shit (force and lightsabres) - starwars games
shoot lighting from your hands, deflect lazers with a humming glowstick AND CHOKE PEOPLE IN MID AIR. :awesome:

2 ghost - Halo series
My favorite vehicle in the game.

1 MA5C-B
It's a fun weapon to use.

[Caboose O'Malley]

OMG Have people forgotten about the greatest weapon of all time in scifi history?!?

THE M41A PULSE RIFLE FROM ALIENS!!!!!
http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6727/m41apulseriflemv8.jpg

[nooBBooze]

Any Cat-Silenced Rifle in Postal 2.

[/pwnt]

[Phobias]

Gravity hammer - Halo 3
A large melee weapon, that rapes not only those pricks that try and sneak up on you, but vehicles as well? YES.

Chainsaw - Doom series.
kamakazie stlye ftw.

Needler - Halo series
Little purple and pink needles chasing people around walls, then gripping said person and exploding, not to mention letting off a whole clip of them on an afk...WOOO

NIKITA - Metal gear solid
Player guided missile launcher...kill the fuckers hiding around a corner waiting for you.

Dildo - Grand theft auto - sand andreas...
Whats not to love about beating the crap out of someone with a rubber penis? ... well I found it funny STFU


Moonraker laser - golden eye (I think :\)
I just loved this gun, for no particular reason.


Taser - any game that has it, but syphon filter was where I first fell in love.
the syphon filter taser is a long range shocking device, you fire at a person, the barb attaches to said person, then the camera zoomed in on them so you could hear their screams and watch them burst into flames...:awesome:

Also, I agree with alot of the before mentioned weapons.

[PlasbianX]

All time favorite:

http://www.tribesfr.com/images/tribesvengeance/armes/spinfusor_small.jpg
Spinfusor (Starsiege Tribes, Tribes 2, Tribes Vengeance)
Because shooting a magnetized disk at subsonic velocity only to explode in your enemy's face with tons of splash damage rocks.

[Flyboy]

http://www.tranism.com/weblog/images/links_mastersword.jpg

5. Lightsaber (Star Wars)

6. Gravity Hammer (Halo 3)

7. Mauler (Halo 3)

8. Master Sword (Legend of Zelda)

9. Psy Blade (StarCraft 1,2)

10. The Force (Star Wars)

[Mr Buckshot]

I forgot to post my favorite WW2 weapons (Call of Duty series).

They would be the Colt .45 pistol (the Colt 1911 served the USAF for 74 years until being replaced by the Beretta 92F), M1 Garand rifle (who doesn't love it), Bren LMG (fugly but fun), and the MP44 assault rifle.

[Syuusuke]

Ohh ooh add +9 Sonic Rage

[Pooky]

This is awesome.

Gravity gun number 1? pffft... it wasn't even all that creative

[ExAm]

It's not fun, it's just useful, IMO. I don't think it should be there either.

[BobtheGreatII]

It's not fun, it's just useful, IMO. I don't think it should be there either.

You're telling me throwing your enemies at each other isn't fun? Throwing toilets at peoples faces in Deathmatch isn't fun? Throwing as many explosives that you can find at someone isn't fun? Throwing energy balls at people and watching them disintegrate isn't fun? The list goes on, do you think before you talk?
Mine:
#1 Gravity Gun (Half-Life2)
#2 Portals Gun (Portals)
#3 Master Sword (FTW, Zelda)
#4 Rebal Crossbow (Half-Life2)

[ExAm]

Throwing energy balls at people and watching them disintegrate isn't fun? The list goes on, do you think before you talk?
Yes, I am. You only get to throw people at other people for a short period in the game, and even then I'd rather be shooting them. I don't care about what you can throw at people, or the possibilities the gravity gun has for ownage. It's just not that great to use. Shooting is just more satisfying.

[rossmum]

Actually I'd rather saw a zombie clean in half than shoot it. Guess it's a matter of personal preference, I loved the super grav gun run in the Citadel.

[DaneO'Roo]

Ok, I've changed my mind:

In addition to ones already said in this thread:

Scarface: fully upgraded M16
A 100-shot clip with a grenade launcher? Yes please!

