Between the two games, Darkside Chronicles is a significant improvement from Umbrella Chronicles, the monotonal graphics are replaced with color and bloom lighting, the archive and upgrade systems are expanded, however Darkside Chronicles suffers from severe shaky cam.

Neither game works well with the Zapper, best to go Wii-mote and nunchuck. Final Word: A well designed rail shooter which defeats the age old problem of lastability and finds itself a welcomed place on the consoles.

Two classic rail shooters in the same package, what more could you possibly ask for? Well, perhaps the original House of the Dead. The absence of the Saturn original is disappointing although somewhat understandable given the difficulty in Saturn emulation , and reflects on the compilation as a whole.

With all this said though, the quality of the individual games stand for themselves. House of the Dead III lacks the magic of its predecessor, but is nonetheless an interesting experience.

Swapping pistols for shotguns, House of the Dead III allows players to choose their own course through the game, placing an emphasis on epic boss battles and speed cutting death animations to save on speed run time.

Invariably, House of the Dead II is superior, in that the progression system is constantly offering up surprises. Dead Space Extraction is the prequel to science fiction horror title Dead Space.

The single player story therefore becomes a much more padded out experience, filled with sequences of conversation and quiet moments of down time. No doubt some people will complain about this there is a separate mode which will satisfy their itchy trigger finger, however , yet Extraction is a quality production and these external elements only work to make the shooting feel meaningful in a genre which can occasionally feel trite with repetition.

In regards to the shooting itself, Extraction adapts many of the properties which individualized the original Dead Space, such as strategic dismemberment, paralysis and kinesis, giving Extraction a very unique flavor in respect to other rail shooters. Head shots are no longer your main priority, but instead shooting off limbs. These two aforementioned points strategic dismemberment and paralysis are just a handful of the good ideas incorporated throughout Extraction.

In many ways, Dead Space: Extraction is an evolutionary step in the genre and one which is worth visiting. Ghost Squad is another arcade port, this time from The port to the Wii is a faithful one, with the additions of online leader boards and a 4 player mode. Ghost Squad is packed with inventive ideas which keep the Time Crisis-flavored gameplay entertaining throughout the span of the 3 missions.

Players rescue hostages, fight hand-to-hand, pick off guards with a sniper riffle and remove land mines, all expertly integrated within the confines of the point and shoot mechanics—the variety and execution is superb.

Unfortunately, in moving to the living room, Ghost Squad faces the unavoidable issue of lastability. Sega supplement the 3 missions with two secret modes where the characters and weapons are re-skinned to humorous effect, but these added frills do little to clear the stench of a quick cash in. It is a shame that Sega never bought the likes of Virtua Cop 3 to home consoles, but at least they ported over some other older, lesser-known games to the Wii for many of us to re-discover or, perhaps, discover for the first time.

The original arcade machines features large, rattling guns that were mounted to the arcade cabinets. Gunblade NY puts players in the position of saving New York from terrorists. The goal of both games is to find a group of enemies and kill them all before moving on.

Unlike House of the Dead, the enemies are dynamic and often jump off-camera. After a good deal of shooting and camera-rotating, you kill them all and move on. LA Machineguns was released by Sega in as a sequel to Gunblade NY but with a arguably more generic-sounding name as was developed for the Model 3 system. You will notice some nice graphical improvements in LA similar to an early Dreamcast game vs the NY counterpart that looks more like PS1 game. This time, aside from taking place in LA, the game is set in the near future where the law enforcement utilize hover bikes and often encounter androids and weapon pods that amp up the offense.

You also have to avoid shooting civilians compared to the civilian-free Gunblade NY. Final Word: Overall, the games are fun, but short with only a handful of levels.

Especially with its relatively high resale value making the honorable mentions on our Rare and Valuable Wii guide , an original copy is probably only for complete collectors or die-hard fans of the genre that like to try to beat their scores. It has a gameplay style that is very true to old-school on-rails light gun style, but has some modern refinement and solid gameplay design.

It has a great balance of variety that keeps things interesting without being too deep. You also need to reload based on a shot capacity. The game actually supports up to four players in both the main adventure mode and the extra modes. More players adds even more enemies to the adventure. This makes for a great party game and adds to the overall value of the game. In North America, there was a bundle sold with two revolvers nice for multiplayer!

In PAL regions, there was a replica of a Winchester rifle that was often sold with the game that has some great design and uses a functional level on the game to reload which hits a button on the contained Nunchunck controller. By the time it was released in , the Wii had a solid install base and was popular with families and kids. The Nerf N-Strike games often were bundled with a real Nerf gun that you could swap out the innards with a Wii Remote.

This combo not only had a cool nostalgic feel, but work rather well to give light gun feel. The light gun style section is just interesting enough to keep your attention as experienced player and it has a fun vibe to boot.

But the real selling point is that it is well targeted for younger kids and also works well in two-player mode. Many Amazon reviews mention that people got it for their kids or grandkids and they really enjoyed the game. It also has a fun, youthful vibe and is a great experience for kids — especially with 2-player mode. This third, titled Target Shooting, is really quite fantastically made.

UponADarkThorne 6 years ago 8. Which is sort of ironic, considering how popular urban fantasy is in both tabletop roleplaying games and actual fantasy novels. Ditto for all the TV shows. Shadowrun is more cyberpunk with fantasy elements. I suppose it could "count" but its loosely-fitting. Sadly I don't, which is a shame since looking at a description of the game it sounds like the sort of thing I'm thinking of.

UponADarkThorne posted Yeah, I'm kind of surprised there isn't some sort of open world sandbox game or something where you play some kind of modern-day wizard or something. You'd think there'd be a market for that kind of thing. Or maybe a Bioware morality RPG where you decide if you use magic to resolve disputes between muggles and mages or to take over the world.
