Over breakfast this morning (!), my 12-year-old son corrected me regarding the Gears of War 2 (video game) signature weapon: It is not a chainsaw bayonet, he explained, but rather a "Lancer," which is, apparently, a high-powered assault rifle for killing aliens that also includes, at the end of its barrel, a chainsaw. Which, from what I can tell, is used in the game pretty much as a bayonet. And which, I am also told, can be purchased in replica form at Amazon for $139.99 (!!). The replica comes complete with fake blood, I am assured, but not, as I was already informed, nearly as much as I might think.
Well, at least we got that cleared up.
