Once again asking Jonathan to take a look at the guns of the Valkyria Chronicles series. I’d just love to know the inspirations behind their weapons! And maybe bring in Fam to look at their tanks as well!
just because we mentioned rocket launchers with spinny bits, perhaps a look back at the OG examples from the original Unreal and Unreal Tournament games might be worth a consideration? the 8ball launcher from Unreal 1998 helped set the original trend of rotary barrel rocket weapons ^^
Please Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, deconstruct & analyze the weapons of *METAL GEAR SOLID 3* before the remake comes out. So many weapons in MGS3 to react and comment on like;- - The Patriot's infinite ammo and drum magazine resembling an (∞) symbol as well as the tumbling bullets. - The EZ tranq gun based off a Liberator pistol. - Snake's customized officer M1911A1 and him whittling the pistol grip to use a knife for CQC. - Ocelot's dual Single Action Army and his revolver juggling skills. - The End's custom paratrooper Mosin Nagant with tranquilizer rounds. - The Davey Crockett recoil-less nuclear launcher. - Eva's chinese Type 17 mauser clone with her "bandit shooting" technique. - Tatyana's single shot lipstick pistol. - Volgin using his electricity to ignite and fire off 7.62mm bullets from his hands. - The Boss's quick ability to disarm and disassemble Snake's pistols. These are a few examples and there are so many more other interesting trivias and weapons in MGS3 so please Dave and Jonathan, please consider making a video for MGS3.
I agree, would like to see the comparison for the original ps2 version and the remake😆Lots of good suggestions too. I really wanna see Jonathan's reaction to patriot's inifinity ammo and the 1911 fanboying scene 🤭
I could take or leave 2 and 3 tbh. F.E.A.R. 1 Remaster would be amazing tho. Imo it hasnt aged all that poorly graphically, but it'd still be really friggin cool to see it get a modern facelift
10:44 - I'm bit dissapointed that nobody remebers the orginal "have fun with phisics by pining enemies to walls with bolts" gun - stake luncher from Painkiller. It actually predated HL2 ( by like 2 months, but still ).
Deus Ex - Jonathan needs to look at the guns of Deus Ex. Can't believe he hasn't looked at this series before - would love to see his views on the guns in the second one all using the same ammo 😆
YES!!! Comenting as I press play but THANK you for covering this game! It was a technical game-changer in the industry for their AI (no, not those AI, the old school computer game kind), that is still being used to this DAY as the golden standard! This game is a piece of gaming history.
At least Extraction Point was peak. i remember hearing praise about FEAR. wanted to try it. but somehow got Perseus Mandate thinking it was the majmin game. it was so dogsh^t that i didmt touch a single FEAR game until 2023. FEAR 1 is an absolute classic, FPS masterpiece and i have been playing every toptier indie retro FPS past couple years and old FPS games (Timeshift, CoJ:G&nslinger, Wolfesntein 2009, SiNGULARiTY, FarCry:Bl00dDragon etc) cant hold up to my expectation anymore after my exposure to modern Retro FPS but FEAR 1 gameplay, Arena design still holds tf up.
Don't know why no one suggested, but it would be great if Jonathan take a look on Painkiller franchise arsenal. There are many creative weaponry in those games.
I also suggested this, then I scrolled down and saw you had already posted this comment. Glad to see I'm not the only E.Y.E. fan. May you gain many brouzef's my brother.
I am now imagining Jonathan's personal office with one wall covered by a large weapon rack, containing each gun that has been dubbed an Emotional Support Weapon through this series.
I would humbly recommend Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK have a look at the warframe weapons.
We always called the Particle Gun the "Skeleton Gun", and joked it was a teleporter, just swapping their location with a plastic skeleton in a Spirit Halloween or something.
With Warframe: 1999's time travel madness coming out in a couple of months, it would be an awesome time to start checking out their guns. I'm sure DE would be happy to show off what they've created.
The 10mm HV Penetrator put me in mind of the Soviet, Tula Arms, APS (Avtomat Podvodny Spetsialnyy) underwater assault rifle. Especially with that AK style receiver cover. That & the fact that it fires off big spiky boy steel bolts.
