Best Western Game

Reviewed by kmag777 on June 09, 2009  |  report this review

Breaking away from overused spaghetti western archetypes, Gun draws its six shooters to deliver one of the most subversive, gripping, and powerful experiences to ever grace the West. Simply put, Sergio Leone would have killed for a script like this. Untamed, smoking barreled gameplay backs the ticking time bomb of a tale, allowing players to build great disdain for a wanted man, then moments later deliver justice by placing steel directly between his wretched eyes. Horse riding is used to great effect, but the surprisingly small world poisons the sensation of galloping across the high plains. The game also suffers from vesting too much faith in players actually completing optional missions, thus leading to a fairly short-lived critical path. However, if you take the time to explore every facet of Gun, it can easily be summed up as one of the most thrilling games of 360 launch title in 2005. The West has never been this wild.

Unlimited Whisky Bottles
Go to the Indian Hunter's hut. Once there, go to the building to the left of the hut. Go up the first set of stairs, and continue going straight. You should see a spout-type object coming out of the side of the building. Jump onto that spout, and walk toward the wall of the building. If done correctly, you should go through the wall, and into the inside of the house. Once inside, look to your left and you should see three whiskey bottles on the ground. You can pick these up as many times as desired and they will never go away.
