Time Crisis 4 exclusive to PS3 - Will use Guncon 3
The latest issue of Famitsu holds some fairly interesting tidbits. It seems that Time Crisis 4 is going to have a direct port from the arcade machines exclusively onto the PlayStation 3 at some point in the future. As well as the arcade mode, the game will also feature a new mission mode, though there are no details regarding what that will involve, as of yet.
The most exciting news to come from this is that the Guncon 3 controller will be released, presumably, alongside the game. The newest iteration of the Guncon peripheral will use Infra-red emitters, rather the first two which relied on cathode-ray timing to detect where the gun was being pointed. As a result, the Guncon 3 will work perfectly with LCD TVs whereas the previous two did not. A downside to the new controller, however, seems to be that, judging from the attached image, it will be wired. Whether this is the case for the final product or to allow for backwards compatibility with the PS2 is unclear.
