Title: Is there any traditional/old school light game for the latest consoles/VR/PCs?
Post by: mickael28 on September 08, 2018, 06:19:00 am: I've been playing my Light Gun Games for Wii, PS2 and PS3 recently (Time Crisis, Ghost Squad, House of Dead, etc), do you know if there is any similar or good game of that style for the new generation consoles: PS4, Xbox One or any VR system/PC that you could recommend?

Thinking if it's worth buying a new console/system, but I've not heard anything about traditional/old school light games for them :S

But yes there are a few for the PSVR.

Farpoint is amazing.

Thanks, I didn't know most of those titles, it seems that a PS4+VR might be worth at some point then for this genre...
