Pistol is very good overall. Good clip size, powerful, medium melee speed, and good at long and short range.

The pistol is DEFINATLY the best weapon in my opinion.. But I voted for the Sniper Rifle

It's been a common link that in shooting games people say "The only weapon you acutally have to aim with is the sniper rifle, so it's the best" -- But that's not my point and I dont agree with it. I think I love the sniper because of the feeling you get when the other guy jumps in the air and takes one right in the head... Priceless

Shot gun & Sinper I chose the Shot gun though cause it's a very prowerful wepon at close range and I don't think people would have enough fire to take doen your sheild unless it's far range the other person has a Sniper riffle.

Shotgun. The Sniper Rifle is a close second, but I think the shotgun is a bit more fun to use.

I'm surprised the Plasma Pistol hasn't been brought up... it's my favourite. Overcharged shots, the possibility to fire faster than the plasma rifle (even no need for a certain level of heat before maximum rpm!) and the stun. I love this thing, really, really much.

Plus, in campaign, it is very easily accessible.

The RL is funny to use, big explosions=big fun. I feel very proud after decimating a covenant squad with a SR, and the AR is just for kicks (the sound, the looks, the ability to cut through alien tissue...) but my favourite is the PP!

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

You can snipe w/o the scope and be deadly close range... a head shot point blank or two body shots and you're dead. Plus... in the right hands you will wish there were less than 4 rounds.

i like sniper rifles but the pistol has to have my vote as it is the sharp shooters weapon of choice, 3 shots and goodnite. but at the same time every weapon has a particular use for particular situations and vs certain guns advantage can be gained by your choice of weaponry and of course the all important decison of weaponry is distance as i find distance is everything to your selction of weapons. but for simple versitlity the pistol would take it for me as it works ok up close and rather well from medium range on the verge of long range.

To tell the truth, im not sure! i always pick up the sniper rifle by habit because i was once good with it, but for some reason ive turned pants. ( it may be my Sensitivity but i dont know )

but ive voted sniper rifle because i always go and use it....its one of the 1st things i pick up!

I usealy like to keep a pistol and a sniper rifle. Even though it is easier to get more kills with the sniper rifle, I would rather carry around the pistol.

i dunno their is something distinctly satisfying about the melee attack on the assult rifle, seems quicker and looks slicker than any of the other weapons melee attack and if used correctly only takes one round of fire from midium to short range fire to kill a person. its ok i would still put it near the bottom of my list tho actually, im not so sure why im defending the assult rifle as the best thing is the melee not that it really is any quicker than the other guns, excluding the rocket launcher. ahh ya gotta love im all, except the needler which ya can only use to good effect in particular situations.
