I made a script that should do the trick:
var cam:Camera;
function Update()
{
var x:float = Input.mousePosition.x - cam.WorldToScreenPoint(transform.position).x;
var y:float = Input.mousePosition.y - cam.WorldToScreenPoint(transform.position).y;
var zRotation:float = Mathf.Rad2Deg * Mathf.Atan2(y, x);
transform.eulerAngles = Vector3(0, 0, zRotation);
}
Variable cam is the main camera you're using. Rest of it is just simple maths. Assign the script to the arm of your character. wow that really help the only problem now is that the arm aim in a diffident direction but i can fix it

RDJ, thank you for posting this script, after searching for many hours and trying countless other scripts claiming to work which didn't, this did the job. You restored my faith in the community! Wow, thanks! I needed this too! LookAt wasn't working for me. I HATE MATHS! lol. Cheers!!!!

Once again like the other posts this works great for a 2d game, thanks! Is there anyway that the angle returned could be between 0 to 360 instead of -180 to 180?
