Now THIS is my idea of a console game!

The Shooting Simulator ST-2

Rifle and shotgun practice in the comfort of your own home.

No price on it. I bet it's not $15/month!

Some Olympic teams are practicing skeet & trap with it so it must have some value. I'd love to give one of those a try!

Looks like fun but there's no mention of a recoil simulator on the guns!

Interesting.  I would doubt if it could give me the satisfaction that a bird turned to fine orange dust does.

I'd love to have something like that but I have neither the space nor the money for it.  So, will just continue blasting away every couple weeks and hopefully score an extra clay now and then.

Lazer: Agreed. But my wife gets so pissed when the clay dust gets in the tan rug and the walls have all that #8 shot in them.

Halo: We probably have to wait 5 years until this filters down to widescreen playstation with the same capabilities for $200.

If it really helps I can see teams using it. Shotgunning for the average Joe is reaching that stage like the army. They have to train on simulators because you can't afford to run the actual equipment for training.

$50 for a bag of shot... I bought a bunch at $15/bag but it won't last forever.
