It started out ok but it took a wrong turn with the same old FPS formula. The characters interactions were ok when they talked to each other but not during game play. I am not a big co op player but this game should have been. The story would ...

The game features great visuals that run surprisingly well on most modern PC’s, some fantastic setpieces, an interesting story that adds extra depth to the characters from the first game, and western-themed multiplayer which ...

Two Guns are Better than One

I've been a pretty staunch defender of the original Call of Juarez. Despite it's somewhat rough appearance and some creative, but ultimately failed gameplay choices, it was a surprisingly fun and interesting romp through a tragically under-utilized setting in video games, the Old West. Despite its somewhat limited appeal, apparently ...

This game is kind of all over the map. There are parts the work really well, other parts that almost work well, and large chunks where it falls flat on its face.I agree with Jeff's review that the story is one of the game's strongest points, but I still found ...

Videogames with a Western theme are pretty rare. What exactly goes on in a development studio when the team is thinking about designing a new first person shooter? No doubt loads of guys would shout out "World War 2", but what happens when some guy shouts out "Spaghetti Western"? Do ...

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a lot of things. The gameplay is pretty average with the exception of features like the slow-mo sequences, and character selection. The on rails parts break up the bulk of the game. The gameplay grows thin and by the end, but it ends ...
