Dual-Wielding Arcade Pistols!

**Oneironaut Zero** · 02-15-2011 09:09 PM

Does anybody else do this? Whenever I'm in an arcade, and I play games like Lethal Enforcers, Area 51 and the like, I always feel compelled to play it with both guns. It costs more, and gets tough as hell, but it's So Much Fun. Lol. It's too bad you can't do it with a lot of the newer games, like Time Crisis, which use the pedal/cover system, but I like to play the classics, just so I get to use both guns.

This kid and I can't be the only ones!!

Man, I was doing that back in the Terminator 2 days with the dual uzi's. There was also some more recent generic game that I saw in Chuck E Cheez that set the game up for dual wielding. I've also played that one Sega Zombie game like that. There's just something about spreading your arms and shooting off screen at the same time, imagining the clips dropping to the ground as you continue your assault. My advice: Save your lunch money and enjoy this experience at least once in your life. Preferably in a Game Works with a lot of people looking at you.

Edit:

Bonus Props for playing a game with dual machine guns, and if you play something with pump action shot shot guns....well good luck.

Hahahaha. I figured that, if there was anyone on this site that has tried this, it would be you.

I've actually done it with Terminator a few times, also, but I didn't like that the Uzis were on bases. It made it so restricting (not to mention that it was hell, trying to hit the grenade launcher button. Lol.). Never tried it with pump action shotties, though. Haha. I could imagine doing it, though, after seeing how The Rock handled those two shotguns in the movie The Rundown. Haha.

But yes. I recommend dual guns to anyone who likes playing arcade shooters!

I did it with the terminator uzi's first just because of how close they were. It was almost if they were calling out to me. Now that I think about it, it's possible that I could have been the first person to ever dual wield arcade pistols. Or at least one of them. I've never saw anyone do it before me, and I was a hardcore arcade rat back in the day. I used to save my lunch money for that stuff.

I guess that makes two of us.
