You look at the Videos, trailers, but you don't really get much info on the game in itself.. Never the less, Call of Juarez is a awesome first person shooter.. The controls are easy to get use to. The covering controls are unlike any other game out there. Gameplay will resemble Brothers in Arms' game, but the gameplay is a lot more user friendly.
Starting off in the Civil War, 1864.. You play the McCall Brothers, Thomas and Ray McCall.
Thomas McCall is a bit more quick stepped, agile, and strategic in his gun play methods. Being able to wield silent weapons, the Bow and throwing knives. Thomas can also climb obstacles using his lasso.
Ray McCall is the type, to run into fire with his guns blazing. Ray uses more aggressive strategies, wielding dynamite, and is able to carry the Gatling gun. Ray prefers blowing threw obstacles instead of going around them.
Taking place back in the olden times, of the late 1800s; The McCall brothers were Confederates in the Civil War. Before the war was even over, the McCall brothers got tired of listening to they're superior officer and decided to leave the Confederacy. Doing so made them become Outlaws, but they wanted to do what they thought was right.
Ubisoft and Techland have made a Gem of a game. Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, will not be for most gamers. The reason being.. Call of Juarez is a realistic, Western, first person shooter, but not at all rusty in the game play or environment. This game really sets you into the Wild West. The world of Call of Juarez is vibrant, lush, and rich in depth. The AI is very aggressive and is quick on the draw. The motion is by far the most dynamic in ANY first person shooters, and even has the most tactical online FPS game play.
The reason I gave it a 9, was because they could have done more with the game play. Even though you can select who you are, there is just one story. There isn't a endless map either, each level is staged off, but there is a couple stages you do explore in.
