Global Operations
Global Operations was an online first-person shooter developed by Barking Dog Studios and released by Crave Entertainment/Electronic Arts in 2002. During development, the Vancouver-based dev team rented real firearms from the same Canadian movie armory that supplies to Stargate: SG1, The X-Files, and other productions filmed in Vancouver. The artists fired and took pictures of the guns that they rented, and used this source material to depict the firearms more realistically than any game which had been released up to that time. This is perhaps the first time any game development team ever attempted this, and it has since become common practice for many big-budget games (i.e. the Call of Duty franchise).
