Re: I'm Naming Planets after weapons. Any ideas?
[spoiler=BFG 9000]The BFG 9000 is a futuristic weapon found in the video game series Doom. The BFG 9000 is a huge, solid metal gun that fires balls of green plasma. The most powerful weapon in the games, it is capable of destroying nearly any player or enemy in the vicinity with a single hit. Quake II and Quake III Arena pay homage to the BFG 9000 with a pair of similar weapons both called the BFG10K, although the Quake III Arena version acts more like a rapid-fire plasma launcher than a single shot mass destruction device.
Names
The abbreviation BFG stands for "Big **Filtered** Gun" as described in Tom Hall's original Doom design document. In the Doom II user manual, BFG is said to stand for "Big **Filtered** Gun". Another name, according to the motion picture, is "Bio Force Gun" (although in the movie itself, "Big **Filtered** Gun" is spoken as it comes into view). In the Quake II manual it says it stands for "Big, uh, freakin’ gun".
Critical reception
UGO.com ranked the BFG 9000 at number two on their Top 50 Video Game Weapons of All Time list. In the article they noted the strategic effect of the weapon, stating "It was marvelous and complex, and we should not hesitate to put this weapon down in history as one of the best." X-Play ranked it number one on their Top 10 Badass Weapons list, stating that while "not as fancy as the gravity gun", it was the first weapon that "really made us swoon". IGN editor Tom McNamara listed the BFG as one of the ten best weapons in video games, placing it at number ten.Machinima.com named it number one on their list of Top Ten Video Game Weapons, stating "Do you really need a reason why this tops the list?"[/spoiler]
