Ignore Stupid Pete's rambling, he's dead now. Gun is quite simply, the piece de resistance of Wild West gameplay. But Red Dead Revolver is its only competition and that was not as gory, gripping and great as Gun. The games starts off simple. You and your father are hunting Elk to sell on a steamboat. You spend about 6 mins doing this and then you're on the steamboat. Then the steamboats being attacked and then you wake up on the shore after being told by you father that:
He's not your father
To go to the Alhambra and find Jenny
You go there after a little horse tutorial and then bam, the Alhambras being attacked and no wait its over, then you repair the bridge, get to Empire and then work for this guy but then oh the guys evil and....
The story which has massive potential but goes to quickly
The story ends on a high, the good guys win and you get some really cool guns in doing so. The game is not for the faint hearted. With a well placed shot from the rifle you can take the head off of anyone
When you lay your hands on the shotgun you can remove limbs the western way
Its also pretty satisfying to blow the legs off of the scum who oppose you
Your costume will also change depending on the plot
e.g you wear Indian garb when assaulting the fort with the Blackfoot tribe although its not clear why
A few more aspects such as more cities and a bigger main story and you got an award winning game.
Hopefully we will hear about a Gun 2 for the near future!

    I admit when I first heard about Gun I was very excitied. When I played it today I really loved the gameplay of the game though the shooting is fairly easy. Enemies are easy to pick off and drinking a whiskey bottle just... Read Full Review
