they all make a hell of a boom number 10
quantum Deconstructor destroy all humans
series it has a blast wave that destroys
everything it turns out that if hostile
aliens ever decide to take a crack at
conquering earth getting probed would
probably be the least of our worries if
they’re armed with something as
destructive as this while piloting his
saucer crypto can unleash what basically
equates to a giant thermonuclear cloud
where everything from the environment to
the local population gets instantly
incinerated especially if you take the
time to fully upgrade it never has the
game title felt so real then when you
unleash this alien super weapon onto the
inferior human masses below
number nine hyper beam Super Metroid may
have only been used briefly but it can’t
be denied just how memorable this weapon
was during her final confrontation with
the gruesome Mother Brain our favorite
interstellar bounty hunter finds herself
badly wounded
and on the brink of defeat that is until
help comes from the most unlikely of
places samus’s metroid hatchling
sacrifices itself to save its adoptive
mother from mother brain’s wrath but not
before granting her a multicolored beam
capable of planting the beast to pieces
needless to say at the revenge that
followed was both Swift and satisfying
number eight hammer of dawn Gears of War
series as Marcus Fenix and company have
often discovered when it comes to bigger
enemies you’re going to need a bigger
gun and what’s bigger than a series of
orbital satellite-based lasers right
during the early days of the locust war
it was frequently exploited to turn the
tide of battle and as a result killed
billions of humans in the process
regardless the weapon is still used
against the likes of the locust and
lambent with Marquez often taking the
helm in order to wipe out threats such
as the lambent broom AK or the tempest
number seven spread gun contra series
[Music]
an alien threat made up of some of the
most gigantic and difficult bosses in
all of video games only two guys left to
save the world
well not a problem as long as they’re
armed with this mean machine ideal for
when you’re wanting to pepper outrageous
enemies with gunfire the spread gun
might not be as fast as something like
the machine gun but it does have the
handy function of being able to shoot in
five different directions at once
something you’ll undoubtedly need when
face-to-face with the likes of the red
Falcon number six
cerebral bore to rock series for a game
that contains alternate worlds alien
overlords and dinosaurs you’re gonna
need a weapon that’s up to the task
we’d like to introduce you to the tool
that allows you to fire projectiles that
grill into and eventually explode the
skills of any target they latch on to
gruesome yeah
effective absolutely thanks to its
targeting mechanic it will automatically
highlight approaching enemies basically
reducing any chance of any unwanted
ambushes efficient and brutal when it
comes to furthering the extinction of
its Jurassic prey what more could Rock
ask for
number five dark energy gravity on
half-life 2 technically identified as
the zero-point energy field manipulator
this little beauty has helped gordon
freeman out of more hazardous situations
than can be counted able to clear out
obstacles and lift heavy objects it’s
become one of gaming’s most iconic
pieces of equipment and served as a
major influence for many other sci-fi
based video games down the line of
course by itself there’s little it can
do against enemies that is until it’s
imbued with the energy from a
conversation feel now supercharged with
dark energy the gravity gun does not
only repel objects but also repels the
life right out of any unfortunate SAP
that’s caught in it number four
experimental nerve fallout series
if you thought that the fat man was the
mini nuke launcher of choice then we
would like to introduce you to the most
devastating weapon in the entire capital
wasteland how can it improve upon
catapulting miniature nuclear bombs at
groups of raiders well how about
modifying it so that it acts like US
nuclear shotgun capable of letting loose
eight nukes at once all in all before it
breaks from overuse you’re going to get
around 500 mini nukes worth of
ammunition from a single weapon war
might never change but the weapons
definitely do number 3 Pandora Devil May
Cry 4 it wasn’t kidding I can all you
can eat buffet Dante is a man who knows
a thing or two about hellish weapons
what with making a living out of slaying
demons and all out of his arsenal
nothing is quite as ridiculous ly
awesome as the slickest interpretation
of Pandora’s box of gaming it is said to
have 666 different forms all of which
can cause an obscene amount of damage
and even though Dante only has access to
about seven of them they are still
impressively calamitous these include
but are not limited to transforming into
a laser cannon a Gatling gun a giant
shuriken and even a mobile missile
battery damn
number two RINO Ratchet and Clank series
there it is
come on let’s catch a ride admit it as
soon as it became available you were
saving as many bolts as possible in
order to afford the galaxy’s most
destructive rocket launcher abbreviated
from the appropriately titled rip yeah
new one this weapon has become a staple
of the series whose ability to demolish
any enemy with a few shots was truly
worth the price tag
much like the franchise it has since
evolved to the point where its latest
incarnation was so powerful that it even
plays out the 1812 overture as you lay
waste to everything in sight
before we reveal our number one pick
here a few honorable mentions
number one BFG 9000 doom series they’ve
skin gun that’s pretty much all he needs
to know
while it’s gone through many changes
over the years including his most recent
reimagining in the highly successful
2016 remake to BFG is well known for
being the ultimate weapon when it comes
to slaying the denizens of hell
able to unleash giant balls of green
plasma the greatest weapon in the doom
guy’s arsenal is also well known for
being an instant kill 480 demon unlucky
enough to wander into its crosshairs or
heck even beside them something so
deadly that even hell is afraid of it
can sit anywhere but the top spot do you
