why?
anyway, i have house of the dead 2....pc...
and i play in MAME Hoagan's Alley, Duck Hunt, Zero Point, etc

ah. Maddog McCree the game to get the worst rating in PC Gamer magazine history ;D
Score: 6% ithink it was

Ironic as maddog and maddog 2 are probably the best two gun games ever created. They are old school. Pc gamer magazine is a hype-fueled, corporate *censored descriptive I can't say here*, who's reviews have absolutely NO reflection of how the people actually feel about a game.
Maddog is a laser disc game... laser disc games are quirky and old-school. If you don't like that then steer away, but as a whole I don't know how anyone could not have fun playing said games.
I currently have both hotd games and both virtua cop games on my computer. I'll probably add the laser disc collection to the list.

Haven't played much Mad Dog 2 but I agree that (the original) Mad Dog McCree is awesome. Tried the CDi version with gun, but it was a bit poo (although nice graphics). I expect other conversions (PC / Sega CD) are probably worse...
HC: Can you get Virtua Cop/2 to run under XP?? I have both these but can't get them to run (nor PC Virtua Fighter/2)...

Don't ask about downloading 'backups', it's like a rom request - you should have looked after your discs better ;)
You should be able to source a cheap secondhand copy from ebay.

Yeah..... now i had to download the "trouble shooter" to get the gun to work with it but they run fine. Keep in mind that like 6 versions of the game were released though over the course of 3 years. I believe mine is the latest.

Probably explains it, I think I probably had a very early version. Incidentally I didn't get as far as trying the gun, the games just wouldn't run at all :(
