Rail-Shooters

This is probably my new favorite genre of games. If you don't know what a rail-shooter is, it's a game that has a predefined path, and you just shoot everthing on your screen! So games like House of the Dead, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, Target: Terror, Time Crysis, etc. Also known as a "light gun" game, because in arcades, rail-shooters have a plastic gun that you use to shoot the things on-screen! Anyways, these games are HIGHLY RECCOMENDED! (by me Very Happy

)

Anyone have a favorite rail-shooter?

Yeah! Most of the time, you'll see them at arcades, but every-so-often, you'll find them on a home console! Like House of the Dead on the Wii/Xbox 360!

Oh yeah? I'm glad you said that, because I wasn't sure about if I should get it or not, and I was actually going to start a thread about it, but now I don't have to! Laughing

So it's worth buying?
