11 Gaming Weapons We Want on Guns in Gears of War 3

6- Athena's Blades (God of War)
This one's a bit hard to envision in action, but imagine being able to thrash your aggressors with Kratos' unevenly serrated Blades attached via chains affixed to your gun. Mastering using these weapons could be tricky at first, but it's no more outlandish than Gears' Chainsaw Bayonet.
5- Nail Gun (Quake)
We know what you're thinking, 'a gun-attachment for a gun?' but hear us out. Adding Quake's Nail Gun to any firearm would make for one incredibly deadly weapon. Hitting your adversaries with a hail of metal nails is the perfect way to match the brutality of the Lancer's Chainsaw Bayonet.
4- Lightsaber (Star Wars)
The classic Star Wars weapon needs a reboot. We've seen everything possible out of the Lightsaber, so why not team it up with a firearm? It's already more dangerous than your standard-blade bayonet, so adding the ability to deflect bullets (we're assuming bullets aren't as strong as blaster fire) would be icing on the gun cake.
3- Mace (Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion)
As forceful as the butt of a rifle is, sometimes a more blunt approach is needed for a melee gun attack. How about a large spiked ball on the end of a stick or chain? If you're not going to shoot an enemy in the face, how about caving in his face with a mace?
2- Grappling Hook (Mortal Kombat)
More often than not, firing on at enemies who are just out of reach with anything other than a sniper rifle can be a giant pain the ass. Why not bring your living targets to you? By attaching Scorpion's trademark flesh-piercing ninja spear to your gun, you'd be able to wound your enemies by harpooning the add-on into their bodies and bring them to a closer range for you to finish them off.
1- Soul Edge (Soul Calibur)
So the legend of Soul Edge is that whoever has possession of the weapon will be consumed by the evil of the sword, and likely use its god-like powers for ultimate evil. Now imagine how bad ass that sounds, but add a gun! Yeah, we'd like this weapon very much please.

I really like the Giant Hammer idea , maybe some magic mushrooms and you can whomp the hell out of the Locusts ! And maybe a Magic Kingdom setting and break blocks and not be Marines but Plumbers and maybe not Locusts but Goombas!

Funny related story: Cliff Bleszinski said they considered these types of ideas for Gears 2, and told me they had a big meeting where Epic designers came up with a bunch of ideas. He said "when it got to belt sanders, we decided we'd had enough." He said he considers the chainsaw to be the "light saber" of the Gears series.
Great list, though. I'd add the buzzsaw Ripper from Dead Space.

I'd attach a Gravity Gun for kicks :)

a grappling hook is the only thing on this list with any practical use (and maybe the tazer)
