You know you want to look... YOU KNOW IT! And I know the last image is making things scroll and how dare I but it is cool.

There are two things that happen when you convert video game weapons from pixels to steel. The first is you get to see how cool they look, and the second? Well that’s usually how impractical they are to use. Ever try to pick up a sword that weighs more than you? You won’t win many boss battles, believe me. Here are twelve weapons that have made the jump all the way to real life, and why you might buy them.

Doom’s BFG - Because you need to make a quick exit through a concrete wall.

Final Fantasy VII’s Buster Sword - Because you can prove what a big man you are.

Gears of War’s Lancer - Because you spent an absurd amount of money for the collector’s edition.

Assassin’s Creed’s Majestic Sword - Because you have an unnatural love for Assassin’s Creed.

Halo’s Assault Rifle - Because you want to hone your skills in your backyard.

Final Fantasy X’s Tidus Sword - Because you want to catch an abnormally large fish.

The Legend of Zelda’s Master Sword - Because you want to time travel.

Dead Space’s Plasma Cutter - Because you’re hopefully not as douchey as this guy.

World of Warcraft’s (insert mythical name here) sword - Because you probably have a collection of about 30 other swords.

Halo’s Energy Sword - Because you want to accidentally kill your cat.

Final Fantasy VIII’s Gunblade - Because carrying around a revolver and a sword was just soooo annoying.

Portal’s Portal gun - Because you’re ****ing awesome.

Bonus! Halo’s Warthog - Because you’re Peter Jackson and they had to give you something when production on the Halo movie shut down.

Now someone get out there and make a life size Soul Edge. It would make a nice coffee table.

Whoever made the Portal Gun is my hero.

Akuma · Jan 25, 2009, 03:05 AM // 03:05

I saw the first Gears pic in my XBox magazine.

Pretty bad ass!

Nice find Inde.. really nice!

I wonder why no one come up with the crowbar from Half LIfe... I mean.. it's just a regular crowbar you see anywhere lol

MrGuildBoi · Jan 25, 2009, 05:27 AM // 05:27

I believe that warcraft sword is Frostmourne(sp?)

Rayzor · Jan 25, 2009, 07:16 AM // 07:16

So I'm told the Buster Sword from Final Fantasy is supposed to be huge? I wonder how tall the one in that picture is. Nothing to scale it against.

Abedeus · Jan 25, 2009, 07:50 AM // 07:50

Saw the portal gun before, but the Warthog is nice.

Please, in the future don't use "Halo" and "Skill" in same sentence. That's a sin against humanity.

zelgadissan · Jan 25, 2009, 03:27 PM // 15:27

Those are some awesome pictures. Almost makes me wish I had manual labor skills to make them myself.

Also, I lol'd irl from Inde saying the Dead Space guy was "douchey." Not that she's wrong, just wasn't expecting it

Faer · Jan 25, 2009, 04:00 PM // 16:00

Op me thanks

Tyla · Jan 25, 2009, 04:03 PM // 16:03

The Warthog and Assault Rifle are pretty awesome, although those weapons suck compared to the ultra awesome mega saw vehicle thingy that's about as big as a realistic size Scarab.

(Yeah, I love Halo. Shush.)

ZenRgy · Jan 25, 2009, 05:05 PM // 17:05

Where is the 1:1 scale replica of the crowbar from the Half Life series? That weapon is more iconic that those pieces of rubbish.

I want the Lancer from the first pic. You can actually get those on ebay, or so they are advertised. Always could be a scam. But still freaking awesome.

Issac · Jan 25, 2009, 05:34 PM // 17:34

Holy #%$# those are amazing haha, wish I had one lol.

Eragon Zarroc · Feb 19, 2009, 07:42 PM // 19:42

lmao, it is impossible to just pick one =D

Painbringer · Feb 19, 2009, 09:49 PM // 21:49

Now we just need a big daddy with the rivit gun

Arkantos · Feb 19, 2009, 09:59 PM // 21:59

WTB portal gun and master sword PST.

RedNova88 · Feb 19, 2009, 10:28 PM // 22:28

The gunblade is damn near perfect looking. I'd buy one, but only if it actually worked... Even if it did it would be damn hard to aim.

Also the portal gun... ME WANT!

Diddy bow · Feb 19, 2009, 10:43 PM // 22:43

I really want that hog and i cant even drive
