Shooting simulator makes Duck Hunt look even crappier

wideduck.jpgSo, you think you're pretty good at Dunk Hunt, do you? Well, I'm sure it's pretty easy, what with you aiming at a tiny TV and using that lightweight, fake light gun that came with the NES. You're no real hunter. If you want to prove your skill, you need to play a game that really approximates hunting.

That game would be the ST-2 Shooting Simulator from Marksman Training Systems, a room-sized setup that lets you use real guns to pretend hunt fake animals. You attach a camera to your gun and can use it to get used to the feeling of actually aiming a deadly weapon at another living thing, ensuring that you don't waste precious ammo at shots that don't take a bird down out of the sky. Can Duck Hunt do that?

CORRECTION: Sorry about the spelling mistake, guys. It is, of course, supposed to be "Duck Hunt."

So I see a commercial for DVICE - all about technology... First visit, and I get crap grammar, incorrect spelling and a holier than thou, "vegan" type attitude about fire arms. Well, at least I won't be wasting any more of my valuable time here! LOL at this site!!

why dont you compair this to VBS-2's addon capabilities..
that is a war-type simulator with this type of screen/gun deal..
(not vbs2 itself but an addon deal.. the game supports it)
