NeoNachtwaechter,

Genius needs simplicity. But many of these suggestions here lack in that respect.

I like the Jedi Killer.

stoy,

The meme?

NeoNachtwaechter,

A meme was made out of it, yes.

ryathal,

The coolest design is the gun-chucks from RWBY completely impractical, but awesome at the same time.

CADmonkey,

Two of my favorites are from books and don’t have pictures: the nanotech weapon given to grunts in “Old Man’s War” and the Soft Weapon from Niven’s short story titled, appropriately enough, “The Soft Weapon”. There was an animated Star Trek episode based on The Soft Weapon, but I can’t remember what I looked like, I just remember the producers weren’t brave enough to animate an alien with two heads and three legs.

Other than those, I really liked the silly guns in Ratchet and Clank, epecially the Vacuum Cannon.

I’m noticing a distinct lack of BFG

stoy,

The BFG exists in several versions:

The original from Doom 1993 is just a rectantular box with a weird handle, the sides of the box is covered with techno pixelart, but nothing striking.

The Doom 64 version is very similar to the 1993 version.

The BFG in Doom 3 has a profile of a weird space potato: doom.fandom.com/wiki/BFG9000/Doom_3?file=BFG9000-…

The ingame model is more like a rectantular box, but with an updated case: doom.fandom.com/wiki/BFG9000/Doom_3?file=Bfg3

In Doom 2016 is has a better styling, with an actual grip, it now actually looks like a gun!

In Doom Eternal it looks great, if a bit generic, but not bad.

The BFG does exist in Quake II and Quake 3 Arena, but the design is just terrible.

So while I like your enthusiasm, I don’t share your oppinion on the design of the BFG series.

Thorman1,

The zero G room gun from enders game looks pretty sick. I wasn’t that much of a fan of the movie compared to the books but the gun design was pretty good. Also does star lords gun from marvel count? That’s a pretty sick one too.
