The time manipulator could be both a weapon and a tool, like a knife. When used for stuff like cutting food, it's a tool, but when you're brutally murdering the entire neighbourhood with it, it's a weapon. The thing is, you could use the exact same knife to do both, meaning it is both a tool and a weapon, so imo the same can be said about the time manipulator
What, no love for the Berserk Dart from Assassin's Creed? Turning enemy guards into frothing, screaming maniacs never gets old. And neither will your enemies, on account of them being dead shortly afterwards.
Mmm, I loved using the poison dart in AC: Origins. Hit an enemy with one of those and they stumble towards a group. Soon the whole group is infected, sometimes even the higher ups would become poisoned, and boom a whole slew of stealth kills.

The gluon gun would actually be even worse than depicted. Without the strong nuclear force holding someone's atoms together, they would violently disassociate in a manner akin to a nuke going off, and likely kill Gordon in the process due to radiation. Either that, or they'd look like they were Snapped. Not a gory explosion either way
The ebony blade is Absolute evil. To charge it you have to betray and slay those that like and/or follow you. Mittens no mates they'll chant as you slice them down.

"cerebral bore" sounds like the name of a death metal band. Because it is, there's actually a brutal death metal band called Cerebral Bore, after the weapon.
@ In Shelly’s book the monster calls Dr. Frankenstein father and at one point explicitly says he identifies as a Frankenstein. Therefore the argument can easily be made that monster is ‘a Frankenstein’ and thus it is accurate to call him Frankenstein. *Head explodes*
I love how Andy "subtly" tells people to stop reminding him that Frankenstein is the name of the scientist and not the Monster. He must be very annoyed :P
@@curtismcpsycho8212 I seem to remember him calling Frakenstein his father too. The premise of the book is that it's Frankenstein's rejection of his creation that leads the monster to kill those close to his creator. Prior to that, he saw him as his creator who gave him life.
The drill weapon in Bulletstorm is pretty nasty but is basically a newer version of the Cerebral Bore. The Flailgun in the same game was great though. Fires two grenades linked by a chain that wraps round your targets neck then explodes. I pretty much kept one of those on me the whole game. Which needs a sequel dammit!

My new party fact about Frankenstein is that its one of the first examples of 'found footage' storytelling. If journal entries could be considered found footage. Mary Shelly loved storytelling this way and Bram Stoker followed suite with Dracula as well. So Shelley and Stoker beat out Blair Witch by almost a century.
Not necessarily. Granted, a lot of objectives require you to trespass into restricted areas, but you'd think the workers would at least try asking you to leave first, instead of immediately trying to viciously gun you down. Then there's the lady at the post office; who blames the bomb explosion on the intended victim, instead of phoning the Police so that the real bomber could possibly be found and brought to justice.
Fallout has a number of 'dubious' weapons, such as energy weapons that turn you to ash or goop, but remember the K9000/FIDO? A dog had to give its life so its brain can help you...aim?
What about the Mesmetron, it’s super unpredictable on what happens to the target. Notably, their heads explode, they become violent, or both, and those are just the negative side effects.
the grav gun from halflife 2 is pretty damn dangerous especially when its overcharged. You basically smash people's spines and then use their limp bodies as projectiles.
My vote goes to the Insect Swarm plasmid from bioshock. That way you can imagine every one you used it on screaming like Nicholas Cage in Wicker Man. Plus, any enemies engaging the swarm count as "unaware" so then while they're dealing with FREAKING BEES you can smack them with a wrench. It is evil because, well, you're putting bees at risk despite their critical role in sustaining our ecosystem, and also, who the hell kills someone with BEES?

