[edit] Prewords
Although a little out of date now, there was a Time Crsis 4 machine in the Namco Wonderpark in Meadowhall, Sheffield. Having played it, the plot revolves around a splinter of the US Military stealing the Terrorbots, and using them for their own means.
There is also sections of the game where the player is onboard a helicopter, firing a minigun, as well as sections where the player is barricaded in to a section, and forced to defend for a certain period of time. This is where the screen-changing aspect of the game comes in. Finally, there's also a section where the player must escape from quicksand.
Another interesting addition was a character that followed you around, assisting in killing enemies and giving out weapon ammunition when the player runs low. There was also speakers attached to the machine representing contact with a military base.
I'm putting this into the discussion and not the main article because I'm no good at writing main articles, and this is more of a spoiler/possible gameplay kind of thing.
[edit] Re: Trivia
Guys, don't you think that this "Trivia" section in a video game and/or video game character articles is getting really old? I've seen edits which mention an add in the Trivia, and the Trivia concept is getting really old, please advise. Thanks. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 10:55, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A rant about editing
Regardless of what you edit (I'm not going to name any names, neither commit any WP:OWN atrocities), ALL edits that you do whether if it's here or any other Wikipedia article MUST be verifiable without any exceptions. No if's, and's, or but's. Period. Also, try not to violate any copyrights when editing guys. I really don't want to bring you guys back to first grade, but because I've seen two waves of unverifiable edits, I have to do this. Your cooperation is appreciated. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 00:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Seiyuus
"Time Crisis 4 is the first game of the Time Crisis franchise to deploy seiyuus for the Japanese-language cabinets, and English-speaking voice actors for the non-Japanese cabinets".
Seiyuus means nothing to me and I suspect nothing at all to most of our readers - what does it mean?
--Charlesknight 13:41, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
A Seiyuu is a Japanese Voiceover who does voice work for a variety of applications—video games, Japanese cartoons, animated movies, whatever you can come up with. The reason why it's mentioned is because the cabinet will be localized for Japan for the first time. Prior to Time Crisis 4, all voices were exclusively on English, but because of the voice navigation system, seiyuus had to be used for the Japanese release, because not too many people in Japan speaks nor understand English. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 02:17, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A little Time Crisis etiquette
At this point, there will be NO console conversions of Time Crisis 4 for now, neither there will be additional Time Crisis games for the timebeing. This article's talk page is to be used ONLY to discuss improvements for the article. Unless there is a citation for such, please refrain from editing this article and its talk page unless you have credible improvements to make.

[edit] Talk Page Vandalism
Please use talk pages only to discuss about edits and/or to improve articles here in Wikipedia. This is NO PLACE for such silly chit-chat and/or to put unconfirmed information. Thank you. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 23:02, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Information Leak
During the beginning of the game, the VSSE Director mentioned that there is an "Information Leak" as Giorgio and Evan face off the soldiers. I think this should be mentioned somewhere in the article that the soldiers ambushed the heroes inside the airport through an act of an information leak. Comments? — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 22:01, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Elizabeth "Beth" Conway
What I had to do was I had to go to Namco Bandai's official Time Crisis 4 website in Japanese, listen to the whole attract movie, did a google search of "Karen Thompson" "voice" to find out that a famous voice actress named Megan Hollingshead was the one who did Beth's English VO for the game. Realizing that this could be the correct Karen Thompson that gamers are looking for, I had to also listen to a voice sample of Megan Hollingshead and compare the voice with Beth's English Voice in the Attract Movie. I edited the Megan Hollingshead article a bit to make a note of this as after hearing it through headphones, have positive verification that Megan Hollingshead was liable for Beth's English VO in the game. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 02:16, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] ATTN: Crystal Ball-ism content
Those who have invested themselves in a particular video game franchise should know that crystal ball content will not be tolerated at Wikipedia as it will be moderated as vandalism. Apparently the crystal ball vandal appears to be from Singapore and has been warned too many times not to add cruft/speculation/crystal ball content on the article and its talk pages. Remember Wikipedia enforces "on-topic" edits stiffly, and if you have a problem with this, talk to a Wikipedia Administrator first. Period. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 14:14, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No cruft reminder
I'm sure there will be another Time Crisis but since we have no information or annoucements about it, it's classed as crystal-ballism - meaning we don't add it to articles. --Charlesknight 12:47, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WP:NOT reminder
Please read WP:NOT before you even make any cruft edits. Any crystal ball-ism, cruft, and/or speculation will be considered WP:VSCA and disciplinary action will be taken. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 15:01, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Marcus Black--Sam Riegel?
I just did a Google search for "Jack Ringo" and it must be the fact that Namco Bandai has a bad habit of spelling L's like R's, so I did a Google suggest search of "Jack Lingo" and amongst them was a wikilink to Sam Riegel. I'm not sure if Sam Riegel actually did Marcus Black's voice but here's a voice sample of Sam Riegel: [1].
Tell me what you think and if you guys approve it, then I'll edit the article to reflect Marcus Black's voiceover for English. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 15:39, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Is there some information that I missed?
On the article it says that Evan and Giorgio were sent to San Francisco International Airport. I have seen the game but how is there evidence that it is in SF? It might be it DOESN'T even look like SF International Airport. Jramirez23
- It's a very minor detail. It probably doesn't even need to be in the article, but I've removed it pending confirmation from Vesther or whoever else has played this game. Hbdragon88 17:18, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
