Time Crisis: Crisis Zone

Great shooter game like it's predecessors Time Crisis 2 & 3. You start of with a machinegun instead of a handgun, (trust me you'll need it). One major drawback however is that it's only a one player game and you cannot use two guns when playing as one player. The instuctions say you can use two GUNCON 2 controllers for portions of the game, however after playing two levels of the game, I have not found a way to activate it. You might have to earn the ability to use two guns. I am very ticked-off about this. Maybe after playing the game more I'll figure it out. I've only played the game for 2 1/2 hours before writing this review. Thought I would warn potential buyers before they purchase it. Still, it's a Kick-B*tt game, but would be much better if you could use 2 guns.

Fast paced game with great graphics however, Unlike Time Crises 2 and 3 its somewhat mindless in the sense you point the machine gun in the direction of the bad guys and just shoot.. This game has one gun, at least in the early levels you can use the machine gun only. The bad guys in this game are hard to kill meaning you have to shoot them multiple times to kill them. In Time Crisis 3 some of the bad guys have to be shot up to 5 and 6 times however in this game all but one of the characters require nearly a full clip resulting in multiple reloads. I get the sense I am playing the same screen over and over with the only real change being the back drops. I hope it gets better, I have played through the second level up an to this point. Crisis Missions are near impossible but at least a little different. For more pin point shooting that requires a little skill rather then luck, I would say stick with Time Crisis 2 and 3.

Incompatible with many TVs

The game is no fun if you can't play it. The product information on Amazon doesn't tell you this, but the Guncon2 will not work with many kinds of TVs, including (apparently) all HD and ED TVs, such as LCDs, plasmas--also projection TVs, and certain Sony TVs. We didn't learn this until we received the product and opened it. We are waiting to see if GameStop will let us exchange it in one of their stores.

A decent game, but way too difficult to finish completely.

This first installment in the Time Crisis series, like the superb sequels, I played in the arcade. Though you did get to use a real big gun(really cool!)and though along with rapid bullet spray you could last for a while and claim your evil victims(like all games in this franchise, I imagined they were poachers)there is one big problem. It has so much way to go, and at least in the arcade, you need 4 coins for a start and continue, and never have I had that sort of money on the times I got to play it. Still, I have been able to do some good in the game, and the way the enemy men fall over or explode when you get them is pretty neat. So all in all, this is an OK game. If you can't find any other games you like but this one, you should play it. Don't, however, if there are more fun ones. The point is, this game is alright, but I have played better ones. So three stars as it is decent and only decent. At least not the worst. End of review.

Just like the old PS1 version there is apparently no way to save your progress, even though a memory card is required.

Every time I start I must begin again.
I don't have a 6-hour block to dedicate to winning a game, thats ridiculous.
