    i like the One-Shot weapon. i like to snipe, and the one-shot weapon has high chance of one shot kill. the one shot gun reminds me that i only got one-shot to hopefully win this giveaway of codes!

    The Hammer of Dawn has to be my favourite. There’s no greater feeling of satisfaction than when taking out powerful enemies like Reavers with an orbital laser, while your co-op pal distracts them for you. Gears 2 campaign co-op was the best.

    The BoomShot Got To Be Up There Nothing More Satisfying Than A Triple Blood Fountain

    Longshot sniping when they are engaged in an epic firefight with my teammates.

    Can’t wait to try out the One Shot.

    The Hammer of Dawn. There’s little more satisfying than frying an unsuspecting opponent from above.

    The Retro Lancer, because nothing is more satisfying then brutally stabbing someone in the stomach (or back!) with your epic bayonet!

    I have to admit the Long-shot sniper rifle is my favorite weapon in Gears of War 3 because it is very easy to Headshot my opponents who are flanking my team from all directions. It is very useful in King of the Hill and capture the leader because I can guard my objective and leader.

    My favorite is the Hammer of Dawn. The name sounds so cool, and what it does is even better. It doesn’t get better than a huge laser coming down from the sky and just destroying everyone 😛

    I love the hammer of dawn because its a weapon that you don’t see in most games. I shots a beam from the sky which is really creative for Epic, which is what makes Gears so a good series of games. Along with the excellent graphics it provides when the hammer is shot.

    My favorite weapon in Gears is the Torque Bow. I’ve never gotten any good with it but that 1/100 time it sticks to someone is so satisfying!

    I always loved using the Magnum.

    Scoring a headshot with that is probably one of the most satisfying things in Gears.
