You can tell somebody knows what a good special weapon should be when they pick the Cerebral Bore
Main Weapon - Buriza-Do Kyanon from Diablo 2 socketed with a 40/15: A crossbow with quickly reloading bolts that pierces targets and freezes them on contact. Also makes me faster and offers me protection for reasons.
Side Arm - Firelance, unique Alien Blaster from Fallout 3: Being an alien weapon I only have access to a finite amount of ammo but it is small, extremely fast, and whatever I shoot will turn into crackling blue embers. Gives me access to Vats because I'm not skilled in fighting and I don't want to hurt anyone but if I have to I'm fucking going for it.
Melee Weapon - Crystalis: It's a sword imbued with the power of Wind, Fire, Water, and Lightning and it shoots fully charged X buster shots with every swing. It is also known as Godslayer :v
Special Weapon - Ice Breaker from Destiny: Plasma firing sniper rifle. Regenerates 1 shot of ammo every 5 seconds and holds up to 6 shots.

Main: Widow's Kiss (Overwatch) - I felt like cheating and having a primary that was both a sniper and an assault rifle.
Side: Raffica Pistol (Uncharted 4) - Three round burst pistols seem more effective in games to me.
Melee: Siegfried (Fire Emblem Fates) - It's a sword that can shoot beams as well.
Special: M-920 Cain (Mass Effect 2) - It's nicknamed the "Nuke Launcher".

Melee: Fan from Super Smash Bros. Brawl - fan-lock opponent

Main weapon: Widow's Kiss (Overwatch) - It's an assault rifle that can turn into a sniper rifle. Versatile and deadly, so definitely useful as the core weapon.
Sidearm: M-79 (Far Cry 4) - Why have a pistol as a sidearm when instead you can have a one-shot grenade launcher? Explosions, hooray!
Melee: Holy Moonlight Sword (Bloodborne) - A huge-ass sword that can be charged with energy and throw said energy as projectiles as a bonus? Just keeping with the versatile motif.
Special: RYNO V (Ratchet & Clank: Crack in Time) - Because sometimes you need lots and lots of explosions. And this is my personal favorite of all the RYNO versions.

Main: Mass Effect 1 M7-Lancer or Destiny's Red Death
Side: Halo 1 Pistol
Melee: Mass Effect 3 Omni Tool
Special: A Titan from Titanfall or The Gjallarhorn from Destiny
Unlimited ammo for my main weapon. Super accurate side arm that I can use as a main weapon. Omni tool as my melee since it's unlimited, can change shape, and do plenty of other helpful things. The Titan from Titanfall if I can if not The Gjallarhorn since it just absolutely annihilates everything.

Main: Flak Cannon (UT) - it's the best gun ever, and should be more than sufficient for short range combat.
Sidearm: Railgun (Q3) - for long range.
Melee: Lightsaber (JK series) - as someone already mentioned, offensive power and bullet stopping capability.
Special: Tau Cannon (HL) - more for the movement than anything else.

Main Weapon: Portal Gun from Portal 2. Instead of fighting, I'll just portal away from my enemies really quickly!
Side Arm: Sonic Screwdriver from Doctor Who: The Adventure Game. I know The Doctor always insists this isn't a weapon, but let's be honest...
Special Weapon: Rewind Powers from Life is Strange. If I'm not able to use my Portal Gun or Sonic Screwdriver fast enough, I can just rewind time! I can't use it too often though, or elseOH CRAP SPOILERS I'll get a nosebleed!
Melee Weapon: Wicked Weave from Bayonetta. ...do I really need to justify this choice?

Cool thread!
Main: G6 Commando - Max Payne 3
This category was kind of a toss up for me, hard to pick one assault rifle over another, but the G6 Cammando seems to have a good balance of power, ammo capacity, and accuracy, the latter likely coming from Max Payne 3's stellar mechanics more than anything else.
Side: HE .44 Mag - Resistance 2
The Resistance series' .44 Magnum 6-shot revolver that has a killer secondary feature in which the bullets can be detonated by the user after they're embedded in an enemy.
Melee: Tomahawk - Red Dead Redemption
Hack, slash, throw, a versatile melee weapon with that old west feel.
Special: Zodiac - Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando
I was going to go with the RYNO but then I remembered the Zodiac, which forms a blinding white light and vaporizes everything on the screen... So yeah, I'll go with that.

Primary:left 4 Dead auto shotgun. Up close and fast.
secondary: silenced tranq gun from MGS2. Silent and effective.
Melee: High Frequency blade from MGS1,2,4 and Rising. It cuts nearly anything and can deflect billets.
Special Re5 rocket launcher. I have friends that had world record speed times for that game thanks to the rocket launcher. It destroys everything.

Main: An automatic shotgun from a number of games, like the AA-12 or Saiga. These things have a high rate of fire, are really versatile because they can fire shells, slugs, stun rings, and even explosive rounds. Couple that with a drum magazine and it's a nice main fallback weapon.
Side: MGS Tranq gun, put everyone to sleep for ages and trivialize stealth sections.
Melee: Sam's High Frequency Blade from Metal Gear Rising. Raiden's sword could already cut through damn near everything with little effort, and Sam's is even more potent. Anything that matches to close the distance would be promptly cut down, regardless of armor. I could also use it to get past annoying environmental impediments.
Special: RYNO. Specifically the RYNO from Deadlocked that dropped lethal beams from orbit on everything on the screen, piercing and scorching the earth in the process. Useful if I'm faced with a giant KH2-sized horde of enemies, or creatures the size of buildings like Quadraxis or a Colossus.

Main Weapon: Gorgon Assault Rifle (With incendiary rounds, Mass Effect series)
Side Weapon: A Maliwan Acid SMG (Borderlands series)
Melee Weapon: Vi's Gauntlets (League of Legends)
Special Weapon: Killer Wail (Splatoon)
If we're going old school shooters, special weapon needs to be a screen clearing weapon, setting up a Killer Wail in a crowded corridor should do wonders. for the main shooty guns, elemental weapons are a must for me. Finally, the gauntlets as melee because i just like punching things. Asking questions while doing so optional.

Melee: Galatine: Tempo Royale stance (Warframe)
I almost had a Tempo Royale drop from a Bursa... but then we lost a long as mission right at the end due to bullshit... fuck me...
Hell, me and a friend were able to get the Vengeful Revenant stance from the one last big event (.25% chance to get it)
