Can a PS2 USB gun be used with PC games in a CRT TV?
« on: March 02, 2018, 09:07:47 pm »
Hi,

I was wondering if there's any way to connect my PC to an old CRT TV and use a PS2 g-con 2 USB gun to play games on it?

If it's possible, do you know which software/drivers I would need to give it a go?

Thanks!

I tried for a while last night with much luck, but I was not sure if I was missing anything or it was not possible anyway.

Thanks!

Hi,
You can take a look at these pieces of software
guncon2pc,
topgun driver,
wingun,
gunguncon2,
Each one of them works more or less with advantage and drawback...

Yes you can.
I did it with MAME, Windows XP and Guncon2PC drivers back in the day.
My GunCon2 gun sucked so I quickly abandoned it.

EDIT: Wait, define "PC Games".
