I just started college(arizon state) this week and at their arcade they have a couple of cool game that I haven't seen at Golfland or Gameworks. One of coarse is VC3, Crazy Taxi High Rollers(which I haven't seen in arcade form before, House of the Dead 3 for 1/4 the price of Gameworks and a Tokyo Cop Racing Game.
I have been waiting around 10 years for a sequel to VC and it has been well worth the wait. This game takes place in the future, not too sure how far. Your primary weapon seems to be some sort of tazer shooter. It has you basic VC elements, circle around characters you need to shoot at, stupid civilians that get in your way and bad SEGA voice acting. But there are two new features. One is special events where the screen freezes and you have to shoot certain targets in a short time limit. From what I see, if you hit theses targets you basically don't have to fight a group of bad guys. The second new feature is a pedal. This pedal allows you to slow down the game so you can hit guys with lots of automatic weapons before they can shoot you. A sort of 'bullet time'(althought I hate comparring things to the Matrix I think this is the best way to describe it so that everyone gets it). This mode is limited to a certain number of seconds throughout the stage so you have to use it wisely.
Now all I need to do is play SvC which I heard Mesa Golfland got so maybe I will check it out tommorow.

Dude, you live in Phoenix? I'm down in Tucson.
That's rad that you got VC3 in an arcade around you. I'll let my buddy know... maybe sometime later we'll hit that area to try it out. I know it's coming out for XBox later, but I don't know when.
Yeah, Mesa Golfland definitely has the game. It's an okay game IMO... let me know what you think of it.

Don't worry. Everyone calls it the "Bullet Time" feature. Even Sega themselves if I am not mistaken.

I think it is actually called some thing like E.S. mode or something like that, I am not too sure. But it was a cool thing to implement.

Thats cool, I was going to to to UofA, but I thought rent some places was too much for me. I really like the game, if it doesn't get old by its Xbox release I might pick it up.

Yeah, it's pretty fun... The "ES" mode adds an interesting new element to the series, and looks pretty neat at the same time (You can shoot the slow motion bullets coming towards you too I believe :P). Graphics are solid, and since it's on the Chihiro board it should look the same in the Xbox port.
It's also nice that the Virtua Cop games don't flash everytime you shoot like the Namco shooters do. Playing two player mode on the same screen with one of those can almost give you a seizure :).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to play Time Crisis 3 yet.

I had a chance to play both Time Crisis 3 and Virtua Cop 3 today.
VC3 impressed me more. Yes, you can shoot down enemy bullets when you slow down time.
TC3 was also very much fun. I'm not so hot about the enemy's with life bars, but the levels are very creative.
Be kind to goblins.

Many players in my arcade are doing the "John-Woo" thingie by playing a 2-player mode ALONE. I must say playing it with 2 guns look really cool...
