I would HIGHLY doubt its any good, there arent really any lightgun games on the 360 and playing an ordinary FPS with this would be a pain!

looks crap tbh. you seem to have to turn very far for it to work.

i disgree i think it will be good it makes a change to the game. i didnt notice that hje had to turn far for it to work i thought it was spot on .

After watching those videos I do not think I would go near that product. It is not a light gun, it gust used the same tech that the wii has to replace the right thumbstick. It looks clunky, awkward to use and if it has a poor PR strategy.
"Industry expert" my ass.

I think I read somewhere, that light gun games dont really work with lcd and plasma tvs. So if it works like the Wii, I doubt it would be any good.

I wouldnt mind playing a proper light gun game though, if someone could get it too work with lcd, they used to be fun in the arcade - not a fps though.

MAG GUN is not lightgun, it is specially designed motion sensing gun for FPS and TPS games. If you have a chance to try it, you'll find it actually a great product.

Ill take my chances, thanks, i like being able to sit down and play my games with my straightforward pad, anything else needlessly complicated the issue.

also you should identify yourself if you represent the company that makes this

I won't be in HK anytime soon, so pass.

Also, if they wish to sell this thing, they'd need to get better video demonstrations that those, had I any interest in the product, they'd put me right off it.
