    The wii has a load of light gun games coming out soon might be worth having a look. They are using the wiimote and nunchuck in the special holster they have made

    The dreamcast light guns don't seem to work on my LCD... which is a shame, I'd always assumed they needed a CRT too.

    Re: light guns

    The new ones will work with LCD/plasma's as they will be using the same style of technology that Nintendo use for their Wiimote.

    I know Namco are working on a guncon game, not sure if its coming out on the 360 tho.

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.

    Good riddance. Wish I'd done it about a year ago.

    Re: light guns

    The old x-box game House of the Dead 3 works in BC mode on the 360, but I don't know about the light gun.

    There are guns that work on LCD/Plasma/DLP but they are few and far between at the moment.
