Lethal enforcers 2 wallpaper6/16/2023 ![]() The tone of the game was changed and much more humour introduced. Overkill was a bit of a departure from the traditions of this series. This is one of your best choices for playing these two versions. They made it to virtually every platform but the wii was one of the last and when you are emulating it, you have great options to further improve the graphics. If you like light gun games then you already know about the House of the dead games. This is one of my go to light gun games and right up there with my top picks for your collection. The Wii version captures some of the best features of games like Time Crisis and Virtua cop but adds better graphics and brings replay ability with multiple paths, hidden objectives and customization. Ghost Squad is hands down one of the best Light gun games on any platform. Nowadays though with emulation and light guns that work well, you can take those games and make them even better. The Wii Motion controllers offered a way to play shooting games that was close enough to light gun mechanics to be fun even if it wasn’t really the same. The Nintendo Wii represents one of the best catalog of shooting games on any console. I eventually bought it on the playstation because I thought it would save me money over pumping coins into the arcade machine! This and Point Blank were my favourites growing up. I’d played Duck hunt on the NES earlier but I started playing this in the arcades and got hooked. Time Crisis – Time crisis was the game that got me hooked on light gun games.The instructions are all in the pcsxr link above but there is very little tinkering required to get it running well. Not only does the PSX have a great selection of games but its also one of the easiest to get up and running with emulation. If you know differently then please let me know in the comments and I will reply/ update this article. That’s the only one that has consistently managed to get light gun games working with. A lot of people would point to ‘better’ ps2 emulators as there are others that may be faster etc. I personally use the pcsxr emulator, again with the nuvee plugin to set up the light gun input. I had so many great times playing that over the years that it’s great to get it up and running again. It had my all time favourite light gun game which was Point Blank. The PS1 (or PSX) is a close second for me. Other PS2 light gun games worth mentioning: Those games were all only available on the PSX so it’s good to have them all in one disc but there is absolutely nothing different from the psx versions so not really any advantage if you have them for that. This Disc contained all 3 Point Blank games as well as Time crisis. The game contains both Virtua Cop and Virtua Cop 2. This is a great collection and the only way you can play Virtua Cop on the playstation. TIme Crisis 3 is my favourite of the bunch but the others are good too. The Time crisis games are some of the best light gun games and always worth a look. Time Crisis II, Time Crisis 3 and Time Crisis: Crisis Zone Oh yeah, and The Virtua Cop games are among the original and definitive light gun games that helped form the genre so they are an essential addition to any collection. Add to that that they are easy to set up (once you know how) on the pcsx2 emulator and it makes for a perfect combination. There are not that many options for playing the virtua cop games and so having both 1 and 2 in one place is really convenient. The ports are very close to the arcade originals but also include some other fun modes and training games. Click the link for full instructions on getting set up.įirst off, my personal favorites: Virtua Cop: Elite EditionĪs far as I am concerned,this is the absolute best way to play the virtua cop games. You can play ps2 games on the pcsx2 emulator using the nuvee plugin. The playstation 2 probably had some of the best light gun games ever and it came with probably the best light gun in the form of the GunCon 2. The order is more to do with my preference of games and systems than anything else, reflecting my personal opinion of the best systems first If you have a different opinion or if you would like other games considered then I’d love to hear it in the comments. If you would like anything added to it, particularly when new games become playable then please let me know in the comments and I will update it. It will be a work in progress as I add each system and should keep evolving as new games come out especially in the Arcade section. This list is not intended to be a complete list of all light gun games (that is available elsewhere – This wiki page is an excellent starting point or that although it is missing a lot of arcade titles: ), but rather a list of what I consider to be the best games from the original consoles that work well in current emulators.
