Im interested to know what guns will work with mame games and what games are there available i can only really remember terminator 2, pointblank and virtua cop series are these working on mame and are there others? And how would i conect the gun is it as simple as just plugging into a usb port or would mame not recognise etc? Hope im making myself clear sorry if not :-[ Many Thanks Marky |

I'm pretty sure T2, and some of the Operation (Wolf, Bear, Thunderbolt?), and maybe Revolution X used this type of control. These can be played (less realistically) using an analog joystick. They might be able to be played with a lightgun, but that is basically a hack to play the game with improper controls. The other category is true lightgun games such as Area 51, etc. These could be played with a mouse, but really want a true lightgun. For the guns - I think all of the guns also run through the video cable as well as plugging into the USB ports. KevSteele has a review of most of the options at http://www.retroblast.com/reviews/lightgun1.html There is also a lot of WIP going on to add support for the Namco PS2 Guncom 2 to MAME. |