I swear if we ever meet, and you dont have someone with you or introduce your self as, This is/I am Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK. Which houses a collection of iconic weapons, from throughout history. My day will be ruined and my disappointment will be immeasurable.
Great video! Since the Deus Ex franchise sadly seems to be dead these days, I would love it if Jonathan could take a look at the guns from the Deus Ex series!
would love to see Johnathon react to Into the Radius. seeing how he reacts to handling of firearms in VR would be alotta fun, as well as his opinions on how guns can be done better in VR. Im sure Johnathon would definitely get a kick out of all of the weapons having all of their real world functionality, scopes being picture in picture and actually being able to change your magnification on high zoom optics, having to load magazines and organize your ammo etc.
I always presumed that the MP-50 was doing some sort of anti-recoil thing. Those spins is what that barrel somehow turns the backwards momentum into. Or it just looks cool, of course.
Is it just me who watches Jonathan's analyses of the weapons on Saturday afternoons whilst also listening to Rylan on Radio 2? A niche dual like, I think! :D
Speaking of the Spas12 being depicted as semi-auto or switchable in games, I think either 007 Nightfire, 007 Agent Under Fire, or both had that feature in multiplayer. Those might be fun games to feature. Definitely lots of nostalgia there for many people.
Another fun game with wacky weapons is E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy. It's basically a Deus Ex fan sequel made in the Half Life engine by fans of 40k. The studio even went on to make 40k games like Hired Gun. One of the more memorable guns of E.Y.E. is the smg that fire full auto or "fuller auto".
The preview at the beginning of the episode for some reason reminded me of Planetside 2 and now I ask, has Jonathan covered Planetside 2? If not, he absolutely should. Plenty of weapon variety in that game, including more "realistic" weapons and more wacky options. Only trouble is it's a grindy F2P game, so Dave might need to outsource his video clips unless he wants to spend several hundreds of hours acquiring all the weapons across all three factions (requiring separate characters) himself.
Such a good game today still. Remember to patch it up though if someone gets the inspiration to play it. Unlocked frames and stability things. If my memory servers me right, the best thing to load is fpsfix 1.0 or something.
The assault rifle also has that "saw" type of feel to it, given the design of the magazine. Also, picks for episode ideas... 1. Bulletstorm. 2. Army of Two. 3. Ghost Recon Future Soldier. 4. Killzone. There are some ideas to choose from. Laters.
I would guess that the penetrator gun was also influenced by, or perhaps influenced, the Stakegun and Boltgun from Painkiller which was released around the same time. Ultimately, I would guess it was because physics engines were just coming into fashion and the developers wanted cool tricks to use them with, Just go with the "rule of cool" for this one.
10:27 I forgot the name of that old soviet gun that is a harpoon for underwater fights? Closes comparison i can remember to this penetrator for real life.
15:50 Whatever I see spinny rocket launcher I think about Unreal! Not even Unreal Tournament or UT 2004(where rocket launcher was exactly tree barreled), but about first Unreal where it have six barrels... BTW!!! It be cool if there be explored guns from any of Unreal games. Even in first one are some mechanically nace guns or Unreal 2 Awakening because it less popular but have some sick guns.
I wanna see jonathan's reactions and opinion to WITCHFIRE's guns. they are very inspired but have an odd to them. perfect for this series. AND they have a spooky vibe, so fitting for the season as well
Could Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK perhaps have a look at the weapons from Ratchet & Clank 1 (2002)? I think he would find the absurdity amusing. How many times have I asked? Couldn't tell you :D
P.L.E.A.S.E. Consider having Jonathan review the guns from TREPANG² after this. It's F.E.A.R.'s spiritual successor.
it's a spiritual successor in the sense that a mcdonald's burger patty is a spiritual successor to a cow
Awesome game yes yes yes! Please TREPANG2!
Have they not done TREPANG² yet? Maybe I'm thinking of another video series.
Pretty much just aesthetically and not even really then
YESSSSSSS FINALLY. THANK YOU JONATHAN!
