(sorry about the double post) Aparrently, the wierd word was BOF, at least, it accepted the post, so i presume it was. @Unoriginal - I prefer the quote after that which goes "it would only be more awesome if it had TITS and was ON FIRE" or "has made more money than a triple C***ted hooker the day the troops came home" (on the Nintendo Wii), OR "like the exasperrated chinese zoo keeper said to the last male panda in the world - FUCK THAT" lol - this ReCaptcha is "hedjaz 4,706,079,240" - wtf?

i thought most of R&C's arsenal would be there... Oh, and In up your arsenal, you can get the lava gun and upgrade it to the liquid nitrogen gun, which is equally satisfying. :D oh dear, my ReCaptcha looks like someone has sneezed whilst drawing a manga eye....

To quote Yahtzee Croshaw (and yes I know I'm not the first one) "Any complain you have against Painkiller is immediately canceled out by the fact that the game has a gun that shoot's SHURYKEN'S AND LIGHTNING. Yahtzee so great. And so are you, Paul Ryan. Great article.

How about the Persuadetron in Syndicate. Perfect when you need to shoot someone with mind-dominating future-rays. The Mesmetron in Fallout 3 was a poor imitator.

The first non-bullet firing gun that came to mind for me was the Moonraker laser from Goldeneye. That thing was one bad mother f------! Unlimited ammo, plus no reloading, equals bad a$$ery!

Good article. This site always keeps me laughing. I thought for sure that the gun from Oddworld Stranger's Wrath, which shoots little mammels and insects, would make it in the article. But then I remembered that it was technically a crossbow and not a gun. Oh well.

you should have put Ryu. Use him as a gun to shoot fireballs. i'm very aware that makes no sense

Umm, to point out, that's not the hammer of dawn. That's the mortar from GOW2.

I STILL don't understand how sometthing can be frozen and remain floating in midair. Also what about Opposing Force's Spore Launcher and Half Life 2's Pheropod? I found them cooler than the Gravity Gun.

Only the lava gun from all of the Ratchet and Clank games? The rift inducer is a cooler and earlier version of MM9's, and how much cooler can you get than turning baddies into sheep?
