You review such interesting and forgotten games, its a blessing Ive found your channel. The script, storytelling, background information and gameplay is just top tier and there are not many channels that compare.
Whoa! I used to play this all the time in a local arcade, albeit under the USA release's "Police 911" title. I had a marathon session once and could barely walk the next day because I did at least three hours worth of squats while taking cover during gameplay. Forget leg day - just put someone in front of one of these cabinets and let 'em go! It surprised me how well the motion tracking worked in the arcade though - it was very responsive from what I recall. Cool presentation, excellent control gimmick, and a fun game to top it all off. Thanks for covering it and bringing back memories, and I'm glad they at least tried to make a somewhat faithful home version. (Also, I'd love to see you tackle From Russia with Love on the PS2 sometime. Sean Connery's last role as Bond was always a favorite of mine as a kid. I'd like to think the game held up well enough.)
Holy shit, i never knew they made a console port of Police 911! This always got stuck in the back of my head as one of the weirder Konami arcade games alongside the Thrill Drive series. Never got a chance to play them back in the arcade days due to being too young.
@@minimme Considering that series might've been where the Burnout devs might've gotten inspiration to start their own franchise, ohhhhhhh yeah I'm with you there. Its a crying shame none of its games got ported.
Really goes to show what the industry was trying to get at with these kinds of motion control games. If the latency wasn't so high it would almost feel like playing SUPERHOT VR, only a decade and a half early. Konami probably had a ton of fun coming up with this. Thanks so much for putting the effort in to track down and play it!
Holy shit, I remember playing this as a kid at a shopping mall here in Argentina. Funnily enough it was the Japanese cabinet, so it was this super exotic thing for everyone.
Its so funny to me that you used a Creative webcam for this game. I used to work in that company and we had ancient products like that laying around at one of the floors of the office building. It was basically a dumping ground for either old, abandoned, or unreleased products. I swore i could have seen this camera sitting somewhere in the office. What a throwback, i didn't even know it can be used like this!
It's kind of surreal how despite the low resolution textures, that opening area is instantly recognizable to me as Little Tokyo in downtown LA. I wonder if they used photo scans to build the environments.
@@sukhoifockewulf The aesthetic is kind of weird. It's very 1990s, completely different from most other PS2 titles in terms of style and technology. Even if we compare it to other contemporary attempts at photorealistic real cities using photo textures, like the Getaway, it clearly looks much older and lower fidelity. It does have a certain low-tech charm though.
I love this game it's so cool. It's unironically my Mom's favorite arcade game, she found it at a Dave and Buster's and was enamored by the body tracking and moving your body to take cover, said if she had the machine at home she'd use it as a workout machine.
Almost thought I was about to start watching a Dank Pods video seeing that Creative 2000s box in the thumbnail. Very “cash converters” looking technology.
the arcade version of this game is legendary. i used to love playing it at the local arcade. Somewhat unrelated but there was a really badass midway arcad third person arena shooter called the grid that used a track ball and joystick for its controls. I guess it came to mind because that era had so many unique control gimmicks, i kind of miss that
I could never find a cabinet of this game that worked properly sadly. I saw it everywhere but it was always in bad shape. These machines must be expensive to upkeep.
Like a lot of Eye Toy games it’s a good idea in principle but… I suspect if you could place your heavy CRT at arcade cabinet hight it would improve things a bit but the input lag from the camera will always be an issue. It reminds me of light-gun style on-rails shooters on the Wii. BTW panicked noncombatants trying to run through the fire zone is a real thing both military & police services have to deal with, not quite to the extent they do in games like this but still, it happens. Interesting video, thanks.
This is EXACTLY the kind of weird PS2 game that I'm after! :D You make me want to get a game I've never heard of before, convincing me in a mere 1 minute 42 seconds. Side note: the beard looks cool, much better than having just the moustache.
Thank you for doing a video on this. I used to play this in the arcade back in the day and loved it. But it was a total leg workout. Always wondered about the PS2 port we never got in the States.
Police 911! What a classic. When I was a kid, my dad would take me to a local arcade that had this cabinet there. This was the ONE game I could get him to play. He loved it.
I played this in an arcade and I do remember me having to dodge and weave real hard. and I had to take this half crouching thing and my legs was sore for a day after that lol. but it is pretty fun.
what an interesting concept for a rail shooter., especially for one released in the early 2000's. I think the only analog for something today is vr rail shooters.
The Police 911 arcade game actually works really well and is a lot of fun. Surprised they were willing to attempt a console port of the game. This and the OG Silent Scope with the full rifle are my two favorite arcade games ever.
Holy shit you unlocked a lost memory for me. I totally remember playing this game at the arcade when I was kid. Had no idea it had a home port, super interesting
The narration in the intro movie to the game sounds like an English-speaking Japanese voice-over artist doing a remarkably good impression of John Bunnell, the former Multnomah County sheriff turned TV host best known for his voiceovers on World's Scariest Police Chases (later renamed to World's Wildest Police Videos). John Bunnell's voiceover talents were even used in a World's Scariest Police Chases videogame, for the original Playstation in 2001. I'm not 100% sure that narrator in this intro is not John Bunnell but I think I hear traces of a Japanese accent.
