Call of Juarez

DIBS!

Been checking this out for a while... looks pretty sweet. Played it yet? Tech demos looked awesome but I never got to see gameplay clips.
 
It's pretty fun. Not groundbreaking though or anything. It's a decent FPS.
 
I did watch a video of it last night... is there some sort of bullet-time? Thought I saw him slow down when he started blasting dudes in the mine shaft.

This is something that should be in every FPS made. Nothing beats a slow-motion shotgun blast to the face.
 
Played through the first couple episodes... good game but I can see why you'd find it boring. It's not a typical FPS in that you run and shoot everything that moves... the indian episodes revolves around stealthing your way through the levels while the preacher episodes are more gun-toting bible-thumping mayhem.

Nice environment though. For some reason the textures don't seem to be upscaling for higher resolutions so I still see a lot of jaggies. Lighting is fantastic, and the detail on clothing is pretty amazing. I'll play this one for a while but I have a feeling there's no rocket launcher, and no rocket launcher means no reason to continue playing.
 
I don't mind the pacing. Just wasn't interested in the story or the theme. The online modes are kinda wack also, i'll stay with bf2.

Story heats up relatively early. Interesting character rotation between protagonist and antagonist.

Environment is absolutely stunning.

It's no Bioshock (CoJ is completely non-fiction) but a decent time-filler nonetheless if you're looking for something to play.

Thanks again for the first key DM.
