Another incidence of companies copying V.Games' weapons...

Check this out. This gun looks very alike to the Battle Rifle on H2. Its made by a leading weapons manufactuer called bushmaster. My pops currently owns an AR-15 made by them, but its nothing in comparison to this thing. [url]http://www.bushmaster.com/shopping/m17s/ [/url]

  • Casey hit teh nail on the dot/butt/head/whatever it's called. I'm glad someone mentioned Starship Troopers. God I love that movie even though everyone else hated it.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MicDeath just to let you know, many weapons are based off REAL weapons, with the exception of sci-fi guns.[/quote] Mmmkay...many weapons are based off REAL weapons? Wha? And, actually, every single sci-fi gun that's ever been in a movie has been made out of a real gun. For example, both the Pulse Rifle from Aliens and the MORITA from Starship Troopers are, actually, highly modified and dressed-up surplus M1A1 Thompson submachine guns. Yup, they're Tommy guns. Heck, even in Halo 2, you can find a very closely related real-life counterpart for all its human weapons. I actually did a comparision thing in a thread like this a lonnnnng time ago, but I'll throw it in again. The [url=http://www.xboxgazette.com/halo2/pic_halo2_weapon_smg.jpg]SMG[/url] looks an awful lot like a cross between an [url=http://www.parkcitiestactical.com/pdw_02s.jpg]H&K MP7[/url] and a [url=http://world.guns.ru/smg/steyr_tmp.jpg]Steyr TMP[/url] (which, coincidentally, is almost physically identical to the CMP 150 from Perfect Dark...hmm, I wonder why?) I've already done the Battle Rifle. The [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v459/MajorMidget/halo-2-20041019010425303.jpg]Sniper Rifle[/url] looks almost identical to the South African [url=http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn55-e.htm]NTW-20[/url] The [url=http://halo2.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/download/ImageBank/WebHome/Pistol.jpg]Pistol[/url] is basically a [url=http://www.waffenworld.de/images/25260p99freigestellt.jpg]Walther P99[/url], which is also James Bond's replacement for the Walther PPK. There ya go.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] You die now I think the FAMAS comparison is close, but I think it looks more like a Walther G22 (google it)[/quote] So you think it looks like [url=http://www.waltheramerica.com/images/G22.jpg]this[/url]? I dunno...that's stretching it a whole lot...

Not only does it look nothing like the BR, but that gun was in production looooooong before Halo 2 was even in its concept stages.

  • I don't think that's much of a rip off design, it's a typical bull-pup design, there's 100s of em and they all kinda look alike.
