The top 10 best weapons in a FPS

Underated | November 08, 2007 | News | Misc 
A list of the top ten weapons in FPS games ever. It covers old consoles ranging from Super Nintendo's to the consoles of which we all enjoy today. Behold, the Doom chainsaw!
Weapons have always been a major part of most games to date, be they the run-of-the-mill set pieces we see in games nowadays, or truly unique pieces of art and craftsmanship that pop up once in a while. This list is made to commemorate those weapons that stand out amongst the rest; those that were just not incredibly effective at their roles, but incredibly memorable in their implementation, uniqueness or otherwise just being an absolute blast to play with.

    I don't know if it counts, but the Aperture Science Portal Device should have been top.

      Thats the Portal Game's 'weapon' right? Not technically a weapon is it? More like a directed tool >_>

      Ahhhh, the redeemer *remembers fondly*...Awesome weapon...when playing bots, it was so freakin' fun to just shoot it straight up, and fly it around whilst looking for a target...

      Woulda like to try the Cerebral bore though

      I agree that weapon is the illest of all of them.

      Too true. I'm shocked that they didn't add that in...I was hoping for it to at least be in the top 5.

    Not bad but I think something from Resistance should have taken a spot

      I was actually a bit surprised no R&C weapons were there...though the weapons were partly for humor factor in those games >_>

      Some of the Resistance weapons were pretty good, but I don't believe any of them were that original...
