Anyone ever try this Gaime thing for Time Crisis? I LOVED playing Time Crisis in the arcade when I was a kid, and it would be awesome to get some light guj gaming in on a modern TV at home. That said I’m skeptical of this working as advertised. Anyone pick this up and if so how’s it work?
Howdy yall! I'm an indie developer working on my own Lightgun Shooter, Hot Shot: Robot Attack! I love lightgun shooters and im trying to find a way to honor classic games like Time Crisis and House of the Dead while also putting my own twist on it add a layer of strategy. I still got a lot of work to do, but I'm always looking for feedback. There is a demo currently available on Steam, and if you try it out I'd love to hear what you think!
I'm trying to reach out a bit, both to see what kind of things people like/dislike, and grow a bit of an audience. This is my first major solo project, and while its not perfect, I enjoy making it and I think there are people out there that will enjoy playing it :)

My favorite Light Gun shooter of all time. Such good memories in the Arcades and on the PS2 back in the days.. Still enjoy playing it and play the story / crisis missions ! Playing very well with the GunCon3 on PCSX2 Emulator !

ITALO, rifle stocks and accessories, designed by Arcade Milano, is also available for X-Gunner : https://shop.arcademilano.it/7-x-gunner-lightgun
I recently purchased a set of retroshooter guns to play on a 120" screen but it seems that I would need more powerful IR sensors or even more of them to make it work right, I calibrated them and it feels laggy and jerky.
Would the Sinden work better in this situation? Or other alternatives?
I got Area 51 at a local shop to test it and its shooting is quite accurate. I'm pleased.
I am thinking of getting a xgunner on AliExpress but not sure if that can get past the Canadian customs
Crisis Zone Arcade is finally enjoyable in MAME! (Full 4K/60 Longplay)
I've just uploaded a complete playthrough of the original arcade version of Crisis Zone, and it's amazing how much better this game has become in MAME over the last little while.
For years, Crisis Zone was one of those arcade games that technically worked, but it was hard to recommend because of performance issues and inaccurate light gun input. Thanks to recent improvements to MAME, that's no longer the case. The game now feels much closer to how it was meant to be played.
I still think Crisis Zone is one of the most interesting entries in the Time Crisis series. Instead of using the iconic foot pedal, Namco gave players a ballistic shield and a fully automatic machine gun, making it feel like its own unique experience rather than just another Time Crisis sequel.
One thing I mention in the video is that, as much as I love the arcade version, I still think the PS2 release is the definitive way to play it. Namco didn't just port the game—they expanded it with exclusive stages, bosses, and a Special Story Mode that adds a huge amount of extra content.
Huge thanks to Tovarichtch for the recent improvements to Namco Super System 23 emulation in MAME, and to the entire MAME team for continuing to improve arcade preservation.
Here is a sneak peek at our upcoming light-gun roguelite, Blunderbusted: Guns Out, Bluns Out! We are looking to enter Early-Access by the end of September, with our full-release planned on Halloween this year!
Kindof a banger honestly, I think someone else ended up with this thing down the line?

Howdy all, in all transparency I am Blamcon (hence the name), we've been doing 3D printable light guns for a while with over 26 models and counting. Just wanted to share the features in our new release.
We're a little prop shop in Canada so everything we do is hand made, we also give away the models and plans for anything we put in our shop as well as our firmware/software is all free. Just trying to bring back light guns and have a little fun.
Any cool features you would like to see? Anything we bring out is free for everyone.
