This movie generally sucked (IMHO) but whether it was accurate or not, the
style looked very cool, and ever since that movie came out, it seems there
is always a character in my game with a concentration in it.
Anyway, my point is this:
If it looked cool in the movies, and a player wants to use it like it was
in a movie (or any other form of media) then I usually let them in some
form...that goes with just about anything as I like to run a very cinematic
game (lots of two-pistoleers courtesy of John Woo)
Out of curiosity, how many would consider their games "realistic" and how
many "cinematic?"
