The Desert Eagle was first introduced in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]. However, it was only present in two cutscenes; the first cutscene in the mission [[Supply & Demand]], which [[Ricardo Diaz]] uses to shoot his VCR after it "ate his favourite [[El Burro (GTA III)|El Burro]] movie". Its second appearance was the final cutscene of [[Rub Out]], which [[Lance Vance]] uses to execute Ricardo Diaz, as revenge for killing [[Victor Vance|his brother]] and for attempting to kill [[Death Row|him and Tommy]]. | The Desert Eagle was first introduced in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]].

The Desert Eagle is far more powerful than the other pistols in the game (Headshots with this in GTA IV will release a large cloud of blood from the victim). It holds 7 rounds per magazine (9 in GTA IV) and kills in one shot the majority of the time in San Andreas; it takes 3 or 4 body shots, or a single head shot, to kill in GTA IV. The San Andreas Desert Eagle is modeled after the .50 caliber [[wp:Desert Eagle|Desert Eagle]] (which is considered the 'Classic' Desert Eagle), while the GTA IV version is modeled after the .357 variant. | The Desert Eagle is far more powerful than the other pistols in the game (Headshots with this in GTA IV will release a large cloud of blood from the victim).
