    Pisspoor calibration makes this unplayable

    Light gun games as supposed to be light gun games. This is as far from a light gun game as you can come. This game is impossible to play with the OFFICIAL handgun cannon accessory due to calibration being very very very bad, making true iron sight aiming impossible. 
     
    If you want a true light gun game then do not buy this game!

      There is a button that reads "More Mutants." 0

      While scientists theorize as to why the dinosaur went extinct, nobody will ask any questions as to why the light-gun shooter is on the endangered species list of genres. Nor will PETA or the WWF have any remote interest into saving the breed of zombie/terrorist shooting simulators. The arcade, their natural habitat, was deforested by the loggers of Time. Their unwillingness to adapt to modern standards made the public bored in their cause, and left them to be devoured by their evolutionary super...
