She's the computer in the Ishtar Collective's vault, the one who keeps talking to Dr. Shen. I think she also does some of the announcements in the Tower.

yeah, i knew she was already in the game, but the AI is done with an accent, and the tower announcements are background filler. There are some lines from Eris that really sound like her, and others that do not. Would be nice to have her in the game in a substantial way. Hopefully, as the series progresses, the other voice talent will get used more as well.

There are some pretty crazy loading mechanisms out there that involve rounds twisting around and moving along odd paths. Just look at the P90:

(despite the computer animation, the P90 is a real gun, and that's really how it operates)

I get what you're saying. At a glance, the space seems too constrained. But there are ways it could work, even with present-day technology limitations. Also, it might be that centuries of advancement have allowed for smaller bullets.

I'm looking forward to seeing them tie everything together this time around.

considering that its a mid-range rifle, there really isn't enough space for a round to travel up through the grip. unless.....space magic.

"Many years of loving craftsmanship went into the design and construction of this brutal tool of mayhem, I hope you can appreciate that. I won’t waste my time trying to explain the loading mechanism to you — your primitive mind could never grasp its complex nature."

I assumed Durandal just teleported rounds into the chamber :-p

I'd gathered that much, it's just that the magazine (at least the bottom) looks enormous, so it never appeared as though there was enough room for any sort of bullet to travel behind the grip.

Not sure how to embed it, but it's on youtube now.

Thank you for that. The GameInformer player wouldn't go past 6 seconds for me after 10 tries reloading over the course of the morning!

to embed, you take the video string (seen after ?v=, so in this case just 6saWAcGizxU) and put that between youtube opening and closing tags.

That should turn into something like this:
