Energy Sword vs. Chainsaw

After playing both Doom 3 and Halo 2, I was wondering which melee weapon is stronger...

Energy sword.
No contest.

Pretty much.

Chainsaws kick ass. Energy swords cannot go through doors or anything. But chainsaws need gas is the only problem... and they are heavy.

Never seen a chainsaw go through a door either.

Wooden, maybe.

Of course an energy sword can go through doors.

ENERGY SWORD!

I can say this much, though. Shredding a zombie or demon to death with a chainsaw in doom is way more satisfying that killing a covie with the energy sword.

Or the chainsaw in GTA SA :3

Energy Sword!

Some people just don’t understand the Golden Rule.

What Totalitus said up there is absolutely true. The energy is probaly a more powerful melee weapon, but not nearly as satisfying. Even when used against the flood in halo, the deaths of enemies in the entire halo series are not nearly as detailed as they should be. It almost seems like no matter how you shoot or kill someone, they die the same way. In games like Bioshock, and Gears of War, each different method of killing an enemy yeilds a different death, and possibly a different corpse.
