"Terminator 2, the blockbuster movie from the 1990s, is still beloved today. The film was so huge that Midway released a light gun-style arcade game that was soon ported to 16-bit and 8-bit consoles and computers. Though older licensed games seldom get modern re-releases, Terminator 2: Judgement Day is just too tough to kill. Arcade1Up has opened preorders for a 3/4-scale home arcade cabinet with real light guns and 2-player co-op," says Co-Optimus.
The Outerhaven writes: While the Arcade 1UP Terminator 2 Arcade Machine was leaked and shown during 2020, the cabinet has been officially revealed and will be going up for preorder soon.
Very cool that the company is bringing the arcade back for home use. That's where a lot of the fun was. In the arcade with friends and family. That price though of possibly $700.... hmmm...NOPE. Will stick with MAME for the time being.
Wish some developer made a Terminator VR game though. Would be awesome.
OK now they have my attention!
I remember playing a lots of coins to play this game and let's be honest playing this game on a emulator versus holding the gun with force feedback is not the same experience.
Might be the 1st arcade cabinet that I will buy (I'm honestly always tempted till I remember that I own several version of said games).
I played this in the arcade the other week. It is a really bad game in todays times.
PeanutButterGamer goes over his top 10 worst licensed video games and has SO much fun while doing it.
This week Fred and Jam tackle the wonderful world of light gun shooters. What started as a mere carnival game evolved into one of the more interactive – and for some of us, fun – genres that has not withstood the test of time. With the advent of newer screens, the technology that made light guns possible is now ruined by delays of no more than a fraction of a second. In this episode we discuss the history, technology behind, and our fondest memories of the games that utilized the light gun peripheral.
This was were it all begun for me in terms of light guns..my old C64 http://www.richardlagendijk...
Light gun games are some of my favorite. I played one in collage that that used a sensor to track your body and you had to physically duck behind shelter. Killed your legs but it was fun. Can't remember the name, post below if you know the name.
This uses the sinden light guns which are meant to be quite good. I'd like a couple but looks like it's taking ages to reach people
This was such a good game back in the day
