Hey! I'll have you know that I've prodded many a worm to their doom. Now that jump rope on the other hand...
You have that or a baseball bat...exactly
You only have 1 baseball bat by default so :)


Anyway on topic the worst gun is probably the Kamikaze or Suicide bomber thing from Worms, one kills you and deals like 40 damage, the other kills you and poisons the people like next to you..

Baseball bat usually has ammo. Prod doesn't.
Fireball then, rising dragon, dynamite, mine. There are loads of others weapons that would be much more effective to use
Dynamite and mines can both (usually) run out of ammo. And even if you have unlimited fire punches and dragon balls, funny landscaping situations can occur where the geography prevents those weapons from actually getting your target in the water. (It's happened to me on several occasions; I played all the 2D ones from Worms 2 onwards.)

And I've been in situations where the kamikaze and suicide bomber were more useful than weapons like the bazooka or shotgun (although admittedly the latter is usually a game-winner).

My point is just that no weapon in that game (with the possible exception of the white flag) is useless - I feel this is one of the greatest features of the game series as a whole. :)

Ah but if you have 1 health left and you will die next turn then it might be the best option
I found a good reason to use it once

What? WHAT? Prod?

_______O0
ooooooooo\
oooooooooo\sea-sea-sea

Imagine you are the slightly shorter, fatter worm - using prod would reduce his life to zero immediately! So, in theory, it could be one of the MOST powerful weapons!

Also, my first attempt at text art!

2 try stop tons of people sayin these over and over again, i'll say most of the melee weapons from fallout 3 (apart from fire thing u make from schematics, cant remember wot its called)
P.S. that doesn't include weapons from add-ons as i have PS3 and haven't played them yet

Haha that gave me a good chuckle
I know what you mean but in any other situation it's complete crap
Also it doesn't make the home run noise like the baseball bat

I remember there was a lot of weapons no one ever used in Counter Strike because they were either too weak or difficult to use compared to the popular guns like the AK47 and desert eagle.

The man opener is awesome though
It can be as powerful as the flamethrower gainst multiple enemies

The Bubble Gun from Earthworm Jim 2. Since you couldn't change weapons in the Sega Genesis version, it was more of an obstacle than a power up.

PS: Prod was definitely useful.

The nuts you throw at anomalies in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. They don't really do ANYTHING but detect something you can already see and hear anyway. Not very good against anything that shoots or bites you... they kinda only bounce off their helmets like m&ms on an umbrella- and then they shoot you in the face.

that nuke weapon at the end of Crysis you can only use it on the final boss and its kinda crappy
try it at multiplayer, it is awesome.
OT: Fallout 3 BBgun probably does not count, it being a training weapon.
Black, every weapon other then the shotgun.

The SPAS 12 shotgun in Hitman Blood money. It is a good gun and very fun when you buy all the upgrades but the point of the game is to be sneaky so you end up never having to use it.

do spells count? 'cause the blades and chaos spells in fable2 are pretty useless. but if you're talking weapons, then about half of the so-called "legendary" weapons are pretty usless too. the daichi excluded, of course.
