I've been thinking. As I was playing TF2, I started to think on how the people at Valve came up with the ideas for there weapons like the Jarate and the Rocket Jumper. Obviously, these weapons don't work in real life as throwing a jar of urine at your enemy won't do anything except disgust them and probably get you arrested. But it begs the question, What if these weapons actually worked like they did in the game?
So, As a fun little game/challenge. I want you to take a weapon from any video game and come up with a way on how it would actually be possible in the world we live in today. You can make it any way you want whether it's a picture, video, or just a description. It doesn't just have to be from video games either, it can also be from television. So give your best shot and let's see how creative you are on your Real Life vs Gaming Logic!

For my entry, I chose the Specialized Killstreak Weapons from TF2. These are literally weapons with shiny plastic wrap on them. I mean, think about it. Its useless coloring that gleams in the light that does absolutely nothing. It just makes your weapon look a little bit cooler. But it charges you a lot just to acquire it in the first place (whether its in robot parts or Keys). Pearlescent or iridescent paint is a very expensive paint for metal objects, like cars and guns, but in the end; all it it does is grab someone's attention that you don't want if your trying to be stealthy. In the game, new players normally steer away from those players in fear of them being "pro" but people who have been playing for hours will normally target said player since in the eyes of most players, its a useless, stupid thing. Which in reality, is what it is as well. The sheen will just grab an enemies attention, blow your cover, and you will be killed.
