Top 10 Most Pain-Inducing Weapons in Video Games

Oh, the wonderful world of violence! Violence is a part peoples daily lives through direct and indirect means: news, reality tv, video games, movies, etc. Let's be honest, without violence life would be kind of boring. Think about it, would you rather play in a boring utopia or a cool, dystopic future like Mirror's Edge? Violence is best served on an entertainment platter, in the form of video games. Because in video games, you are the knife wielder, the zombie slayer, the gun slinger. 99% of the time, you get to play the hero or heroine destined to save the day, conquer the enemy, or simply reign supreme.

Each game has their unique, nifty weapons which act as an extension to the violence people thirstily crave! So bring the violence by choosing your weapons wisely. PS3 Informer has made things easier for you, by choosing their own Top 10 Most Pain-Inducing Weapons of Choice in video games.

turok 2 cerebral bore

[LinuxGuru]

I agree

[GVON]

any list without that in it is a poor list

[mfwahwah]

Before I read this, I was like "this better have cerebral bore."

This list lost all credibility by not having it.

[The Lazy One]

any weapon in condemned/2.

[ReeBlock]

I was gonna say that, but you beat me to it.

[DeadlyFire]

No Lightsaber?

[Megatron08]

Not sure a lightsaber be are that painful. It be about like being cut by a laser I'd think you could cut off an arm or something and sure it hurt but you wont have the massive amount of blood pouring out of you leading you to a slow and painful death like you would with a normal sword.

However the only 2 weapons I agree with on there are Scorpion's Spear and the Soulreaver

[Final_Rpg]

Since we're speaking of hybrid weapons, why not consider the Gunblade from ff8. It's like the opposite of a lancer!! Plus renzokuken showcases the ability of such a fusion.

[Horny]

there are so many Ratchet and Clank weapons that could have been on this list. Matter of fact the game needs its own list.

[EastCoastSB]

Some blogger better make this happen.

[InMyOpinion]

Any of the bigger bomb drops in Mercenaries 2.

Or any of these...

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Those are cool deaths...

I just think there should be more screaming.

[IWentBrokeForGaming]

blades more viceral than Scorpions Spear, and anything near the uglyness of Baraka where almost all his moves require close encounters?... definaley more brutal!!! Impale Fatality from MK2 anyone?... but who don't honestly love Scorp too?... sorry I love MK

[Bathyj]

What about the sickle in Manhunt? I guess getting cut from nuts to arse doesn't hurt as much as I thought it would.

Machette? 3 hacks to get through the neck?

Piano wire?

Glass?

Shotty/Snipers Rifle?

I could go on.

[honorable1]

I was going to suggest the Cerebral bore as well. Well now to submit another idea, hmmm . . . What about when you do the special executions in the punisher game? Using a sandblaster as a weapon, I mean wow. Or what about the spear gun in oh what's that game, the one that had the Halo 3 beta? Oh Crackdown yeah that's it.

Anything else I can think of, the johnny cage nut punch?
What about the thwomp blocks in Mario 3?
Getting stuck with a grenade in gears of war?
I get the feeling Ken or Ryu's spinning kicks would hurt a lot.
The minions in Overlord, when they swarm someone and start stabbing them repeatedly?
No I must contribute more! Help me out guys!

[TapiocaMilkTea]

haha, the last one is so lame......YOU!
How about the electric company, power outage is the worst when playing RPGs, instant party annihilation, hours of leveling down the drain.
