      Back when I was a kid I only got to play area 51 a handful of times in arcade and once on ps1 but with controller(definitely can't touch light gun gameplay lol). But I did buy the ps1 big box time crisis. Played the absolute shit out of that game...could get 100% accuracy the first few stages. And that was before taping a laser pointer along the top rail... calibrated to the dot
      Few months ago got my gameroom mostly set up...good ol 27" toshiba back in use. And just recently found TC Project Titan at local game store. Still haven't played it though, had a rough day today and wanting to unwind...saved it for today...
      Happy lightgun shooting:)

    I absolutely LOVE the Die Hard 2 levels in Die Hard Trilogy. My pathetic gaming crowning achievement is beating it using an original controller with the d-pad. If you guys ever run across a Mad Catz Fazor it’s well worth picking up. Very light & feels awesome in the hand. Plus it came with swappable ends so that it could be used with a PS1 or Saturn.

  • @edwardbennett7125

    I think you can use a regular PS1 controller as the floor button for Time Crisis. Give it a go. I don't think it matters what button you press with your foot.

    • @jeremygalloway1348
      @jeremygalloway1348 Рік тому +6

      Damn that cracked me up. Thinking of my ps1 controller on the floor and my nasty big toe pressing buttons to duck/reload lol.
      I had a laser pointer taped to my original guncon so I had aim assist for t crisis and point blank. Until my cousin told me that's probably not a good idea because it might burn out individual pixels on my 27" Toshiba back in the day. Not sure if that's accurate but my TV never failed and is still used to this day.
      Really really miss those times...better days!

    Cool vid guys. There is another game by Namco called Ghoul Panic. Its similar to Point Blank and was in the arcades as well. Not a lot of people know about it. I believe it only came out on PS1 in PAL regions. I have a copy myself. Its worth checking out if you're a fan of the Namco arcade party shooters. 😊

      Unfortunately ntsc-U/C players can't utilize a PAL CRT TV in North America without quite a lot of power source finagling and even then it's not likely going to work.
      .....Was frustrated to read about a sequel to PS1's Jesse James - a character from the North American - having a PAL territory sequel release supporting lightgun on the PS2 but North America didn't.

    I feel this is a genre of game that many people overlook for the most part. So this was a fantastic watch guys. Hope to try out some of these games at some point. So many great pointers and things to do in the start up to beginning to collect and play some very fun games. I will admit this is not a genre I'm too familiar with outside of the arcades, but having that experience at home is just an incredible thing that is a possibility, closest I think I've come is the gun controller for the Cabela's games on PS3/Xbox 360. Another incredible watch, always such entertaining, and informative content from you guys, keep up all the amazing work. #Roadto21k - I think a continuation of this for the PS2 (and even into the PS3) would be great. Cheers boys.

    Some of the flat CRT televisions have issues in the corners with games. Go curved tube, not flat.
    Got to say the Logic 3 Predator 2 light gun is my favorite light gun. Fits great in the hand , works on PS1, PS2, and Sega Saturn. Very accurate. Has lots of nice features, Foot pedal, and Rumble. Works with Justafier games and Guncon Games.
    Elemental Gearbolt is an amazing game! Great soundtrack, and the score system is very unique.
    Looking forward to the Saturn and PS2 episodes.

    I noticed a lot of people want to get into retro light Gun gaming, but getting a CRT TV is to big of a hurdle for them. CRT TV's are heavy , bulky and can be an all around pain in the ass. But you don't have to go that big.. I have a 15 CRT TV that I play light Gun games on and it's great. I just bought an old 17 monitor that works great as well. I love these old 15 to 20 inch TV and monitors. They are lite weight and very easy to move place to place. They are also cheap and easy to find. So don't let getting a CRT TV stop you from getting into retro light Gun games. And trust me, the PS1 and PS2 have the best light Gun games of any consoles.👍🤩

  • @Septer_Sever
    @Septer_Sever 2 роки тому +1

    Yeah, the reason the Guncon is so accurate is because it pulls sync from the composite line. Also, there is some really dope microswitch mods for the Guncon family that makes it feel even more like the arcade. I keep a PS1 with an optical drive emulator exactly for games like Elemental Gearbolt. Dope game, but I don't think I'll ever own a physical copy (albeit a miracle) All the Point Blank games are money, too!

