    An arcade game with hot and violent gameplay, perfect music and a beautiful setting that makes you feel like you're really in the wild west. The physics of the game are also great and almost everything in the scenario is destructive. This is without a doubt the best CALL OF JUAREZ

    Не понимаю как у этой игры может быть такая высокая оценка на метакритике. Если е смотреть сквозь призму ностальгии, это очень посредственная игра, с однотипными локами и дохуищями врагов.

    A very mediocre shooter that time seems to have forgotten. The repeated reuse of assets, very bland and uninteresting locations and levels, and the disjointed story make this a bit of a relic, but if you're into cowboy shooters, this has plenty of blood and fun campy aspects to satisfy.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Единственная пройденная мной часть серии Call of Juarez. Тем не менее, по-моему мнению, лучший шутер в сеттинге Дикого Запада. Основная сюжетная канва очень хороша. Рассказ охотника за головами, уже отошедшего от дел, в который мало кто из слушателей верит, тем более что рассказчик где-то явно привирает. Но то, что самая важная часть оказывается правдой, повергает всех в шок, и после прохождения ты сам не вполне веришь, что герой отпустил обидчика. Геймплей - главное достоинство игры. Оружие не блещет разнообразием, однако хорошо проработано и совершать убийства, а тем более серии убийств, приятно. Классический револьвер никогда не подводит стрелка, ставя хэдшоты. И вишенкой на этом торте являются дуэли, почувствовать себя тем самым ковбоем, жизнь которого зависит от долей секунд, быстрой реакции и скорости нажатия кнопок, да еще много раз за всю игру - бесценно. Графика приятна, взрывы смотрятся интересно и к месту. В целом, вся игра проходится быстро, но запоминается надолго и к ней хочется вернуться. Expand

    I think the best selling point of this game is its visuals, the wild west vibe mixed with cell shaded graphics makes this one of the best visual experiences you will find in a FPS.

    The game is really charming, the story is cohesive but doesn`t take itself too seriously, and it has some genuine really funny moments and some third wall breaking moments, which maybe isnt for everyone, but I did find it really amusing.

    Gameplay wise, super fun, has all the basics of an FPS, has a leveling system, which is also super basic, but its fundamentals are so well done that its just a breeze to play through, most people can play it in one sitting.

    Even though I found the game unfair at times, and the duels sometimes can be annoying and time consuming (if you are not good at them like me), it doesnt hinder my experience that much.

    Its definitely an experience worth playing through at least one time.

    Although it seems like a good game to distribute bullets, it has a game structure that continues with a strange integrity. Even if it goes well, you will throw the game into a corner as soon as it starts to repeat itself. It's a clichéd revenge story, with some poorly executed parts. It's just a "basic" game. Not very bad but not very well. It could be better. -5

    Good (but a little short) story and lovely story telling. Clear mechanics, easy to control. Weapons are not very versatile. Arcade mode and duel challenge are fun too. Watch the "Call of Juarez Gunslinger Launch Trailer", it's the most honest and descriptive trailer I've ever seen.

    Short and peppy shooter for a couple of evenings. Very cool style and good storytelling. The graph for the game 9 years ago looks quite nice. You should not expect much from this game, but it is quite possible to run through it.

    We need more games like Gunslinger. It's great fun, the shooting mechanics are amazing, the arcade feel of the game is super fun and the game doesn't take 200 hours to complete. It's very short actually, but it has the perfect length for the style of game it's going for. This game is definitely an unexpected gem that goes back to the roots of really fun single-player arcade shooters.

The skill trees are nice, each with their own unique and fun abilities. I especially loved the gameplay. It's extremely fun. You can choose between these weapons: the rifle, sixshooter, quickshooter, ranger, shotgun and sawed off shotgun. Best part? With the akimbo skill, you can dual wield revolvers and sawed off shotguns! And I have to mention the legendary weapons. You can gain legendary weapons in the skill tree and they replace the normal ones. They're great. They're powerful, but of course, they don't make the game too easy. There always are a lot of enemies and you die in a few hits. You can choose between normal, hard and True West difficulties. True West is brutal. You unlock it by beating the game once. Also, after you beat the game you can play again with all your abilities unlocked. You don't just shoot enemies though. You can throw dynamite, blow up dynamite in the air, melee kill enemies. You also have a concentration meter, which you can use at anytime to slow down time. You also have your sense of death, which you can use to dodge a deadly bullet once every few seconds. All of this makes a very fun and exciting combat. The bosses are great, too. The story isn't great, but it's enough. It's not bad, but it isn't good either. It's fine. The levels are fun and the graphics are pretty good as well. I really loved the art style. When you meet new bosses, they're drawn in a very beautiful and cool style. Now, the duels. The duels were infuriating for me at first. The game limits your movement. You can't move, but you can dodge. I didn't know you could dodge bullets so I absolutely hated the duels. After I beat the game for the first time I realized you could dodge. So now the duels aren't that bad, but I still don't like them. You have to hover over the enemy with the crosshair or whatever it's called to focus on the enemy. It doesn't sound too bad, but the crosshair is constantly moving and if it moves off the enemy, you lose focus. After around 30 seconds, the enemy draws their weapon and you can shoot him. You can draw your weapon before he draws his, but if you do that you're dishonored and you lose XP you could gain. Anyways, this is a great game. The combat is fun and exciting, the story is good enough and the art style and graphics are good. The duels are the only bad parts in my opinion. Great game! Expand

