Ep 156: Going On Rails / A Gallery of Light Gun Games (w/ Nintenjoe)
Pew! Pew! We're fully locked and loaded for a discussion on arcade style video shooting games!
RELOAD!! RELOAD!! PER-KANNG!!
Whether you're aiming your NES Zapper at some 8-bit ducks or feeding quarters into an arcade to head-shot some video zombies, you're experiencing the white-knuckled action of a niche sub-genre of video games known as a LIGHT GUN GAMES or ON RAILS SHOOTERS!!
Tonight, with the help of our old buddy, Nintenjoe, we'll spotlight some personal favorites! We start with beloved titles like Duck Hunt, House of the Dead and Time Crisis and, as we are want to do, move to a bunch of obscure hidden gems that went under the radar!
