"Only one gunslinger can stop a Mad Dog gone wild... and that's you, partner. When the ruthless outlaw Mad Dog McCree goes on a rampage with a nasty pack of wanted fugitives, they leave death in their wake. Relive the gunpowder glory of the Wild West in this collection of three classic Mad Dog McCree arcade games that will leave your Wii Remote smokin'!"
No more of an 'interactive movie' than any other lightgun shooter, really. I always found these games pretty fun, although past a certain point the reaction times necessary are faster than my aging self can hope to achieve.
We here shall not rest until we have made a drawing-room of your shaft, and if you do not all finally go down to your doom in patent-leather shoes, then you shall not go at all.
Anyway, I thought the DVD version was just blurry but I guess this is the best quality they have? It'd be great if it was possible to remaster the film or something. Dragon's Lair and Space Ace look really nice in HD widescreen.

you could never get it wide screen but a remastered version would rock so hard of Dragons lair and space ace. but on a wide screen with boarders would rock. would people be in to it though?
Talk about milking a game. This is worse than Last Hope:Pink Bullets or whatever. This game has been released on every damn CD system upwards, without anything different. Easy money

Not quite true. Plenty of modern (read: released in the last fifteen years) lightgun games have score attack elements or moments of freedom of choice that simply aren't possible in FMV titles.
Most of those things are completely possible in an FMV game with enough footage and clever editing. Branching paths and score attack stuff like chaining or shooting down projectiles are very easy to do with FMV, although I'll grant that it doesn't possess the same level of immersion and that Time Crisis-like dodging would be very difficult to pull off. Even so, almost every modern lightgun game has the player running through a nearly identical scenario and set of enemies each time. I'd also say that most of these games aren't significantly more fun than the likes of Lethal Enforcers (not FMV, I know) or Mad Dog McCree -- which is not to say that they're bad.

As dumb as it sounds, I would actually buy that if it was a budget title (or possibly used). I used to love Mad Dog McCree back in the day. I remember playing it at the famous Wall Drug tourist trap when I was like 13, and they had a HUGE setup w/ a massive screen that you could shoot at w/ the light gun. This is definitely one of those "because of my childhood" games I would buy for the nostalgic value, and because I couldn't in good conscience plunk down the money for the Sega CD version
