The Guncons

Recommended Posts

Okay--I have a PS2 but no PS1. I could get a good deal on Time Crisis with a Guncon (1).

 

So, is that all I need to play the game? Would the Guncon work with the PS2? OR do I need to have a Guncon 2?

 

I've heard from several peeps "likely" I just can use the Guncon, but nobody is certain.

Personally, I'd get a Guncon 2 to be on the safe side.

 

EDIT: removed the picture and some incorrect info.

Yeah, it works. Playing TC1 on PS2 right now. You can even use the GC1 to play some GC2 games, like TC 2.

Yeah, the one in the picture is what I would be getting, with the yellow plug. It's grey, but otherwise looks the same.

 

An adapter though? **** What would it look like, BTW? If a Guncon 2's going to run me 15-20 bucks, and it would only be 5 or so for an adapter (used, likely), I'll stick with the Guncon 1.

 

Does Point Blank! work with it?

Actually, you can probably ignore what I said about the adapter. As it turns out, my friend bought a used Dual Shock PS1. It didn't come with any of the plugs, so he used the plugs from the first PS1 model. In retrospect, he should have bought a new AV cord (the kind that comes with the PS2) instead of the Guncon adapter.

So, I just plug that yellow cord in between the yellow A/V cable and the TV, and plug the controller plug into the PS2 port, and I should be in business?

I think so. Anyanka/Sakura would know better than me, but as far as I know, it goes like this:

 

PS2 yellow plug>>>Guncon yellow plug>>>TV.

All 3 Point Blanks work with GC1, but not GC2.

Yes. It's really easy.

Okay. I got Time Crisis and the Guncon, and it worked just as you described, Anyanka. :) Thanks.

Guncon 2 kinda sucks. :P

Guncon 2 is so much better. Lighter, more buttons and better button placement.

 

TC 2 is better than TC 1 too.
