Keyblades are more like clubs, not practical for a "blade"
Gunblades have a glaring issue, if you look the sword does have a channel for bullets to fire through however the place where the gun attaches as a handle creates a poor structure, using the gunblade as a sword would almost certainly cause the sword part to snap off.
Weapons of healing are designed with 2 purposes in mind, the undead (Not just FF games have this theme, even DnD does), as well as beating on your allies, thus healing them.

umm its endless i watched for 30 mins left it and t is still on now like hours latertwaddle said:
I reckon I'll go with the Breegull Bash from Banjo Tooie.
It was an egg unlockable attack that allowed you to use Kazooie as a sort of club, by belting the area in front of you with considerable force.
Not only was it impractical to use in an actual fight, Kazooie made a distressed groaning noise that made you feel like a real douchebag if you did use it.

The Bubble Gun is Just Cause 2.
Wait, that's a joke weapon. Eh, nevermind.
I suppose maybe the starter pistol in Goldeneye. Compared to Perfect Dark's monster of a handcannon, it's pitiful. No? Eh, I'm not really good with this.
Maybe the Blade of Woe from Oblivion, or that kid's leg in Diablo II.

The laser gun in the first Sillent Hill. Yeah it has infinite ammo and fires a constant beam but its weak, the beam is invisible so its hard to aim and the gun doesn't stagger or knock enemies back so you have to pray they die before they get into striking distance. Add in the time and energy you have to go through to get the UFO ending that unlocks the weapon and its just not worth it.
yeah if you ever get the chance to try it, the M-920 Cain can kill the final boss in one hit on easy mode...GraegoriHauss said:Two words:

It's basically Fallout 3's Fat Man; it launches nukes. Except it's a convenient, portable 24th-century nuke launcher that folds up and neatly fits in your back pocket when not in use. The impracticality is that there is rarely--if ever--a space large enough to use it in and not kill yourself with it. This downside is exacerbated by the fact that ammo for this win-gun is prohibitively scarce.
But when you DO get to use it...
*Ka-chak...BRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIIII--KA-CHOOMP!*
*Win.*
Then you obviously never used the Blackhawk [http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Blackhawk]. With no recoil in scope, why would you use any other pistol?bl4ckh4wk64 said:
I used that to great effect near cliff edges.SomeLameStuff said:
As for a general weapon type, I would have to say two handed weapons in most RPG I have played. The attack rate makes them pretty much useless as the miss rate is still the same or more and the damage isn't high enough to compensate. I just simply pass completely on any two handed weapon.
THIS! Seriously, i know that it would hurt if you thwacked someone on the head with it but... ITS A KEY! Why not have something sharp!Quantum Roberts said:

Hey, it was cool having an on-rails version of a hoverboard to jet around on in gloriously linear fashion.zipzod said:
jk, I'm just trollin'.
The hunting rifle in l4d1, I mean accurate headshots asside if your team mates are willing to stand around for an age while you pick off a few zombies from the distance, any other occasion its useless... like when the tank is charging at you or pretty much any horde event.
Hehe I had no idea how to answer this thread until I saw that. I worked hard to get that gun... and only used once... and died in the process.Andy999 said:
When I read the thread title the weapon that came to mind was Sword-Chucks [http://www.nuklearforums.com/showthread.php?t=36835] but as these actually exist they don't meet the criteria.
Deus Ex was a game with so many options you could go with so many things. I swore by that crossbow though. So many silent take-downs. It got really good when you leveled up.Hazy said:
I can easily think of a way to attack someone with the portal gun. Put a portal 20 stories up on the side of a building or high up on a cliff face. Then just shoot the other portal underneath the guy. Have a nice fall. Since you wouldn't have to keep replacing the high-up portal you could keep shooting multiple targets by just aiming at their feet. If used in conjunction with any other weapon, even an ordinary handgun, you could also inflict some serious damage.Blemontea said:
Plus it'd just be damn useful in general.
Many revolvers can actually be used for hunting, and are as they're less bulky than a rifle. Usually they use 8" barrels and fire pretty large caliber rounds (.357 mag, .44 mag, .454 Casull). Observe:bl4ckh4wk64 said:
Pistol scopes are different than rifle scopes. The focal point is further away so the gun can be held closer to arm's length. I have the .357 version of this gun, although with the 6" barrel and no scope. Even then it's damn accurate.
OT: The grenades in Doom 3 bounced around like rubber balls. I barely used them.
The nukes in Starcraft. Despite how freaking cool they are and the fact that they inflict massive damage, they're at the top of the tech ladder. Not only that, but you have to have the building required so Ghosts can be trained. Then you actually have to build a whole other command center to add a nuclear silo to it (or move your existing one.) Then you have to research cloak for the Ghosts as that's practically a necessity, and spend a butt-load of resources to to build the missile. Then you send the ghost in to lase the target at which point everybody playing gets a cheerful "Nuclear launch detected.", just so they know one's coming. If the ghost is killed before the targeting is complete, you've just wasted a missile and all you've spent on it.
But when you can pull it off, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I have heard that Starcraft 2 makes the nukes much more useful.
