Top 10 Video Games Weapon List

everyone will have their own top 10, but I have to agree with #1 and 2

I agree with the grav gun but the turtle shield ? or the halo sword ? A shield or a sword, wow original. Never used in any games before. And really hard to use too!

The turtle shield only requires minor timing and no aiming, strategy, combo situations, environmental influence and so on. And it doesnt cast a pretty effect either to compensate the other elements that are important in weapon design. Thats pretty boring design.

I especially miss the UT shockrifle/ASMD. A good weapon has combo abilities and or can be used for multiple things and not just killing enemies. Like getting around an obstacle in the environment. UTs piston jump does that as does some quake weapons and ofcourse the grav gun.

For me the shockrifle is on the first place. It has the timing and functionality of a rail gun yet it also has a projectile based energy ball with splash damage like a rocketcannon and when the energy ball is shot by the "rail gun" you get a huge blast. Thats gives more depth and potential.

When a weapon can combine the aiming and timing required by instant hit weapons together with the timing of projectile based weapons in 1 its great imo.

The Halo sword is the most despicably cheap weapon in any game, ever. It doesn't belong in a Top 100 list, never mind Top 10.

Cerebral Bore should be higher, too. It's a work of art.

Actually the guy presents the Halo sword as a great innovation when in reality it's just a very pale copy of the almighty Gauntlet

[Pericolos0]

? the halo sword isnt really innovative ofcourse but it is the most badass melee weapon in a shooter imo. Its the only melee weapon i'd rather have over a gun in a shooter. The way you use it doesnt really compare much to the gauntlet imo...

WHERE IS THE DOOM SHOTGUN IN THIS LIST?

[von*ferret]

shoot I like the sword

[Furyo]

Speaking of shotguns, some colleagues and I were arguing that the SoF shotgun should have made the list (arguably the best shotgun in any FPS ever)

[D3ads]

No Half-Life snarks? What a load of shit

What about the duke 3d shrink ray!

[The Postman]

where's the mp5? That fucking gun is in everything.

Needs Ivy's sword/whip from Soul Calibur. Too much of a focus on FPS games for me, but I guess they are the games in which the weapon is most "in your face" and directly controlled, so it doesn't come as a huge surprise.
