BRIEF
9:30AM Michael McWhertor | Super Cheap Time Crisis 4 Alert! Want a second GunCon 3 for Time Crisis 4 multiplayer fun? If you balked at the $US 89.99 US asking price for Namco’s latest gun shooter, maybe $US 49.99 is a bit easier to swallow. It’s Amazon.com’s current Lightning Deal and it’s going fast. Proof that people still like shooting at things, regardless of nauseating the character design. Thanks to our tipsters for the heads up! More »
Time Crisis 4 Supports Multiplayer, But You Can’t Buy Seperate Guncons
11:29PM Luke Plunkett | Namco Bandai’s upcoming lightgun extravaganza Time Crisis 4 supports 2-player, splitscreen play. Yay! Oh, wait…belay that yay. Rather than let you enjoy some good times with your friends, Namco Bandai would instead like to hold a knife to your throat. See, instead of allowing consumers to purchase a second, individual Guncon – for multiplayer, as a replacement, whatever – they’ve decided the only way you can get additional guns is to…buy additional copies of Time Crisis 4. At $US 60 a pop. Way to screw over your loyal fanbase, Namco Bandai. Real smart. [Consumerist] More »
Designing A Guncon
5:30PM Luke Plunkett | What do you know. One day we wonder why we haven’t heard much about Time Crisis 4, the very next day we get a nice post on the PlayStation blog about how the Guncon 3 was designed. If the team behind it are to be believed (and really, we don’t know enough about console gun peripherals to argue otherwise), it’s not as easy as it looks. Lots of things to take into account, like weight, and vertical aiming, and how bright you’re going to make your bright orange prototype. This is only the first part of what must be a whole series looking at the Guncon 3’s creation. Gun fans, you’re on notice, stay tuned.
