What specific weapon from ANY video game is your all time favorite? I don't mean generalized terms (swords, guns, etc...).

My personal favorite of all time is the Spread Gun from the original Contra (and I think current First Person Shooters need one).

Rainbow Sword - Chrono Trigger

Not only did it look spiffy, but it was powerful and had a 70% critical hit rate.

I want one of those in a DnD game.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

Chronoscepter from the original Turok.

Never since have I seen such a bad ass weapon effect in an FPS, though the "black-hole-launching-limb" in Unreal 2 came very, very close.

The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting.

Quake 3's was cooler, because it was easier on your computer, and you could change its color, and it hummed, and it had a faster refire rate, and you can zoom in Quake 3.

(1) The Quake2 one was better as a weapon. Better damage.

(2) I'd rather not see the weapon anyway so what does the color matter?

(3) You could zoom in Quake2, it just wasn't something that was a default action. It cut down on the moron factor that way.

They do the same damage (100 to health, if you have armor, the armor takes 2/3 of the damage, so if you had 100 armor, you'd have 33 armor and 66 health after being hit) and I meant you can change the color of the rail trail. On some servers in Quake 2, changing FOV was also disabled, so...
