    Very average, arcade mode is fun but will last about an hour. Mission mode is done in first person and is simply a bit poor Mini games again good All in all an Ok lightgun shooter, but it doesn't play better than something like house of the dead 2, and if i'm brutally honest the graphics arent much better than house of the dead 2 (but there is lots more going on).

    Classic Time Crisis. TC4 is the same thing seen in past iterations of the series and with the same class. It's fairly replayable and has loads of minigame extras to play but the main extra, a first person shooter style gun game, comes out as a poor and cheaply done imitation that is quickly ignored. It would have been far better to add a new rail shooter scenario to blast through asClassic Time Crisis. TC4 is the same thing seen in past iterations of the series and with the same class.

    This game is fun depending on what you're expecting out a light gun game. The arcade mode is just like the arcade version where you duck and shoot and you automatically move from one scene to another. The mission mode is like a FPS and is almost a whole nother game in itself which i enjoyed. The mini games is also quite entertaining.

The mission mode is like a FPS and is almost a whole nother game in itself which i enjoyed. The mini games is also quite entertaining. The game is fairly easy and there is no way to change the difficulty, therefore, should be really fun for first timers but not as challenging to the experienced. Overall i enjoyed the game, the light gun decent and buttons are well layed out. It is pricey for the bundle but hopefully other light gun based games come out to help ease the cost of having to buy the gun.… Expand

    The only number part of the series released on PlayStation 3. This part is quite controversial, because in terms of the plot and the gameplay the game is worse than the third and the second part of the series. This part supported the third version of the game controller G-con made for this series of games. In this part, we finally managed to make a good split screen.

    Time Crisis 1 and 2 are so much better, I have even more fun with these on Emulator with mouse, than the "so called" Time Crisis 4 with the "so called" Light Gun (Move controller). The precise and singular shots of TC1 and 2 are just more fun that the "ratatatatata" non-precise gunning in TC4. If I had a room large enough for an old TV screen, I would buy me a old GunCon and the old games.Time Crisis 1 and 2 are so much better, I have even more fun with these on Emulator with mouse, than the "so called" Time Crisis 4 with the "so called" Light Gun (Move controller).

    But: TC4 is not bad. Besides the disappointment with the shooting and the non-funcional time-system, it's an okay mediocre shooting game.    … Expand

    Packed with a ton of unlockable content and a large amount of replayability, Time Crisis 4 is a fun game for any shooting fan looking to blast away with their PS3. The FPS Complete Mission mode places a new spin on the franchise, and the Crisis Missions and mini-games only extends the title's lifespan.

    Time Crisis 4 isn't broken, and the GunCon3 generally works as advertised; it's just appallingly unentertaining after ten minutes, insultingly expensive for what it offers, and has absolutely no place in the PS3 library of anyone but the most desperate gun nuts and Time Crisis devotees.

    Time Crisis 4 is an instant buy for long-time fans of the series. It really is a damn fine game, and the new Guncon has some potential for great games. At its core, the arcade game represents the perfect approximation of what it'd be like to be in a Jerry Bruckheimer action flick, and though it's over quickly, while it lasts, it's a blast.
