After how profoundly reprehensible their last game was, they've got quite a hurdle of their past to overcome. I hope they've learned from it.

I actually really enjoyed Bound in Blood, though the Cartel looked like utter trash. Here's hoping this is good, as I enjoy a Western game.

I actually really kind of liked Bound in Blood. Hopefully this will follow in it's path rather than The Cartel..

Really don't think the borderlands-ish artstyle fits this AT ALL

I don't want to watch that, it gives me a glimpse of the next Red Dead and I can't wait.

I'm really hoping that this takes a page or two from Dead Island in terms of its open-endedness and really pushes the franchise forward. Bound for Blood seemed to be heading in the right track, but The Cartel was a massive derailing.

I just want more Western games. That's all. I'm really hoping this will be good.

With that said, the wiki says this is for XBLA and PSN? It's a downloadable game? That kind of scares me, as it's not really what I'm wanting in a Call of Juarez game. Hopefully it works out well though.
