: it often does. the mp40 was designed in 1938 but was produced starting in
: 1940. in fact an mp38 would've been an even better choice come to think of
: it.
: the stg44 was made in 1944, the ak47 was made in 1947, etc.
: the guns having anachronistic names doesn't affect gameplay, but it irks me,
: especially in a game that put alot of effort into story and atmosphere.
I never knew that the guns were named after their development year.
Sure a detail like that skipping through can be irritating, although I must admit at least it's better than the Thor and Neptune rooms in Tomb Raider 1, or the Hephaestus room in Tomb Raider Anniversary. (going with that puzzle room's theme, it should have been Zeus, not Hephaestus)
