Worst. Weapon. Ever.

The Fork of Horripilation in Oblivion and Morrowind

So many people already said the BB gun, so I´ll just go with the Straight Raizor from F:NV. Seriously, I only used the fucking thing in level 1, to kill bloatflies. I doubt I can think of a weaker melee weapon... Wait, the handbag from Dead Rising 2. It´s funny, but sucks.

 

[Cipher1]

The MIRV from fallout sure its an awesome weapon in theory but its just so useless it fires 7 mini nukes which are quite rare and theres only 3 enemies that aren't killable with the normal fatman which only fires 1 nuke at a time and to top it all of the MIRV has a habit of killing you in the process.

 

[ACman]

Klobb from Goldeneye, takes 7 shots to shoot through a pane of glass. Oh the frustration.

Oh man, when I was nine I thought that weapon was so cool 'cause you could use TWO of 'em. Then I tried to shoot someone with it. Yeah... at least the ammo was plentiful.

Damn. Ninja'd.

Oh well. At least it's featured in my profile pic.

 

[Ordinaryundone]

I'd say the Gunblade... mainly because I have no idea how that thing would realistically work...

It doesn't actually shoot bullets. When you pull the trigger, it causes the blade to vibrate, making it do more damage. Thats why you have to pull it in sync with Squall's attacks during his Limit Breaks for more damage.

As for me....

Chinese Pistol and .32 pistol in Fallout 3. Both are rarer, and worse, than your standard 10mm which you find EVERYWHERE (heck, you'll probably have 2 or more just coming out of the Vault). They sell for decent prices though.

The LME? (Bubble Gun, forgot what its really called) in Vanquish. I can think of....2 places in the game where it's useful. Otherwise, its a waste of space.

The starting pistol in Mass Effect 2. Completely outclassed by the Carnifex in every way other than ammo supply. When do you get the Carnifex? On the first real mission most people do. Maybe the second.

The Spear of Loginus in God of War 2. Its got nothing on the Blades or the Hammer.

 

[ParanoidEngineer]

The cattle prod from Deus Ex.

*sneak up behind guard* INSTA KNOCK-OUT JAB!
*guard, conspicuously un-sleepy, turns round*
WHAT THE HELL, KILL THE FACIST!
*JC then wastes a whole clip of prod on the guard*
*picks up knife*
nuts to non-lethal, time to stab some prats!
*two-hit takedown, no ammo, woohoo!*

snip

is this even up for debate its obviously mr saturn from ssbb all it does is 1 damage and thats it.

 

[Kieran Chakravorty]

Shotgun in most games, the basic pistol in GTA4. Melee in the harder modes of Dead Space.

 

[bbad89]

Deus Ex, silenced pistol. 900000000000 shots to kill someone, somewhat limited ammo. I was found in the end of the Hell's Kitchen level, where you have to infiltrate the compound at the end. Guess what I got stuck using? JC Denton, the great augmented warrior from Heaven, was bleeding profusely, crippled, legless, suffering from lead proficiency, armless on the ground. I managed to escape somehow.

 

[nin_ninja]

The cane from Dr. Jekyll and Mister Hyde ... it literally does nothing!!!

The plunger from Fallout Tactics. Again, nothing.

 

[EeviStev]

Wait, the handbag from Dead Rising 2. It´s funny, but sucks.

My answer is this. And the coat hanger. And the spray paint. And the dinner plates, metal bat, gems, water gun, spitball gun, and a great big ET CETERA

 

[Spencer Petersen]

The Boxing Gloves in Fallout: New Vegas. My hands were literally stronger

That's kinda the point, but hit them enough with the gloves till they pass out then pull out your fire axe and wail on them

 

[Spookimitsu]

The survival knives from Resident Evil. If your life is in danger you're better off slitting your throat with it to avoid experiencing what it's like to be eaten.

The knife was actually useful in part 4!

 

[Double A]

Blunt weapons in an Elder Scrolls game if you specialize in swords of any kind.

It's just that swinging a mace is so fundamentally different from a sword. It's too bad Bethesda thought it wasn't realistic and removed it for Skyrim in favor of 1-handed skills and specialization in different kinds of weapons.

The Boxing Gloves in Fallout: New Vegas. My hands were literally stronger

Maybe because boxing gloves are designed to cushion the fist's impact so boxing is safer?

Every weapon in Halo:CE that's not the pistol.

That's not true, the sniper rifle makes a pretty good melee weapon.

Captacha, I can't see through giant fucking tilde marks.

The Beam Rifle from Star Wars Battlefront II

This weapon is supposed to be a reward upgrade for the Sniper class, but the scope has a lower magnification, it takes twice as many shots to drop a target, and headshots do not 1-hit-kill, I mean what is the point in a sniper rifle that can't kill with a headshot? However, the single most incompetent feature is the fact that, being a BEAM Rifle, every shot you fire leaves a great glowing trace from your target back to your sniper nest, which persists for about three seconds after the shot is fired, and instantly attracting a hail of enemy fire to your position. Quite possibly, the most useless sniper rifle seen in a theatre of warfare.

I havent played Battlefront in forever but i don't remember having a problem with the Beam Rifle... Hmm maybe i should go play it again and find out.

Bubblegun from Earthworm Jim http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_b0owDSkzCPY/TSiPNyJEcAI/AAAAAAAAA9Y/nXcEfRqTK9A/s400/539.jpg

Damn, ninja'd. However, the Bubble Gun was from EWJ2

Other than that I usually find basic fists pretty useless in most games.

 

[Watchmacallit]

Worst gun I've ever come across is also the most powerful.

The Experimental MIRV from Fallout 3. I mean...Its a shotgun filled with mini-nukes...What idiot thought that was a good idea? Its a long range mortar, you can't hit shit with it.

Shoot it straight, kill yourself, shoot up, miss. Loss loss situation. Unless you're aiming for a skyscraper.
