Well, thanks for the input guys.
I'm sorry if this kind of stuff gets repetitive. That is what happens when you are around these places for a long time instead of just passing by, I guess.
My interest was spiked yesterday when I saw these newer (newer to me) gun options were out there.
I did my own research.. read some reviews, watched some videos... There is only so much searching you can (or want to do) before you want to ask detailed questions for answers you are specifically after.
So, for seeming to post repetitive questions... I don't feel bad.
Like the comment made about not being able to use gun sights and have to rely more on the on-screen cross hairs. That is exactly the kind of information I am looking for. In the reviews and videos I was looking at.. it was hard to really determine this.
Basically the gun works best when kept stationary like on a pole... just pivoting the gun up/down/left/right... If you move your body & gun or have it moving around at different heights or drifting around the room... the calibrations still will get off.
Exactly the info that I am after.
I don't want to order something for $100+ and have unrealistic expectations. I love to know what I am buying and what I am in for.
I think since I have most of what I need already - I am going to try doing the wii remote/gun option first. Playing on a 40" lcd, and where I would stand with the gun would be back about 5' from the TV, as my CP is huge. That should be back far enough from the sensor I would think that aiming would be kind of accurate. I will see how that goes, then determine if I want to spend more and try an aimtrak or something else.