Now we need F.E.A.R. 2
Once again asking Jonathan to take a look at the guns of the Valkyria Chronicles series. I’d just love to know the inspirations behind their weapons! And maybe bring in Fam to look at their tanks as well!
I Seconded this! Man Is asking for it and Even I am asking for it after finishing playing VC1 just recently.
I third this
Yeah, Valkyria Chronicles
Then i will fourth this, it would be relly interesting!
Weebweeb!

So many weapons in MGS3 to react and comment on like;-
- The Patriot's infinite ammo and drum magazine resembling an (∞) symbol as well as the tumbling bullets.
- The EZ tranq gun based off a Liberator pistol.
- Snake's customized officer M1911A1 and him whittling the pistol grip to use a knife for CQC.
- Ocelot's dual Single Action Army and his revolver juggling skills.
- The End's custom paratrooper Mosin Nagant with tranquilizer rounds.
- The Davey Crockett recoil-less nuclear launcher.
- Eva's chinese Type 17 mauser clone with her "bandit shooting" technique.
- Tatyana's single shot lipstick pistol.
- Volgin using his electricity to ignite and fire off 7.62mm bullets from his hands.
- The Boss's quick ability to disarm and disassemble Snake's pistols.
These are a few examples and there are so many more other interesting trivias and weapons in MGS3 so please Dave and Jonathan, please consider making a video for MGS3.
I agree, would like to see the comparison for the original ps2 version and the remake😆Lots of good suggestions too. I really wanna see Jonathan's reaction to patriot's inifinity ammo and the 1911 fanboying scene 🤭
They'll definitely do this episode. They're just waiting until close to the remake launch
@@faisalmuhammad6908 yep. jonathaid said multiple times that he is mgs fan
Would love a FEAR trilogy remastered.
I could take or leave 2 and 3 tbh. F.E.A.R. 1 Remaster would be amazing tho. Imo it hasnt aged all that poorly graphically, but it'd still be really friggin cool to see it get a modern facelift
@@xxrocketshark216xx4 Yeah. FEAR 2 would need a lot of rewriting.
10:44 - I'm bit dissapointed that nobody remebers the orginal "have fun with phisics by pining enemies to walls with bolts" gun - stake luncher from Painkiller. It actually predated HL2 ( by like 2 months, but still ).
FEAR is one of the best games ever! So slept on now adays
Weird, I just watched Mandalore Gaming's video about FEAR yesterday and you guys drop this today: spooky.
I like how Jonathan uses his hand to help the camera focus. The mark of a true professional!
Once again asking Jonathan to react to the guns of Cruelty squad. That game is like the Gorbinos quest of life.
Deus Ex - Jonathan needs to look at the guns of Deus Ex. Can't believe he hasn't looked at this series before - would love to see his views on the guns in the second one all using the same ammo 😆
Finally F.E.A.R.!!!! Been waiting for years for this! And the nailgun :D
Of all the games i expected you to get him to react too, i never expected FEAR. Great horror action series
19 years later F.E.A.R. still has some of the best enemy AI in all of video games.
YES!!! Comenting as I press play but THANK you for covering this game! It was a technical game-changer in the industry for their AI (no, not those AI, the old school computer game kind), that is still being used to this DAY as the golden standard! This game is a piece of gaming history.
Cruelty Squad and so on
Noice, now here’s a real blast from the past. Love these games.
Fun fact (googling dev), same dev company would go on to make Shadow of Mordor.
Its not really a “fun” fact as the devs made FEAR, Blood and Shogo yet are now at the mercy if WB games!
Also the studio behind the Noone Lives Forever titles
The only thing we have to fear is Perseus Mandate, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, and F.3.A.R
Eh. F.E.A.R. 2 was fine. not nearly as good as the first, but good. It does have an ending that we DON'T talk about though.
I liked Perseus Mandate more then Extraction Point and quite enjoyed FEAR 2 despite its horrible P90. FEAR 3, yeah that was meh at best.
