has this always been my favorite light gun shooter because it imprinted on me, or are sprites just more fun?

This, but only for Area 51 Site 4.

I have yet to visit a place in America that has arcade games without this. Sometimes Site 4 will be the only game there other times it's with a bunch of other games but Site 4 is always there.

Really? Because I saw Area 51 all the time, but only saw Site 4 cabinets twice.

Site 4 is love, Site 4 is life. There for you when you need it, biding its time in your peripheral when you don't.

I'm the opposite. While not bad by any means, Site 4 feels a bit soulless compared to the original, and I say this as somebody with a dedicated Site 4 cab (for which I still need to get an original A51 PCB).

They put more effort into the environments and the feeling of an actual sort of story in the first one, although the gunplay feels nicer and the enemy deaths are done way better in Site 4.

Sprites are fine for FPS but they just don't feel right for light gun games. You're holding a physical 3D gun in your hands, your targets should be 3D also.

I'm a big light gun fan, but I've never cared for area 51.

too bad i don't get inverted colors on the Maximum Force combo, because the video was re-encoded. Costs me less than a dollar for a complete play-through though.

I wish there was a way to get a clean version of the sound track

My favorite game as a little kid. It scared me less than my other two favs: The Ocean Hunter and whichever Jurassic Park game my arcade had.

Site 4 inexplicably disgusted me as a child. It felt like an imposter.

Will it ever be properly emulated?

Yup, Site 4 feels more like a shooting gallery game with an alien theme, while the first game feels like you're a character in a cheesy alien action movie.
