Ka-blam-o!

After spending a fair bit of time in an Arcade at a light gun sort-a kinda, my love for these guns was rekindled, remember duck hunt on the NES, eeeeexcelent!

I don't mean to get the flames started here, but i figured a lot of people in this forum own a playstation as the mac essentially suck at gaming, at least my PB 1.25 does ;D

Soooooo, can I use a G-con 2 on a plastma? Apparently, it doesn't work on LCDs and 100hz TV's, but it says nothing bout my darling screen.

Anybody?
