With the recent release of Midway's Blacksite: Area 51 on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC (the fourth game in the series), Larry takes a look back at the game that started off the whole franchise.

  • One of the developers of Blacksite said it was shit just as it was released...that really boosted sales

  • @WrestlingRevealedLes Really? I wouldn't go that far, but it's definitely not one of Midway's crowning achievements by any means.

    I'm saddened they never released a sequel to Psi-Ops.

  • This is one of the only two light gun games I ever 1CC'd in the arcade; the other being Gunblade NY.

  • @Sonic619 I'm surprised you didn't do it on Virtua Cop. I could on the Saturn version.

  • what happened to area 51? arcade style? fuck new wave of arcades

  • Loves the original so much. Must have dropped at least $200 over the years on it. Now I only spend $3; 1 to get to about halfway through, and 2 struggling not to die horribly past that point :P

    Awesome review.

  • I have the Saturn version. Someone should port it over to the Jaguar. I'd buy it. :)

    STAY AWESOME! :)

  • I Remember playing the arcade light gun version of this, I have given more quarters to it than I have to my mums old alarm clock! (lame joke) (but seriously, I have beet the arcade game more that seven times! XD)

  • @LarryBundyJr Alright he didn't say it was shit, but he commented that it wasn't nearly as good as he wanted it to be

    Google "Blacksite was fucked up" and you can see articles on his comments, Youtube won't let me post the link

  • i got blacksite and it was pretty crappy in my opinion, just seemed quite a standard run-and-gun shooter
