Best video game chaingun?

[DNSKILL5]

Wolfenstein 3D’s chaingun. The original chaingun that started it all, and the fact that it takes enemies down so quick with a loud rapid-firing BANG never gets old.
 

Also, no shit sherlocks and captain obviouses... the real life defined chainguns would be boring in a video game where you have to move around quickly in combat, in fact, so would any heavy machine gun for that matter if we’re going to act like things need to be realistic. I think we can piece this together and assume the OP means what weapon that fits the same category as the chaingun in Doom is your favorite.

Best Gatling guns for me are from Quake 2, Doom 1/2, Doom 3, and Chasm: The Rift

 

P.S.: Oh yeah, I forgot about one from Wolfenstein 3D. But it's not such good, because eat bullets too fast, and with it don't kill enemies as fast as you want

The Venom gun was a game changer. thats when the arsenal went from 'well executed but typical for the period' to 'the king has returned'

- Doom 2016/Eternal chaingun turret mode

- Venom from Return to Wolf definitely

- Chaingun from Wolf 3D

- Serious Sam's minigun.

- Quake 2's chaingun

- Doom 3's chaingun

 

(there are probable differences between gatling gun, chaingun & minigun but who gives a damn, they act mostly the same in video games)

Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal have the best chainguns hands down.

Though ones from Resident Evil 5 and the Resident Evil 2 remake are bad ass too.

I must admit I do like the chaingun/minigun from Brutal Doom. Reminds me of this:

 

 

 

which is the best film EVER.

The MG46 from Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is really fun.

 

I'm not sure if this counts but I was really happy with the Vulcan Rotary Cannon I did for Weapons of Saturn. I don't know, I made it the way I wanted a minigun to feel.

 

Quake's Super Nailgun is also notable, as well as Quake III Arena's machine gun.

Gotta credit the OG here.

Not really a video game, but Skulltag's chaingun or minigun feels really satisfying.

 

And of course, Quake 2's chaingun be like:

"Minigun... for maximum pleasure"

[Toilet_Wine_Connoisseur]

Fallout 76 Gatling gun

 

great weapon sounds, looks cool fun to use great firing and re-loading animations.

Gta vice city's minigun.

 

That thing is so overpowered it makes the last mission, which is normally pretty tough, a breeze in comparison.

It destroys most vehicles and can mow down entire areas of enemies in a matter of seconds.

 

It's the exact same weapon in gta san andreas and the psp games if i remember well.

Turok had a decent minigun.  At least I remember it sounding cool at least.

 

Came here to post this. I really liked the Turok minigun and the high-pitched whirring of the spinning barrels is forever etched into my memory. Turok 2 followed that up with an energy-projection minigun that was also very cool.

I remember these sounds just making my speakers hate their existence.
