a joke? what r u smoking?

plasma pistol (as bungie calls it) is like the cricket in men in black. small, but powerful when used correctly. If u just overcharge and then shoot the guy then switch to pistol, u can kill him quickly

It's great for campaign, not very good for multiplayer.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Have you ever charged it up

It has it's place in MP. It is always great to be able to hit somone who just recently picked up and overshield with the charged shot. Actually, if you can fire it fast enough, it basically does the job of the plasma rifle as well. And of course a jumping charged shot followed up by a thwack is most effective. All in all, it is a very versatile little weapon.

It's the best weapon in campaign BY FAR. But in multiplayer it's not that great.

The plasma pistol was over looked by many for such a long time. I didnt use it for the longest time. I went to a LAN center and played a 2 v 6 CTF and kept capping flags so my friend and I decided to use what we thought was the worst weapon. In fact, it makes the game a lot of fun. When used right, it is one of the most fun weapons in Halo 1.
