watch some guy build a gears of war lancer

Gears of War is notable for a lot of reasons, but the Lancer is certainly among the most memorable. Not convinced? Repeat these two words to yourself: chainsaw bayonet.

You know you’ve got a truly badass weapon on your hands when it looks amazing despite lens flare (and being made of cardboard). Through a few mutilated limbs in there or something and you’ve got a Saw movie pretty authentic recreation.

But what painstaking re-creation of a gaming weapon would be complete without a YouTube video documenting the process? This one. So here’s your video.
