At the urging of the Soul of the Forum himself, this thread has been created as the bastard child of the Ultimate Badass List and the Weapon Design thread. In this thread exists an archive of the most fear-inducing, gut-wrenching, bad-assed weapons of all time. From the eloquently named BFG to even the Death Star superlazer, these weapons themselves have other worldly qualities. The List: - The BFG 9000 (Doom) - It stands for Big F***in' Gun; 'nuff said
- Thermal Detonators (Star Wars) - Banned in 39 systems.
- Disruptors (Star Wars) - When shot by this you cease to exist. No ashes. No mess. Nothing. You are BALETED!
- Darth Vader's lightsaber (Star Wars... again) - Like the man himself, sleek and deadly
- Seige Cannon (Homeworld: C) - When you absolutely have to destroy every ship in the galaxy, accept no substitues.
- ICBM (America - F YEAH!) - Breaking the law (of conservation of matter that is) with a bang.
- The Gravitational Beam Emitter (Blame!) - Shoot a hole through the solar system.
- The Gravity Gun (HL2) - Make physics your bitch.
- Lancer (GoW) - An assault rifle with a chainsaw for a bayonet. A chainsaw.
- Cerebral Bore (Phantasm) - Them thar brain-suckin' spheres.
- Particle Accelerator (Turok) - Recreate the aftermath of Sodom and GamorAAAAHHHHH.
- Angel Arm (Trigun) - Harness flower power. Photosynthesis was never so badass.
- Metal Gear??!! (Guess) - Nuclear walking death-tank. Many iterations, each with their own merit.
- Death Star Superlaser (War in the Stars) - That's no moon, that's Coyote's face looming large.
- Farsight (Perfect Dark) - Leaning more to the ass side in badass, it fulfills its name quite nicely.
- Chronoscepter (Turok) - Tear a hole in space-time and erase every iteration of your target from reality.

I suggest the common nuke. Just because it actually exists and it has already claimed thousands of lives.

Damn, another old thread. Well, we should continue this, aside from adding the Gravity Gun, how about you guys consider the Lancer from Gears of War? C'mon it's an assault rifle with a chainsaw for a beyonet. A chainsaw.

Might as well update the thread.
I say we also continue our "ultimate weapon" project.

I'd like to say something from Trigun, but there are so many badass weapons, I can't decide.

I'd like to say something from Trigun, but there are so many badass weapons, I can't decide. Angel arm is still the best. Then again, there are more imaginative ones. A whole lot more. Man, come to think of it, the badass guns of that series should be a separate list. But angel arm will be added anyway. |

THE TURBINE DIVINITY "Behold gentlemen, the perfect synthesis of timeless spiritual power, and modern Technology..." So anyway, I've been in an old-school anime mood lately, and I recently picked up this four-episode series called Doomed Megalopolis (it kicks ass). Anyway, in this one episode, these guys are building an underground subway system, but are having trouble tunneling, and keep getting attacked by demons. Naturally, they call upon the weapon that is a solution to BOTH problems... THE TURBINE DIVINITY. A mechanical Buddha statue that is equipped with giant-ass drills, and demon-zapping weaponry, THE TURBINE DIVINITY is surely a Legendary Weapon of Badassitude.  Unfortunately, it's screen time isn't too long, but it does self-destruct to blow up the heart of a pissed-off subterrannean dragon, so that's pretty cool. |
