Probably any gun in Deus Ex's The Nameless Mod.

Theres a gun which makes people so fat they explode, theres a little melee weapon which blows up your target in one hit which you can never find ammo for, theres a napalm launcher and a sword that sets people on fire.

No wait, the last two were pretty cool...actually all are pretty cool, but making someone fat and exploding them is a weird way to kill someone.

Dagger of friendship from Oblivion: S.I.

Stuffed bear from DR1&DR2

Egg from RE4 & RE5

Poop Hammer from Deathspank

Any white-class weapon in Borderlands.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Any handgun with a scope. I'm talking to you fallout 3. There's no practical use for a scope on a handgun, especially if you consider the handgun's effective range in RL is around 50 feet. And with the recoil, that scope is going to give you one hell of a dose of scope-eye.

Scoot's scattergun. There's no way it could possibly function in real life. It's another prime example of Valve's weapon designers never having actually fired a weapon before.
Unrealistic, sure. Impractical? I take it you have never been shot by the scout: In game, its very practical. And as for Valve never fireing a Gun: Well, you really have to reason to think that, because how guns work in real life bears no relevance to what makes a game fun, particularly a game in TF2s style.
Oh I've been hit by plenty of scatterguns. None of 'em killed me unless I was already below 80HP or so. The FaN is way more dangerous.

Scoot's scattergun is a physical impossiblity. There's no way in hell it would work.

The Chinese Pistol in Fallout 3.

Has anyone ever used that piece of junk?
No, the .32 cal pistol is worse. Much worse. Maxes out at 4 DMG not the 5 DMG that the Chinese pistol has.

But that's not the worst, the worst is the Plasma Pistol from Halo. That thing is "shite on a crusty role" to quote Yahtzee out of context.
lolwut

thats one of the best weapons to dual wield

I didn't say Halo 2, 3, or ODST. I said Halo. As in Halo: Combat Evolved. As in the first one. Where you can't dual wield.
You dont need it to be a good gun, charge, 1 shot, melee dead.

So what you're basically saying is that a weapon is impractical in a game entirely because it would be impractical in real life. That doesn't make any sense.

Pfft no that thing is kinda kick ass since it is the perfect charge up and shoot combo.

Impractical? The Experimental MIRV in Fallout 3. Awesome? Yes. But there's no area in the game where it is actually useful; frankly, you'd be lucky to even survive firing it.
This was the most effective weapon for fighting the super mutant behemoths, and threfore vital for the achievement the bigger they are...

but from the same the .32 pistol is terrible

Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising, all the missile launchers had about 15 seconds long unskipable realod animations, and they glued you in place.
And to top it all off they added autoreload when you selected the launcher, so you run for cover from a tank, quickly switch to missile launcher, and Boom! grounded 1 foot from cover for the next 15 seconds... I can't even begin to explain the hate I feel for that bullsh*t.

The railway rifle would be rather odd in the real world...but in the gaming world? The Buster Sword, that thing is just too big and clunky.

That is true but I just mean when in reality would you ever see someone use something like that.
Flamethrowers? Shotguns? Poison Gas?

The BB gun is the best gun in the game, he am headshotted a BoS trooper and doesn't afraid of anything.

Aw HELL NO! The plasma pistol is actually very good, it can disable vehicles like tanks, giving you the chance of hijacking it. It also disables shields, 1 shot and a punch is enough to kill a guy. When well used its just a little behind of the shotgun although it has more uses.

OT: Serious Sam's knife. Like, you never use it.
