 old game better graphics June 6, 2008
this game was ok but nothing inovative about it and got bored of playing it after a couple of times. i bought it for 49 dollars on a GB special and got about my money's worth back as a tradin at a local buy sell and trade store. overall atleast i didn't waste my money on it.
 It would be Good if it was a $60 game But $80 is too much April 6, 2008
This game is a port of an arcade game. One of the features is the included light gun that requires a ugly tangled mess of wires and a sensor array that you have to hang on top of your television. It takes about 5 minutes of setup to play this game if you don't like ugly crap hanging off your HDTV. The light gun and the sensor bar each also take up a usb port on your ps3. Now once you get this mess of a device set up you can begin playing the game.
The Guncon has an number of analog sticks and buttons on it for switching to the different weapons, and a button for reloading and hiding. I found holding the second handle to be uncomfortable for long periods, and you left handed shooters are out of luck. This is a bad un-ambidextrous design for the gun. The game itself is pretty fun, but just simply mucks up the fun with having one button to switch between the different guns you may carry. I really like Time Crisis 1 and 2 much better due to the simplicity of weapons and not having to deal with an uncomfortable posture holding this gun.
There is also a side game that uses the analog sticks to move around like halo, but I found the level design really un inspired. The control scheme sounds great on paper, but do to having to aim with the unergonomic design of the light gun, playing in this mode got tiring after a while and actually hurt my wrist, back and shoulder.
On the bright side, the game itself is pretty good for a light gun game and contains your usual point and kill style of game that you are expecting. Overall the game is a pretty big dissapointment due the the implementation of hard and is way overpriced. If the gun was one handed and didn't feel like I was operating a belt sander I would have scored it better.
Superficial and short-lived. March 23, 2008
If you think that playing this game will fulfill any of your overly nostalgic memories of playing Time Crisis at the local Golfland, then you'd be sadly mistaken. The gun does not seem very accurate, and has somewhat of a lag time between where you aim it on the screen and where the reticle appears. Plus the arcade-shooting portion of the game is very, very short. The added FPS mode is insipid, and feels like it was just tacked on to make this a complete game. All-in-all, just a two-star product. I would only purchase this if Amazon (which is rockingly awesome) had it for about $30 again.
Decent game; not so decent controller... February 22, 2008
I must admit, I'm new to the Time Crisis series of games, but have been a casual fan of light gun games over the years, including Duck Hunt, Area 51, and various others that you find in movie theatre arcades these days. I bought this game during one of Amazon's DotD (deal of the day) promos, so I got it for $39. I'd say it was worth it for that amount, but I would not pay much more for this set.
The game is fun, it's another light gun shooting game. The arcade mode is pretty much a typical light gun game, pretty fun, with variable difficulty and two characters to choose from, so there's plenty of gameplay there. There's also a "Complete Mission" mode that uses the additional controls on the Guncon 3 to make an FPS/light gun hybrid game. It's decent, although the character movement is a bit sluggish, but it is otherwise okay. Don't expect a deep story, it's the same tried and true good guys vs. terrorists that you get in a game like this, but hey, that's what this genre is about, mmkay? The target practice minigames are fun, and one of the only ways you can play multiplayer with only one Guncon.
The game is only half of this package, and I daresay the better part. The other part is the Guncon 3 controller, a lightgun in a series of three that Namco has made over the years for the various Playstation Consoles. This newest addition to the lightgun lineup is different, as it uses a system similar to the Nintendo Wii sensor bar to triangulate the position of the gun onscreen. They have to use this method because many modern TV's don't work with the older light guns because of the way that those older guns work by using light from the screen to detect the position of the pointer. The Wii sensor bar seems reasonably accurate to detect the pointing of the Wii remote. The Guncon Sensors are not. It's jittery, inaccurate, and requires constant calibration to get working. It will work, but get familiar with the calibration screen, you'll be using it a LOT.
This is a decent package, with a decent game, not great, but decent, and a sub-par controller. As I said before, if you can get this package for less than $50, it might be worth your while, but don't pay much more for it.
 Time Crisis 4 February 22, 2008
This game is awesome. An innovative way to play a first person shooter with a gun controller. With the guncon 3 it allows you to play this first person shooter with more action adn detail than any other game. I just hope that they bring out more games that are compatible with the gun. The plot is thicker and seems to jut add to the game play. Also the stunning detail and resolution of this game make it the best gun game out thus far. The price was completely worth every penny.
