Oh and the white rectangle from Pong.

[Sorrior]

Heh no one mentioned the Rip You a New One weapon series? Oh it's better known as it's abreviation of R.Y.N.O.


Definitely an iconic name if not image.

Oh and to all Legend of Kain fans that game was actually a byproduct of an attemp to make a new Chakan the Foreverman game. Then they realized most people wouldn't enjoy a game that brutally difficult and as such we got the Legacy of Kain series.

Master Sword + Hylian Shield.

Master Sword + Hylian Shield.

Gotta agree with this. You can show just about anybody a picture of those and they'll know where it's from.


Forgot to add Masamune. It's not so much the image as it is the name, but anyone that's played a JRPG will know that name. Doesn't hurt it's borrowed from real-world folklore.

[Verdugo]

Gun that dethroned BFG in awesome.

[Sharde]

i add those:

the vorpal blade (alice 1+2)


and pretty much every other weapon from the games (eyestaff of the jabberwocky!)


the spectral reaver (legacy of kain series)


allready posted but now with pictures. i liked it the best in soul reaver 2 with all the enchantments.

[Ferocity]

Why noone mentioned Masamune and Murasame, recurring weapons in Square games, yet? Oh and Excalibur, Ragnarok. Save the Queen!

Whatchu talkin' bout, Willis?

Completely forgot about Ragnarok, though!

[Cyclone Jack]

No Chaoseater?

[Verdugo]

No Chaoseater?

Darksiders is pretty underrated so I guess people just dont even remember.

[Sorrior]

No Chaoseater?

I am sorry to say i forgot about it...

[BoomChickn]

Boom! Explosive Frisbee Launcher!

(Spinfusor from the tribes games, if anyone doesn't know)

WOLOLO!

Hey, you can't do th- HEY WAIT A MIN- yeah that seems like a pretty legit weapon to me.

[Adam Jensen]

Clearly, Skyrim's Army of Children is the most iconic weapon ever. Even motherfucking dragons don't stand a chance against that.
PSG1 from MGS (Sniper Wolf, though one was available to players), even REX (also MGS, the walking tank), or Ocelot's revolver (again, MGS).

I've also got to give the priests from Age of Empires an honorary mention as most iconic weapon. Bitches be converting your units with just a simple...
WOLOLO!

Red goes in, blue comes out, you can't explain that (but you can explain to your enemies how and why blues just wiped out reds)!

Bullshit. One Priest can't possibly convert an entire-



Actually, that's quite effective.

Weren't priests basically the only thing that could do anything about Teutonic Knights? I seem to remember those guys being just comically overpowered.

[Groot]

Crowbar from any HL game.

[Taros]

For me personally it was the Dark Slayer and Moonlight Sword from King's Field.
Also the Chaos Breaker from Shining Force.
