Siren is a stealth survival horror title developed for the PS2, released in the UK as Forbidden Siren It's most notable for having several unique twists on gameplay; such as a non-linear progession where the player will replay stages/play as other characters in stages set before characters they played before and accomplish sub-objectives that will make progression easier for future characters and "Sight-Jacking", an ability that allows the player to see through the eyes of the Shibito as they search for the player.
The game mostly features the player either unarmed or locked to melee weapons as unlike future Siren games, they are completely defenseless when unarmed and Shibito weaponry cannot be taken from them when they are "Killed" as the Shibito seemingly canonically hold an incredible tight grip on their weapons while they recover. (The one time a Shibito drops a weapon as part of a scripted event, they are electrocuted which seemingly makes them release their grip on their revolver.)
Gun Shibito generally come in 2 types "Patrollers" armed with Revolvers and "Snipers" armed with Rifles; Patroller Shibito will usually chase the player if they see them, while Sniper Shibito are generally static and require the player to use distracts/traps in the environment to distract them, being used often as a way to block the player from certain paths, there is also the rare "Fly" Shibito, who fly in the air and armed with revolvers as well.
All firearms are reloaded 1 bullet at time, Shibito will notably only partially reload their weapon during combat, reloading only 2 bullets (The maximum amount required to kill the player) if they can see the player at a distance and only quickly reloading a singular bullet if the player is close enough, the player will always need 2 shots to a kill a Shibito with a Revolver unless they can peform a "Sneak Attack" with it by shooting an unalerted Shibito while rifles in the player's hands will always kill in one shot outside of one of the final bosses.
Siren would be followed up by Forbidden Siren 2, released only in PAL regions in English, which is set on Yamijima Island and notable for having a large amount of JSDF weaponry and Siren: Blood Curse, a remake for the PS3 that is heavily inspired by "Americanized" remakes of Japanese horror Films.
The following weapons were used in the videogame Siren:
Revolvers
Unknown .38 Revolver
An unknown .38 Revolver appears primarily as the weapon of Tamon Takeuchi, a university professor. The revolver's internal name within the game's files is "COLT38", a reference to Colt's Manufacturing Company.
Nambu Model 60
The Nambu Model 60 is used by the revolver Shibito, its most notable user is Tetsuo Ishida, a highly drunk police officer who has "half" turned into a Shibito by the time Kyoya meets him and is the first enemy in the game as well as a recurring unique Shibito. Kyoya can eventually obtain the revolver for one of his final levels, though with only the initial 5 shots and no spare ammunition.
Type 26 Revolver
The Type 26 Revolver is found by TV show presenter Naoko Mihama in the Custodian's Shack of the mines in Gojaku Peak and shes uses it for her stages, no other characters use this weapon. The revolver's internal name within the game files is "26NENSIKI", a reference to the revolver's original military name, the Year 26 Pistol (Year 26 referring to Meiji 26/1893, the year the rifle was adopted by the Imperial Japanese Army).
Rifles
Shibito Rifle
An Unknown Rifle appears being used by the Sniper Shibito, it appears to use the same model as Akira's Murata but it has different textures and holds only 5 shots as opposed to the Type 22 Murata's 8.
Type 22 Murata
The Type 22 Murata Rifle appears as the weapon of Akira Shimura, a local hunter, it holds 8 shots and despite the description claiming otherwise, has the same firepower as the normal Hunting Rifle.
Hunting Rifle
An unknown rifle called the "Hunting Rifle" is obtained by Kyoya near the end of the game, it is chambered in 7.62 x 51mm and has a capacity of 5 bullets. The rifle's internal name within the game files is "REMINGTON", a reference to Remington Arms.
