Rating: - Overall, not bad
I got this lightgun for two reasons. One of them is House of the Dead 3. The other is, since I have a modded xbox, MAME. This gun is great for house of the dead - it's far better than using the joystick. However, I had some calibration issues. Maybe it's my TV, maybe it's the gun, I'm not sure. It aims allright, but the movement definatly is not 'silky smooth'. Now, in MAME, this is a different story. I have no experience with other lightguns, so again, I don't know if it's only this one. While I got the gun to work fine in MAME, it simply isn't accurate enough. The cursor jumps all over the place, and you simply can't aim properly. This is especially bad in games like Police Trainer, where you need to be able to accuratly hit targets - the cursor jumps from time to time.
The gun itself is nice. It has a reload button on the handle, which I never used as I'm used to "shooting offscreen" from the arcades. The button is kinda strange feeling if you're used to real guns. If you're lazy (or just want to mow down zombies) it has an auto-fire, burst-fire, and shotgun mode.
I'm sure I would rate this higher if the xbox had more of a library of games to play, but House of the Dead 3 is worth it, as cheap as these guns are.
Rating: - Light Gun
This light gun is solid and accurate. I play House the Dead 3 on my Xbox for which this light gun enhances the gameplay by 10 fold versus the joystick.
