Strange weapons in video games you like

[zerooneeleven]

So what strange, unique, or obscure weapons do you guys like or found interesting in video games?

Right off the top of my head, Fallout 3 had some pretty interesting weapons: the Repellant Stick and the Miss Launcher to name a few. And in Red Faction, I saw some people running around with Ostrich hammers. And then there's the classic harisen aka paper fan in SSB.

Stranger's Wrath comes to mind.

The Keyblade is my Favorite.
But I also find it awesome how Zexion Fights with a Book. I can imagine him fighting while shouting "BACK OFF, I HAVE LITERATURE!"
Actually, pretty much the entire Organization Xiii, So many awesome weapons.

Cerebral bore from Turok 2. Other than that I used to play a rogue in WoW that was known to dual wield a pair of enchanted fish.

Hm, I remember that game! I wish they would make it available as an arcade game.

There was a gravity gun on an old Turok Game on the Xbox.

Fuck yeah that weapon was awesome - pick up enemies, slam them around the room and watch as their limbs fly off. And then use the body itself as a weapon against other enemies.

Plasmids from BioShock.
They were pretty sweet.

Shark gun.

I've forgotten what game, but I know it exists.

There is one in LEGO Universe, I happen to know. Which brings to mind a few weapons in Earthworm Kim 3D, namely the Chicken Launcher.

The MIRV from Fallout 3. Really only a weapon you use when you have cheats on and are just dicking around, because there is never a single situation in that game where the MIRV does not constitute massive overkill.
Hell, there's only a handful of situations where the standard Fatman doesn't constitute massive overkill.

Fallout 3 flaming sword:

Lawnmower blade
Motorcycle Brake Handle
Motorcycle Gas Tank
Pilot Light

You were literally running around with a gas tank on your back, and a pilot light burning right next to the tube connecting to it. I loved that thing, and wished I was insane enough to build one in real life.

It may not have been ridiculous game-mechanics wise (how many magical flaming swords are there?), but seriously, imagine that thing in real life lol.

tf2 scout's fish, nothing special, just a fish slap
and +1 to KH weapons

See many of the weapons of the Ratchet & Clank franchise. My absolute favorites from those games would probably be the Sheepinator (take a wild guess at what it does) or the Groovitron (not a weapon per-se, but it forces all enemies in the affected area to bust into dance, giving you well needed time to laugh at and then eliminate your foes).

That's in Armed and Dangerous, XBOX (not 360) and PC. Loved that gun.

 

[Harry Mason]

Some of the stuff people have done with Creatinators in Little Big Planet 2.
There's nothing like shooting exploding babies out of your brain at your friends.

 

[ChupathingyX]

Does the entire Ratchet and Clank series count?

 

[Wayneguard]

I love oversized paladin hammers. Preferably inscribed with runes...

Metal Wolf Chaos had one as well. Unlikely that he played, but it's a possibility.

Ah, I think it was Turok Evolution, I played it on the Gamecube (and I still own it). I remember that weapon. Remember the temporal cube things? Throw one with secondary fire and it's BLACK HOLE TIMEEEEEEEE.
