Anyone try it out yet? Looks like a great edition to a Wii library that hasn't had a new game added to it in awhile.

I'm not even a big fan of lightgun games but I really enjoy this one. The humor is over-the-top blaxploitation and there's an unlockable mode where you can use two guns.

You absolutely need the Nyko perfect shot for this though. It's fantastic for this game.

Fuck yeah I played it! Best fucking light-gun game on the Wii. I highly recommend you buy it so they can make a fucking sequel!

Old 2D art is different from old 3D art, you can't even use that argument. Get out.

If you get dual-wield mode and each of you use one gun you can play 4-player co-op :)

Please tell me you're kidding. Pixel art is awesome.

Typing of the dead
One of my favorites. Anytime I'm at the Japan arcade, I make a point to play it. I really wish they'd release a new version of it on a modern console.

I just recently got the game. I really enjoy it and it really reminds you o playing at the arcade all those years ago. My main complaint is that there is a pretty noticeable frame rate drop that occurs on the regular. Despite this it remains a fun game and a nice addition to Wii's growing mature games.

ALL CAPS IS LIKE HITTING SOMEONE IN THE FACE WITH A ROLLEYES EMOTICON. And dudes, gameplay, gameplay, gameplay. I have had many many hours of fun with the wii. Specifically Mario Kart.

Is it possible to turn off the crosshairs?

I played it a bit, but it feels like cheating if I know exactly where I'm aiming.

Yes you can turn off the crosshairs, it's only like the 3rd option in the options screen so i can see how you missed it.

This game is fantastic and is a thousand times better than madworld.

There's even all sorts of film errors thrown in on purpose. It's hilarious.

Haha, it's so good. The humour is so blatant and makes fun of itself.

Finished the game this past weekend. Great ending. I really hope enough people bought this game to warrant a sequel which will hopfully be longer in length and slightly more difficult.

On to the director's cut:rock
