eagle64 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 So today someone showed me a video of the game "Sabrina" (the pop star from the 80's) on the Spectrum.... it looks like it was a side scrolling beat'em up, with a rather curious "weapon/attack" mechanic.... basically you clobbered people with your (Sabrina's) rather large breasts. Can't think of a much weirder attack type in a game (and I have played Takeshi no Chōsenjō on the nes), what can you guys come up with? Gaming really was more magical back in the day (sighs) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoZ21Rc2l7s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the arcade beat-em-up she used a hoover, which is also an odd weapon? Been ages since I played it 2 Currently owned digitals : T7 Encore, T7 Original, Astra iPub and Storm Street Casino.

Retrofruit Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 A nod to the designers at Insomniac here, a couple of the strangest weapons from Ratchet and Clank are the Groovitron glove which causes your enemies to dance in an uncontrollable but satisfyingly choreographed way and the Sheepinator which turns the enemy into a sheep (obviously). The design effort that went into the Groovitron deserves an award with every enemy having it's own dance combination and in many cases the enemy will utter some kind of insult at you at being forced to dance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