    The actual core gameplay was fun, but (playing this on Hard) was annoying. I found it fairly easy to get through the waves of enemies, but the boss fights were beyond frustrating as they could kill you within 5 seconds. They would shoot you to no end, run and hide, rinse and repeat. I wish every boss battle was a duel at that point.

    The story, which isn't a huge selling point of the game, wasn't that interesting either. Just moving from bad guy to bad guy.

    If you enjoy FPS arcade shooters, you'll love this! However, it's not my thing.

    Un gioco che ho adorato.
    Cercherò di recensirlo abbastanza brevemente ma toccando ogni punto.

    Grafica e audio:
    Narratore fenomenale e audio al limite tra ironia/stereotipo e realismo.
    Stile grafico bellissimo che simula fumetti e film western.

    Storia:
    Storia non particolarmente degna di nota ma molto divertente in quanto sviluppata come se fosse il racconto del protagonista in una locanda, solo che ogni tanto sbaglia a raccontarla o esagera certi elementi per enfatizzare il racconto e tutto questo si ripercuote nel gioco (a volta ci sono pure dei rewind per correggere gli errori).

    Gameplay:
    Stile di gioco molto divertente e particolare. Il movimento del giocatore è libero però i livelli sono fatti in modo da essere estremamente lineari e creano situazioni in cui l'unica soluzione è nascondersi per poi sparare ai nemici quando si scoprono. Sembra un gioco arcade da sala giochi, però in teoria potresti affrontare i nemici anche corpo a corpo. Inoltre ogni elemento distrutto o nemico ucciso dà dei punti, proprio come fosse un arcade, e questo porta il protagonista a migliorare le proprie abilità e armi. Poi alla fine di ogni livello c'è una difficile boss fight e successivamente bisogna sfidare il ricercato di turno in un duello. Ecco, i duelli sono una cosa meravigliosa, al punto che è disponibile una modalità di gioco con solo quelli.
    È presente anche un'altra modalità con dei livelli veloci da completare scegliendo le armi che si vogliono usare.

    È uno dei miei giochi preferiti ma una volta completato non ha molto senso rigiocarlo, quindi la longevità non è altissima. Inoltre se avesse una qualche modalità online sarebbe perfetto.

    I liked Bound in Blood, but i hated the approach Techland took for Gunslinger. With cel shaded graphics, the 'realism' factor is basically ditched into the bin. Instead they made it into an arcade shooter. It was insulting for me.

    Shooting weapons in this game is ecstatic to say the least. Story-telling is awesome, as well as the voice-acting.
    Story mode isn't that long however you'll still have arcade mode to farm up those points and get to a decent place in the leaderboards for each mission.

    -Introductions to new characters in the levels is very original and very well done
    -The duels are fun

    Cons:
    I can't think of any real cons at the moment. It's a game that is worth 15 dollars, but at the same time, you feel like you could have spent more and still wouldn't have been disappointed.

En esta puedes mejorar y personalizar a tu personaje como quieras para ser mejor con el revólver, escopeta, rifle, etc...como si de un juego de rol se tratase y con varios secretos esparcidos por los escenarios dónde te cuentan anécdotas, sucesos, así como información sobre grandes personajes del western americano como puede ser, por ejemplo, Bill El Niño, que por cierto este y otros nos ayudarán en las misiones y tendrán participación en la historia :D

    Y esto es sólo el modo campaña, que dura 7-10 horas más o menos, pero es bastante rejugable si quieres recoger algún secreto que se te ha perdido o cosas así por el estilo. Luego existen otros modos como puede ser el arcade y el duelos que te dan también varias horitas más de diversión al juego.

