    Default Point Blank 3 & Namco Guncon $19.99 at EB Games

    I picked this up yesterday. I thought it was a good deal and it was brand new not used. The store I hit had 5 of them. Not sure if all EB's have this price or if this store was just trying to get rid of them.

    I'd never played a Point Blank game before. I'd have to say it was pretty cool. A ton of variety.

    I have a few other PS1 gun games I finally got to try out too. Gunfighter the Legend of Jesse James was good. THe graphics are a little weak but the gameplay and sound is great. It has a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western feel.

    I also have Judge Dredd. This one looks good and the live action cut scenes are pretty funny but doesn't seem very responsive.

    Does the Guncon work with Die Hard Trilogy?

    Actually it does! The Gunfighter game Den mentioned works great with the GunCon, a few others too, but offhand, not sure about the DH Trilogy 2 game.

    Thanks for the tip, Den! That's a STEAL. I just ordered two more, they'll make great prizes or gifts (or trades!) down the road.

    I just went and ordered one, and while I was at it I pre-ordered Legend of Zelda so I could get the bonus disc. This works out great for me since I don't have a N64 and missed it totally.

    a fine gift indeed!!

    Gunfighter and Judge Dredd neither of which are Namco games both have "for use with Namco Guncon" on the package. The Die Hard Trilogy does not.

    Wicked... I love the Point Blank series, and I could use a Guncon for my Playstation 2. The silly Mad Catz gun I've got for my Dreamcast just doesn't cut it.
