Flamethrowers.
I'm still waiting for a game that can accurately and realistically depict a flamethrower in action
And you will wait for a while, because unless you're using them against the Colossi, whoever makes the game they appear in is basically saying "F*ck balance"
Eeeeeh....I would say so in actuality. Being the guy with the flamethrower back when they were still used was very dangerous. One bullet could make you burst into flames so if the game incorperated this into the game in multiplayer, it would solve the balance issue that you say would exist. Plus the flamethrowers only have an range of 40 meters, compared to a pistol which usually have a range of 100 yards
Really? I thought the flamethrower, well, the American model used in 1944 at least, could shoot farther than that, by a little bit. Well, I guess 40 yards is pretty good anyway, given that it become difficult to see the user behind a wall of fire, thick black, oily smoke, and wildly refracting light, 40 yards is good enough. Plus, the screeching, wailing sound that flamethrowers make is left out inmost games, and that would be a scary thing to hear knowing that it can burn you if you're not careful.

Pistols. They're the laughing stock of weapons in video games. I'd like to see a game where they're appreciated.

Too few games allow me to beat enemies into submission with a fish.
Well then this cannot go unmentioned:

that was awesome!
we totally need more of those in gaming
imagine CoD were you use a cod...

god that was awful...
Well there is more where that came from.


Now THAT is a humiliating way to be killed (notice the horse whiney sound effect?)

This I suspect will remain a fan-mod only, and not like the first example ever become official.

A nuclear _____. I would have fits if there were more nuke weapons in games. No matter how impractical they may be.
EDIT:
Jedoro's Ulaks would also be acceptable.
Fat Man in Fallout.

There, you're sorted.
Yup. Used the hell out of it. And got modded versions of it. But that is still only one game. I could probably count on one hand the number of games that have let me use nuclear weapons.
That should really change.
You could play DEFCON?

You can have nukes fired at enemy cities...

Vending machines. I hardly see any game where you can pick up a vending machine and use it to kill. Bionic commander almost did and had the means but decided to sell out.

Dual-wield Bolt-Action Sniper Rifles.
Maybe because they are impossible to reload dual-wielding? Unless you are very skilled with your tongue.

...

Ahem.

OT: A sheep bomb.
It's not supposed to be realistic. You reload with your psychic bolt-working powers!
Although I am very skilled with my tongue.

It WOULD be pretty embarrassing to be beaten by THAT

You must have got some brain from those exams; whenever I stare at my butterfly knife it doesn't unfold itself. =/

...I'll take your word for it, my man. XD
Whatever, you know it'll appear in Modern Warfare 3.

Hehe, you KNOW it. =D

They don't use the M4/M16 variants with ACOGs or Aimpoint Reddots enough. Seriously. Hardly ever see those.

Pickaxe, I would love to have a pickaxe as a weapon kind of like Sergei from Black Ops because I find that would be pretty cool.
Don't know if someone has mentioned this, but you get a pickaxe for a weapon in Demon Souls and in Penumbra. (I'm currently playing Penumbra so it just popped into my mind.)
