Set in the untamed West of the late-1800s, GUN is a free-roaming action-adventure game that takes players to a world without laws where greed, lust and murder are rampant. As Colton White, a vengeful gunslinger, players must straddle the line between good and evil as they showdown against corrupt lawmen, a murderous preacher, renegade army psychopaths, merciless outlaws and unforgiving Native Americans, while waging war on horseback, collecting bounties, and commandeering trains. WorthPlaying (http://www.WorthPlaying.com) had a chance to check out a near final build, here is a snip :
On the Xbox 360, GUN looked good. Fine, so it's not spectacular, but it's a launch title, and there are tons of current-gen consoles out there, so it is rather nice that they spent their time optimizing it for those platforms instead of ignoring them altogether. That said, it's not as if they ignored the X360 either. GUN has received its share of criticism for graphics quality on the 360, but at the end of the month, we'll see how much of that criticism was actually warranted. It seems like many have been a little too harsh, and after all, if given a choice between excellent control and excellent graphics, most would choose the former.