At least Extraction Point was peak.
i remember hearing praise about FEAR. wanted to try it. but somehow got Perseus Mandate thinking it was the majmin game. it was so dogsh^t that i didmt touch a single FEAR game until 2023.
FEAR 1 is an absolute classic, FPS masterpiece and i have been playing every toptier indie retro FPS past couple years and old FPS games (Timeshift, CoJ:G&nslinger, Wolfesntein 2009, SiNGULARiTY, FarCry:Bl00dDragon etc) cant hold up to my expectation anymore after my exposure to modern Retro FPS but FEAR 1 gameplay, Arena design still holds tf up.
i really enjoyed fear 2,
Don't know why no one suggested, but it would be great if Jonathan take a look on Painkiller franchise arsenal. There are many creative weaponry in those games.
I would love to see jonathan review the guns from the heist game Crime Boss: Rockay City
Valkyria Chronicles next plz
I'd love for Jonathan to look at the guns from E.Y.E Divine Cybermancy. It has some weird guns, like an SMG with two full auto modes.
I also suggested this, then I scrolled down and saw you had already posted this comment. Glad to see I'm not the only E.Y.E. fan. May you gain many brouzef's my brother.

I would humbly recommend Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK have a look at the warframe weapons.
I love how he unintentionally noted the little Monolith improvements on an otherwise standard video game shotgun.
We always called the Particle Gun the "Skeleton Gun", and joked it was a teleporter, just swapping their location with a plastic skeleton in a Spirit Halloween or something.
"Fear is a basic human emotion. But what frightens you more? The evil that you know or the evil that you don't know?" 😱
Please can jonathan take a look at the guns from the division 1&2 particularly the exotics many thanks
I agree 😊
I want to see Jonathan reacting to the guns of Warframe
Jonathan should have a look at the guns of SAO Fatal Bullet and COD Advanced Warfare.
Since it's spooky season maybe Jonthan can look at the weapons of Signalis
He said.. I'm gonna do it.. Getting myself an Emotional Support Weapon.
Please do a retrospective on Killzone 1 to 3, there's some really good stuff in there.
Jonathan should review the guns from Fistful of Frags
With Warframe: 1999's time travel madness coming out in a couple of months, it would be an awesome time to start checking out their guns. I'm sure DE would be happy to show off what they've created.

I hope we get to see F.E.A.R. 2 & 3 as well
If we ever get a reaction to the guns of Warframe, I’ll finally be able to die happy
I swear if we ever meet, and you dont have someone with you or introduce your self as, This is/I am Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK.

Rocket launcher with spinny parts? UNREAL TOURNAMENT?! 1999?!
Im surprised Johnathan didnt mention the angle the MP5 mag is at... it maes my sin craw when i look at it haha
great vid tho!
Great video!
Since the Deus Ex franchise sadly seems to be dead these days, I would love it if Jonathan could take a look at the guns from the Deus Ex series!
would love to see Johnathon react to Into the Radius. seeing how he reacts to handling of firearms in VR would be alotta fun, as well as his opinions on how guns can be done better in VR.

Or it just looks cool, of course.
I think you'd be surprised how much influence Shogo: Mobile Armored Division had on this game.
man i miss this game so so so much
It's only now that you're covering the weapons in this classic? It's nineteen years old.
Is it just me who watches Jonathan's analyses of the weapons on Saturday afternoons whilst also listening to Rylan on Radio 2? A niche dual like, I think! :D
Speaking of the Spas12 being depicted as semi-auto or switchable in games, I think either 007 Nightfire, 007 Agent Under Fire, or both had that feature in multiplayer. Those might be fun games to feature. Definitely lots of nostalgia there for many people.
Wish I could play these games again the OG FEAR NOT 2 or 3 FEAR WITH THE DLC. Absolute masterpieces.
I’ve once was interested in the FEAR games. Be cool if they ever got a remaster.
The front handguard on the "mp5" icon looks weirdly like a galil 🤔
I request for Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK to do the guns of Red Faction 2
This is my comfort food in video form
Another fun game with wacky weapons is E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy. It's basically a Deus Ex fan sequel made in the Half Life engine by fans of 40k. The studio even went on to make 40k games like Hired Gun. One of the more memorable guns of E.Y.E. is the smg that fire full auto or "fuller auto".
