what the hell? Leon is a police officer or was and none of that matters since the assault weapons ban is over and he should be able to get hi-cap (normal capacity) mags. so what is he doing only carrying ten round mags of 9mm for his service weapon? all of the resident evils til now have always used the full capacity mags. what’s up with that? by the way this was the demo you can get at gamestop or eb for gamecube, maybe the final release will change this.
Gameplay always comes before realism. Zombies wouldn’t be near as scary with larger clips.
the thing is these suckers are not zombies. they speak, move fast. wield weapons, climb ladders.
If I remember right the handgun in RE is a Beretta 92. Beretta 92s have several models most notably 92f and 92m. The 92f is a civilian model with lowered ammo capacity but the 92m(military) has a wider grip=wider magazine well=double stack=15+1 rounds(and it’s MUCH more comfy with wide grip).
Maybe RE4 guy doesn’t have a military model?
They have the same capacity.
How so? I mean they could extend the clip, but that would make it rather awkward. Or do I have my letters/makes wrong? I’m pretty familiar with the wider 15 round versions, though I may have the letters for the lower capacity version wrong.
The only one I’m aware of with a slimmer single-stack grip is the Beretta 92SB-C type M, which is no longer produced and wasn’t very popular to begin with. As far as I know, all the other model 92/m9 pistols can use the same magazines. They were sold with a crippled 10 rounder during the ban, but that was a magazine change, not a frame change.
Odd, at the gun stores in the area they have the nasty thin handled abortions that can’t take more than 9+1 rounds always; And when I inquire about the comfy 15+1s they always tell me that they are illegal.
I’m writing all this out of memory…but what you say comes as a bit of a shock to me and I can’t help wonder. I still think I’m right(though maybe fuzzy on model), I guess I’ll have to check again.
PS I’m contracting to gamestop right now and I was watching this guy tell the people around him
“damn, I’m good”
as zombies ripped him apart. He must have repeated this at least 8 times.
He would be standing there in front of the console, the zombies would close in and destroy his health and he would, very smugly, tell onlookers “damn I’m good”.
I think he thought that the object of the game was to kill the main character.
they always used the military models in previous games. claire in RE2 or code:veronica had this cool berreta (could be wrong) with select fire (3 round burst or single) with a foldable foregrip and attachable stock. i was surprised it really existed. and anyway the gun in the new one is not a beretta maybe an HK? i could understand 10 round mags on a compact .45, but a 9mm. the fact is he was assigned by the president of the united states to find his daughter. I think they would give him the choice of any sidearm he wanted.
found the beretta pretty nifty
Ah, the Beretta 93r…I’m in the process of ‘acquiring’ one. When you mentioned the second grip and detachable stock it was the first gun to pop into mind!
Have you seen the NEOSs? I’m kinda drooling…despite the .22LR.