Metroid Prime: Plasma Beam
Watching an enemy disintegrate after a well-placed charge shot is so satifying.

Mega Man X2: Gear Crush
The armor powerup? Take enough damage and then blow everything right the fuck up.

Mega Man X2: Shoryuken
LOLRAEPS whatever it touches. Including the final boss. Sucks though that you need full health, and that you need to press the button combo just right.

Max Payne: Dual Ingrams
Today's forecast calls for total overcast of metaphors, followed by a torrential downpour OF LEAD :haw:

Starcraft: Ghost Nuke
BEEPBEEPBEEP --- NUCLEAR LAUNCH DETECTED.

[rossmum]

Starcraft: Ghost Nuke
BEEPBEEPBEEP --- NUCLEAR LAUNCH DETECTED.
Oh God yes. My friend Maff was playing against a way more skilled player once online and this guy was gloating as he trashed the last of his structures... then Maff just told him to look at his own. He did, only to see at least 3 red dots on every building.

The look on the guy's face must've been priceless.

[Pooky]

I need to get me some skill at Portal. :(

Portal gun also on my list now, that thing is win and awesome.
I would love to see it in multiplayer... you could shoot a portal entrance on some heavily used walkway then put an exit over a bottomless pit. Or you could use it to send the heavy weapons into an endless loop.

[Aerowyn]

I would love to see it in multiplayer... you could shoot a portal entrance on some heavily used walkway then put an exit over a bottomless pit. Or you could use it to send the heavy weapons into an endless loop.

In a multiplayer situation, I think having it as a deathmatch wouldn't do well. If there was a portal on a walkway you could always use your portals to get around it.

If they made a Capture the Flag sort of deal with Portals, that might be fun. ;)

http://www.beyondunreal.com/main/ut2007/hr/ut2007_39.jpg

Favorite Weapon is still the Shock Rifle.

http://www.beyondunreal.com/main/ut2007/hr/ut2007_18.jpg

Its just so satisfying when you combo... and even if you can't combo... Hitscan, need I say more?

Its actually called the ASMD Shock Rifle in the earlier Unreals and UTs... but for some reason "(A)nd (S)uck (M)y (D)ick" was considered not quite marketable :p

The GES Bio Rifle likewise stands for "(G)reen (E)xploding (S)hit"

[Emmzee]

http://www.beyondunreal.com/main/ut2007/hr/ut2007_18.jpg

Its just so satisfying when you combo... and even if you can't combo... Hitscan, need I say more?
I'm sorry, the gun you were looking for is called the Bio-Rifle.

[Phopojijo]

I dunno, I don't want to hold Green Exploding Shit.

[Elite Killa]

Halo 3: Assault Rifle, Plasma Rifle, Needler, SMG, Sniper Rifle

Call of Duty 2: Russian PPSH

Call of Duty 4 (beta): M16A4 with Grenade Launcher

BioShock: Shotgun, Machine Gun

Gears of War: Lancer

[Emmzee]

I dunno, I don't want to hold Green Exploding Shit.
Now that you put it that way, I can see why not many people love the Bio-Rifle.

[Dr Nick]

I'd rather use the Shock Rifle as well, but I think my favorite weapon from a video-game is the SPAS (12) shotgun from FEAR.

[atomicpower93]

The Tactical Nuke (World in Conflict)

[TeeKup]

The Isolde Battleship Cannon and the Tannhauser Positron Blaster Cannon.

This Isolde can be seen at 00:34. The Positron cannon at 1:04
eCsFz62jNII

The Minerva also looks cooler in design, however the Archangel is so much more badass.

[Dole]

Timesplitters Electrotool. Fucking terrible name, but probably one of the most original [and satisfying] weapons I've ever encountered in a game.

I mean seriously; who doesn't want to fire a steady lance of overpenetrating electric plasma that homes in on its nearest target, paralyzes it while simultaneously draining it of life, and consequently redirects the stream's trajectory onto the second closest beacon (from the node of the original bearing... while continuously firing on that enemy as well, mind you), which then rebounds to the third closest, then the fourth, and fifth, etc.? Ownage on a stick.

http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/4808/electrotoolpiclc9.jpg



Second favorite video game weapon... I guess the Bubble Gun or the Talisman from Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Hello there, Sega Genesis. :)

Third favorite is most definitely the shower head from Dead Rising.

