There was a top ten program on a while ago that did this...and they got it waaay better than that PoS site. The Rail Gun from Quake should be in there as should the BFG. And wtf is up with the chess piece in a top ten VIDEO games.

actually now that i think about it - the weapon that gave me the best laugh was the laser mine thing in Half Life 1

you put it on the wall and it put a beam across - and if you tripped the beam it blew up.

but the funniest part was one day me and my mates were having a lan game and i stuck one of these things on another players fore head. it was just the most commical thing i have ever seen - he was running around with this laser beam sticking out of his head.

i actually wet myself laughing that day.

FFS, necro thread got my instant answer, the UT guided nuke is the most unparalleled awesomest weapon ever put into a fps game:

For all you nubs, back in 2000 there was no rival http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRnwzaBu-AQ

Would love to know if anyone on here used to play UT back then on the NZ servers, back when FPS was fun and hacking never existed.

Yeah but it was shit slow, so even a pretty poorly aimed pulse canon shot would bring it down.

I remember we once fired up a server at a lan with instagib all weapons.....

UT99 is still a well potent game.

Vote does not count
Voided by the fact that you call it the 'UT guided nuke' rather than the 'Redeemer'.

Just as Q3A is still raging strong (well... QL these days), so should UT be. It's far better than most others around today even.

and yet I remember vividly the flak cannon, the goo gun, and the guided nuke - and perhaps weirdly, the one thing that I remember the most and used sparingly was the feint :(

Yeah i used to play on the nz ut ctf servers religiously as 'On INC' then later as that narli warcow called 'Cowwiestyle'.

People i can remember off my head, Evenflow, SteelRat, PinkPantha,Payback, these dodgy [SS] brothers who i used to think who hacked and that mysterious 'character'(kid?) who used to spend whole rounds on the nz ctf servers just camping the redeemer spawn spots and sucking badly at UT in general.

I tended to grab the flag then go through the teleporter to the top and drop down the side of the building half way, hide then jump down and hot tail it across the map/inside when the timing was right.

Since April 2000.

So you have been playing all UT evolutions since the original?
Yep, UT2003 sucked though.

Any FPS background before UT?
Well, on pc all I used to play was goldeneye which owned in its day, so many hours of fun !! But ya UT was my first "real" fps game.

I searched to see if evenflow actually had passed away, and all I got was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diJAQL8tWNU

Seems too young though. Unless he's a really babyface 28 year old.
Which is entirely possible I guess since "Musician/Content Producer for @FlyAirNZ (previously @theellenshow @zmonline)" makes him seem not that young... and also not dead.
