First-Person Shooter
Rogue Warrior is a 2009 first person shooter with third-person cover mechanics developed by Rebellion Developments and published by Bethesda Softworks for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Initially developed as Rogue Warrior: Black Razor by Zombie Studios, the original plan was for a squad-based tactical shooter based around a team of elite US soldiers led by real-life former SEAL Richard "Demo Dick" Marcinko infiltrating modern-day North Korea to sabotage an advanced ballistic missile program, to be released in 2007. This version was scrapped by Bethesda and development transferred to Rebellion, who reworked the game as a more standard shooter with both the planned AI teammates being killed before even having any lines, and the setting changed to the 1980s, with Marcinko uncovering a Soviet plan to supply North Korea with advanced weapons. In the final game, Marcinko is voiced by Mickey Rourke.
The following weapons appear in the video game Rogue Warrior:
The "SAP9" is for the most part a Beretta 92FS, but the player model features a rather odd slide the front and top of which are more reminiscent of a short M1911. The weapon is Marcinko's starting gun in every mission, and comes with a suppressor and infinite ammunition.
The "SM5" is a Heckler & Koch MP5A2, and serves as Marcinko's other starting weapon in singleplayer. The version shown has an S-E-F trigger group set to semi-auto even though the weapon is fullauto only, and a strange additional flash hider.
OTs-02 Kiparis
The OTs-02 Kiparis, called the "OTS-02," is the standard SMG of North Korean and Soviet troops; it is anachronistic since the game is set in the 80s but the OTs-02 was not adopted by Russia until 1991.
The Franchi SPAS-12 appears as the "SPAS-12," shown with a completely incorrect detachable box magazine in order to share reloading animations with the Hawk. It is pump-action only, and does not have a third-person animation for operating the action; when Marcinko uses the weapon while in cover, the action is shown locked open and the forend operates itself, ejecting a spent casing through the stuck-open ejection port.
Rifles
AK-47
The "AK74" in the game is actually an AK-47 with a ribbed AK-74 receiver cover, having neither the correct curve to its box magazine or any of the other distinctive features of the 5.45mm model. It is the most common weapon in the game, being used by both North Korean and Soviet soldiers.
Colt Model 733
The "AR4" in the game appears to be a rather deformed Colt Model 733. The weapon is essentially a better version of the AK, with greater accuracy and more damage, but ammunition is limited.
The PKP Pecheneg appears as the "PECHENEG," and is commonly used by heavy enemies; for some reason the version in game has wooden furnishings, along with a severely misshapen carrying handle. The weapon correctly feeds from the right but incorrectly also ejects to the right in first person, and has no belt animations whatsoever; in third person the belt does not move when the weapon is fired, and when reloading Marcinko swaps out belt boxes without bothering to mount the new belt.
The M26 hand grenade is the standard throwing weapon in the game, used by both Marcinko and his enemies. The throw animation has Marcinko toss the grenade using his left hand, with no attempt to show how he manages to pull the pin.
Model 7290 flashbang grenade
One of the two teammates with Marcinko at the start of the game has a Model 7290 flashbang grenade attached to his chest rig. He never uses it, since he is killed off before he can actually do anything.
