Multiple weapons and pretty screenshots.
Although Namco already revealed Time Crisis 3 last week at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, today they sent over a batch of new screenshots, showing off the game's lovely PS2 graphics and innovative new Weapon Select system. The game's GunCon 2 compatible and is still due to hit U.S. store shelves in the fourth quarter of 2003.Like the previous games (a perennial favorite among us hapless GamePro.com staffers), Time Crisis 3's main difference from every other gun game is its "foot pedal"?when you push a certain GunCon button in the home version, your character will take cover, rendering you invincible but making it impossible to shoot enemies at all. The newest feature in the third game is the Weapon Select system, allowing you to switch between handguns, machine guns, hand grenades, and so forth while you're under cover. These weapons are earned by hitting the panels that appear whenever you shoot anyone in yellow clothing during the game. Most special weapons have ammo limits, of course, so you'll need to switch guns if you run out of bullets in mid-battle.
We'll have more info on the PS2 Time Crisis 3 very soon. Shame Namco didn't have a GunCon setup at E3 for us to try the game out on...
