10 Joke Video Game Weapons (That Are Secretly INCREDIBLY Powerful)
1. Sexy Beam - Silent Hill 3
There are many things players might expect from the Silent Hill universe – primarily sadistic violence, grotesque monsters, and mind-bending mysteries – yet erotic extermination from a teenager probably isn’t one of them.
Enter Silent Hill 3’s Sexy Beam, which is available only if main hero Heather Mason has both the Transform Costume wand and the Heather Beam.
Basically, Heather needs to use the wand to become her alter-ego, Princess Heart (whose Sailor Moon-esque attire and posing are uncomfortably skimpy for someone her age). If the Heather Beam is equipped as well, it’ll turn into the more savage Sexy Beam, which combines the Heather Beam’s projectiles and target-acquiring lasers into a single high-powered strike (complete with flickering white hearts).
She can also shoot rays from her glowing eyes in what feels like an unsettling allusion to Janosz’s hallway scene in Ghostbusters II.
Additionally, unlike the Heather Beam, the Sexy Beam doesn’t even drain Heather’s stamina so she’s consistently at the height of formidableness. This makes it a scarily salicious force to be reckoned with.
