8 Video Game Weapons That Are Genuinely HORRIBLE

If we're being truly honest, there's something so much more innately horrible about weapons you have to use up close and personal. Now ending life in any sense is absolutely abysmal, but pulling a trigger from a country mile away feels far more removed than sticking a blade between someone's ribs and watching the life fade from their eyes.

So now take that concept and apply the concept of being showered in your opponents, blood, teeth, and whatever organs get in the way of your two-metre-long chainsword.

The humble chainsword, tin opener of the Imperium of Man, and one of the most iconic weapons in all of Warhammer 40K. It's an item you'll get well accustomed to using in Warhammer: Space Marine and when you actually look at what you're doing after the blood rage has subsided, it's utterly horrifying.

You've just carved through Orks, heretics, and Daemon alike with this weapon, severing flesh from bone and heads from torsos and ye golden god is it pretty rank. Plus I imagine the clean-up afterward is just absolutely grim.
