I'm currently playing Far Cry 3 and I just feel like a bad ass running around with bow and arrow.

There is only one answer.

Sword of Olympus in god of war 2

timetokill · Jul 30, 2013

RE4 had some great ones.

The bolt-action rifle you get early on is great. Awesome sound, great reloading animation, and they give it to you with what is effectively a big shooting gallery of ganados on rooftops and bridges. So awesome.

Also in RE4: The Broken Butterfly.

The merchant sums it up: "Gun's not just about shootin'. It's about reloadin'. You'll know what I'm talkin' about."

When you are good with it. ;-)

All the airstrikes in Mercenaries, but my god the bunker buster is a thing of beauty.

For those who always wanted to be a ranger, PSO Spread Needle is the weapon that makes you awesome:

Rise of the Triad , every single rocket launcher. It's raining gibs, hallelujah.

Owlowiscious · Jul 30, 2013

The sword in Shadow of the Colossus. Crappy sword taking down monsters the size of buildings? Feels pretty awesome.

I was waiting for someone to post this. Coolest weapon I ever used in a game.

Madlib · Jul 30, 2013

As Soon as you get the Rocket Launcher in Crackdown the game totally changes. Then you get the Homing Rocket Launcher in the late game and it's just Blow Shit Up: The Game.

Screaming Meat · Jul 30, 2013

Dual wielding Beretta 92Fs from any Max Payne game. Forget accuracy and finesse, there is nothing that feels nearly as good as unleashing a personal John Woo bullet hell on some poor mook's unsuspecting fizzog.

The Iaito from Dark Souls. It may not be the best weapon in the game, but finishing an opponent off with dat R2 never ever gets old.

The Hand-cannon from Bioshock Infinite. I felt that most of the guns (and, indeed, the shooting) in BI was pretty generic, until I got my hands on this bad boy. There is something about it's kick and heft that makes every trigger pull feel apocalyptically satsifying! Also, reminds me of Roland Deschain from The Dark Tower series.

Hitman's Fibre Wire. Barring the accidental deaths introduced in Blood Money, this is the weapon of a true professional; up close and personal. This simple, yet elegant tool of death always brings a sociopathic smile to my face, just as it brings a purple-reddish tinge to my mark's.

Another Hitman weapon, this one introduced during Blood Money. Nearly as satisfying as the fibre wire but for entirely different reasons. Come on, who here didn't bury a Kitchen Devil into drunk Santa's face at range during "You Better Watch Out"...?

I came to post that! Spread Needle was awesome.

Garland7G · Jul 30, 2013

Druid epic weapon in Everquest, Man it was a bitch to obtain but I loved it, makes me want to resurrect my old account sometimes even though I don't remember the login or password lol.

Dusk Golem · Jul 30, 2013

Hunting Shotgun (Killing Floor)

Infinite Ammo Rocket Launcher (for some reason it felt the most badass to me in RE5)

Chainsaw (Silent Hill 1

Fuck Those Grey Children UP

)

Nopren · Jul 30, 2013

The G3 from Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

This paired with the recon and motion mines almost felt like cheating.

TUROK · Jul 30, 2013

Every gun in Doom 64. The sound effects for the guns are still fucking badass.

Best minigun in any game ever.

Right now? The Undertow Vigor in Bioshock: Infinite, particularly

after you free Elisabeth from the operating table.

HAVE FUN ON THE WAY DOWN! *waves*

velociraptor · Jul 30, 2013

Lightning gun from Killzone 2

Ryuuga · Jul 30, 2013

Switch Axe (Monster Hunter):

And soon....Charge Axe:

Yes you're seeing right. It's a sword, shield and axe all in one.

The RYNO V

Hell yeah! The gun plays the Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture when you're firing.

How badass is that?

FloatOn · Jul 30, 2013

every weapon from BULLETSTORM

The pistol in Halo is probably my favourite.

ChimpanzeeThat · Jul 30, 2013

Definitely the lightsabers from Force Unleashed 2.

The first game made them seem like baseball bats because they didn't cut through anything, but in the sequel you could cut off limbs, they felt far more powerful.

Bingo.

Well, except maybe the Ripper...

It actually fires at tempo, with the missiles where the cannon shots are.
You don't get any better than the Ryno V!

I swear this was the only gun I used in cs 1.5. I just loved the animation when switching to it.

Flak Cannon-Unreal Tournament

~~Boomstick~~Hunting Shotgun-Killing Floor

Zoracka · Jul 30, 2013

Popping headshots after headshots, best feel ever.

Killing Floor.

luokyl · Jul 30, 2013

The Cyber Cannon (?) in Saints Row 3 made me feel like Mega Man. Infinite ammo doesn't hurt either.

kinggroin · Jul 30, 2013

Did anyone say the monster hunter hammer?

Cause that

WeAreStarStuff · Jul 30, 2013

This gun made me so happy.

Architechnophile · Jul 30, 2013

The fully upgraded Earth Hammer in Onimusha....2, was it?

IIRC, it actually pancaked lesser enemies. Like, turned 'em into little flat discs.

Akuun · Jul 30, 2013

The P90 in GoldenEye for the N64.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

zruben · Jul 30, 2013

some of my choices:

Masamune, from Chrono Trigger

Glided Sword from Majora's Mask

Spread Gun, from Contra

and why not, Metal Blade from Megaman 2... that thing completely broke the game, LOL.

Dr. Buni · Jul 30, 2013

Hunting Horn, Hammer and Switch Axe in MH3U. Damn I love those weapons (and the game, of course).

Syf · Jul 30, 2013

Gonna go with the Falcon's Talons from Ninja Gaiden 2. They might be my favorite weapon in any game; I always felt like a boss while using them.

Rollo Lawson · Jul 30, 2013

Terrible Shotgun in Fallout 3

Mileena · Jul 30, 2013

Deagle in CS1.6 (ONEDEAG!)

It's so bad in GO

The RYNO V: Does your weapon play the 1812 overture while firing? I didn't think so.

RYNO V was okay, but the music got old very quickly. At least it's better than 3's, which is the least satisfying gun in the entire game when fully upgraded.

I personally prefer the RYNO II:

EDarkness · Jul 30, 2013

M-99 Saber in Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. I fraggin' loved that gun and it made me feel awesome with all of the headshot.

Shinjica · Jul 30, 2013

Pony gun in Red Faction

phoeniks314 · Jul 30, 2013

The sword is actually pretty weak, but it looks badass

Mik_Pad · Jul 30, 2013

The Hand Canon from Dead Space 2, seeing parts of necromorphs flying like confetti was awesome.
