Fake Reloading Animation

It's common in games, especially third-person shooters, for the player character's reloading animation to merely mime the motion of reloading, instead of actually doing so.

Concepts

Active Reload

Active Reload is a gameplay concept in which the player can actively decrease the load time of a weapon by timing a button press.
Budget Title

When a game is released at a lower than usual MSRP, and is usually a lesser product as a result
Dust Men

The Dust Men are the second gang you encounter in inFAMOUS. They're under Alden's control, and wear trash bags.
First Sons

First Sons is the third gang that you encounter in inFamous. They are under Kessler's control, and are the most powerful gang in the game.
No Flashlight While Reloading

Many games that take place in dark areas provide the player with a flashlight. If they are going for realism, then the position of the beam depends on the position of the character's arms. This means that the beam does not point straight forward while the character reloads their weapon.
Realistic Magazine Management

If reloading your weapon with a less-than-empty magazine causes ammo to be wasted, you're playing a game with realistic magazine management.
Reapers

Reapers are the first gang you encounter in the game, "InFAMOUS." They are controlled by Sasha, and wear grim reaper-like costumes, never revealing their faces.
Reload

Reloading is the action of replacing the ammunition magazine inside a gun. It adds a touch of realism to most modern shooters, and a certain amount of tension when a player is forced to reload while under fire.
Terminator Reload

Named after the truck chase scene in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, this is the action of reloading a shotgun with only one hand by flipping the gun while holding the lever.
Third-Person Perspective

The player character is seen at a distance from a number of different possible perspective angles. There is generally a movable camera but it can also be in a fixed position. It most commonly refers to a viewpoint behind the player character.
