My family and I just got Area 51 for Playstation and we are very happy customers! To make the game a truly awesome experience, it pays to get a gun. We bought Interact's Lightblaster Gun, and it's just like being in the arcade!

Trigger Happy Fun

Area 51 was definately one of my favorite arcade games. Now, here it is, a perfect port for the Playstation. Everything included in this is just as good if not better than the arcade version. Just make sure that you have a lightgun or two. I reccomend Namco's GunCon which comes with Time Crisis and Point Blank 1 and 2. All those games are great as well, so you cant lose.

Perfect

This game is perfect for old fan of the arcade or pople just starting to enjoy the game. I do have to mention on main piont though, you can play it withought a gun witought much trouble, but if you want he full arcade fealing that you blowing away alien scum with uns of ammo, then buy a gun, I suggest that you also get codes to figure ou how tto get to secret levels

I spent a fortune in quarters playing this at the movie theaters...now I'm saving money with it on my playstation. It's every bit as fun as the arcade version. I have relatively inexpensive guns, and it's still a blast. The graphics are good, and the action is fast paced. I have about 2 dozen games for my playstation, and this one's always a favorite. Of the shooter games...this is the best.

Midway. Being an old-school gamer, that name sounds familiar. I think they did lots of arcade games. If so, then they haven't lost their knack for making great games. When I went to the arcade, this was the one game that I really liked to play. Now it's home on Playstation, my favorite system. But what really makes this game stand out are several things: 1 - you FEEL like you're in Area 51. You walk outside among the F-16's, you walk inside the huge working areas, you walk around private offices, bashing down doors and searching the rooms. 2 - It's a shooter, but not like traditional first-person shooters. It's a whole breath of fresh air in that respect. Sure, you have to go where the game takes you, but it's fun. 3 - Maybe I'm going a bit too far, but this is really more of a prototype of Half-life. That's a good thing, not bad. Finally, let me point out that I haven't played the PS version, but I have played the arcade version extensively. As long as the two are alike and Midway didn't do something stupid in the translation--which I honestly doubt--then this game is an EASY 5 stars. Definitely one I'll be buying in the future, when I get the money.

I always hated having to pay 50 cents every time but now you just have to pay to buy it.

I think that area 51 is the best shooter for playstation. I have a light gun (desert eagle-guncom) and it is the greatest game ever (with the gun) . It is much more fun with a light gun.

This game is alot of fun and you dont have to spend 50 cents on it everytime you die. This game is a good action shoot em up game

You can use a Guncon light Gun with this game too which is more fun
