The Namco GunCon is probably the best gun controller for the Playstation. I have used it to play Time Crisis, Point Blank 1, Point Blank 2 and Gun Fighter: The Legend of Jesse James. Before you use the gun controller you will have to calibrate it each time you install it into your Playstation. That's probably my one and only complaint about it. And it's just a minor one. But after that it's like you're at the arcade. The games I have mentioned are great. If you are into Westerns, then you should get Gun Fighter. If you love playing at the arcade, then you should choose Point Blank. Time Crisis is also an excellent game to play using this gun controller. You often find this arcade game at theaters and one can understand why. If you like action movies, then this particular game will work for you. I have tried many types of console gun controllers and this one is probably the best.

This is a fun game if you can find any Namco GunCon light guns that actually work. Ours failed and we purchased two on line to use with "Time Crises" for PlayStation 1 and 2. Unfortunately, these two were as dead as the one we had. The seller never responded to our inquiry, but Amazon promptly informed us a credit would be forthcoming. Oh well, it would have been a miracle if they had worked and lasted if they did. But I wish the seller had tested them before listing them. I'm giving 4 stars because the game is fun but would give 1 star because the item simply didn't work and shouldn't have been sold.

Well, I bought the GunCon because I had Area 51 for ps1 and the guns that I originally had broke. I looked online and these were the only ones that I could find. I bought 2 of them for a total of 50 bucks (WOW) and they both arrived about a week late. I popped in Area 51 and WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT the GunCon is not compatible with that game! If I had known this prior to ordering, I would not have purchased them. However, since there seemed to be nothing stating what games these worked for, I had no idea.
