    So instead of getting shot in the chest, you'd have two arm wounds instead?

    Pretty hardcore, 6 shots from a .50cal.

    The slow motion shots were cool to watch with the machine gun the katana was all like "Rarr I am mighty bullet splitting machine omg nooooooooooooo *falls in slow motion*"

    This is a truly remarkable achievement. Future generations will sing of this triumph.

    Holy **** on toast.

    ...after the awe has worn off, two things come to mind. 1: you'd just get shot in two places instead of one, if you were fortunate enough to have your sword potitioned exactly where someone shoots you. 2: I wonder how much this is due to the absolute razor-sharpness of a katana blade as opposed to the speed of the bullet striking any sharp edge. I'd be interested to see whether, say, a butcher's knife would have the same effect.

    I guess it's possible to do the math...

    Ah, but if you do one of those flip things so you are sideways in mid air and cut the bullet in half you escape scot free.

    I swear I made a reply already. Oh well.

    I'm not surprised at these movies at all. Nothing exactly spectacular about them.

    It's sick the chunk the browning rounds take out of the katana with every shot... I'd like to see how well tank armor stands up to that thing...

    Sword > Gun

    Hence Gunblade > all.

    Too bad human capabilities aint fast enough to use the sword éffciently vs a gun.

    Don't they cost like a bajillion dollars? I don't think he'd appreciate you ruining it just for reproducing something you've already got on a video on the computer.
  • GundamCLGundamCL Join Date: 2003-08-03 Member: 18786Members
    I'm not really surprised since the bullets are made out of lead, which is easy to shape.

    Now if the bullet was made out of steel, I think it would have been different.

    No.

    Gunblades suck.

    They really, REALLY suck.

    (From a realistic standpoint at least)

    Very well. In fact, it's nigh-impossible to shoot through the armour of a main battle tank with a machine gun. You need something like a sabot round to punch through that.

    !

    that truly is tight, but I cringed when I saw what it did to the sword

    and yeah, you are not going to do anything to an MBT unless it your using something that explodeds [in a big way] or pierces
  • lolfighterlolfighter Snark, Dire Join Date: 2003-04-20 Member: 15693Members
    Antitank weaponry, however, can easily be carried by infantry, which makes the battle tank little more than a rolling coffin in this day and age. Except against low-tech nations like Iraq, for example.

    Actually, if you want to kill folks,

    Neutron Bomb > a bunch of other military stuff > guns > swords.
