The Image is called Damon_SIG228_3, nothing refering to THIS movie. Could this be a prop from the Bourne movies, didnt he use a 228 in that?

Damon's gun is a P228. Not a P226.

I've been trying to figure this out myself. PropStore is selling the P228, but in the movie, Damon's gun clearly has the longer barrel and squared trigger guard of the P226. It's possible that armory which supplied the guns was short on 226s and had to use a 228 as a back-up weapon (all "hero" guns on movie sets have a back-up double). But as best I can tell, the only SIGs that appear on-screen in The Departed are 226s. -MT2008 13:09, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Infernal Affairs rip off

I'm not saying the Departed is a bad movie and they even said they based the main villain boss off a real crook, but I seriously doubt these events were based on anything real. Everything about it is exactly the same as Infernal Affair, except the very last scene of the movie. If you saw the Departed first and then saw the Chinese movie, you'd think the Chinese ripped off a great American movie, but it's entirely the other way around. I'm not going to argue which is superior. They are both good movies since they both told the same story well, just that the Chinese did it first and made a sequel and a prequel out of it. I just want to put down my two cents about this fact. Excalibur01 15:29, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
