Light Gun Games List
« on: January 13, 2010, 12:09:02 pm »
I did a search and couldn't find anything. So, either give me a link to the previous list or add to this one. I'm looking for a list of games that run well on a fast computer in Mame.

It seems the following works fine:
Terminator 2
One of the Point Blank games (which ones work, which ones don't?)
Area 51

What other games are working well? I wouldn't mind House of the Dead and those, but are people using Consoles for that?

pc games such as the HOTD series, Virtua cop 1&2, Die Hard Trilogy and all of the digital leisure (american laser games) such as Mad Dog and all of those. There's several flash based games you can download and play as well. Pretty much any game that normally utilizes a mouse will work.

You listed HOTD 1 and also HOTD Arcade.  Is that a typo or a HOTD game I never heard of?

 I listed it separate as I also have House of the Dead PC installed.
House of the Dead Arcade is just to let me know its the Arcade Version.
( Using M2 Emulator)

I may eventually remove it as the Graphics on the Arcade Version
are Awesome.

What ? No love for Chiller ?   :dunno

I haven't tried them in MAME in years, but the classic Exidy shooters are among my favourites.

Crossbow
Cheyenne
Combat
Crackshot
Chiller
Clay Pigeon
Hit N Miss
Showdown
Whodunit

Working: Not Enough
Projects: Too Many
Progress: None

Is a light gun worth getting for a mame cabinet? I saw some video on youtube of a guy playing time crisis on mame and it was so so so slow. How do the majority of the games work?

Time crisis isn't very playable with MAME yet, so that's a bad example. Mankind just hasn't built a computer fast enough, but give it time...

Many of the light gun favorites from the arcades and consoles are VERY playable with a lightgun, though. Having a lightgun with your MAME cab is a nice addition, IMHO.

My vote goes for the AimTrak: www.ultimarc.com/aimtrak.html
Man, will my cab EVER be finished?

Though, those that would like to play Time Crisis using the AimTrak, get the psxfin emu. To play fullscreen, make sure to set the resolution to 640X480 or your aim will be off. I learned the hard way to get it working fullscreen. I just wish I could get epsxe working. Now that would be nifty.

The PS1 port of TC was pretty well downgraded just to get it on the PS1 though. :(
