Title: All Time Greatest FPS Weapon
Post by: Gixer on December 23, 2004, 04:00:41 AM: Debate came up at work today as to the best weapon ever in a FPS from any platform.

For me it's the Rail Gun from Quake 2 & 3 :D

From 007

RCP-90 was the ultimate gun, Although when playing with friends we usually never used it. It ends any Mexican Standoff. Same with Proxy Mines.

From Perfect Dark

The Alien Rail Gun, with the Xray scope.

That one was a bruiser, but you needed to be careful.

I used to love killing GayWPers with the scout...

Scout would kill in one shot to the head.

Course the GayWp would kill in one shot anywhere.

Hawker, So was the TV Guided Missile. But its basically worthless in Multiplayer unless you've gotta teamate who can protect you.

IMO that is the one of the best console FPS games ever created. And it was one of the deciding factors in why I bought a Gamecube.

Unfortunatley, I heard that the game was dropped. Hopefully someone will pick it up. But I doubt it.

Did you ever save your character in Challenge and Coop mode, I made it to Seven, before my Roomie moved out. Just the other day I was considering buying a 64 and PD.
