Painkiller's Wooden Stake Gun

Mixed with in-game physics, a stake gun is the one of the most satisfying weapons ever to appear on a game. There is nothing like ramming a wooden stake on an enemy, or use it to impale a poor sucker against a wall or a building and watch them flop around helplessly while you pump their guts full of stakes. If you must ask - it is incredibly fun to watch.

The Stake Gun also has an alternate fire that shoots grenades in a slow high arc that explode seconds after hitting the ground. The grenade itself can also be shot by the wooden stake in flight, making it an ideal combo for players. This combo makes the grenade launcher short range but erupts instantly.
