The crowbar from half-life 2.

I'm up against an entire race of super-advanced hostile aliens, and this is all I get?

Ah, well. The gravity gun more than makes up for it later, though.
It was useful. The crowbar 1-hits any form of headcrabs.

The Needler in Halo. Pretty useless in one-on-one combat and completely useless against multiply enemies.

In the creature part of spore, your creature can pick up a stick.I never knew what was the point of it!!!It didnt help me in killing other creatures or anything!It wasa just a useless stick.

Sniper from left 4 dead, does anybody actually use that thing?
You cant tell me headshots with that arn't satisfying. Also it only takes one shot from wherever you are to take a hunter off someone whos pinned or one shot from afar for smokers if you can aim. I use it for fun but yeah its definatly not the most effective for all occassions.

I hate weapons that are too good than too bad.when they ruin the gamebalence. Like the awp in css or shotgun from cod2.

Needlers are amazing, fast rate of fire, homing pink exploding projectiles, plus the ability to dual-wield them. Deadly, and humiliating.

DP-28. It's an OK weapon and all, but compared to the German MGs (34 and 42), it only has a slightly larger ammo capacity than the 34 and it doesn't support barrel change - meaning that if it overheats, you have to wait forever for it to cool down. Yeah yeah, short controlled bursts, but if Jerry's rushing your defence position in front of the last objective with endless Schütze and Sturmtruppe through a smokescreen in front of their spawn, short controlled bursts will do nothing, you need to spray. The 34 is a bit better but barrel change takes a while, but really, nothing beats the 42. Nothing.

I obviously disagree. To duel-wield them is the only way to actually beat an opponent one-on-one. They're weak weapons. Try to defeat 2 opponents at the same time whilst your holding 2 Needlers just by shooting and not punching. You won't get a single kill unless the people your fighting are new to the game.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! I think we are all forgetting some of the worst weapons in video games. Yes, people have mentioned some bad ones (Pistols in Fallout 3, Any Halo weapon, Farcry 2 weapons etc, etc) but here are a few that people have seemed to neglect.

Killzone 2 - The magnum pistol that took longer than the normal pistol to fire, held 6 bullets and you needed to hit people about 8 times to kill them. Unless you shot them in the head, in which it only takes 7.

Gears Of War 1 - Magnum. Why? Seriously. The standard pistol you start with is once again better, nevermind the Lancer or any other weapon. If you were down to the magnum you were better off trying to meele the opposition to death with your shotgun.

Final Fantasy Tactics - Daggers, Flails, Axes...pretty much anything other than swords, guns and...well that's pretty much it. Oh, and level 5 death in Final Fantasy 7.

Oblivion - The meele combat system. Oh, wait...Sorry, that's merely a game complaint. Lemme rephrase that.

Oblivion - Any meele weapon. (Far better)

Dawn Of War 2 - The Flamer. Useless, useless weapon. You are better off using the bolter, and even that is...well, quite shocking.

Day Of Defeat - Any automatic weapon. The recoil is much like having sex with an AIDS infected prostitue who is the size of an elephant during mating season. Though it is quite amazing when you actually kill someone with a machine gun in that game. It's honestly an achievement.

Counterstrike - Any Pistol but the USP, the glock and the Deagle? Let's not forget the UMP and all those useless SMGs apart from the MP5.

Final Fantasy 7 - Cath Sith's limit breaks. Yes, all of them.

You could go on and on with this, but really it's quite shocking how bad some weapons are in games.

Then perhaps, you cannot use them the same way I can.

Portal Gun. I've tried, but I can't kill anything with it!
You can kill something with it. Just open a portal on the side of a skyscraper, then under them and watch them splat. :D

My entry has to be spitting in a zombies face in Dead Rising.

The Needler from the Halo series. It falls into the very small category of weapons marked: "Really cool in theory; totally useless in practice".

The Arc Charger and the L11-2 Dragon in Resistance: Fall of Man. Those weapons were useless online, and their secondary fires were just charged up versions of their horrible primary. It was all about the L209 LAARK/M5A2 Carbine Mounted Gernade Launcher.

Haha, but that's the point it's hilarious to traverse the wasteland, beating raiders with a rolling pin as if they were some uppity children that ran through your bakery.
