Call of Juarez: Gunslinger XBLA hands-on - Techland's old Western shooter bounces back | OXM UK

OXM UK: "Now here's a series that's seen better days. Better decades, even. Last year's Old-West-meets-gangland-Mexico effort The Cartel was a hangover of a game, born of a wish to stretch the original's cowboy antics into something as sophisticated as a Red Dead Redemption. Thankfully, the series' XBLA debut is a humbler, less compromised shooter - a therapeutic mid-morning fry-up, if you will, which puts the emphasis squarely on blasting pop-up varmints in stylish ways."

It is a fun game and I love how the world changes around you as the narrator tells the story and lies about how things went down to liven things up for his audience.

I’m pretty sure that’s not what people were saying when it first released. If it was better received we’d probably of seen a sequel.

Actually it got a lot of praise from the few people who did review it, problem was the franchise had by then already burned it's reputation to ashes, this game was a final flashy firework before it was snuffed for those that stuck around. It was too little too late.

Duel in this was nerve wracking never seen a better game that nailed the focus and feel of tension of gun duel since.
Sound design was amazing as well.
Very fun western shooter.

Bad list ! But shooters aren’t the reason anyone buys a Switch

Why is it bad? Plus, I never mentioned in the article that shooters are the reason people buy a Switch.
