I vote for cutlisting the entire Cool Guns section. I don't see it as a trope, I don't think it fills any particular useful notes function, and a lot of it is just plain creepy.

So guns are "Creepy"?

@Cryptic: That is not on the cards because that is not a TRS thread.

Also, a lot of those Guns are Standard fare for computer games, both the Grenade Launcher and Rocket Launcher used in Resident Evil are on the CoolGuns.Rockets Missiles And Grenade Launchers page. The problem is that the page indicated has a wall of text description, because molotov didn't understand how things work around here. I don't know much about guns, and I hadn't really read the page last time, but there's nothing creepy about wanting to know about the Rocket Launcher you used in Resident Evil 1.

Anyone? What was the question again?

For the most part cool guns is fine. It just has a habit of attracting people who get carried away with gushing about material objects they like. Much of it could use a trim down to essential details.

The question was "can you help me clean it up, since I don't trust myself (Darth Walrus, who originally posted the question) NOT to be biased?"

Pretty much. Honestly major changes like this should not be done by one person.
