A flamethrower from the Aliens franchise. Throws flame.
The rifle frequently used by the Colonial Marines in the Aliens franchise. Varies in appearance, but always consists of an automatic rifle, underslung grenade launcher, and red LED ammo counter.
A squad support machine gun from the Aliens franchise. The gun's primary, consistent feature is the ability to track targets and automatically adjust its aim towards them.
Machine guns, generally, are heavier weapons with a rapid rate of fire. To quote the Quake manual, they "eat ammo like popcorn."

A long, piercing weapon.
A length of exceptionally sharp metal with a handle, used for centuries as the go-to killing device for the human race. It's dead simple: you stick the pointy end in the thing you want to die. Or you could always slash them with the equally sharp sides. That works too.
A tree is a perennial woody plant. Trees are often used in games as a natural wall, providing a barrier as well as cover. Many games also use them to make their environments looks more natural and attractive.
A gun turret is weapon mount designed to protect the user or mechanisms of a weapon system. The weapon itself is not a turret, but rather the protective housing of the user or mechanisms of the weapon system.
These are usually turned by the player in most cases to stop steam seeping out of a pipe in-order to progress through the level.