YAY! Thank you for mentioning Armed and Dangerous! One of my favorite games of all time. Besides the Land Shark Gun, my favorite thing to do is attach a Sticky Bomb to a sheep and watch it walk into a group of enemies a distance away.
I would ask you to consider all the weapons in Call of Duty zombies mode, in particular the wave gun from moon where the zombies slowly cook before flying in the air and exploding from the radiation.
I think the spring razor from Dishonored is worth a shout-out. Not only does it slice villains into chunks, but civilians can also wander into them and well... make you look like the bad guy.
The latter games in the Command and Conquer: Red Alert series gave the Allies (the good guys) Chrono-guns. Based of time-manipulation technology, soldiers equipped with these devices would literally erase enemies from existence. They weren't dead, they never were.
I can't believe nobody is talking about Rage Wars when Turok comes up.. I would personally put the Chest Burster, or Inflator on here. Sure the Bore is messy, but really you are just going to feel a short sharp pain upon entry and painlessly spasm out till it ends.
the most lethal weapon in Doom 2016 is the pistol. If you spam the fire button and the melee button you're pretty much unstoppable and it always ends in a glory kill. :l
MGS4 had bullets you could purchase in subsequent playthroughs that could alter the mood of your enemies. There are four types; Yellow for laughter, green for fear, red for anger, and blue for sadness. Depending on what you hit someone with, they'll either be overtaken by an inexplicable (to them and their comrades) urge to laugh maniacally, or be filled with such rage that they disregard basic combat methods like cover and charge at their enemies like an action film hero. Interestingly enough, at least two of the ammo types will not count if they cause an enemy to die, as it is considered to not be Snake's fault if the enemy perishes while under the effects of those certain ammos.
Actually, the Geneva Convention DOES apply to video games! Just not the ones on weaponry, somehow. Only the rules on using the Red Cross that the actual Red Cross uses, because sure, a big treaty that stops the use of destructive weaponry can also be used as a trademark for a disaster assistance group. Sure.
Frankenstein was the creator of the monster, but he is also the monster himself too. For example, the monster he created didn't use entirely human parts. It said in the book that he had gotten some of the parts from slaughterhouses. Also, if Dr. Frankenstein would have actually stayed with the monster and taught it well then it would have at least acted a little human, but instead he ran away I'm fear because (and I quote) "It looked so ugly." This then led Frankenstein's monster to go kill a couple people and run away.
Actually the Geneva convention does apply to video games. Stardew Valley was sued because of the use of the red cross, which violates the Geneva convention.
No. The Red Cross is a registered trademark. Only the Red Cross can use it. It's on the same level as using McDonald's logo. Nothing to do with the Geneva Convention.
I am quite surprised the "Injector" from Time Splitters: Future Perfect isn't on this list. Sure in the campaign Cortez uses it against Freaks but in the multiplayer you are literally using to explode your enemies in cloud of mist and gibs.
That singularity time machine tool, reminds me of a cetrain Halo Reach Quote. "I once met a soldier who told me he thought his weapon was a time machine, he wasn't killing the enemy, just moving them forward to a time where they're no longer alive." -Jun
Lore Wise I'd agree, but gore wise not really much when fired against alien beings, killer time travelling robots, reject cthulhu shadow creatures, and zombies of light.
What nobody really ever mention is that when activating the cerebral bore the enemy recognizes the weapon and out of fear begins to flee running in random patterns and squealing like a terrified piglet the best part!

