You knew this one would be added to The Armory sooner rather than later. Any time Gears of War is brought up this has got to be the first weapon that comes to mind.

the amount of gore was insane yet satisfying. its been a couple of months since i played that game, i'm contemplating playing it again after watching this.

Ya know what needs induction into the SA Armory?
The Knife of Time, from the PoP series.
It's a knife, yeah, but it's cooler than any other knife because it CONTROLS TIME. Find me a more useful weapon than the one that can rewind my dumbass attempt to make a suicidal jump, and I'll actually try to make the damned thing.
Until then, Deja Vu Dagger FTW.
... Deja Vu Dagger. Awesome. Sounds like a speedmetal band... That's it: shit's trademarked now, bitches.
And it didn't even have a chain. It just shot blades that somehow boomeranged. And it wasn't even the most badass weapon in the game.
Yes, I know it's a flash game, but it had some really sweet weapons. A-bomb launchers, black hole launchers and more, all of which you could hold in your hands.
I freaking love Gears of War! Lancer FTW!! I can't wait to get my 360 repaired so I can get on Gears again. Gears of War 2 is gonna be 73545 different types of awesome!!

Why would you say that? Because I did the lancer this episode, the red shell last episode, and the cerebral bore the episode before? I'm pretty sure the shell and bore were on a Nintendo console.

The unnecessary call out on everybody (especially you) are getting on my last nerve and they piss me off even more with this "fan boy topic".
People if your going to make a comment (because you don't like the video) at least offer some constructive criticism and not some off the wall insult that, is a waste of everyone's time and makes you look like a belligerent fool.
And for those who do leave a comment that has at least the slightest bit of though put into it is much appreciated.

The Lancer is definitely a worthy addition to the Armory. However, I also think the following weapons should be added:
1) Hard Knuckle (Mega Man 3) - It dominated the giant snakes in Snake Man's level.
2) Rift Inducer (Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal)
3) R.Y.N.O. (Ratchet and Clank)
4) Megaton Hammer (Ocarina of Time) - You use it to fight a fire dragon. Utterly awesome

If you're gonna go all oldschool and hit up the granddaddy of all arsenals that is the Blue Bomber, might I suggest either the Metal Blade or the Shadow Blade? Sure, nothing like detaching your hand to punch a guy from a half-mile away, but the Blades attempted to make up for some weird defect in Megaman's head that kept him from the always useful (and seemingly simple) skill of shooting UP. Multi-directional fire FTW.
As for Link... this one has a toss-up, too. The boomerang, not only because of its versatility, but also its ubiquitousness as the series progressed, makes it quite the addition. But then there's the oft-overlooked Link's Awakening, which allowed players to DE-equip the sword to make use of more than one item. One day, I wanted to see what would happen if I combined the Bow with the Bomb. Yeah, that's right bitches: Rocket Launcher. Medieval RPG-7 FTW.

Okay, I'm about to reveal just how deep my geekiness goes. The Lancer is in no way new or innovative. in fact, a machine gun with a chainsaw for a bayonet has been around since at least the early 90's. Look no further than the tabletop miniatures game Warhammer 40,000. The chaos marines use a machine gun with a chainsaw bayonet (Called a bolter), and always have, since they were introduced to the game. Not only that,but the rounds fired by this machine gun were explosive rounds. So yes, the Lancer is cool and fun, but it is not new or innovative, as it was out there quite some time before Gears was even on the drawing board.
Damn you're right I forgot about those. FOR THE EMPEROR!

You may be right, and god do I love the Warhammer 40,000k universe, but the question is. What game do you know of that allows you to charge at the enemy and saw them in half whilst still being kick ass as a normal weapon?
These are after all collections of weapons in video games, not weapons from anywhere :S
In conclusion though, both Gears and Warhammer 40,00k kick ass >.<

lol i do love the gun but its pretty hilarious when u are 6 feet away and it cuts them anyway... there was only one cut that accualuy looked like it was real in this entire skit.
is the best in-game weapon to ever exist. I'm glad this video exists. it needs to be brought to everyone's attention!
one time I was trying to demonstrate it to a friend for the sheer satisfaction, and I chainsawed four people in a row during a round in the Mansion map. it was hilarious. I definitely got some angry words from the Locust side.

I really liked this addition to the armoy so far i wasn't to immpressed wth the armory cause all the weapons b4 this were on your top 10 best weapons video and it made it seem like recycled material. hope to c some more great weapons like the homing missle in contra 3
I down personally own GOW but I've played it many times. How is the saw "Cheap" online? That doesn't even make sense to me. Okay, basically it's the exact same as a knife in COD4 just a lot cooler.
I know not everyone thinks that it's overpowered but it's the people that call you a G3 n00b in COD4 that would think it's over-powered. [/rant]

The Lancer is by far one of the most kickass weapons ever conceived. I Can't Wait for GoW 2 Saw duels.
Pure awesomeness...

God DAMN
That's one hell of a wepon haha. Nice job guys. Been wondering when the next episode was coming.
Yeah Destin
I also hate Snipers!!! (Specially in Call Of Duty 4 Online......they can suck my Shotgun, those bitches!!)
(I also love THE LANCER!! It goes place #2 in list for the best weapons ever made 4 video games ) :3
one of the first things i noticed about this game
the amount of gore was insane yet satisfying. its been a couple of months since i played that game, i'm contemplating playing it again after watching this.
pretty boring weapon. The

Nice Destin, when I saw the lancer I thought oh this is boring what can he say that no one else has but you proved me wrong. Good work Destin :D
I love the lancer
The lancer definitely deserves to be added. I can't wait to see what the next weapon will be.
Yeah
gotta love chainsaws gotta love gears of war too
Better gun if ...........
it would only be better if u could shoot the blade at some body and it came back because it was on a chain.
wow
that just made my day
Thats soo unrealistic. You
Thats soo unrealistic. You should be ashamed for suggesting such a thing.
Whats next a bullet that burrows into your skull?
not only that..
but why not make it explode right afterwards? :)
whirrrrr....
How about a sickening drilling noise when it makes contact?
Bladerang from Heli Attack 3?
And it didn't even have a chain. It just shot blades that somehow boomeranged. And it wasn't even the most badass weapon in the game.
Yes, I know it's a flash game, but it had some really sweet weapons. A-bomb launchers, black hole launchers and more, all of which you could hold in your hands.
gears 2....
some versatility in gears 2 ought to keep the lancer quite fresh.
good call, darren.

yes!
i have had some good times with that weapon and used it to single handingly to take out my friends who were on the other team and they got pissed
speaking of weapons
i'd like to see some kind of sniper on the list, especially the farsight from perfect dark, that thing seriously noobed the pwns
Ha!
I wish I played against "ScrewAttack HQ" on GoW online.
Man, this gun is a classic now.
Lancer
The lancer OWNES.
Good stuff!!
Great stuff Destin, i've been waiting a shit-long time for this!
Lancer deserves to be on the list
I vote for the Genocide Gun from E.D.F. to go in next.
Not that good armory
Doom still has the best chainsaw, and GOW aint that good game, too frigging repetitive. Same crap over and over again.
I never buy the "repetition"
I never buy the "repetition" argument because you can say that about ANY game.
