Based on Namco's arcade game of the same name, Time Crisis II for the PlayStation 2 puts the player in the first-hand role of an accomplished marksman, beset by a bevy of well-armed enemies. The President's daughter has been kidnapped and, armed with a compatible light gun, players must quickly blast through level after level of swarming bad guys to rescue her. As in the original Time Crisis, this game offers a special control that allows the hero to pop up for a few shots then duck for cover as he reloads his weapon.
