Wanted: Weapons of Fate is a third-person shooter video game based on the 2008 film Wanted. The game was developed by the now defunct developer GRIN and published by WB Games in 2009. In the game, which serves as a sequel to the film, the player controls Wesley, while in some flashback sequences, Cross, Wesley's father is also playable.
The following weapons appear in the game Wanted: Weapons of Fate:
Wesley's main weapon in the first half of the game is a Beretta 92FS pistol customized with a compensator and ornate grips. Called the "Flyswatter Pistol".
This non-existent pistol is used by the Immortal and Cross (but only in cutscenes). The gun itself looks like a 92A1 with an Inox finish. There are just two problems with this; first that the 92A1 is not available with Inox finish, and second, the 92A1 did not exist in 2009 when this video game was made. The modeler was probably aiming for a Vertec or M9A1, but somehow messed up the trigger guard. Still, imfdb identifies guns based on the looks.

Note the longer slide with compensator cuts. Interestingly, in this level Cross carries two CZ 85 pistols. The CZ's switch to this pistol in this cutscene, then back to CZ's when the cutscene is over. This is what you get if a different company makes the pre-rendered cutscenes for a game.
Colt Python
Some of the stronger enemies are using Colt Python revolvers.
Wesley and Cross use two CZ 75 Full Auto machine pistols with adjustable rear sights, sound suppressors, and ambidextrous CZ 85-style controls. Wesley takes these pistols from his father's mummified body to take care of The Immortal. Referred to as the "Fire Eaters".
Two CZ 85 (ambidextrous version of the CZ 75) pistols are used by Cross, which transform in cutscenes into the Custom Beretta 92FS. The pistols have a 12-round capacity instead of the correct 10 or 16.
Wesley also uses an ornate and compensated two-tone Beretta 92FS / M1911 Hybrid variant called the "Nightshade". Amazingly holds 20 rounds of .357 Magnum.
Some of the enemies in the later parts of the game use the CornerShot, usually equipped with a Glock 17. The CornerShot allows them to open fire around corner without having to expose themselves. Brummel uses a CornerShot with a 92FS. A fictional version of the firearm is also used by Fox in the movie itself.
Cross uses an M249 SAW twice in the game; once during the level set in 1984, and later in the level set in 2006.
