  I had read a few reviews back when this game came out on xbox and because of the reviews I had never played this game. Then christmas rolled around and I wanted some new games to play on my 360 so I asked for it for christmas. I played a few hours and then went back to perfect dark. Now I’m back to playing this one again and wow is this game amazing. I’m really enjoying it more than I did perfect dark or call of duty. Its just a really neat game with lots of different things to do. I heard that it was short so I’ve been doing every side mission I can and I am really trying to take my time with it. I really don’t understand all the gripes about this game. Are the graphics next gen? Um no but they’re not bad like some people say. The graphics look great on my widescreen monitor. But the biggest thing I don’t understand is the gripes about the controls. There’s nothing wrong with the controls. I think that too many people got used to halo controls and expect exactly the same thing which they’re close to the same controls. Either way I think this is a great game even if you do decide to rent it. Its different, its fun, and the story is very engaging. I’m praying that they’ll make a gun 2 and just make it bigger and longer. I’m really enjoying my time with this game.

  this game may have dated graphics but the game play is outstanding. I picked it up for 20$ and play it non stop a must play for someone who likes shooters and western games. Also has a great story.

  This game is pretty amazing. This game has an awesome story arc you will fall in love with how simple but good the story is. The graphics are probably where the game fails, the graphics are much better than the previous consoles but still isn’t awesome like some titles like Call of Duty 2 but will still satisfy you mainly because of no framerate problems. The music is probably what you would expect more like western style of music but you will probably be suprised how good the sound of the guns and everything else is. My main problem is that the game is a little short, but that doesn’t stop it from being one of the most amazing titles ever.

  Loved this game, people say its short but thats because there is no filler. Th story moves along at a good pace. Alot of really good gaming moments in this. Also not that it is a big deal, but the voice acting is superb. It helps the story so much. I love this game and I can see me playing it again. I can play good games over and over, with maybe a small break. Ths is one of my favorite games on the 360. Such great style. Musc = very good, voice acting = never seen better in a game, Gunplay = entertaining.

  That basically sums up this unrequited gem from the dawn of the 360. After picking this up for just over ten dollars, I was pleasantly surprised to find its incredibly fun. Granted, I played this on easy, for when I see a listing of easy, normal, hard, and insane, I read rather no frustration, some frustration, frustration, and homicidal rage primer. Even on easy this managed to be challenging at points.

  You play Cole, a hunter by trade. After your father and you drop off your latest chops to a steamboat, the boat is ambushed by a fake preacher and a detachment of confederate holdouts. After your father is killed, you run to Dodge City at his instruction, carrying a silver token that earns you a deathmark. The story follows like a fairly decent western as you try to unravel your fathers history and the plot of a rogue confederate general.

  Along the way, you play cards, hunt wild game, scalp bandits(or innocents), chase down outlaws, and serve as a dodge city deputy. All of these serve to increase stats and supply you with cash for gun upgrades and other improvements. Combat is incredibly fast, and while you can easily be overwhelmed by the materialization of a dozen brigands, your matrix like quick draw powers can easily even the score, and the mechanic is theatrical enough to not ever lose its charm. Sneaking and other non-combat mechanics are rather lame and overly useless, but you’ll not really notice. Voices and characters are detailed and engaging, and several voices are perfect for there parts, and despite the main character failing to impersonate Roland Deschain or Clint Eastwood, you’ll find yourself rooting for him all the same.

  Not much replay value, unless you’re a diehard gamerpointer and enjoy frustration, but its a fun experience, an easy 900-ish gamer points, and a story that’ll make you smile.

  Get the pun i made there? Anyway this game truly is incredible undoubtedly. Think a western GTA and you got this game. With all the charm of a real western and a huge area to explore at your own leasure.
  
  The detail of this enviroment is fantastic with everything going on that it is hard to keep track of the things going on around you. In this game you play colt an Indian on a journey of exploration to find out who he really is and on the way he comes across some evil men on a quest to destroy the apache indians just to find the lost city of gold.
  
  You mission if you choose to accept it is to stop the men and find the lost city for yourself.
  
  This game is very fun as you get to play cards and ride horse and just basically blast the hell out of everyone who gets in your way. You will love this game if your a GTA fan and you will just adore it if you aren’t.

  Purchased Activision’s XBox “Gun” as a gift. My experience is with PS2 Gun has been excellent, good graphics, sound, competitive, best of several Activision games I own, among others. I would like to see and buy a “Gun II. Not enough Westerns on today’s market…mlck

  I just spent about an hour watching a friend play Gun for the XBOX 360. Then i got to play for a few hours. While it is disappointing for the graphics not to be better on the new system, i think we all need to remember that this game was not designed or built specificly for the 360. As with all new systems, it takes a few games before designers are even beginning to tap the potential of new hardware.
  
  This game is downright FUN! While it is indeed too short (only about 5 hours or so) if you just play through the story mode, but if you do the side missions and actually care about completeing a game, then GUN is a great buy. You can spen hours alone playing in the card games to earn money for upgrades and such. Also, while the first few bounty missions are extremely simple, they do get harder, and if you try to “subdue” rather than just kill to get extra money it can indeed be challenging at times. The graphics, while not designed for 360, are still very good. The attention to detail is great, when you shoot a guy in the head a piece of his skull will fly off from the side you shoot him on, meaning there are numerous different death or wounding patterns to see and make happen. My favorite from a few minutes ago was shooting a guy in the side of his head and having his eye fly from the socket. Overall I would buy this game, because i am willing to spend the time completeing the game and exploring it for all it is. In fact, i’m going to go out and get it now.