    En definitiva, un shooter fresco y carismático que se merece que le echéis, por lo menos, un vistazo ;)

    While the actual shooting is fun everything else is awful. The dueling controls suck, way too much crap on screen during action, linear yet unapparent level layout, bullet spongy enemies, unnecessary and bad platforming. Reminds me of a bad shooter from the 90s.

    A good western and a good action movie, no more and no less. True, "good" does not mean "outstanding" - like many other good fighters, Gunslinger is rather brief, does not disdain obvious self-repetitions, and scripts in it are not always in place.

Z minusów należy wymienić przede wszystkim liniowość etapów oraz brak swobody w poruszaniu się - co przy grze tego typu powinno być dużo bardziej rozbudowane. Przejście gry zajęło mi niecałe 5 godzin, co również nie wpływa na jej korzyść. Jeśli jesteście fanami Dzikiego Zachodu, to gra będzie doskonałą okazją, by przybliżyć sobie ten burzliwy okres w dziejach Ameryki. W innym przypadku możecie sobie ten tytuł odpuścić. Jeśli chodzi o mnie - to bawiłem się całkiem nieźle. Panowie i Panie, przygotujcie więc broń, siodłajcie wierzchowce i w drogę ku zachodzącemu słońcu!

    + klimat Dzikiego Zachodu
    + „prawdziwe” postacie

    But in the dash as is the plot. It is not that interesting, but in the main feed. The story is the protagonist, but it can interrupt other characters that even affect gameplay! In the end, you follow the plot, amusing dialogue, and for the next change in the narrative, for example when you shoot from the height of the Indian, and then after corrections of the story begin to shoot cowboys. It should be noted that this part of CALL OF JUAREZ has nothing to do with the wonderful first part and no less wonderful BOUND IN BLOOD. Good thing she is much better than the forgotten The Cartel. But nothing more than shooting from the game don't wait.
    In addition to the story itself, you can entertain mode "arcade", where you simple to earn points for the murders and "duel" mode, where you can train in duels.
    CALL OF JUAREZ: GUNSLINGER - this playful shooting gallery, sorry no interesting story. But the game did not promise it, the important thing here is shooting, and it was made perfectly!

    * Cool historical references
    * The story and how it is told to the character from Silas' view.

    Negative:
    * Some unexplainable fps drops here and there. Nothing crazy though! :)
    * Level design is relatively linear
    * The duel idea (aka boss fights) is cool, but I wish they could have built on it with more variety (additional minigames, maybe both duelist are unnarmed, but there is a gun near each one so they have to catch it and shoot first, or during a duel some henchman jumps in to save his boss, so you have to get rid of him first before shooting the boss, etc...)

You take the role of one Silas Greaves, quick-shooting, hard-drinking bounty hunter who rolls into Abilene, Kansas one day in 1910 for a drink and winds up relating the story of his life to his fellow bar patrons. This provides the framing device for a series of pitched gunfights as the fictional Silas goes on a Forest Gump-ian trip through the old West, coming face to face with a long list of real outlaws of history. Gunslinger takes advantage of the cult of mystique that time in history has accrued, and the mysterious circumstances surrounding the deaths of some of these outlaws, to weave a tall tale of robbery and revenge that is just far-fetched enough to be plausible. Silas earns experience from his kills and levels up, giving the player a point to spend in Gunslinger, Ranger and Trapper skill trees, which upgrade revolvers, lever-action rifles and shotguns, respectively. You can also throw dynamite, and use bullet-time, upgrades for both are seeded through all three skill trees. It is possible to earn all skills eventually, though this will take more then one playthrough. When Silas comes up against a legend of the west, the player will engage in a duel minigame that has you focus his sight on target, adjust his hand for a faster draw, and then choose to shoot before or after your opponent draws for a dishonorable or honorable kill. Scattered throughout the story levels are collectibles called "Nuggets of Truth" that when found confer an experience bonus and give you some real historical background about the people, places, events and objects you see on your journey. In addition to Normal and Hard, there is a "True West" difficulty mode unlocked after completing the game once that disables your hud. Aside from the story, there is an arcade mode with pre-made levels distinct from the story, and a duel mode that comprises additional dueling challenges. Gunslinger is alive with a vibrant, cell-shaded art style, excellent voice acting, sound and music, and overall presents an incredible deal for the price. If you have not played a Call of Juarez game before, as was the case with me, you should probably start here. A must play for any Western fan. Expand

    "New Game +" allows for additonal plays through the campaign keeping the skill-tree progress you've developed by gaining experience points (from headshots/combos/etc). Occasionally, the gameplay feels a bit like "Where's Waldo?" since most of the enemies hide behind cover or blend in with environment, but there's a huge variety among the 15 levels. I personally favored the dual 6-shooters, but found that more powerful weapons (the ranger, rifle, shotgun, dynamite, etc) were necessary to succeed in later levels. Overall a great gaming experience.

