KenToad:
The distance is wrong. All the Time Crisis cabs are designed to put your gun at least a foot or two away from the screen.

*edit* I see that you can move the pedal away from the cab to get more distance, so yeah I guess that's going to be necessary.

Tarma:
A small screen that gets split in half for 2 players in Time Crisis? And then player 2 has to use a button on the gun to duck in and out of cover??

I'll be interested to see an actual play video with 2 people. There are a bunch of videos on YouTube of game reviewers showing these off already but all in solo play. I watched a couple and no one mentioned how that was going to work...

It would be fine for the other 3 games, Point Blank and Steel Gunner 1-2 because you share the screen.

Time Crisis is single player only.  Others are dual screen except Crisis Zone which is actually why I won't be getting this...  Two titles in this franchise are single player and they only include one?  Then they add another franchise  that is in no way similar to Time Crisis?  At least Point Blank is fun and uses an optical gun.  Steel Gunner is a "mouse" game.

Tarma:
Doh! I was thinking of Time Crisis 2...thanks Falken Hawke.

And I agree it is a weird mix of games. Point Blank is great but Steel Gunner 1-2 are like Operation Wolf where you just hold the trigger down and fire away so you really want that full-auto feeling.

But from videos like this where they take the guns apart you'll see they are manually / spring operated and only “click” when the trigger is pulled (there is no solenoid) so Steel Gunner will be an exercise in dragging a crosshair around – like you said a “mouse” game.

I think they should have gone with all 2 player games that don't use autofire or the crosshairs; maybe House of the Dead as the lead title and Point Blank 3 and Lethal Enforcers 1-2 as the extras.

Self actuating recoil is like...the most ridiculous thing they could've done
