um, here's what I know ...
there are 3 types of arcade guns : positional guns, light guns that flash the screen and light guns that use some sort of IR or UV light to track the cursor ...
I though Jurassic park was a positional gun, but that's just from playing it on mame, not an arcade. Now that I check it has lightgun inputs, not joystick axes. And since the cursor moves around freely, too, and the screen doesn't flash constantly, it's got that weird kind of tracking on it.
The problem with PC lightguns in the "hold down the trigger and spray games" is NOT that they flash the screen (play Time Crisis III ... even my somewhat epileptic friend was fine, and the screen flashes like heck when you use the machien gun)
The problem is that they only shoot once. You'll have a very hard time playing games that expect you to be able to autofire.
(I mentioned a hack on this ... getting MAME to output a pulse [keyboard LED or similar] each time a gun is normally queried for data ... which would shoot off the Act-labs gun and get positional data for you ... apparently no one liked it. I think it'd be worth a try using a similar idea with those special drivers for T2 that 1-Up has on his website)
To answer your ACTUAL question, right now it's positional guns only for autofire games. But lightguns still feel nicer and aim better for single-shot games. Because who wants a gun that's posted to the panel when you can go wild in Area51. You decide if it's worth $40.
