What is the coolest weapon out of every FPS game?

We allowed a second pick right?

This could be one of the coolest weapons or well a weapon that says more about the devs then anything else.

So Rage wars added more weapons on top of the ones already in Turok 2.
It also added a deviantart artist's wet dream


So as the name implies and you can imagine in your mind.

It inflates the enemy you shoot with it, shoot them enough and they explode.


Would it be sad to mention I remember this gun over anything else in rage wars?
 
Cheating a little bit but every single weapon in Blood is fun to use. Even the pitchfork.


The genius of Blood is that every single weapon is not only fun to use but every single one has practical value. Most other FPS you stick to 3-4 guns with a BFG-equivalent as a reserve for boss fights or mob enemy encounters. So you find yourself using every weapon for all kinds of situations. Think about this: once you get the chaingun in Doom did you EVER need to go back to the pistol? No. Same with the super shotty in Doom 2 and once you get that there's no real reason to ever use the standard shotgun ever again.

If I were forced to choose just one then I have to go with the flare gun.


It's the 2nd weapon you get if you know where secrets are but it is so fucking satisfying using the flare gun. It one shots all but the Tesla cultists and the alt-fire transforms the weapon into a secondary rocket launcher. On top of that just burning cultists and zombies to death is so fucking fun.

The Skedar's Reaper in the original Perfect Dark. It's three spinning blades that throw out metal shrapnel like a machine gun with a secondary fire that absolutely mulches shit close-range.

Probably the Gravity Hammer from Halo for me. It's by far one of the most versatile weapons in gaming and its satisfying to crush filthy splitjaws in Halo 3 and bully people in multiplayer.
One of the few things I like about Infinite is how they finally differentiated it from the energy sword by giving it aoe damage in exchange for a small wind-up.

Original MW2, Dual P90's. The amount of rage caused by these things was remarkable. I've never heard the word "nigger" screamed louder, angrier, and more often than when killing people with these guns.
Spaz12 + Grip was hilariously broken too. A lot of good memories getting stoned with the lads playing MW2 into the small hours. Running 5-7-9 killstreaks on Domination (?) game mode where rounds would last an age. Total fucking mayhem.

I always dug the nailgun from the original Quake. Of course, it's basically just a machine gun, but the fact that it was rusty nails tearing things apart instead of boring old bullets made it more fun to use.

In Half-Life, the weapons at the end of Black Mesa and throughout Xen are great. I really like that backpack vacuum explode your face gun.

Also every weapon in Command & Conquer: Renegade that isn't a basic pistol, rifle or shotgun.
