I just bought Time Crisis 3 for my son, and the add-on light guns
don't "work". We can't get them to callibrate with our inexpensive
Panasonic tv.
The directions on the tv say to set the "Screen type" and then
callibrate the 1P side. I don't see any options to choose between
screen types.
The manual also says "Guncon2 does not support hi-vision, LCD, plasma
displays, or projection tvs. Some progressive scan or high-level tvs
may also not be supported."
No where does it explain what any of this terminology means. As far as
I know, LCD/Plasma/Projection tvs are all out of my price range. This
is my tv:

# Diagonal Screen Size (inches) 27
# Aspect Ratio 4:3 (Standard)
# CRT Type PureFlat
# Comb Filter Motion-Adaptive 3-Line
