The Ten Most Useless Weapons In Gaming

Written by: Adam "ManKorn" Korenman, CC2K Video Games Editor


1) Klobb, Goldeneye

If you search the All Powerful Google for the “Worst Weapons in Gaming,” you will invariable come across the Klobb. Billed as a submachine gun, this epic fail of a firearm was the bane of all gamers back when Goldeneye first hit shelves. Impossibly worthless, the Klobb combined a minuscule magazine with the accuracy of an Imperial Stormtrooper to create the absolute worst weapon of any game. 

The first time you use the Klobb, you may mistakenly think that it just takes skill to employ correctly. In fact, the only way to actually kill a soldier with a Klobb would be to brain them with the handle. The only way this gun could be more useless would be if it could only fire backwards, but even then it would have a better chance of killing something.

Goldeneye wasn’t just one of the first console shooters, it paved the way for the FPS revolution that eventually ended in Halo, Battlefield and Call of Duty. How crazy that such a monumental game could have such a glaring flaw. 

Wars have been fought over less.

In other words, the Klobb was as useful as the Broncos in a Superbowl.
