[GUN]First Impressions

[SpaceBass]

I'm really digging this game too. There are some big names for voice talent (Kris Kristofferson, Ron Perlman, Tom Skerritt), the acting is great, I dig the story, and the gameplay is pretty nice. I especially like the animation on the horseys!

I so suck at racing that stupid horse. I am gonna be stuck at that part of the game for time immemorial.

This happened with Halo, too. I hated driving the warthog, and then I learned that you can't freaking finish CE without learning how to drive it well.

@#!%@!!!

Grrr.

Yeah, the voice acting is great. And the easy way in which you get criticized in the first bit is pretty awesome. The timing and pacing of some of the interactions is very, very smooth.

I'm really enjoying it, my roommate and I were up really late last night taking turns trying to kill Hollister and then Creed. Her sister woke up to so someone shouting "shoot the preacher in the head."



It's been a little more violent than I expected. I couple of the cut scenes I had to turn away from. It really deserves the M rating.

Just waiting for Jack Thompson to brand it a horse-stealing/Indian killing trainer.

I suppose it's telling that I spent a few minutes this morning before work doing that horse race a few more times until I won.

BUT I WON

Muahahahahahahaha!

hehe, horse fairy.

I was hoping the horse could be a bit more permanent. After all, any good Cowboy has a deep connection with his horse. Being able to build its stats and stuff would have been fun.

But maybe if Gun is successful we'll get a longer, deeper sequel! Not that this one is bad, there just isn't enough of the good stuff. I say this judging by the fact that I'm already more than halfway through the game, even with doing most of the side missions.

Picking up my copy today, 12 hours doesn't sound exciting (usually the only games I buy are extremely long epics, such as the Xenosaga series which weighed in at 80+). Though from the screenshots and videos, it definitely looks interesting.

I'd like it a lot better if I could somehow stop dying. That would be neat.

I am not a gamer, but I like it. It's got an interesting story. And the females have large... personalities! Okay, so what if they are digital personalities...

[Bethling]

I did it. Somehow I killed Magruder and won

First time in a couple of years that I managed to win a game!

Wish it had been a little longer, but I'm really happy that I picked it up.

[jamesi]

Yeah, I just finished it as well. Short, but sweet.

[konamouse]

Okay, I don't know who is swearing more, Magruder or my husband.

[thunderclap8]

it took me a while to figure that out...

[jsailor]

I beat it on with 100%, not including gold mining...

When you get 100%:
