Some of my older favorites would include the following:

Gauss Cannon (Descent 2) - incredibly powerful and makes cool sounds
Rocket Launcher (Doom/Doom 2) - pretty powerful and makes cool sounds and explosive effects
Guided Missile (Descent 2/3) - one of my favorite weapons in any game; this thing is incredibly fun to use :D

The Helix Cannon and the Earthshaker Missile from Descent 2 were also quite neat. ;)

 
might as well add these:

4º Disc from Aliens vs Predator (throw, slash, return :D )

5º Death Star's Superlaser (need I say more???)

6º GEP Gun from Deus Ex (300 points of "clean" damage, and it has tracking :wink: )
MURPHY'S LAWS OF COMBAT OPERATIONS:
4. You are not Superman; Marines and fighter pilots take note.
7. Try to look unimportant; the enemy may be low on ammo and not want to waste a bullet on you.
12. If your attack is going really well, it's an ambush.
13. The enemy diversion you're ignoring is their main attack.
20. The easy way is always mined.
21. Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy other people to shoot at.
24. If you are short of everything but the enemy, you are in the combat zone.
76. A Purple Heart just proves that you were smart enough to think of a plan, stupid enough to try it, and lucky enough to survive.
79. The bursting radius of a hand grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping range.  
81. The crucial round is a dud.
84. Don't ever be the first, don't ever be the last and don't ever volunteer to do anything.
89. The more stupid the leader is, the more important missions he is ordered to carry out.

I love that thing, especially when loaded with WP rockets. ;)

Weapons...

1.  Crowbar  Half-Life  (Hey, it's better than a fist or knife from other games, and gives a satisfying *clang!* when it hits a marine's head.

2.  Flamethrower.  Wolfenstein 2.  Return to castle wolfenstein. (Was hiding in a bunker on multi, when an american runs into the room with 5 of us nazis in there and he sprays the room with it.  Looked great!  Killed every last one of us.)

3.  Cluster-Helios.  FS2 special.  Fires four Helios torpedoes in the same manner that hornets/tornadoes do.

4.  Thermal Detonators. SW games.  (Who needs a lightsabre when I can blow up the room you're in?)

5.  The last is a toss-up between the Borg Tractor beam and the Romulan Shield inversion beam...  Both have so many uses for storming bases.  :)

:doh: My list in the first page of this thread isn't that good... but I'm not making a new one, it's so hard. :p Anyway, in general, Jedi Knight II weapons are very nice, and FS2 weapons are too, and some other games like Battlezone (I/II) and Duke Nukem 3D (shrinker, freezer, devastator ;7) weapons are quite nice too.
 
Lightsaber with force powers takes the top spot, and the fact that it isn't the best weapon always makes it fun and nice and good.
 
Edit: Forgot that some Unreal4ever weapons are pretty nice, too. :p

 
Can't forget Macross/Robotech's Grand Cannon.

and I want a handheld version. Much easier to carry around than even a bike-mounted one. ;7