[ExAm]

I've never played the full version of dead rising, but i'm guessing that you jam the showerhead in a zombie's mouth and it sprays blood?

[Terin]

My favorite "weapons" in a sense would be the speed booster from Super Metroid and Metroid Zero Mission, and the Portal Gun from the obvious game. You can do some fun stuff with those.

A weapon on it's own... hmm... I'd have to say a lightning shock cannon that Dark Troopers had in Star Wars Battlefront 2. Charge it up and stunlock a room full of people. lolrouge

I've never played the full version of dead rising, but i'm guessing that you jam the showerhead in a zombie's mouth and it sprays blood?Skull, but close!

[ExAm]

Do I get half a cookie some rep?

[Phopojijo]

Pfft, I don't get +rep :p

P.S. -- if you don't like the bio rifle or the shock rifle...

May I interest you in the ripper?

Bounces off walls and cuts peoples heads off.. Hence "Unreal" :p

Unreal Championship 2 ripper was better, in my opinion. Headshots with it are a glorious thing.

i was never a big fan of the ripper.

it was just too weak.
Flak ftw.

[Phopojijo]

It had plenty of power if you aim for the neck.

[Huero]

The Grenade Launcher in Bioshock, of course!

[Syuusuke]

Fists.

well tahts a given, but so do most of the other weapons.
the Headshot capability was probebly the rippers best quality, however u could just dodge the blades...
just hand me that flak cannon :)

just hand me that flak cannon :)In UT it was the only headshot weapon besides the sniper rifle.

And the Googun 2nd fire, but well... you know. Not really a headshot weapon and its design was to take out clumps of people.

[fatso784]

Gravity gun ftw.

[Archon23]

Shock Rifle. I mean who doesn't love purple explosiony goodness.

Shock Rifle. I mean who doesn't love purple explosiony goodness.Barney the dinosaur!

I agree, the shock gun was my favorite Unreal weapon. weapon

:)I see your CL.ER-PPC and raise you a NAVAL_CL.ER-PPC.

Vapourization radius? Around 200 meters.

D: I see that and raise you an MODL? Those damn things have been mission targets in at least 3 of the Battletech game I've played...


I'm also partial to the higher-caliber autocannons and Clan Gauss Rifle. And of course, pulse lasers for when the bigger guns are recycling.

[Phopojijo]

Remember the dam in Mechwarrior 3?

The dude dropped a rocket on it and blew the *entire* dam to dust?

That was *1* rocket in a salvo of *20* NAVAL_IS.LRM-20's.

In the Battletech realtime top-down Telnet RTS I wasted 3 years of my life on: made a custom vehicle. Went 64KPH (Around the speed of a Marauder)... had a fair decent amount of armor... and 4xTbolt-20's.

That's like getting hit with 4 Autocannon-20's from LRM range. Takes approximately 3 in the Center Torso to donut an Atlas I believe. Headshot instant kill against any mech that didn't have hardened armor. Even then it'd only have 1 point of internal damage remaining. (9pts head armor x2 from hardened + 3 internals = 21 pts... 1 Tbolt does 20... PPC does 10... NAVAL_CL.GAUSS-RIFLE does like 200,000 to everyone in a 250 meter range of impact)

The administrators denied it :p

Another custom munch-machine was 100 tonnes, 53KPH, maxed armor, Triple Strength Myomer, Mace, and some short ranged weapons.

If I'm overheated TSM doubles all melee damage, which was already doubled by the mace, which is 20 pts from 100tonnes.

Yea, 80 points of damage localized to a single section.

Likewise that one also didn't make it in.

It's sister mech did though (no mace, more guns)... trudged into a clan base alone... took like a half hour to walk there. Took out an Alacorn, made a Madcat flee, took down a Thor... and walked home... alone.

The vehicle would be the tripod. My favorite weapon was the dual MP7s from Matto 4, nothing like filling mercs with lead, especially in slow mo scenes.

[Bathroom Security]

Hmm

weapon #5 on phoenix (calculator game). Chews through everything D:
