Light guns for LCD/HDTVs
« on: December 22, 2020, 04:59:28 am »
I was just curious to hear what light gun peripherals some of you may be using for older gun games like Duck Hunt, Super Scope 6, Time Crisis, etc. I've come across a device called the "Top Gun" years ago, however its success varies depending on the title; some games like Area 51 work great, while others like Time Crisis 3 don't appear to work at all. Are there any great ones out there that maybe I overlooked?

Most of the old guns were made for crt screens, and won't work on lcd screens sadly.
Only the duck hunt gun was ever able to be used in some way because it's very limited.
For lcd screens the best current solutions are guns like the Sinden, and mine here;