Please do Jedi Survivor blasters. So many real world design inspirations there.

Plenty of weapon variety in that game, including more "realistic" weapons and more wacky options.

Any chance will we be seeing you guys review the weapons of Enlisted at some point?
Please do a "Reacts to No One Lives Forever"
we need a F.E.A.R. remaster
PLEASE YOU GOTTA DO CRY OF FEARS WEAPONS FOR SPOOKY SEASON ITS A GREAT HORROR GAME
Witchfire's gotten a lot of hype recently, with the Steam Early Access release. There's a lot of cool guns in there, could be a good time.
I would like to see Jonathan react to Daikatana's weapons.
Evwryone should replay this. Its so clean and smooth. Rabbit reapawn has a video called fear is something and its dope af
Have yall done Wichfire? It's out of early access. The gun designs are a fun look and mixed with magic. Whichfire please...😅
8:45 - "Oi mate! Ya got an artistic loicense fer dat?"
I saw more Unreal Tournament influences from the rocket launcher than anything.
Such a good game today still. Remember to patch it up though if someone gets the inspiration to play it. Unlocked frames and stability things. If my memory servers me right, the best thing to load is fpsfix 1.0 or something.
Question for Jonathan, not Gun related but whats the best band hes seen live? We've all seen the Alter Bridge top!
The assault rifle also has that "saw" type of feel to it, given the design of the magazine.
Also, picks for episode ideas...
1. Bulletstorm.
2. Army of Two.
3. Ghost Recon Future Soldier.
4. Killzone.
There are some ideas to choose from. Laters.
"40k influences everything"
a man after my own heart.
Although it won’t be available until next year, when it does, can you review in the guns of Mouse: PI for hire?
I would guess that the penetrator gun was also influenced by, or perhaps influenced, the Stakegun and Boltgun from Painkiller which was released around the same time. Ultimately, I would guess it was because physics engines were just coming into fashion and the developers wanted cool tricks to use them with, Just go with the "rule of cool" for this one.
I guess we're in that era now of every video having a Warhammer mention now lol. I don't mind it
Everyone should have an ESW
F.E.A.R shotgun my beloved
10:27 I forgot the name of that old soviet gun that is a harpoon for underwater fights? Closes comparison i can remember to this penetrator for real life.

Could Jonathan review the weapons of the video game 'Singularity'? It would fit for oktober.
Condemned franchise guns👋
F.E.A.R 2's ending traumatised me.
Surprised that a rocket launcher with spinny bits made you think of halo, I think its taken right out of Unreal Tournament!
Unreal Tournament rocket launcher was before haylo and had SIX barrels.
I would love to see a video on he weapons of Squad 44
the S in USP is for self-loading
I've been waiting for this for a very long time.Thank you Royal hitman Mr. Feguson :)
I remember it’s sequel rather traumatized me in my youth.
Since you've done FEAR, how about making a video about TREPANG²? It's a modern spiritaul successor of afromentioned game
Are you sure the AT-14 is a USP? It looks to me like an MP-443.
Could be a weird hybrid of the two
Yes! Finally! I think I've been asking for this for years!
Are you going to do the expansion and sequel weapons?
I am once again requesting Caliber! Free to play shooter with a ton of countries represented and all sorts of weapons and weapon variants.
I wanna see jonathan's reactions and opinion to WITCHFIRE's guns. they are very inspired but have an odd to them. perfect for this series. AND they have a spooky vibe, so fitting for the season as well
Could Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK perhaps have a look at the weapons from Ratchet & Clank 1 (2002)? I think he would find the absurdity amusing.
How many times have I asked? Couldn't tell you :D
F.E.A.R huh, Nice 👍
I was truly waiting for this one
Have you Done The Metro Series yet?
Can you do the WW2 game Easy Red 2? It's one of my favorites and I would love to see a professional opinion!
Still kinda want him to review the Stalker series.
Dude make him react to Trepang2's weapons please
