Nothing beats the Lightsaber.
The Minigun Jesse Ventura carried in Predator was BAD ***!
But, as a weapon, nothing beats the lightsaber.

The Darkvoid Device from the Deathstalker series. Instantaneously destroys a multitude of stars on a galactic scale. How can you beat that?

For somebody my age, I had way too much experience with Doom's BFG... but I always wanted the Cyber Demon's missile launcher....

Necron Gauss flayer:

Gauss Weaponry is used by the Necrons and are horrifying devices. They are magnetically based weapons that break down the target into its component molecules layer by layer and attract the molecules back to the gun at incredible speed. This creates a 'flaying' effect and can vaporise the most heavily armored warrior or blast a hole in a Land Raider. This means that even the most basic Necron Warrior has a chance to blast a hole through the heaviest armor

I have to concur with Don on this. Way and above anything else for sheer 'cool' factor is the Light Sabre.

Light saber all the way. Blaster are crude, clumsy weapons. Light sabers are symbols of a more...civilised era :D

Peace,

What? No Wave Motion Gun or powered armor (like in Heinlein's Starship Troopers)? Surely the Gawd Emperor would have thought to include the Wave Motion Gun!

Where the hills have eyes.,and it's HOT!
The wormhole weapons in Farscape.......though I really dig the lightsaber, I am partial to weapons of mass destruction......bwahaha, and all that.:lfao:

The Rail Gun from the movie "Eraser"

Hey, I did some of the last work at LANL on that! Really:look here


At least, the last work there that I know of ;) (Of course, this is not and probably will never be handheld, due to the power demand, but by 2015 or so, we could see it on ships..)


bwhaha....haha.. :lfao:
