In a recent interview on Gamasutra, Time Crisis 4 producer Teruaki Minami made some interesting points about the Guncon 3 and Namco wanting more companies to implement it into their titles.
The Guncon 3 is said to feature six LED markers, making it much more accurate than previous light guns and sounds like an impressive piece of hardware. Not only does it feature dual analogue sticks, it also has SIXAXIS capabilities, too.

In a new interview with Epic’s Mark Rein, he has applauded Sony’s “wonderful” decision to make PSN an “open system”.
Mark explains that, thanks to the open system structure of PSN, console gamers can get a lot more out of UT3, as all mods made for UT3 on the PC will run fine on the PS3 and don’t need to be approved or checked by Epic or Sony.
“This is the full power of the Unreal Editor. The same editor we used to create the games is now available to you. You want to import your objects you made in 3D Studio Max or Maya? Bring them in! You want to code an UnrealScript? Code an UnrealScript! All those things you can do. If they fit on our map, you can stick them on the PlayStation 3 and they’ll run!”
Mark also talks about a few other things, like Epic’s decision to use the PS3 as the lead platform for UT3 and Little Big Planet.
In the final article in a series about supercomputing, Dazed & Confused technology editor Chris Hatherill explores the latest exciting breakthroughs in quantum computing, which could make our machines millions of times faster and render today’s supercomputers obsolete…
Our world has become one of 1s and 0s. On or off. Bits and bytes – first kilo, then mega, now giga. As Moore’s Law marches on, promising a doubling in computer power every two years, the future seems easy enough to predict: you just draw a straight line going up and presto, you can determine exactly how fast your PS6 will be in 2016 – though what games we’ll be playing is another matter. Now, though, researchers are making serious breakthroughs in a field that could change everything. 1s and 0s could be replaced with numbers that can be both 1s and 0s at the same time, computer power could increase exponentially and today’s supercomputers could become obsolete overnight.
Following is information on the new Resistance: Fall of Man Bracknell and Axbridge maps. The Bracknell map is based in an old railway system, featuring disused train carriages, with the Axbridge map covering a valley strewn with rocks and Chimeran structures. Bracknell here we come…
