The 16 Greatest Video Game Weapons Of All Time

13) Alien Blaster – Fallout 4

You’ll see flashes of activity in the night skies during your travels through the Fallout wasteland, but it’s the time you actually see a flash of light approaching the earth and the sounds of a distant crash that you’ll catch your breath.

Yes, I’m talking about the UFO that crash lands near Vault 81 and leaves a downed pilot cowering inside a cave. Kill the alien and loot its belongings to uncover the Alien Blaster, a futuristic energy weapon that can vaporize enemies in a matter of seconds.

It’s not the most powerful weapon in Fallout 4, but the joy of unearthing it coupled with its ability to down enemies in battle means the Alien Blaster has stayed in my memory long after I closed the book on the game.
