That's not much of a list.  :lol
Whether it is worth it or not depends on how much you like gun games.

Download the AIM-Trak setup guide just above the picture of the board.

All MAME gun games are listed there.

Then you have the PC version of the American Laser arcade games from Digital Leisure:

(find them a lot cheaper on fleabay or elswhere)

Nebulas Model 2 emulator plays House of the Dead, Virtual Cop 1 & 2, Behind Enemy Lines, Gunblade NY, & Rail Chase 2.
(but only 1 player)

Demul plays a half dozen or so including Maze of Kings & House of the Dead 2 if you have a fast PC (don't remember the rest).
(again, 1 player only and integration into a front end can be a PITA)

There are also a bunch of online flash games, but I've never messed with them.

I've been using old Act Labs ray guns for the past year.

I bought an AIM-Trak & a happ recoil gun to install it in, but haven't had time to work on it yet.
If only I could do it at work instead of just hanging out on BYOAC all day. :angel:

You can build aimtraks pretty cheap if you put them in your own shell.  They can be finicky to calibrate, but they work well.  If you are using a LCD screen, they are pretty much your only option other than topguns, and topguns are more pricey and not as good since they require these huge light bars to be mounted to the outside of your cab, and they need to be used at a greater distance.

If you have a CRT, then its either aimtraks or act labs guns, you will find the same isssues with both as far as I know, for example, M2 doesn't work with any 2 guns as far as I know.  

Depends on which gun games you really like.  Duck hunt s good for the nostalgia, but its not really that fun to play.  THe point blank series of games are really fun.  Carnevil doesn't run well unless you have a good rig.  The time crisis games don't run well. HOTD runs in M2, but only one player, and no offscreen reload.  

To me its worth it for the point blank games

mytymaus007:
so far it sounds like a waste of time and money not being cheap but :dunno if there was alot of working and fun games to play it would be nice

Donkbaca:
I think there are more games that are fun to play that use guns than ones that use a trackball, but hey, to each his own!
Area 51
HOTD
Maximum Force
Police Trainer
Point Blank
Point Blank 2
Zero Point
zero point 2
Vs. Duck Hunt
egg venture
who dunit


DarthMarino:
Adding to Donkbacas list:

Terminator 2
Revolution X
Alien 3: The Gun
CarnEvil
Big Buck Hunter (PC)
Operation Wolf 1-3
Lethal Enforcers 1 & 2
Mobile Suit Gundam: Final Shooting
Steel Gunner 1 & 2
Mechanized Attack

NES Light Gun games
SNES Super Scope games

There's plenty of other decent ones too. It's really up to you if it's worth it.  I bought 2 Aimtraks and glad I'm I did.
