Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

Wow, What a ride! This game makes you want to coninue playing even when your too tired to play. The narration was great, The graphics are outstanding. Absolutely flawless scripting. And the terrain and objects were incredible. This is a game that you can replay for years, Or just continue finding more secrets. I had so much fun, That it's going to be hard to find another game that matches up to this one. I bought the whole set of games on sale, And I'm glad I did, That was great.

Okay, giving 5 stars cause like the game type, for others probably 4 stars but still great game TLDR; pros: -Flashy gunplay, numbers flying around -Great sense of action -Aged well cons: -Bit short -Not great graphics (but are) -minor nuissances Okay so game overall is great. I like shooters that let you go guns blazing, killing stuff numbers flying, like doom style game or so. Even tho sometimes the flying stuff can block vision, note this happened to me like 2 times in whole story. Graphics aged well since its comic style graphics but also cause of that many times I could not see enemies, like where they were shooting from or stuff, bad lighting also adds to this, like very very high contrast in game where everything is outlined black. So looks fine but has those nuissances. Gunplay is fun and sounds give kick to weapons, combined with focus you feel like fastest hand in the west shooting 6 guys with 6 bullets and 6 headshots in 0.2 seconds. So feel is awesome but problem I have with gunplay is, well for me anyways, that all 3 types of pistols feel same (didnt test enough) and worst of all shotgun feels USELESS, it has range of 2m while fights are usually 5m+ and even if they are like 2cm from you, you can still miss since aim down sight is SO SO BAD on shotgun and misguiding and even than shotgun headshot from point blank can sometimes not kill enemy and you have to reload afer every 2 shots while rifle can easily deal 12 headshots on long and close range and reloads in same time, rifle is by far the best weapon and only rivaled by dual wielding but there is problem lack of ammo consumption. So very very good and satisfying but not much diversity. Lots of people hate repetition of duels but for me they were nice, through story you have like 10 of those duels and was nice from usual gameplay. Story is nice and interesting for me at least with some real life lore. With all problems game is probably 4 stars but i like those kind of shooters so 5 stars. RECOMMEND

Many already wrote about the design and the narrative, which are really great. Is it also for people who are not very used to First Person Shooters? Yes, I would say. I myself just played two shooters before (I don't even like them but for westerns) and it is more than possible on "normal" (after practising with this, even on "hard"). Plenty of ammo, fast healing, no annoying escort missions, rare time-critical parts and very fair autosave system. Con: balancing is not very good - mostly it is too easy, that is when you have some cover. When you don't it can become tricky and in (for me) two places it was even a bit frustrating, although with some practice and discovering kind of a strategy it was doable without trying for days. Con: it is very simple, you don't have much options e.g. to flank the enemy and they are kind of stupid too. Con: it is rather short (but it is not expensive either, though I would have paid more for some more and bigger town levels) Three cons, but the gameplay and the presentation are big fun, so it is a recommendation for some straightforward action.

After the horrible "Call of Juarez: The Cartel", Techland went back to their roots and created the best COJ. Highly recommended.

I could play this game for about an hour and then it freezes and crashes every time. Story mode and arcade mode. Yet another game from GOG that wont work. More money wasted. It seems like half the games I buy from you don't work.
