The most notable rail-shooter of all time that doesn't involve zombies! Time Crisis is such an awesome and well-paced shooter with a delightfully corny setting! The lone gunman in a nice jacket is sent out to save the president's daughter kidnapped and brought to this big ol' castle full of armed goons! Huh, that sounds familiar.

I really love how the two most notable rail-shooters both went for a really cinematic approach by creators that were blatantly inspired by movies. Time Crisis is so embedded in action movie blood that you got a guy yelling "ACTION!" between segments. That's legendary stuff right there.
