Best ever weapon

[Booldawg]

(I put this in CB by mistake. Best ever weapon means something totally different in there)

In Just Cause 2 theres a weapon thats basically a modified jet engine styled into an 'under the arm' bazooka.

It acts as an eff off big hoover that can be used to blow people sky high - at short range it can even turn cars over. Great to stand at the side of the freeway and ruin peoples day! The physics of it are spot on (as you'd expect from JC2) It mullers anything in its way!

What are the most memorable gaming weapons for you?

Mr Do's ball. It bounced mercilessly until it hit something.

I remember having fun with the taser in Syphon Filter back on the PS1.

I recently enjoyed killing people with the massive purple magic wand in Saints Row 2!

It wasnt a magic wand but a ladies pleasure toy, forgot this site goes weird and replaces words when you type in anything remotely naughty!

There was also one of those, same colour, in GTA:San Andreas!

Hi Dawg, I told my son about this and he wants to know where to find it as he hasn't found it?

'Jet Engine as an under arm Bazooka'!
Intresting, but how do they account for Newtons 3rd law ? If as you say,
< 'The physics of it are spot on' > ?
In case you have forgotten or were never taught , Newtons 3rd Law of motion ( one of the 'cornerstones of Physics' ) states that
'To each action there is an equal and opposite reaction'
Then again where is the fuel tank ? even the smallest jet engine produced uses around 1 litre of fuel per second ! some thing that could 'turn cars over' would need at least 20 times that so where do you store/ carry fuel for a weapon that uses 20 litres of fuel a second ?

[Booldawg]

Eddie - I will take the options 'Forgotten' and 'Never taught'.

to johne - its only downloadable content unfortunately. you'll need MS points to purchase. well worth it though, even if the physics AREN'T spot on *rolls eyes*

1/ The rocket launcher from Unreal Tournament 1 (PC). Probably the most accurate, satisfying projectile weapon in an FPS, for me.
2/ The plasma rifle from Doom (PS1). The most reliable quick response weapon capable of handling almost anything upto the cyberdemon. Safe from splash damage at short range it was my weapon of choice during the later levels.
3/ Double berettas from FEAR (PC). A starting weapon capable of killing with one shot right to the endgame - spectacularly efficient with used with bullet time.
4/ The Negotiator from Ratchet & Clank, Tools of Destruction. Cheap ammo and capable of controlling swarm attacks with great stopping power.
5/ The Ripper - Dead Space (PS3) Great mainstay close quarter weapon, a safe choice to equip when entering unknown areas. Just what's need to keep those things at arms length and satisfyingly brutal.

Now I was goiung to say Ratchet and Clank have some great weapons. The Rhyno was my personal favourite closely followed by the Bouncer.
