Resident Evil Weapons
Resident Evil (The game series) has used countless amounts of Guns and weaponry in the whole series. Here is a list of Resident Evil weaponry from all of the games featured in the franchise so far.
Resident Evil
Combat Knife
A weak alternative to the firearms in the game, the Combat Knife is a part of the S.T.A.R.S gear when they are sent into the Arklay mountains. Although it will probably be used more in this game than all the rest considering the lack of ammo around, its still not advised. If you are left with the decision to use the Knife or run, choose run.
Beretta Handgun
The most simple and commonly used Handgun in the game. When you play as Jill, you will have it from the start, while Chris will find his later on. Best used against Zombies, crows and single Cerebus's, its practicly useless against anything else in the game, and youll find it will take up space in your inventory later on . Once you have acquired enough ammo for the Shotgun, dump the Beretta back into the storage box.
Note: The Beretta is the Official handgun for S.T.A.R.S in the first game. It is later reveled in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, that the M92F Custom (also known as the Samarui Edge) is the official S.T.A.R.S Handgun, which was created by Robert Kendo, featured in Resident Evil 2.
Shotgun
Probably the best all-round weapon in the game, the Shotgun will be used almost more commonly than the Beretta. Can blow Zombies heads clean off if aimed upwards, and blow Zombie Dogs to pieces. Once you acquired the Shotgun in the game, youll be surprised how handy it is, and how powerful it is too.
Bazooka
An interesting installment in the series, the Bazooka is a powerful and well ranged weapon: Perfect for killing tougher enimies and bosses. Brilliant when facing the Tyrant toward the end of the game.
Colt Phython
Praticly blows holes in enimies, and depletes the Tyrants health quickly and easily. Not your standered handgun at all, the Colt Phython is guaranteed to take your breath away, and anyone else who gets in its crossfire.
Flame Thrower
Chris finds this gun towards the end of the game, but comes in handy when you have to face the stronger enimies. The flame thrower works well against any enimies like plants, but also does its best against anything else. Ammo is very rare for the Flame Thrower, so save it for important battels.
Rocket Launcher
At the final battel on the rooftop, you will be given the Rocket Launncher to finish off the Tyrant. The tremendous power is almost enough to outweight its anoying recoil values, but the Tryant will have little time to fight back with the rockets coming at him in almost aligned order. It saves your life, otherwise, youd have it keep firing more of those shotgun rounds which dont appear to do much damage to him.
Berry's Magnum
O.k. now this puppy is only available on the Game Cube version, but if you do get it you will feel the power! You will also be given the decision later in th game to give Berry his gun or not, during the cimimatic battle with Lisa.

John Frochaux (born Juan Sebastian Frochaux, April 15, 1983 in the city of Los Santos, Republic of Panama) is best known as the drummer for the Panamanian punk rock band . At the age of 7 he moved to the United States with his immediate family; this would become the place where he’d learn to play guitar and start his first band “Cannit!”. “Cannit!” played songs that were heavily influenced by Screeching Weasel and The Ramones. The band debuted (without a drummer) in John’s parent’s backyard, in front of a handful of his friends and family the day he turned 12.
Other bands
Since then Frochaux has been involved with several different bands generally playing different instruments in each band; some bands which would include his brother Chris Frochaux; some of those bands are/were The Phonys, (Chris Frochaux on guitar and vocals), Iron Tree Stamina, Paindonor, The Daybreak (Chris Frochaux on guitar and vocals), , , , and [http://myspace.com/ybsm27 YBSM-27 (Hi-Fi Atari Break Dance)]. Originally a guitar player by nature; John’s first recorded performance was at the age of 16 with The Be-Sharps on the record “Take Off”, just 4 months after he started playing drums.
He continues to work with and considers them to be "a pretty functional family".
EagleAttack
Frochaux also runs an independent graphic design and marketing workshop called EagleAttack Design, Co.