The latest entry in Techland's western franchise pulls out all the stops and delivers a wonderfully satisfying Western shooter experience with a delicious helping of plot mixed in as well.

    Call of Juarez: Gunslinger follows the story of Silas Greaves - or rather, it follows the story of him recounting his recollections to a group of incredulous bar patrons. And they have a right to be incredulous as he makes increasingly outlandish claims, from inadvertently starting the Gunfight at the OK Corral to riding with Billy the Kid and claiming to have killed various famous figures of the period, including Newman Hayes "Old Man" Clanton, George "Flat-Nose" Curry, two of the Dalton Brothers and even Jesse James himself, but one unmistakeable detail remains clear - for very personal reasons he had been hunting Roscoe "Bob" Bryant, a man who had wronged him many years ago.

    The gameplay has you playing through Silas's alcohol-addled recollections, which often change and shift as Silas tells his tale - ranging from bridges or paths miraculously appearing to an entire army of Apaches DISappearing. As unreliable a narrator as he is though, you just have to love Silas, as well as the characters he speaks with in the bar. All of them have much more personality than the standard FPS player-goons, and indeed the game's plot rides largely on these characters and the interactions they have with each other. As you play you find yourself eagerly following Silas's story, no matter how fanciful or nonsensical it may be, and at the end you'll find a twist which will leave you quite surprised.

    To call the gameplay typical, no-nonsense FPS fare would be doing it a grave disservice. This game takes the FPS formula and turns it up to 11. Almost every other second you're ploughing through hordes of bandits and outlaws with a rifle, a shotgun or a pair of trusty revolvers, all of which are immensely satisfying to use. It's like playing through a spaghetti western; no expense is spared on the action at all and very rarely is there a moment where everyone isn't up in arms, all guns blazing.

    But that's not all - at the end of most of the levels you'll take part in a standoff with one of many characters, and with these the game changes dramatically. Whereas in the levels proper you'll be shooting baddies willy-nilly, in a Standoff things are much different. You'll have to carefully balance your focus and your hand position to get the best draw speed and accuracy to kill your opponent (or on occasion, opponentS) before they do the same to you. Alternatively you can just up and shoot them first, but that results in the game penalises you for killing your opponent "dishonourably"; the loading screen menus also remind you that "history will remember you as a coward" if you do this. These tense, high-focus standoffs serve as a satisfying break from the action, whilst also elevating the game's challenge - I'd often find myself dying in standoffs about as many times as I did in the whole preceding level.

    The weapons used in the game aren't very varied but neither were the weapons of the Wild West time period. There's four different sidearms, that's three pistols and one revolver, a rifle with a "sawed off" variant which appears later in the game and a shotgun, making for seven weapons total, so while the weapons choice is limited as per the time period restraints, anything more would feel like too much. You can pick your favourite sidearm and couple it with a primary weapon to match, depending on whether you prefer fighting at range or in close quarters.

    This perfectly balanced variation on the weaponry is complimented by a perk system, allowing you to upgrade Silas's abilities in relation to your play style. Gaining perks also allows you to unlock Legendary weapons - slight misnomers in that they are actually upgrades to the default weapons. The entire system provides a great incentive to try different play styles to find which one suits you the most - my trusty rifle and six-shooters saw me through most of the game.

    Critics compared the first Call of Juarez to a "more refined Oblivion". If that is true then one could also compare Gunslinger, to a more refined Wolfenstein or Doom. It has fantastic, high-octane gameplay, a gripping story (even if not all of it is true) and all in all is one of the best FPS games I've played in a while, as well as the best Wild West shooter I've EVER played.

    To be fair, I've played Call of Juarez twice in easy mode. The game has many qualities, even if some aspect of the gameplay are sometimes confusing or frustrating.

    First, it's a story-driven game ("aka constrained"). It's like a journey into the legends of the Wild West along with bounty hunter Silas Greaves. The recreation of the old west is pleasant and inventive. If you pay attention to the story, the game ending might not be a complete surprise, though.

