As a tribute to one of the best arcade series of all time, what do you like fragging aliens and soldiers with? :D

Shotgun. Has anyone here ever paused the game after blasting away an enemy soldier with a shotgun? Good God, it's a mess. :eek 2:

Shotgun. Especially on Stage 6, at the beginning where all the soldiers are climbing up, and dropping down the mountain right in front of you. I like to let em build up to about 15 guys and then BLAMM!

Heavy machine gun.. the only instance where you get to shoot diagonal. Sorta.

Heavy machine gun 2x. Nothing like having a heavy machine gun to mow down anybody with, and it's even better when you've got two of 'em.

Camel.
And then the Rocket Launcher (that's how I hear it in the game). I love the guys running around on fire.

Laser....it's constant and does a sh*tload of damage. Really helped out last night when playing through MS 3 (which by the way has the most ludicrously long final stage...EVER).

Yes, but the most fun, as well :D
Hmm, never could hang onto a laser long enough or build up its ammo (which is pretty much never going to happen outside of MS3) to be terribly useful. If I could get one I'd use it...I stick with the MG otherwise.

I voted for the pistol because I always go crazy with the others and die. So I almost always have the pistol.

I had to cast my vote for the heavy machine gun, but the flame shot is right behind it. It doesn't do much damage to enemy vehicles, but boy can it rip those mummies apart... and the effect it has on the normal grunts is hilarious.
In a disturbing, guy-on-fire kind of way, anyway.

I chose the shotgun, but I really had a time trying to decide which one. If not for the shotgun, I would have said the flamethrower myself. This pic says it all:

But I like the shotgun better for its power. I always become giddy when I get one. :evil:

In MS3 I like the Laser you get at the end of stage 3 (upper path)...that wide one...that sucker jams. I think the Shotgun is the only weapon to not have a super mode....at least I haven't seen a super shotgun yet, and I haven't had a shotgun while being fat either. Anyone get the shotgun whilst fat yet? If so, is it enhanced?
Speaking of MS3's last stage, it takes about as long to play that last level, as it does to play thru the whole of MS1, how awesome is that?? I could be exaggerating, but it seems like it anyway, I would guess about 20 minutes to go thru the last level of MS3, I haven't timed myself.

I got good news and bad news.
The good news is that you'll love it when you get it.
The bad news is that there are 6 installments all worth owning.

Nothing beats becoming a zombie and puking blood all over bitches. Though sence becoming a zombie isn't a weapon i'll go with the "flame shot" and "enemy chaser".

But I think my favorite would probably be a tie between the Heavy Machine Gun and the Shotgun. Also, why no love for the knife? :roll:
