    If the graphics were better, or the game longer this would be a solid 9. Despite those two problems, this is an incredibly fun game. Especially in light of the dearth of 360 games at the current time, this is one you should play. Gun is clearly not an example of the power of the 360, there can be no doubt about that, but still a super fun game.

    I like this game. I don't love it, but I like it. It's a good 3rd Person Shooter and was the closest thing at the time to having a wild west version of GTA, before Red Dead Redemption came along. One flaw I think this game has is the lack of an auto-save. I had to learn the hard way that this game doesn't save automatically. Other than that, it's good.

    A skillfully crafted work of art that delivers a high level of entertainment from start to finish, especially in high-definition and Dolby Digital audio (highlighted by great western music). But Gun won't jump out at you as a next-gen technological masterpiece--it's just too early for that.

    You've got a rich and compelling narrative, a twitch-happy gun mechanic, and a big landscape in which to explore. On the other hand, the controls are loose and a little sloppy, the targeting perimeter around each character is way too big and forgiving, so it's easy to be a bad shooter, and the vast landscape doesn't have much in it.

    You'll likely be so enthralled by the riveting story that you simply won't notice the hours flying by. Of course, that's also due in no small part to the fact that the game is unsatisfyingly short.
