Some reviewers only got the guns to work properly if they sat just right (just right meaning perfectly lined up with the TV screen being only three feet away, something we've clearly learned as children will cause nearsightedness, premature baldness and impo-tency.so don't try it at home).
Most of the gaming sessions had problems, from the occasional shot wandering an inch away from where you're aiming to not recognizing the gun at all (this usually happened when aiming for the lower-right corner of the calibration screen). We tried it on several TVs, including a 32' Magnavox, a 19' Sony Trinitron, a 13' Samsung gx TV, a 32' Sony Trinitron XBR Flatscreen and more. After all, a light gun game isn't the same without a light gun, is it?Some of us had a lot of hassles calibrating either gun with HOTD2. The boss monsters become weirder, and the onslaught becomes almost apocalyptic.įinally.our reviews of The House of the Dead 2 are here.you know, that game that's been out in stores since 9/9/99?We wanted to make sure we test drove HOTD2 with the two light guns (the InterAct Starfire and the Mad Catz Dream Blaster-both were unavailable until this ish) before making any sort of judgement. If you have a good surround sound system and can get some mates round for a game, then a Saturday night will never be the same (you're liable to be single in no time). Get Your GunIf you can wait until September when the light-gun/game bundle is out, will be a delight to play. Cue the obvious 'finding the button' jokes. If you added some stale smoke, a load of screaming school kids and some dodgy neon lights, it would feel like you were in a seaside arcade.The game is true to its heritage, and has the same dubious plot involving a guy called G who you have to rescue/avenge (things get a little hard to follow), although there is sadly no mention of finding the G-Spot. This is coming in September, but until then we get the coin-op with all the frustration of using a mouse.The game itself is the usual 'scary-scary-horror-brooding' affair, although the green-blooded zombies are none too impressive with little in the way of gore.