    The most pleasant part of the gameplay is (in my opinion), to shoot with two revolvers in your hand. You can still aim and there is no strange "left click for left gun / right click for right gun" scheme. Just click and deliver.

    Two other mechanics are also interesting : Focus (time slows down and enemies are highlighted) and Cheat Death (time slows down and you can either lean left or right to dodge bullets). You feel like the real deal.

    On the other hand, the game suffers from the fact that sometimes you just can't see who's shooting at you unless you expose yourself to receive a bullet and track down the shooter (the same problem that plagues ROTT Redux).

    A last note about the Duel section. The game mechanics completely changes here, you have to position your hand to gain speed, and place a moving target on your opponent to gain accuracy. Once you feel you you have enough of both, you can either shoot before your opponent (not honorable) or shoot after he has drawn and dodge a bullet (honorable). Even if the mechanic is inventive, you really cannot capitalize on it since a duel is kind of draining (especially if you loose) and can drive you out of the game.

    But it's a good game anyway :) At least one I enjoyed from the CoJ serie !

Even better, the action is framed by a narration that affects gameplay as the old gunslinger gets his stories mixed up or the audience interjects in the middle of the fights. Amusing and charming, it's a great little western tale wrapped up in a great shooter for a great price. What I'm saying is it's great.

    The duel mechanic takes a little getting used to, and feels needlessly awkward at first, but once I got good at the three-eyed stare required, it made me feel pretty awesome. Don't give up if you find yourself getting stuck on those bits, you'll get better.

    Then there are the cut scenes. Kind of neat at first but then you see the guy is like the Forest Gump of the Western world. He/you just happen to know all the famous outlaws and cross paths with them all.

    Goes from a sort of tolerating humor to being overrun and sanctimonious. I don't want a game telling me so and so outlaw was really a nice person and is just understood and so on.
    The designer(s) of this game took them self a little to seriously.
    At least if I could only skip these dialogs, but many you can't.

    GAMEPLAY
    First player perspective with few different guns going through tunnels that are to look like open areas. No interactive surfaces, very simple movement. Enter map, crouch behind a house, point and shoot. Only one route and only one way of dealing with your enemies. Loads of scripted scenes with hundreds of mindless AI.
    I wouldn`t have a problem with it if it wasn`t for the silly sequences where the player ends up surrounded by swarms of enemies spawning repeatedly. You shoot them, a boss appears, you shoot him aaaaaand cutscene. And the whole playthrough goes like this. Very little variety.
    Great part is the duel feature. You use wsad and mouse to ready your hand and you reach it with mouse button and shoot. Fairly simple and cool to use. Every duel is a little different as the player faces historical characters throughout. Overall makes for a good break material in between the usual go there and shoot stuff. The thing is that after a play like that you would want something more, but no. You shoot the guy one on one, then the usual fpp stuff continues to the end.
    The guns look and feel good. Shooting is ok, the hands working look ok. There are some special ‘golden’ guns but besides some special features like +50% reload speed or damage there is nothing more to them. You pick`em, because you`re tired of seeing shot enemies get up again and again.
    Player special skills that you unlock are not interesting at all. Reload wile running, longer focus time, better zoom etc. They`re ok but don`t change the gameplay enough to keep it interesting after the first positive impression that lasts about 1-2 hours.

    STORY
    Cliche. Linear adventures with corny dialogues. A tiny bit little twist right at the very end of the story. Bunch of screens, great storytelling by a nice old man like voiceover. Not bad but like I said, nothing new here.
    There are some collectibles called “Nuggets of truth” that are fairly easy to see. You collect them so you can enter a menu with some very interesting notes and stories about the Wild West as a whole. Gives a nice insight to the story, explains some wild west famous mysteries - written quite well and concise so I enjoyed reading all of them.

    GRAPHICS
    Cell like graphic style similar to Borderlands with comic like additions. Whether one likes it is totally dependant on one`s taste. Looks good and works well on most PCs. I can`t really say anything more. The environment, maps, models, guns, everything looks alright.

    MUSIC
    Good western music. Slow when storytelling, fast when there is action. Makes up for most of the game`s mood. Overall sound quality is top notch and about the only feature in this game I`d say that is better than average.

    I really enjoyed this game, more than I thought I would. Nice 6-7 hour romp through the Wild West with a pretty solid narration/story as you go. Good fights and areas, nice duels, good pacing.

