I remember playing Operation Thunderbolt at the services on the way to a school trip and got as far as saving the pilot on the plane, then had to get back on the coach. Gutted.
Originally posted by Asura View PostThe thing was though, Operation Wolf wasn't a lightgun game. The gun was really just an analog controller moulded into the shape of a gun, so the gun wasn't even necessarily pointing at where the shots are fired, even in the original!

Makes me reflect on how there hasn't been a really good VR sniper game. You could probably do Silent Scope in VR.
