    Default get the power up, win the game.

    So, what do you think is the single most obnoxiously powerful power-up/weapon/spell/whatever in game history? I'm going to go ahead and say that the Crissaegrim from Symphony of the Night takes that award hands down. Mashing attack mindlessly will kill everything in front of you and really sucks the difficulty out of the second half of the game.

    The power stones in Power Stone are kind of annoying. I always find the game more fun without them. It's like whoever manages to collect all three power stones automatically wins the round.

    Well, there is dodging to offset the damage from potentially being hit (not to mention taking damage in a transformed state=big drain of the Power Stone meter), but I still see your point. Wangtang and Ayame are hard to beat when they're transformed.
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    Knights of the Round. While its MP cost is crippling (without HP<->MP), it is a move that can single-handedly take down the endgame bosses with a single hit, and in that case, MP doesn't much matter. It may not be terrible for random encounters, since you can only use about 3 before you are out of MP, but if there is a single move that will allow you to win FFVII, it is that summon.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Drachma's attack Hand of Fate is absurdly overpowered. It can take out any non-boss in a single hit, and is capable of bringing down Ramirez in only three strikes.

    Oh, yeah? Try TWO crissaegirms with TWO Rings of Varda. Now THAT'S power!

    I think the Masamune from FFX is pretty strong, too, when it's fully powered.

    The Concrete Donkey from the Worms games is ridiculously destructive, and so is the Super Banana Bomb.

    Planet Buster Bombs, with a level 4 fuel component, in SMAC.

    You can literally tear continents apart. A couple of them will win you any war you're fighting. Of course, it pisses Planet right off and you have to face like a fiftyfold increase in mindworm attacks, but eh, the things are sill retardedly powerful.
