Light gun games on PS2 is where it's AT! One of the reasons why I started seeking out CRT's is because of the light gun games. Now I've got 8 CRT's stashed away in every nook and cranny of the house...it's borderline sick. Some great editing there Robert! The PlayStation 2 outro at the end was a nice touch.

Light gun games are already niche, but we're going even deeper. There is a reason to have the fat model (only some of the early ones) of PS2 for light gun games, and it's that port next to the USB ports called the S400 port (the model you guys showed has it). If you have 2 PS2s with that port, two copies of the game, two CRTs, and an i-link cable, you can play system link on Time Crisis 2, Time Crisis 3, and Vampire Night (plus some other non-lightgun games like TimeSplitters 2, Unreal Tournament, and the Armored Cores) so that you can both play on your own screen while playing coop, which for Time Crisis 3 is pretty much required because they put your viewpoints side by side, so unless your TV weighs 400 lbs, you can't see shit haha. Great video guys, I hadn't heard of that MadCatz gun before I'll have to check it out. Light-gun games were most of what I would play in the arcades so finding out I could have them at home was a game-changer. Plus, the games and guns are cheap, and if you don't have a CRT I guarantee you can find someone who will just give you their old one.

I have the slim PS2 and 2 MadCatz Blasters. For PS2 games, you only need to plug in the USB portion. I discovered this while playing Time Crisis 2, if you plug in just the traditional controller port and are in GunCon1 mode, you have less buttons to work with (check the button configuration menu) if you plug in just the USB and are in GunCon2 mode, you get to utilize all the other buttons on the MadCatz Blaster. I know MadCatz gets a bad rap, but the blasters get the job done.

I would say that my nicest items are Silent Scope Complete on OG Xbox and Confidential Mission on Dreamcast. Of course i found all the important games like House of the Dead, Time Crisis, Dino Stalker, Vampire Night, etc… I think that the many Rail Shooters of the Wii can fall into that « light-Gun » category, even though the technology is different, the feeling is the same!

I took the plunge and looked for a mas catz blue blaster and I had one on my watch list. Then OH NO! Someone bought it, and then I couldn’t find any others on eBay! Then magically the gun was RELISTED! So I took the plunge and bought it. It’s coming next week. Is the dreamcast light gun worth it?

I wish they make a gun that has the slide moving back and forth like the actual Time Crisis gun. So far all of these feels like toys.

@@GamingOffTheGrid only halfway there (GC1 level compatibility) but the Innovation Jolt gun (super jolt) has a foot pedal and a slider with kickback, but sadly won't work on the TC PS2 titles as they shifted to GC2. Also super expensive now a days. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mLF3ddyptdWyoX0.html

I read through the comments, did anyone mention that you can plug a controller into the appropriate port and in time crisis 2 at least all the buttons on it map out as a pedal, so step on controller for pedal function edit: while the guncon 2 is connected

Hey guys I love your videos. Please make video about PS1 games uses mouse. And PS2 mouse and keyboard to play unreal tournament and the most important is play Silent scope using mouse

@@GamingOffTheGrid it's complicated, Ps1 mouse can be used on PS2 to play PS1 games on it, and you must use ps plug mouse. On PS2 you can use any wired mouse or wired keyboard with usb plug, no need for original. And you can play many ps2 games on it but not ps1 games. I tried to play time crisis and didn't work. Unreal tournament yes and half life yes. Silent scope trilogy yes And many others are compatible and hope you can show the compatible games list. I have links that shows it but maybe you can get more list. On PS1 with mouse I played quake and red alert, time crisis doesn't work. Took me so much time to investigate this.

Also another fun light gun game for two players is starsky and hutch. Not so fun one player, but two player can be great. One person drives and the other shoots. You can use a wheel and a light gun or just a controller instead of the wheel.

You can actually use a PS1/2 controller on Time Crisis as a pedal lol! Wouldn't recommend stomping on it but it's fun if you're sitting on the couch gently pressing the buttons with a toe 🤷♂️ Not sure if that works with the PS1 Time Crisis games but I just tried it with TC3 the other day.

On a bit of a tangent: I bought some NES zappers that don't work on the Hyperkin. I don't have an original Nintendo to test them on that. I'm wondering if I should get an original Nintendo or a Hyperkin zapper.

Correction: A Sinden Lightgun does NOT cost $400, it costs $96 ($152 for the recoil version) before shipping. I own one and extremely happy with it. its true the ultimate best experience is playing with original hardware on CRT monitors, but not everyone has space for the whole setup. so the sinden lightgun gives a very good solution and works extremely well.

Hi guys im new to your channel and just subscribed . Thanks for the videos. I'm a huge fan of light gun games and the arcades were amazing in the late 90s early 2000. Played alot of time crisis 2 and hotd 2 and crisis zone . I have 3 crt tvs. 2 portable and 1 atleast size 32. And a playstation 2 fat and slim. I mostly go on the ps2 slim. I never tried the mad catz blaster. I live in the UK so will see if I can get one. I already have g con 1 and 2. Personally I think house of the dead 1 Is the best light gun game ever but time crisis is my child hood. Vampire night is great and I go on it alot by sega and Namco. I only played end game once and never went on it again. Have a nice drink. I will be looking for more crt tvs. Maybe sony next.
