Title: BEASTBUSTERS: With Gun or don't bother..
Post by: HeadRusch on July 14, 2003, 12:47:51 pm

I can't remember if BeastBusters was a joystick-gun game or a proper optical gun game right now...

Anyone, does anyone know if BeastBuster plays well with the ActLabs guns or no.....

??

Looks like a joystick type gun, same as Terminator2

It is a t2 gun, that's actually a t2 cab.  :)  Midway must have sold the design to third parties after they decided to stop making gun games.  Right after t2 came revolution X with the three gun cp design you see in the beastbuster cab.


To answer your question, analog gun games don't work well with lightguns.  On the other hand it's almost impossible to design a analog gun cp that aims accurately (ask 1up about that one) unless you have the same cp, size screen, ect as the game it came off of.  So you are kinda screwed either way.  :(

...crap....thats not what I wanted to hear.....but...welp, I'll suck it up :P

I had thought of putting an analog stick but mostly for games like Afterburner/II........but that idea is a long way off.

Thx for the update.
