    I will probably use wacky science-y technology, AKA 'magic', to fight.
    If anything gets close enough, I will strap fists to my fists so I can punch while I punch.

    I'm usually drawn to close combat, so I hope that selection isn't terriably stunted. Whips: yum!

    Sure, like a laser whip from Metroid.

    probably some kind of melee I think with a ranged pet.

    I proffer light weaponry than big heavy things like mini-guns, something like a sword/knife and a pistol/SMG.

    Boulders!
    Swords I guess. -w- I used a dark lance in TO so hopefully something like that will be in.

    Acrobat, but I don't see backflipping enemies and stabbing them in the back happening.

    I'd like to pick up a sniper and pick off my enemies from far away, if not that than a pistol would do.

    I'm going to use the good old shield and sword!
    Or change the shield to a gun!

    I really just want to wield only a sword and ride in a massive Mech yelling "Drive closer i want to smack them with my sword!"

    Flashy over the top explosions and effects does it for me! Love to pummel things with a huge sword too though. Buuuut most likely Imma be running around dualwielding multishot rocketlaunchers/superlasers. :rolleyes:

    When close to enemies, close ranged combat with guns

    When far away from enemies, long ranged combat with guns

    doesn't get simpler then that for me

    I use anything that gets my fancy, but ranged combat tends to be my forte with a melee weapon to deal with things that get close

    I shall wield...

    SCISSORS! FEAR ME AND MY SCISSORS!

    *cough*
    in all seriousness, I'll probably go for some sort of ranged weapon. laser if it's auto recharge or something, if no weapons have infini-ammo, I'll go for a good old fashioned chemical propelled gun. maybe a semi-auto rifle...

    alternately, if they exist in game, a gyrojet rifle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrojet

    Ethier 1 or 2. 1: Ride in a mech and blow everything to smitheriens 2: Laser gun and a shield in the other hand, shooting then quickly shielding myself
