This, of course, make very little sense as the weapon is clearly ''not'' portable, as shooting the huge weapon requiring tethering it to a generator the size of a house. It seems the developers ''really'' wanted to make a joke here about "giving Nemesis the finger", and sadly, said joke is only in the journal the heroine finds, Jill does ''not'' use this as a [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner]] as she finishes him off.

This is madness!" "No, Maya, [[300|this]] [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!|is]] [[Devil May Cry|SPARDA]]."
* In ''[[No One Lives Forever]]'', the villanous organization is known as HARM. A running gag of the series is that files and characters often refer to what it stands for without ever revealing it to the player.
