This is my boomstick.

List of all of my favorite tools of destruction from various video games.

Showing 1-10 of 96 items

Mario

1. Mario

All he has to do is jump on their heads, this guy may not be inanimate, but he's one hell of a tool of destruction!

Frostmourne

2. Frostmourne

Frostmourne is one of my favorite blades visually, I'm a sucker for swords with curves.

Zero-Point Energy Field Manipulator

3. Zero-Point Energy Field Manipulator

Ok, this is probably my favorite on the list. You can do damn near anything with this. Who wouldn't want to throw toilets at gas-masked heads??

Needler

4. Needler

Of all the advanced weapons I've come across in my life, this is probably the most sinister of all. Not only does it shoot large, razor sharp crystal right into you, but after your stuck like a pig, they detonate! To be honest, I'd rather just go out in pink mist then take a couple of needles and have a few holes.

Magnum

5. Magnum

Pretty much the best way to test out a game's arsenal is to take a look at the magnum. Some games, like Half Life 2, give you a weapon of supreme power and satisfaction. Others, like Killzone 2, give you what feels and sounds to be a pea shooter.

Lockheed AC-130

6. Lockheed AC-130

This one is pretty much self explanatory. See spot. See spot run. See spot BOOOOOM.

Steyr AUG

7. Steyr AUG

It's just funky looking. Nuff Said.

AA-12

8. AA-12

It's like an Uzi made sweet, fiery love to a shotgun! Can also shoot GRENADES. AT 120 RPM. Holy. Shit.

Proton Pack

9. Proton Pack

Ghosts are nasty. This fixes that. Plus, if you cross the streams, it becomes even more bad ass! Albeit a bit more deadly to all of life as we know it...

Gatling Gun

10. Gatling Gun

Generally speaking, this is a device of devastating and awesome power. In Just Cause 2 it NEVER RUNS OUT OF BULLETS. I'd say that makes it top five material.
