So I'm sure alot of us are stoked for Red Dead Redemption, but I was wondering while the genre may be small, has there been any Western game you played that you liked?

For me, it was in 1997. It was Lucasarts Outlaws game. A First-Person Shooter.

Outlaws was great. I played the crap out of that game. I was surprised at how open it was.

I beat Gun, and it was a pretty good ride. I have Red Dead Revolver sitting on my shelf, factory-wrapped because I haven't gotten to it yet.

You may be thinking of Sunset Riders. I enjoyed that one when I was younger...both in the arcades and on my Genesis. Also, Gun is only a few years old. That game was okay, also.

I've pretty much liked them all. They mostly play it safe though so i'm hoping RDR gets it right. I want to see a property saloon fight with some fisticuffs first that then may boil over to a shootout... many western games skip the melee and go straight to the guns. but I like the original Red Dead Revolver for its quirky multiplayer Gun for it's freeroaming and the callof juarez games for their stories. of course sunset riders for the Mexican with the shotgun

I have to agree with Sunset Riders. I had a ton of fun (and lost quarters) with this game. I think it eventually came out for SNES, can't recall if I ever played it though. Gun was an amusing game, and it did many things right. I just don't think it was widely appreciated since the western is kind of a niche genre.

Sunset Riders is all I can think of, honestly. I've never been much for western games.

I played Blood Bros. in the arcades. That was a great game growing up with. I also played Gun and enjoyed that immensely. I think that's about it.

Is there any western game I haven't played? :P Outlaws, Call of Juarez, Gun, Dead Man's Hand, Desperados, Red Dead Revolver... you name it, I have it. I even played and beaten the horrendous Western Outlaw (3.0 on gamespot, look it up), and the horrid Gun Warrior and Wanted Guns. That should give you the picture of how Western-happy and how hyped for Red Dead Redemption I am.

The only Western I've ever really played is Sunset Riders.
