We all discuss about the most badass characters, don't we?

But what's a badass character without his badass weapon? NOTHING, I say.

Here it is, the Top Ten Most Badass Weapons in Gaming History

http://www.ripten.com/2007/11/11/the-top-ten-most-badass-weapons-10-the-gravity-hammer-halo-iii/

I would have put the Blades of Chaos and the Chainsaw Bayonet beyond everything else, but great list overall.

I think talking about cool weapons is boring heh I always say fists. I love that, like in the Godfather the stuff you do with your hands is amazing.

I do agree with you there :). Its such a simple concept really.. "hmm, we like guns and we like chainsaws...what if we were to put them together..?" "my god cliffy! with ideas like that, you're gonna go places around here!" :P

Yeah. Might have something to do with the fact that most people hate getting hit by that by some scrub at the back, who has no chance of passing you, a second away from the finish and coming in second or third as a result.

I agree. The G gun is cool, but not necessarily badass. Oh how the R.Y.N.O. deserves to be there! :cry: It, like the BFG, should get in on name alone: Rip Ya a New One. It deserves it a hell of a lot more than the Buster sword anyway. The Blade of Olympus is way more badass than that oversized slab of sheet metal.

My favourite has to be the minigun in GTA: San Andreas. With that equipped you would just own everything.

I think the Rocket Launcher with Minigun was more awesome. It was so awesome when you get it the first time. "Yay, a minigun.. AND IT FIRES ROCKETS TOO?!?!"

THE CHAINSAW BAYONET. Seriously, you can't deny it. 5 metres from you, a COG is sniping your buddies, laughing, thinking he is king. You normally go, Locust, just behind you, with the Lancer in your hands... 1,5 metres from him, you press and hold 'B', and go toward him. Next up, you rew it up, he turns around and shakes like the ground when its an earthquake and you just tear him apart from his nick across his body as the blood sprays on the screen and you see his body fall down the ground in some pieces.. nasty.

Yawn. In Mace Griffin Bounty Hunter there was a three barrel mini-gun as the starting weapon. Hell to the yes.

Here's the real list. 1. Oddworld: Abe's Odyssey -- Abe's Chant. 2. Castlevania IV -- The Whip. 3. Ninja Gaiden -- Dragon Sword. 4. Okami -- The Brush. 5. Fallout 3 -- Fisto! 6. Timesplitters 2 -- Dual Tommy Guns. 7. Dead Space -- Ripper. 8. Manhunt -- Machete. 9. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask -- Goron Mask. 10. Super Mario World -- Yoshi. If it can be used to kill, it is a weapon.

I declare a fail on everyone in this thread and the source material for not even bringing up the Fire Flower and or The star. I'd even Settle for the T.J Sparkles from the orginal sonic games (The Jesus Sparkles) Not even a mention of the spread gun from contra or the mega buster jesus u people are slipping.

Nice to see the Lancer in there.

Definition of Badass: Gun with a Chainsaw attached to it.

No glaive from Dark Sector? Look I understand people love for nostalgia, but some of those weapons have been surpassed in new games. Yes the BFG was badass for it's time, but there are better weapons that could have filled that spot. The same goes for the Rail gun, I loved that weapon, but it's pretty pedestrian by todays standards.

Then there's weapons that just don't get old: LandShark gun where art thou?
