10 Best Multiplayer Weapons In Gaming History
2. Gnasher Shotgun (Gears Of War)
When your enemy can pop out of the ground at any time, you’ve got to be ready, using a weapon that can do plenty of damage in a quick burst. Shotguns are perfect for that, and therefore perfect against the type of enemies you’ll be fighting in Gears of War.
This next gun is everything a COG soldier needs and more. There is just something about old-looking shotguns that translate into reliable and hard-hitting. A lever-action shotgun that can turn your enemy into mulch with so much as a single shot, this is the Gnasher.
With the cover-based combat in Gears, aiming the Gnasher around a corner as someone is going past will turn them into a red splat on those chest-high walls. Unless they have a Gnasher too, in which case I hope you're quick to the draw.
The only downside to the Gnasher is that plenty of people use it, meaning you have to be very quick to land those shots.
Even then, because of the game’s host priority setting, sometimes you may lose an encounter just because you ran into the host. They'll see and shoot you quicker, begging the question of the REAL overpowered weapon here being server priority.
