Support NeoGAF

Hey folks,

I got myself a Sony Trinitron yesterday for my retro gaming itch, it's pretty big with 32".
So I thought, let's dive into some light gun games, but I own only HotD 2 for Dreamcast and that's it.

But I also got a light gun for my PSX, so I am not limited to DC games only.

Please feel free to recommend what you think might be some must-play titles.

3 Games in 1.
Part 1: Third Person Shooter
Part 2: Lightgun Section
Part 3: Drivin Simulator

I think it only works with Namcos Gun Con, not sure. Hard but fun game. Loved the arcade.

Cool and cheesy action game

[SmokedMeat]

Time Crisis 1&2
Point Plank
Vampire Knight

Confidential Mission - Dreamcast

 

[H4ze]

Thanks, will check them all out after work

 

[STARSBarry]

I can still hear that credits music

If you live in Europe, Resident Evil Survivor for PS1. The NTSC version doesn't support lightgun because stupid reasons.

How's your back after carrying that in?

Anyway, as per above Point Blank series has to be my stand out favourite light gun games.

Was thinking of buying a Sinden to scratch the itch on PC

As some people said, Point Blank is awesome. I never knew this, but there's also a Point Blank 2 for PS1.

 

[Mitsurux]

House of the Dead 2 - Dreamcast (Ugh sorry i missed this in you post op)

There really are not that many Light gun games for dreamcast

Death Crimoson OX or 2 if you are able to play imports.

And a Point Blank 3 too



They're all awesome.

PS1

Time Crisis 1
Time Crisis Project Titan
Die Hard Trilogy Die Harder Section
Die Hard TRilogy 2 has rail shooting levels, but not lightgun compatible IIRC
Area 51
Resident Evil Survivor JP/PAL version because NTSC doesn't have lightgun support (Rumor is over columbine which is why the North American release was the last one).

DC

Virtua Cop 2 (Awful lightining effect for each hit though)
Confidential Mission

If you get time crisis look up cheats. I believe on main menu you shoot back and forth between the cross hair and the R. Loved that game as a kid. Would love to play it on VR

 

[EverydayBeast]

I had interest in light shooters the fact that PSVR allows gun accessories is amazing.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Confidential Mission on Dreamcast is a lot of fun!

My back is fine, but god damn do my fingers still hurt, even with gloves, the plastic is a cutting pain in the ass xD but it's worth it.


Thanks to all the recommendations, neogaf best gaf

Oh wow, never heard of this and it looks pretty cool.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Time Crisis is amazing and Die Hard Trilogy Part 2 is really good (but really fucking hard!).

 

[cireza]

There is also a game called Silent Scope. Never played it.

 

[YCoCg]

The Police 24/7 games are a damn work out, easily one of the most fun arcade games.

 

[trikster40]

Oh wow, never heard of this and it looks pretty cool.

It is, it’s got that WD love, actually pretty tough too!

I was about to say this, godlike soundtrack one of the best if not the best on the system!

 

[Ironman_Bad]

When you're done with those if you wanna get a truly mind blowing light gun experience get psvr or quest 2

 

[GladiusFrog]

I need to build a point black cabinet in my home some day, best light gun shooter ever imo.
