behold some of gaming’s most iconic
instruments of death welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks to the top ten most
recognizable videogame weapon before we
begin we publish new videos every day so
be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’ll be looking
at weapons that are well known amongst
gamers not necessarily for their
destructive force but by how synonymous
they are with their respective series
keep in mind we won’t be including
weapons that first appeared in films
before making the jump to video games so
don’t expect any lightsabers here
elegant withum so the more civilized a
number-10 Buster Sword Final Fantasy 7
at last
the promise has been made passed down to
him by his mentor and friend Zach the
former member of soldier Cloud Strife
used this massive cleaver to wipe out
the likes of Shinra and corporate and
even clash blades with the one wing an
angel scatter off
one of the pioneers when it came to
giant weapons wielded by JRPG pretty
boys the Buster Sword certainly doesn’t
need to compensate for anything when
armed with Limit Breaks such as the
finishing touch and the all-powerful
omni-flex
if the son of Genova fell to it then
chances are that can cut through pretty
much anything number 9
blade the Kaos God of War
while later installments in the games
would see Kratos inherit alternate
versions of the blades of Athena and
blades of Exile we have to give it to
the original set that were literally
forged in the fires of war both a gift
and a curse from the former God of War
Ares these change blades have assured
Kratos victory over God’s Titans and
practically every other creature in
Greek mythology it doesn’t matter if
it’s close quarters are from a distance
the vengeful Spartan will always find a
way to ensure that his signature weapons
hits their mark and then proceeded to
tear them to pieces of the most bloody
way possible just for good measure
number 8 fat man fallout series
considering everything in this series is
built around the results of nuclear war
is it any surprise that at one point we
could have a chance to get our hands on
a new Camaro except this one comes in a
very handy form of a rocket launcher
that had a full little mini nukes laying
waste to everything in his path
whether you’re the savior of the waste a
true lo wanderer or just loved to cause
chaos and destruction there’s no greater
feeling than lighting up the horizon
with your own personal nuclear holocaust
[Music]
number seven BFG 9000 doing series no
matter what you think f stands for
there’s no denying that when the forces
of Hell start pouring out this weapon is
what you want to have by your side when
taking on demonic hordes it’s had a few
modifications over the years but you’re
more or less guaranteed to unleash a
huge burst a green stuff as soon as you
pull the trigger they might have the
likes of Mecca demons and imps ready to
tear your head off
but when armed with this beast we’d
wager that the doom guy is the one with
the advantage
number six the master sort and Hylian
Shield The Legend of Zelda theory just
as the mantle if link is handed down so
too is the weapon known as the blade of
evil Bane along with the more than
durable Hylian Shield the Master Sword
is the iconic weapon of the green rogue
hero stated to do battle with the likes
of the dark beast known as Ganon no
matter the obstacles and enemies that
seem to throw themselves at link all
eventually lose against the weapon
originally created by a goddess blessed
by a princess and wielded by the likes
of a legend number five Lancer hears war
series how do you improve on a heavy
assault rifle
well you’ve added a built-in chainsaw
bayonet the the tool of choice for
Marcus Fenix and company in their
ongoing mission to annihilate the likes
of the locust swarm and of course lament
it was designed by Marcus’s father
during the early days of a war an ideal
weapon for every member of Delta Squad
it allows them to lay down a rapid fire
on encroaching enemies as well as turn
them into bloody chunks should they get
too close for comfort
it may not be flashy but it definitely
gets the job done number 4 crowbar
half-life series
so simple yet so effective while the
gravity gun could be considered far more
recognizable the fact remains that it’s
more of a tool to be used with the
moving of heavy object and overcoming
all kind of puzzle the crowbar on the
other hand is the last means of defense
for the likes of the silent scientist
Gordon Freeman named Levi breaking the
heads of any unfortunate zombies I guess
when the likes of the combine starts to
invade even a utilitarian piece of metal
is better than nothing
number three hidden blades Assassin’s
Creed series where did you find all
these from the earliest centuries all
the way to the present there is no
better weapon for a Master Assassin than
this settled the sinister device
allowing the likes of a higher Ezio
Edward and even Desmond Miles to
dispatch their enemies with painful
discretion a small blade that’s just
under the wrists able to unsheath in a
moment’s notice for those that value
self this is the ideal weapon of choice
that’s not to say it can’t be brutal
because we imagine multiple stabs to the
body would sting a bit
number two fire flower Super Mario
Brothers series as talented as Mario is
with all that jumping even the most
veteran of plumbers need a helping hand
every now and then and when going up
against the likes of Bowser and his army
of Koopas you can’t go wrong with a
well-timed fireball to the face
after picking up this particular plant
Mario doesn’t only gain a new outfit but
also the ability to shoot out flames at
enemy targets if you’re ever in the mood
to singe the shell off of Bowser
then we highly recommend this rather
spicy herb
before we reveal our number-one text
here if you want to mention number one
energy sort halo series
doubled to the type-1 energy sword may
be regarded as holy amongst most elite
warriors of the covenant but in our eyes
we just can’t get enough of it whether
it’s over the course of the franchise’s
narrative or splicing three rivals and
multiplayer a well time strike from this
blade could mean the difference between
victory and defeat
just like the drawback of becoming
useless after a set number of slashes we
can hardly wait for our own personal
Spartan to snag up another one and jump
back into the fray it’s not packing the
same firepower as a lot of these others
in halos arsenal but damn does it ever
look cool do you agree with our picks
