TIME CRISIS 4 Namco’s popular Arcade-born First Person Shooter series keeps innovating the concept with more involved missions, the new Guncon 3 (see below) adding a whole new dimension. Familiar enemies and new allies make for one exciting hail of bullets. New gaming tactics are also included to expand the scope and action levels. Moral guardians believe these games groom future gun-toting maniacs - I think it can actually play a role in relieving pent-up aggression by letting rip with (fake) automatic fire. These are cops getting the bad guys, after all! Someone who would confuse this with reality would believe John McClane is a real person in an actual Die Hard world… 5 / A - Paul Blom Next Generation Guncon® After several incarnations, the current Guncon® 3 peripheral control is the most advanced to date, with some top-notch redesigns perfect for next generation shoot-‘em-up gaming. Ideal for FPS games like Time Crisis 4, the new design includes two dual shock analogue sticks, one on the new extended second front grip (in addition to another two buttons), and the second stick at the back of the gun where the firing pin would be (again with an extra two buttons below that). Both analogue sticks are comfortably controlled with the thumbs. The new design and button configurations allows for a whole new dimension of free roaming gameplay, throwing you right in the action. The control is fully compatible with all TV screens – extra sensors supplied to place at the corners of your set to detect the trajectory for accurate aiming. Some may find the orange colour jarring, but this may appease critics who don’t want it to look too realistic. The next step? Making the Guncon® cordless! •