I think I actually played this at an arcade around 20 or so years ago-the ‘Police 911’ version. It felt quite futuristic, being able to physically adjust your position and take cover by the way you move your actual body. Kind of a predecessor to things we commonly do in VR now.
Owned this and have absolutely zero memory of ever playing it, and didn’t realise it was a light gun game. Guessing it also ended up in the CEX pile I sold earlier this year.
It looks like it's made in the late 90s. I find the look charming in a way. This game reminds me of Konami's Thrill Drive. The American city streets reminds me of the USA course, and the car windows are just textures.
The moment I saw a picture of the arcade cabinet I went "ah, that one", even tho I never played on it because it looked hard AF I definitely remember seeing that at an arcade back in the day, but I just played Time Crisis instead. Fascinating that they adapted it to the PS2 back before the console even had an official camera accessory.
man, i remember playing that at the New York, New York Casino arcade in Las Vegas. i might be mistaken, but i feel like they had the sequel at one point, but it wasn’t localized. they also had Mocap Boxing, and i remember enjoying it.
The Keisatsukan 2 is soooo fun in arcades! The motion tracking is sublime & had so much time avoiding & ducking in and out of cover. You can get so into it that you really need to stretch & prepare yourself - it's very easy to cramp up playing it haha It all depends on how well these old arcade machines are kept & maintained, but the one I played in Akibahara was definitely awesome
I know UA-cam is really putting enthuses on thumbnail and titles lately This and the Wii fitness board horror game have been so perfect for your brand!
Konami was just out there trying anything and everything, not worrying about if it made financial sense. At least it gave the impression that they were trying to impress and surprise people. It's funny how as gaming became a bigger market we got less of that. There should be more money to experiment now than there used to be.
Oh man! This really unlocked a memory for me. I used to visit a caravan park near a seaside, they had this in the on-site arcade. Brilliant stuff in the arcade, never knew it got a home port. Cheers!
Yooo I remember playing this at an Arcade a few years ago. It was tight as hell, like a Japanese remake of Heat. Probably the most immersive light-gun games I've played since Crisis Zone!
Ive played the arcade version, it was pretty fun. There was also another game like it but it was about boxing. Instead of taking cover, you were dodging punches. It also had the heaviest damn fake boxing glove peripherals which were also wired. Dunno if its also Konami tho, but considering the cabinet and foot placement mat I sort of figured it was
This makes me want to dig out my VR headset for some Superhot or Half-Life Alyx again… I’ve always loved light gun games, and I wish there would be something like this for VR! I know there are some alternatives, I’ve tried some, but they’ve always fell short of the old school arcadyness I crave :/
This video is AWESOME, thank you - i played the arcade version in like 99 or whenever here in the UK, it was a bit painful xD i had no idea it was on ps2!
Holy SHIT dude I've played that old cabinet before. I totally forgot about it but as soon as I started seeing the mugshot things with the black tape over the eyes it clicked. Next thing you're going to show is going to open my third eye at this rate.
Great video! Police 911 2 is my favorite arcade game, and I now own a cabinet of it. It uses ultrasonic sensors rather than optics and plays flawlessly. I also have a Police 911 PCB, and to me the game feels slightly more clunky than the sequel.
When I first saw the Red Steel trailer, I believed it was real specifically because Police 911 2 had shown me a glimpse of that future. I'd surely be more critical now, but 20 years ago, I found its motion tracking mind-blowingly accurate.
Super novel game and great video! I loooked into light gun shooters a few years back, thought it might be fun to have a setup for one friends come over, but ultimately decided the short game lengths didn't justify the price. Big Time Crisis and House of the Dead fan though!
I recently got an original PSVR and this reminds me of its camera tracking system, especially in cover shooters like Blood & Truth. There are a few games on there I think you'd find interesting actually, it's easily the most minimme-esque VR thing
Back in the early 2000s local arcade/amusement center had the arcade cabinet for Police 911 and an imported cabinet from Japan of the sequel. They were my favorite games to play whenever I went there, but unfortunately they weren't maintained very well and the gun for one of them stopped working. I've always wondered why Konami never released a port for the Wii, or even the PS3 with PlayStation Move and PS Eye support.
Gokudo is one of the many ways of calling the Yakuza in Japan. So the Yakuza clan being named "Gokudo kai" is like if we had to fight the Italian criminal organization, the "Mafia family".
OMG this type of game but entire game-room with soft-floors so you could Johan Wick around ang giant IMAX sized theater for a screen. Somebody needs to make it happen.
The way I imagine the tracking works is that it takes a screenshot of you when you first start the game in the neutral upright position and then probably takes a new low res picture once every 1/30th of a second or so (possibly every 1/60th, though judging by the delay I'd say 1/30th is more likely) then the game runs a depth and edge detection algorithm to break everything down to that simple black and white image where it proceeds to find the difference between that original picture and the "current" picture and then moves the tracking dot correspondingly by trying to stay aligned with the closest approximate white color value above a certain point in the picture relative to where the highest white value is currently located in the image which is why it doesn't stay perfectly centered on your forehead and the tracking dot kind of sways back and forth from side to side on your head depending on the direction of lean. I could go into more detail as to why the game works better closer than further (which likely has to do with the capture resolution and depth detection issues relative to that) but I think I've said enough to give you a general idea.

