  I love the fact that as part of the recording of this video, Mike was presumably able to put "£5.99 to fire orbital cannon" down as a business expense.

  I just wanted to take a moment to appreciate how adorable Jane's "I'm hurt you don't trust me actually," was.

  &quot;... has an immediate visceral appeal. Not least when you&apos;re using it to peel your opponent&apos;s viscera.&quot;<br><br>Damn that&apos;s a fantastic line.

  &quot;there&apos;s a reason you don&apos;t see someone putting a handle on the iron throne in game of thrones and swinging it around&quot;<br>Would have made a much better ending

  The best thing about Stendarr&apos;s Hammer is: The necessary strength is reasonably easy to achieve. However, the stronger you are, the faster your weapons wear. Once you are strong enough to wield the Hammer, you could only use it one single time before it breaks.

  I&apos;ve always wondered what the orbital strike looked like from the victim&apos;s perspective. Thank you Mike for spending six pounds and thank you Jane for standing very still while Mike kills you.

  Jane is perfect to introduce this. I&apos;m sure that her lab minions have had to do countless hours of testing to determine which items to use as weapons when Jane becomes the evil ruler she is destined to be.

  The Gunblade is noted to be an unwieldy piece of junk in-universe too. It&apos;s implied the only reason Squall and Seifer even use it is because it looks cool and it reinforces their image

  I would throw in the Fat Man from Fallout. <br><br>A personal nuclear weapons launcher sounds great until you realize just how far you need to be from ground zero to survive launching the first shot.

  In the original game, Serious Sam&apos;s ultimate weapon was a cannon. As in, he carries around a long gun straight off the deck of a ship of the line. It fires depleted-uranium cannonballs, just to make it even more impractical.

  I&apos;ve always been curious about Bayonetta&apos;s gun-shoes. I could <b>probably</b> swing a sword and pull a trigger at the same time, but managing aerial acrobatics and convincing my shoes to fire bullets are two impossible things on their own! Also, what if she steps on a pebble and mucks up the barrel, or worse, the rifling??

  Imagine being some random townsperson in Yharnam just trying to protect your family from the beasts terrorizing your city, and you see a guy run towards you, turn a vial of his own blood into bullets before whipping out the severed arm of a great one and start swinging it around like a club.
