Anyone have any inkling how common Time Crisis: Project Titan for the PS1 is? I'm inclined to believe that its fairly rare, considering that I'd never seen it until a week ago, and I don't see it pop up all that often on ebay. On the other hand, I've scored 2 NIP copies of the game, complete with Guncons, recently.

Related to the Guncon, what PS1 games use it? I know of Time Crisis, Time Crisis: Project Titan, Point Blank 1, 2, and 3, and Elemental Gearbolt (I think that was the title). Are there any others?

In similar happy news, I found a pristine copy of RPG Maker for the PS1 for $15. I'm glad that I decided against trying to get one off ebay for $35.

Cool. I have found the losing formula on this site. All I have to do to be ignored is post about PS1 games!

Does my above post actually have the complete list of PS1 Guncon compatible games? I'm missing Point Blank 1 and 2 and Elemental Gearbolt and wondering if there were any others I missed.

I must have ALL the Guncon games! Muahahahahahaha!

I'll be honest Gabriel, I don't own a Guncon or any of the Guncon games. Then again, I haven't bought a light gun and/or any light gun games on purpose for consoles other than NES or SMS. Well, I did pick up a light gun game for SNES since it was CIB mint for $1, but I still don't have the Super Scope 6 to play it with. I don't think the Point Blank titles or the gun itself are rare though, because I still see these new at the Mega Mart here in Omaha. Other titles, I can't say.

Project Titan could become a rarity because it's a POS.

I have a similar situation. Somewhere around here I have the Super Scope pack in game. But I don't have the Super Scope. It doesn't really matter though, the SNES I currently have isn't mine. I may need to grab one from GameStop sometime soon.

Of course, that makes me wonder something. What was the less supported gun, the SNES Super Scope or the Genesis Menacer?

[MegaManFan]

The Genesis +has+ a light gun?
I think that answers your question.

i dont think the menacer had any games released for it other than the 6-in-1. But Konami did have a Genesis version of the Justifier that worked with Lethal Enforcers 1 and 2

BAH!

But I can't contradict your statement. I have yet to play the game. Its still sitting on my shelf sealed in its shrinkwrap. I had intended to play it yesterday, but the only game I ended up spending time on was Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 on my PS2.

I just know that I LOVED Time Crisis, and every review I've read of Project Titan said that it was more of the exact same formula.

If only Sega would make a PS2 and Guncon 2 compatible version of Virtua Cop 1 and 2, then the world would be complete.

I dimly remember a licensed Terminator game. I may be mistaken, but I think that awful Aerosmith gun game had a Genesis version that used the Menacer as well.

There was some Menacer game that was under development at about the same time as Phantasy Star IV I remember seeing pictures of. It looked fairly neat at the time. It almost had me wanting to go out and hunt down a Menacer. I don't remember the title mentioned or even if it was ever released.

Terminator 2: The Arcade Game for Genesis was made for use with the Menacer light gun. Don't know about Aerosmith: Revolution X, though.

I know of one Guncon compatible game missing from your list: Gunfighter (I think that is the name). It's one of these late release games...it's a lot of fun actually!! Kind of a wild west type game. Kind of lousy graphics though. Well worth the money.

[King Atari]

My Genesis Revolution: X uses to the standard controllers to aim your crosshair, unless the gun is compatible also, I don't know.

[chrisbid]

i bought a menacer a few months ago, and have yet to plug the thing in to test it out. its the dumbest looking game gun ever released, and total reactionary product to the SNES super scope (which really didnt have much going for it either, but it looked a lot better)

Hey I just scored a copy of Jumping Flash 2 from Ebay. This game is fairly rare I believe and it is quite a fun, unique platformer. JF 1 was one of my first PS games so I might be a bit partial...na...it's a cool game