'The Justifier' is such a beast name for a peripheral. You'd feel like a god holding that tacky green plastic in your hand.
The name fits the sega genesis gun like a glove
I am holding one, and I do.
You gotta see the video of Liebermann holding one in front of the US Senate.
@@Nandru85 The big blue six-shooter? That thing was fkn badass 😂 Lethal Enforcers was my _jammm_
I got the Japanese version, it's called the "hyper blaster".

I actually do remember playing Police 911 in a local arcade. During your intro, that is what I immediately thought and it turns out I was right, haha.
I actually remember playing this in a pizza place. It was so weird. I didn’t even know this port existed.
My brain seeing this drop into my feed:
It’s a minime video that has “PS2” and “webcams” in the title…how could this *not* be amazing?
Its so funny to me that you used a Creative webcam for this game. I used to work in that company and we had ancient products like that laying around at one of the floors of the office building.

I played this in the arcade as a kid and the main thing I remember is that it tricked me into doing squats and my legs hurt for days.
my little chubby self when I was young would get all sweaty playing this in the Arcade.
I love seeing videos on obscure old games like this. Thanks man!
A re-release or spiritual successor that retains this camera control scheme would be awesome, I'd imagine this having no delay with modern tech
That really was a sick camera unboxing video
I love this game it's so cool. It's unironically my Mom's favorite arcade game, she found it at a Dave and Buster's and was enamored by the body tracking and moving your body to take cover, said if she had the machine at home she'd use it as a workout machine.
Wait until she discovers Dance Evolution

This game was basically the reason I went to CiCis pizza. I think it also had a SWAT based sequel, that or I'm thinking of something else.
Oh man I loved Cici's as a kid. Still remember that delicious dessert pizza.
Terrible pizza but a sweet arcade. Mine had Crusin the world
We have the same wooden dining chairs in our house
Turns our minime wasn't so mini to play this game properly.
Cool video. We had Police 911 in a local arcade. It was difficult and exhausting, the motion sensing wasn’t great as you demonstrated.
This game is pretty cool and interesting. Just as this video and entire channel. Subscribed!

i love this channel so much
I played this back in the day at an arcade. Ahhh MegaBowl we had some good times...Laser quest was the best there though
I wish Sega, Konami and Namco could port their rail shooters on VR headset.
This should be a PC game. Sitting next to your monitor with webcam on top is how most people use PCs anyway.
You visited the UK! Hope you had fun :D
im impressed with how well it tracked you
The way I imagine the tracking works is that it takes a screenshot of you when you first start the game in the neutral upright position and then probably takes a new low res picture once every 1/30th of a second or so (possibly every 1/60th, though judging by the delay I'd say 1/30th is more likely) then the game runs a depth and edge detection algorithm to break everything down to that simple black and white image where it proceeds to find the difference between that original picture and the "current" picture and then moves the tracking dot correspondingly by trying to stay aligned with the closest approximate white color value above a certain point in the picture relative to where the highest white value is currently located in the image which is why it doesn't stay perfectly centered on your forehead and the tracking dot kind of sways back and forth from side to side on your head depending on the direction of lean.
