    Old light guns made the targets white and the gun would sense that reflectivity, you'd hold the gun right next to the screen and never miss.


    It was even more effective if you were using a black & white tv that had manual brightness and contrast controls. If you adjusted things just right, you could aim at one target and due to a bug, you would hit all of the targets with one shot. I loved playing Gumshoe doing this as normally the game was near impossible. If you shot Stevenson to make him jump, all of the baddies on the screen would explode and it wouldn't use up any bullets either. It really helped fighting Zulie (the final boss).

  2. Molded from a real Beretta by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Note the gun is molded from a real Beretta. Even has the model and "PATENDED" on the side. Cut the cord and from a few feet away you can't tell if it is real or not. Definitely not good for kids...

    I'm gonna guess that you've never tried LSD.
