  • Light gun games: when I think of the games belonging to this genre, I tend to think of po-faced classics, like Time Crisis or Virtua Cop. But the true and most varied shooting experience comes from Namco's Point Blank.
    This wacky games offers far more variety than its contemporaries: one minute, you'll be shooting ducks at a pond, then fending off meteorites and then destroying a car. It's absolutely wild.
    And just when you think it can't get any weirder, you start playing the Quest mode in the Playstation 1 version...

    I remember VERY long time ago randomly seeing this game's jacket with those guys on it in a video game store and I couldn't help but think of that enemy from the first rayman with his gun shooting hammers, their faces looks pretty similar.

    The Parodius of Light Gun games. I always thought this RPG/shooter concept would make an interesting spinoff to Wild Arms where you shoot enemy projectiles out of the air while attacking their weak spots a la House of the Dead, perhaps letting you switch ammo types.

    I know the same feeling about finding RPG elements in anything thats not actually an RPG 😂. I know you've already covered it, but in Kirbys Super Star on the SNES when you fight the virus in the cave or w/e mode, it blew my mind the first time 😮.

    Haven't played Point Blank in ages but had a lot more fun with it then I ever did with 'shoot the baddies' light gun games, great game, as long as you don't play it on the ds
    I'm also getting 'If WarioWare was a light gun game' vibes.

      ​@@ivortering7120 Most of the contents from the PS1 version were striped away. You only have Arcade mode and few Freeplay options and it's basically became a glorified "generic touch screen" game. Lack of passion, perhaps.

    Well this game is best known for its minigames anyway. Also lol imagine losing too many agility in the RPG mode and then you move slowly to encounter more enemies. It's gonna be fun i bet!

    Also, wait. If agility tied to walking speed, shouldn't oposite be also true? That sprin-mint. Probably it's the item that increses agility? Just a random guess.

    The first time I saw gameplay for this game was for a maximum score TAS, I then found out that your expected to use the DPAD TO CONTROL THE GUN. God I wish there was an accessory or even compatibility with the PS1 mouse for me to experience the game well.

    I have the DS version of Point Blank, I swear it's a nostalgic feeling that I'm about to take out of the grave, because I found out one of my DS loading wires is still functional. Unlike this slow ass PS cursor, you just aim by touching the lower screen.

    It's stupid? I guess so after seeing what it was.
    ...wouldn't it be better if the characters just asked the assistant "Okay, where can I get one?" Wouldn't it be better if the resulting quest was built on the answer? Assuming you can't just buy a card on the scene, of course, but still!
