Man at Arms forges War’s Chaoseater

This most recent build was too cool to pass up talking about as the team of talented craftsmen creates Chaoseater fromDarksiders.

Some random dude with a random blog onGame Reactoris reporting that John Woo is set to announce aMetroidfilm at next week’s Comic-Con in New York City.
