Gears 2 hardcore edition ruined in UK

[Kreeeee]

Those willing to pay for the gun will have it re-painted in no time at all.

No they wouldn't, they'd all get it imported.

Since the link was deleted what exactly are we getting instead? Same thing but with an orange nib on the end of it?

Nope, it's painted goooooold.

Wow, uber gay. can buy toy guns in stores that look more realistic they just have an orange nib on the barrel. Dunno why they went so over the top with this thing.

Of course, fair point.

 

[Noel Gallagher]

I'd never buy that, especially at that price LOL

I preordered for £32.

BB gun's aren't sold any more! - look at the BB shops online, they won't sell you unless you prove you have an airsoft license, or the gun is spraypainted a bright color.
Air rifles are excluded from the law afaik.

They still sell toy ones at my local supermarket though, so I fail to see how a clearly unrealistic gun included with a computer game can be considered a rif and hence illegal.

Though it doesn't really matter because anyone who pays £130 for that, painted or not, is a total idiot

Hello there

Run into a bank and shout this is a stick up waving that thing around , total ownage and a massive getaway

 

[Timber]

Shame, but I understand why the law is this way.

I noticed in the states you can get the Gun + Gears Normal for $139.99 or pay an extra $10 for the SE version of the game so $150 all in. Nice collectors piece if you have the space. I guess you're looking at good old auction sites and a lot more money to get the same.

No doubt the American one actually fires bullets too.

 

[Noel Gallagher]

Would be fun if the chainsaw worked

 

[Bonjour]

[DragonWoLf]

What makes me laugh is that you cant sell realistic BB guns, air guns online, but very lethal crossbows are easily available and you dont need a licence, just have to be over 18. Bit Mad TBH

Don’t you think a gun is a bit more deadly and more little conspicuous than a cross bow? Can’t remember the last time somebody got killed or somebody robbed a bank with a cross bow

You don’t see any people or gangs on the street walking about with a crossbow in their pockets lol

Not really any difference to be honest. Niether edition is going to increase your sex life from zero.

Even if you had the American version, it would be nice to look at for about 5 minutes, then it will also be £130 worth of junk.

I can just see the controversy and oh so predictable headlines already, even if it is painted gold.

"New Blood and Gore Computer Game promotes killing with a chainsaw gun, that is included with the game."

"Little Johnny, 5 years old, allowed to buy 18 restricted game blood shocker and given gun"

You know....

Illegal.

 

[MikeHunt79]

The law doesn't even make sense as now you can spraypaint a machine gun pink then wander around the streets with it

Awesome - I'll take a luminous yellow AK47 please...
