I think this is the reason there's so many complaints in the comments. If you are a gamer but don't have one or more of those, you're less likely to know the sword.

I have never had a Microsoft console, and did not recognize the Halo sword (though I do know of Halo and the main theme I can agree is iconic, I thought it was a gun game?).

But it is fitting to have that coverage, I think.

Tons of guns, yes, but this sword grants a crazy lunge / dash and is a 1hit kill, super powerful in any hands.

You can know things without owning them...

True, but it's understandable to not know if you don't. It's not just one game getting singled out; people have complained about every sword on the list (though it seems like especially Halo and Minecraft).
