Coolest weapons in games

[Louie_86]

Buster Sword
Daedric weapons
Golden Gun in Goldeneye
The Ryno from R&C
Plasma cutter from DS
Blades of Chaos and Leviathan Axe
Energy Sword
Gravity Gun
Moonlight Greatsword in every Fromsoft game, but most notably in Elden Ring
The BFG
Blue turtle shell

Lowkey some very weirdly designed FF weapons look quite nice


As for the why, I dunno, depends on the weapon, some are just very destructive that its cool to use them, some because they try (and succeed) in looking edgy and badass and others because they have a very unique style/aesthetic that makes them stand out.