I would ask you to consider all the weapons in Call of Duty zombies mode, in particular the wave gun from moon where the zombies slowly cook before flying in the air and exploding from the radiation.
I think the spring razor from Dishonored is worth a shout-out. Not only does it slice villains into chunks, but civilians can also wander into them and well... make you look like the bad guy.
Andy is so salty about the Frankenstein thing, it's hilarious. XD
"A Mike wrapped in steak."
Me: Why, the sound quality would be awf- ooohhh I get it!
The Geneva convention doesn’t apply to video games? Nobody tell Brian David Gilbert
I think you mean The Lewd Improvisationman
"Jimmy can't drive, he only two year old!"
the rat summoning weapon from a plague tale: innocence. eaten alive by rats
Similarly featured in Dishonored.
You know Mike was involved in writing a list when Turok appears on the list 😂
The latter games in the Command and Conquer: Red Alert series gave the Allies (the good guys) Chrono-guns. Based of time-manipulation technology, soldiers equipped with these devices would literally erase enemies from existence. They weren't dead, they never were.
13:50 sounds eerily familiar after Luke's run as a DM with the Oxventurers!
I’m honestly surprised only two of these weapons were in Enter The Gungeon.
I was looking for an Enter the Gungeon comment. Thank you.
István Lippai yeah lol. I was like "huh. So thats the inspiration for these guns. The more you know i guess"
I only know of the thing from turok which other weapon was in Gungeon
@@anthonybonefede3231 The shark gun. It's the Compressed Air Tank in Gungeon.
15:43 I mean Andy technically DID warn us... OH my EYES!!!!
The second I saw the title I thought “cerebral bore!!” Sure enough the first on the list
Same. Holy crud that thing is brutal. Imagine that in a modern game.
I can't believe nobody is talking about Rage Wars when Turok comes up.. I would personally put the Chest Burster, or Inflator on here.
Sure the Bore is messy, but really you are just going to feel a short sharp pain upon entry and painlessly spasm out till it ends.
Skyrim : Using Mayhem in a crowded place, hiding and watching them fight, pacify the survivor. Your own personnal battle royale.
Make "Mankini is the Real Monster" your next t-shirt
"They're waiting for you, Gordon, in the _test chamberrrrr_ "
Who's reSPONsible for this mess?
Wow, Armed and Dangerous AND Singularity in the same list! 2 of my favourite-ist under rated games of all time!!! :D
the most lethal weapon in Doom 2016 is the pistol. If you spam the fire button and the melee button you're pretty much unstoppable and it always ends in a glory kill. :l
There's a similar shark gun in Saints Row 3. It works by covering your enemies in blood and bait to try and summon the infamous Steelport sewer shark.
Lol "who you gonna call? Your loved ones!..... There's been a terrible accident" 😂😂😂😂
How about the spore launcher from Half Life: Opposing force? I mean your literally using a baby shock trooper as a weapon.
Spawn Hybrid the only reason i use it HAS UNLIMITED AMMO
Ike Illedaguy That’s the shock roach, not the spore launcher. The spore launcher is green thing that shoots toxic globs of....something.
MGS4 had bullets you could purchase in subsequent playthroughs that could alter the mood of your enemies. There are four types; Yellow for laughter, green for fear, red for anger, and blue for sadness. Depending on what you hit someone with, they'll either be overtaken by an inexplicable (to them and their comrades) urge to laugh maniacally, or be filled with such rage that they disregard basic combat methods like cover and charge at their enemies like an action film hero.
Interestingly enough, at least two of the ammo types will not count if they cause an enemy to die, as it is considered to not be Snake's fault if the enemy perishes while under the effects of those certain ammos.
Actually, the Geneva Convention DOES apply to video games! Just not the ones on weaponry, somehow.
Only the rules on using the Red Cross that the actual Red Cross uses, because sure, a big treaty that stops the use of destructive weaponry can also be used as a trademark for a disaster assistance group. Sure.
@ It should have had a disclaimer that read "The theme song is the only good part of this movie...a-ha are awesome"
Frankenstein was the creator of the monster, but he is also the monster himself too. For example, the monster he created didn't use entirely human parts. It said in the book that he had gotten some of the parts from slaughterhouses. Also, if Dr. Frankenstein would have actually stayed with the monster and taught it well then it would have at least acted a little human, but instead he ran away I'm fear because (and I quote) "It looked so ugly." This then led Frankenstein's monster to go kill a couple people and run away.
Psychosis gun set to *FULL MIKE!*
Now to create my perfect loyal army with which to take over the world! Jane would be proud. *>:D*
But they explode after a time. Probably turns the blood into nitroglycerine or something.
Actually the Geneva convention does apply to video games. Stardew Valley was sued because of the use of the red cross, which violates the Geneva convention.
No. The Red Cross is a registered trademark. Only the Red Cross can use it. It's on the same level as using McDonald's logo. Nothing to do with the Geneva Convention.
I’ve never heard of Armed and Dangerous, but it looks just absolutely amazing.
It was. I miss that game, it was HILARIOUS!
I am quite surprised the "Injector" from Time Splitters: Future Perfect isn't on this list. Sure in the campaign Cortez uses it against Freaks but in the multiplayer you are literally using to explode your enemies in cloud of mist and gibs.
"Don't play Postal 2."
Counterpoint: ABSOLUTELY play Postal 2.
There was unnecessary hate on P2 in this video. P2 is an amazing game, absolutely play it.
KaBar41 yeah that’s what I was thinking, they obviously don’t get postal 2.
Turok 2: exists
me: is this Jurassic Park?
i mean, seriously, Turok 2 is just Jurassic Park from the future
The cerebral bore reminds me of the death spheres from the Phantasm movies
That singularity time machine tool, reminds me of a cetrain Halo Reach Quote.
"I once met a soldier who told me he thought his weapon was a time machine, he wasn't killing the enemy, just moving them forward to a time where they're no longer alive." -Jun
What about white phosphorus from Moder Warfare (2019)? It's LITERALLY considered a war crime if you use it!
"like they chose the wrong grail"
/seeks out asthma inhaler due to SUDDEN WHEEZINGLY STRONG LAUGHTER
Nobody:

Be aware of spoilers for a 10 year old game
The audio in 7:15 = whenever you play with random players on a team in a multiplayer shooter and they talk over the microphone
What about the Thorn from Destiny? You literally remake a weapon that the most imfamous guardian killer used.
Lore Wise I'd agree, but gore wise not really much when fired against alien beings, killer time travelling robots, reject cthulhu shadow creatures, and zombies of light.
Just popped up in my feed and I knew that cerebral bore was going to be on there! Loved that game!...
That moment when you realize you are the Cerebral Bore... By the Gods what have I become, why must I be the true monster?!
Yep
What nobody really ever mention is that when activating the cerebral bore the enemy recognizes the weapon and out of fear begins to flee running in random patterns and squealing like a terrified piglet the best part!
The yellow snowballs from South Park N64. If one hit me I would want to die
0:03 Might I suggest coffee talk?
