Yeah, tube TVs are needed for light guns... so it's Move/Wii only for now. Time Crisis 3 (or was it 4? whatever) basically had a similar setup to a Wii where there were sensor bars to setup, but there were 3 instead of just the one. I never played it but I know it existed and then was ported to Move.

Ugh, yeah. TC 4 was originally released on the PS3 using the GunCon. I have that pain in the ass set up that's just more trouble than it's worth. I'm going to trade the whole thing in and buy the Raze Storm Collection so I can play the game with Move.

I bought two of them so i could play 2 player when it was a deal of the day on Amazon (PS3 wasn't doing so hot then and that game certainly didn't do well anyway so it was cheap). Because of the pain in the ass setup I literally never played it once... never set it up. Sold it as "opened but new" and made my money back and then some since the system started picking up some steam saleswise.

I don't disagree with you, but the Move is a good enough proxy for me as a "light gun".

I was never very good at light gun games and usually just shot like crazy and had crap for accuracy so Move works just fine for me as well. I would love for Namco to go back and re-release some of the PS2 games with Move support, especially Vampire Night.

PlayStation Plus revamp to be announced at E3

I've got a bad feeling about this.

They can do whatever they want on PS3, since that's my Sharpshooter box these days anyway. And anything they do for the Vita has to be viewed as positive at this point.

I've been enjoying PS+ quite a bit since signing up for it. Sony's made some good moves with it so far, so I'll extend them a bit (tiny bit) of trust for right now. Which basically means I'm not automatically jumping to the conclusion that they're going to screw it up.

In other news, Really Big Sky is getting brought over to PSN as Big Sky Infinity. I got RBS as one of the games in some indie bundle or other and quite enjoyed it, so it'll be interesting to see how it's enhanced for PSN. The design was more than a little scattershot, but worked despite that.

It's only $2.50 on Steam right now and looks neat. Purchased.
