  Toy chainsaw + Nerf gun + time = DIY Gears of War gunFiled under: Culture We're not sure if it came to him in a vision or if he was visited by an angel, but when forum-goer Forsaken_angel24 played Gears of War, he paused the game and told the Dom to his Marcus that he was going to build a Lancer, the game's memorable assault rifle slash chainsaw.That's right about where we imagine his friend politely excused himself and phoned the local police, but even that couldn't stop Forsaken_angel24 from following through with his dream: he combined a Nerf gun with a toy chainsaw and copious amounts of free time to create a believable enough copy of the Lancer. How believable? The chain on the chainsaw actually moves, the lights actually light up, and it shoots totally realistic Nerf bullets. Still curious, peep the video after the break. Oh yeah, there's a video.[Thanks, Phillip]Continue reading Toy chainsaw + Nerf gun + time = DIY Gears of War gunRead | Permalink | Ema

• Gears of War's Locust Inspired by Tolkien

  2007-09-13 00:12:04

  It's usually fairly easy to the JRR Tolkein's influence on the average RPG, but CliffyB says his shooter Gears of War took inspiration from Lord of the Rings, as well.In an interview with CVG, Blezinski explains that the game's enemy, the Locust, have more than a little in common with LOTR's Uruk-hai:We wanted the Locust to be intelligent savages; they're like the Uruk-hai in LOTR, only with guns. The Uruk-hai would organise themselves, line up and then storm in - even though they look like horrible monsters. That's what the Locust essentially are: bipedal, thick-skinned, but also smart enough to build and use their own weaponry. They use tactics - they're not just running at you mindlessly.All we need now is a Hobbit mod. Source: CVG & Game|Life Online Games Gears of War Tolkien shooter LOTR Locust Xbox PC games