Walking in the boots of a famous bounty hunter as he recalls the story through his eyes as he narrates brings really neat gameplay elements such as someone calling him on his bluff, and an element of gameplay changes mid battle. Its humorous and witty writing really delivers this short but entertaining adventure through the West. What Gunslinger really nails is the shooting mechanics, pulling off headshots and barrages is extremely satisfying as a result of the good use of blood and pacing which sees the story take you from a standoff to a train robbery. While being a small but well packaged downloadable, Call of Juarez Gunslinger really nails the fun of shooting it up like a spaghetti western, something previous COJ games failed to capture. Expand

Shooting enemies never felt this satisfactory in a game before. Pulling off those headshots and seeing my enemies fall to the ground in a heap of blood felt so good. There's also three skill trees present in which you can upgrade your abilities. That was a nice touch. However having said that, there are a few problems. The duelling sections were overused and there was a lack of gun variety. Sure, I felt really attached to some of the guns I used but I wish there were more guns available. Furthermore I believe that the game needed a multiplayer mode. All in all, Gunslinger is a damn fun game but overall lacks in gameplay variety (no multiplayer, overused duels). Expand

    A Linear Cowboy Shooter that knows it's a simple shoot em' up, but uses that to it's advantage.

I went all rifles/pistols on the first playthrough and all shotguns on the second), graphics that deeply reminded me of Borderlands (in other words, awesome graphics), super fun gameplay (you can slow time after getting some kills by pressing Q, kinda like Red Dead Redemption), great humor, a low asking price (I got it for all of 3$ during a sale on steam, and it was soooooo worth it) and real life lore you can find to learn about actual cowboys from the past (Doc Holiday, Billy the Kid, ect.). If you're playing through the game on Steam, there is an extremely handy guide on how the duels work, which I highly reccomend you take a look at.

    one of the best FPS I have ever played. It just feels great when you shoot a guy and his blood just spurts out like a fountain. and the duel mode is very well made, and intense.

    Yeah it's a short rails-shooter, but the mechanics are solid and the story is more compelling than many hyped full length games (Bioshock: Infinite I'm thinking of you...)

For 15 dollars, this game is a complete steal. Its only flaw is the lack of replay value. The only form of "replay" aspect is a new-game+ like what Batman: Arkham Origins did. You keep your skills from the last run, but enemies get stronger? I never really noticed. Towards the end of the game, you get to be ridiculously overpowered, having the game autoaim for you and rack up headshots like aimbot in Modern Warfare 2. But, the game takes 10-15 hours to complete, arcade mode will add up to about 5 hours, and this makes Call of Juarez: Gunslinger the underrated gem that it is. While the game does lack setpieces and prefers a lead-throwing romp playstyle, it is executed so well that it's easily forgivable.
    Pick this game up for its normal value, DEFINITELY pick it up if it's on sale. This could knock out a weekend.
    It's no game that'll last you forever like Payday 2 or Terraria, but it can definitely be revisited if you feel like dumping a day into some damn good gunslinging. Oh, and the voice acting is badass.

    Fun, short game.
    The action is quite alright, but it's certainly not excellent - AI sucks, you're just running around for headshots for bigger combos, etc.
    The duels are interesting.. I guess. But the game would need quite a bit more variety. The narrative is not terrible and I really liked how the storytelling memory vs actual accounts kept messing it up in actual gameplay.

    However, both the narrative and the action are just a bit too "unreal" for my taste, getting a bit boring with "oh yes, and then there was the time where I killed 100 guys in the same way for the same reason getting the same result and probably this didn't actually happen.."

    Nice! West, duels, no hud, no hints, challenging fights, chickens and cows. What else do you want? It is little more than a rail shooter, but a very nice and good at that. And the plot is also quite nice, narrator and voice actors in general good good good. 85/100, going to master all the challenges now.

    The game while in a great setting and solid mechanics fails to use this potential. After a strong start while fresh the game quickly becomes highly repetitive and a chore to finish.

    That being said it is still quite fun but it fails to keep those levels up.

    The Call of Juarez series has had its ups and downs over the years, but Gunslinger stands proud—not only against its own checkered past, but against the FPS genre as a whole. It may not be a subtle or particularly nuanced experience, but it's certainly a cracking good time delivered with a style and confidence that's rarely seen in a full-priced title, let alone a $15 download.

    Call of Juarez returns to western genre, and that is fine. A pity though, it imitates itself, even its competition. However, this story is worth it even without a happy-ending. [Issue#231]

    Don’t mistake price for quality – this is a top-notch shooter, limited in resources but not in heart.
