Forums - Nintendo - definitive on rail shooter???? :O

Now what do u guys think about light gun gamess?? I thinkk one or 2  is enough already.

Most of them are just lazy efforts of what could have been an awesome ggaming experience (im watching u EA  O_O).

House of dead 2 & 3 for a $20 retail price now and acceptable graphics, nice gameplay, decent story and a nostalgia feel in it :D, so is not that bad; House of dead Overkill was fun and all but, its just wasnt enough contet to justify the $50 retail price at least 2 & 3 were cheap :/; Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, well i think Capcom made an excelent on rails shooter, but at the same time, this was the first REAL On Rail Shooter for  wii, UC was a huge hit so many companies start to give this excuses of full games to us :/ soo i guess... thank you capcom?, besides now they are doing darkside chronichle???????!!!! =O =O :O :O :-O :-O Capcom cmon, is enough:P! just give us a RE5 game 4 the wii, the RE4 engine it would be great for it, or just make a RE from ground up exclusvely for the wii *dreaming u_u* naaaa but seriously, Capcom is great they did Zackand wicky and Monster hunter 3 they are actually working now; now Dead Spac:e Extraction... okok at least i can see some actual effort in this one but seeing what could have beenn, it just show us and tease us of what wii is capable of and it make me wish I could actually move in the game.

mmmmm im missing another one?? oooo yeaahhh Sin and punishment 2, is not actuallly a light gun per se, more like a star fox feeling for mee but, iss alright :D, jeeezzzz give us at least duck hunt 2 nintendo! hahaha

edit: ohhh i forgot about this on rails, NERF N-STRIKE exclusively for the wii:

PURE WIN

Dead Space Extraction if you put narrative and cinematic above shooting. Overkill if else.



@routsounmanman: yeahhh i think dead space extraction is the king of the ORshooterss, i just would like that the game would be more fast paced and have more action going, is really slow, i think its like an interactive movie, and if u consider that... its really COOL

hahaha i think people are not interested at all in on rail shooters xP haha

well yeah they are just lazy efforts

f*ckkkkk freaking light guns they are so 90´s



Don't forget about Medal of Honor Heroes 2 in arcade mode. That's how on rails should be, an optional mode in a FPS/FPA game.



The usual problem with this type of game, it's that they are very short or lack replay value.

In overkill you can finish the main game in 4 hours, and if you play the director's cut you have another 4-5 hours of game. It's a great game, but it's not worth 50 bucks.

The games can't be longer, because they become repetitive, they have to be cheaper. I think that $30 it's the right price for this kind of experience.

My favourite is actually Ghost Squad. It's pure escapist fun where as the others dark atmosphere makes them more serious, which led to me enjoying them less.

For the past decade I'll second ghost squad, why, because you don't leave any traces, well except thousands for dollars of property damage and hundreads of corpses, plus the extra's a fun, and the story is laughably over the top

otherwise the original house of the dead  would be my pick for the definitive rail shooter



I HAVE A DOUBLE DRAGON CAB IN MY KITCHEN!!!!!!

NOW A PUNISHER CAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup. Whenever I play with my friends we always say "Except for the thousands of bullet holes and hundreds of corpses" whenever we see "leave no trace" in the mission objectives.

I think the problem is that the companies sell this stuff like they are "full games", and they are simply not worth the full price, a 30 dollars price would make them great, an online feature, online coop, leadreboards, and something to make them more REPLAYABLE... or maybe the option to actually MOVE in the f*ckin game or something, or what jlauro said, it will be alot of fun if they were just a special mode in REAL FPS



I hear that Target: Terror is supposed to be jawdropping.
