The Games That Made Us Podcast Episode 2: Time Crisis

from The Games That Made Us · host BoyManBeard

Join us on this episode of The Games That Made Us as we sit down with guest Swishbone to discuss the iconic arcade light gun game, Time Crisis. We dive into the nostalgia of the arcade scene in the late 90s, the thrill of the peripheral’s signature kickback, and the technical challenges of bringing the arcade-perfect experience to the PlayStation 1 at home. From mastering the foot-pedal mechanics to the "drip" of the legendary boss, Wild Dog, we break down why Time Crisis remains a cornerstone of retro gaming and how its fast-paced design influenced our approaches to later action titles
