Post by: Brandon697 on April 01, 2007, 06:30:26 pm

Does anybody have any info on that gun? LINK: http://erealgames.com/products.php

Started another thread a while ago.  No positive feedback about their other products and you will probably not see any feedback until the new gun is released. IF EVER.

Do you think I should hold out til atleast mid summer see if they stick to the 2nd Quarter 2007 release, or should I look for a set of guns that are already out, if so which?

You could be waiting for a long time and if it does come out there have not been any favourable reviews of their previous gun.    I think the 2 choices right now are the EMS LCD Top Gun and the Act Labs gun.     The EMS can be used on any TV or even LCD screen and the Act Labs gun you have to choose either  a TV version or a CRT version.  It does not work with LCDs. There is a long Top Gun tread Link Here (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=48982.0) as well as a review at RetroBlast.

Previous RGT G1 was: Expensive, Bad experience playing,  and of course......Wireless   :laugh2:

Even that..... they ignored my E-mails for Tech-Support.

In my opinion....the "RGT FIREHAWK" Is better on its Webpage than in the market.


LCD TOP GUN manufacturer always replied my E-mails at full-speed....Its product is Fabulous working on larger distances With any kind of screens. (In PC is perfect thanks to SMOG´S DRIVER)


ActLabs: Is Perfect for CRT Televisions, and playing near the Screen (A shame for the expensive price)

VERY HIGH RECOMMENDED: LCD TOP GUN

I bought the LCD topgun about a month ago.  Here are my thoughts:

Pros:
accruated
no flash screen
many buttons to program

Cons:
needs long distance
the material is cheesy
The manual is retarded. :)

I'm trying to buy one more so I can play 2 player games with it.. since there are not many choices out there..
