8 Utterly PATHETIC Video Game Weapons (We Can't Stop Using)

2. Klobb - GoldenEye 007

By any sensible metric, the Klobb is the consensus worst weapon in N64 classic GoldenEye 007.

The submachine gun has a low rate of fire and shambolic accuracy level, making it pretty much the worst weapon for most engagements with CPU and flesh-and-blood players alike.

It has an infamous enough rep among even the game’s own developers that GoldenEye director Martin Hollis actually called it a “noisy water pistol.”

But what makes such a fundamental dud of a gun impossible to resist is the dual-wield ability in the single-player campaign, allowing you to put a Klobb in each hand and spray-and-pray at an impending fleet of blocky goons.

Between this, the weapon’s distinct look, unique sound, and sheer clunkiness, it has a lot of charm going for it that even some of the game’s better guns don’t. You’d never want to use it in a desperation scenario, but in this case personality certainly goes a long way.

It’ll make you feel like a badass for a few scattered seconds as you shout “It’s Klobberin’ time!” at a mate during couch co-op, until you realise they’re rocking a Golden Gun or, well, literally any other weapon in the game.