    Time Crisis started my love for light gun games about a year ago! I've since gotten light guns and a bunch of compatible games for NES, Saturn, PS1, and PS2.
    Resident Evil Survivor for PS1 supports the GunCon in the Japanese and European versions, but not in the North American version (there is a patch online that restores it).
    Japan got Gunvari Collection + Time Crisis, a PS2 compilation of Point Blank 1-3 and Time Crisis 1 all on one disc! It's about $35-$40 nowadays, quite a bit cheaper than getting all four games individually. A neat perk I found was improved load times for Time Crisis over the original PS1 disc (can't speak for the Point Blank games). I was a little disappointed, though, to find out it only supports the GunCon 2, instead of both the GunCon 1 and 2.

    Man this video couldn't have came at a better time for me, just recently scored a GunCon 1 with Time Crisis 2 and 3, and I already have a nice trinitron that is lightgun compatible. Was really looking to jump in to the PS1 era because I had never heard of several of these, and definitely didn't know the Justifier came to PS1. You guys should definitely make a PS2 light gun guide, I can always trust your guys opinion especially after this recent House of the Dead remake, everyone else I watched really overhyped the Switch port where you guys delivered the truth.

    I wanted to add that if the pedal isn't working, reviews for that thing have been horrendous for it not working, pick up a steering wheel that plugs into the controller port, not USB if using a PS2.
    For Gun Fighters, in particular, & probably Time Crisis, haven't tried it, you can put a racing wheel in controller port 2 & use the pedals as your "action" button.
    I use a Mad Catz MC2 for my PS2 setup. I don't think it works for the PS1 itself but for PS1 played on PS2, works great.

      I'll add that some PS1 games do not work on the PS2. But alot of the games do work, for example Spyro the Dragon for instance, there's been alot of games that were unsupported on the PS2 for various reasons, but it is what it is...

    Great episode dudes! I had loaned my Elemental Gearbolt to a friend back in 99' and his house was robbed. Then I was stupid enough to trade in a big box Point Blank 1 for probably a PS2 game. . . 😩

    Just a quick note - if you’re playing PS1 light gun games using two linked consoles/two CRT TVs, then you’ll need to use original PS1 consoles.
    The PS2 can play all the games, but the PS2 iLink cable can’t emulate a PS1 serial cable.

    I think my personal favorites are Time Crisis and Lethal Enforcers. I tried getting into Elemental Gearbolt, but I couldn't, it's just too dark and depressing for a light gun game. Project: Horned Owl was okay, though. And I prefer Area 51 over Maximum Force, at least that one had a final boss battle, while Maximum Force did not.

  • @myretronation

    I had a Konami Justifier back in the day, played the heck out of Area 51, Project: Horned Owl, Die Hard Trilogy, and Lethal Enforcers I & II
    This was 1-2 years before Namco released the GunCon
    I hope Sinden releases a wireless gun with a PlayStation (or even Saturn) port one day
    A friend of mine had two Stunners for his Saturn, which was great for dual gun gameplay on Virtua Cop

    So I just picked up a PS1 light gun for super cheap to get started on PS1 light gun games. Its a Nuby brand called The Heater, it is shaped like the Guncon 1 but dosn't have the AV plug on it just the PS1 plug. It also has a tun of other buttons on it. Would you say that it probably only works with Justifier games? I just saw a box version of the gun and on the box it says it is not compatible with Guncon games except if you get the light gun foot pedal to convert it. Very intersting.

      There are some flat screen CRT's that have troubles, but it's hit or miss. It's usually because of geometry issues and the guns get less accurate as you start shooting closer to the edges of the screen. My Sony WEGA will work, if the game has the option to calibrate.
