The Ten Most Useless Weapons In Gaming

4) Fists, Doom

Doom is a pretty straight forward game. Denizens of Hell are invading Mars, and you must explode them until the situation improves. 

Considering this is the game that invented the BFG 9000, you’d think that every single armament would be more powerful than the last. Not so. 

I’m sorry, but when have you ever faced a cachodemon and thought, “Man, I’m just gonna punch him in his stupid face until he explodes?”

NEVER, that’s when.

Nowadays, melee attacks are some of the most powerful in a shooter, but back in the olden times it was a quick way to end up in a demon slurry.

In other words, using your fist in Doom was about as useful as trying to sing the demons back to Hell.
