Joystiq's E3 2008 Weapon of the Show Award

by Justin McElroy { Jul 17th 2008 at 6:30PM }

Normally, we wouldn't be so quick to hand down a major honor like this, but with just a few hours left in the show we feel pretty confident. So, on behalf of Joystiq and the Joystiq network, we're pleased to present Running With Scissors, creators of Postal 3 with the coveted Weapon of the Show award for ... badger on a harness.

Confused? Here's the basic premise: It's a badger on a harness, and when you point it at people it wrecks their shop until they die from it. Congratulations, Running With Scissors, enjoy it in good health.

Was this playable at the show?

This deserves a real-life replica.

Personally I would have given it to the rocket launcher thing you can make in Fallout 3 that shoots junk.... namely teddy bears

Amazing.

I live in the country - I might actually do that - I have the raw materials, now all I need are a few rabies shots.

The world WILL be mine!

I think the best weapon at the show was the wiimote and nunchuck during Wii Music drum playing. You could totally bludgeon a mother with that thing.

mr mobius @ Jul 17th 2008 10:37PM

I'd suggest strangling personally.

That is f'ing hilarious! Action figure time.

You obviously didn't see the custom made weapon that kills people with lunch boxes and teddy bears in Fallout 3.

An accolade truly earned.

TrojanGuy @ Jul 17th 2008 8:20PM

Honey badger!

blah @ Jul 17th 2008 9:40PM

Top Gear reference? +1 for you my friend :D

The honey badger goes straight for the testicles for anyone who doesnt know the reference. Jeremy Clarkson = Legend.

Shignami @ Jul 17th 2008 8:22PM

Reminds me of that "Far Side" comic where the guy had the catapult that shot dogs.

Chris Are @ Jul 17th 2008 8:47PM

And let me guess: when one cycles through the weapons, this little number is pulled out of no where along with the hand gun, rifle, rocket launcher, etc? Pulling a bunch of guns out of a jacket makes sense, but you're telling me this guy is running around w/ a badger on a harness inside his jacket? Now that's just silly! :-)
