csmsss I had occasion to run through a similar police simulation toy (which I consider them to be) several years back when I enrolled in a citizens police academy course.

I find them unrealistic and far too naive and simple, if for no other reason than the "bad guy" responds the same way each and every time, no matter what you do. It doesn't react, respond and adapt to your actions, and there's no sense of continuum. I found it to be simply a computerized version of the old good shoot/bad shoot walk and pop simulations they used to use in the old days ala Magnum Force.
Shortcomings notwithstanding, they are far superior to shooting bullseye targets with wad cutters.

Clausewitz said "The greatest enemy of the good plan is the dream of the perfect plan."
