	Light gun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		These early light gun games used small targets (usually moving) onto which a light-sensing tube was mounted; the player used a gun (usually a rifle) that emitted a beam of light when the trigger was pulled.
		The video game light gun is typically modeled on a ballistic weapon (usually a pistol, but occasionally a shotgun, sniper rifle, or sub-machine gun) and is used for targeting objects on a video screen.
		A positional gun is essentially an analog stick that records the position of the gun to determine where the gun is aiming.

		Video game light guns are synchronized to the video signal, and "watch" the screen, which lets you aim at targets onscreen.

		GUNCON 2 Shooting Action – the popular light gun is an essential piece of equipment in the player’s arsenal.
		For example, if you were outnumbered in a closed space with a lot foes on the screen, in any other guncon game youd have to shoot them all down one by one, ducking like a madman and losing time but now, youd just select the nade launcher, aim, and clear the area of enemies.
		The funny thing about these kind of games (so long as you're using a light gun) is that they improve your accuracy with firearms.

	Game Matters
		The game was poorly positioned, both from a branding perspective and from a game concept perspective.
		Near the beginning of the game, you should show the player an example of how the hero is flawed, so that at the end of the game, he can see how the hero has been transformed.
		With a weak premise, or no premise, a game leaves the player feeling the story is out of control, and that is the biggest lack I see in game stories--usually games don’t have a strong premise, a strong statement about life, or the way the world is, or the way the world should be.

		According to the listing, the job will start with a month-long trial period, which indicates that the game is probably still in development and it will most likely not be undergoing a final debug before release.
		While there is always the possibility that the game in development is a new title, it is more likely that the new project is either a home console port of Virtua Cop 3, or a new Virtua Cop for arcades.
		House of the Dead fans should note that the chances are slim that the game is a HOD sequel, since the series is a release from another Sega studio called Sega Wow.

		But, it could also be the result of miss-calibration of the light pen with the refresh rate of the screen.
		If the light gun doesn't have the correct timing information it can't really tell where it is pointing and the error will accumulate as you get toward the left edge of the screen.
