Although there are many flaws with this game, let me start out by pointing out that Gun is a very fun game to play and allows you to get your game fix in quick increments if you don't have the time. For the 360, the graphics definitely are sub-par, looking almost identical to an original XBox game with multiple collision incidences (something that Neversoft seems to be known for). Although there are many side missions, it almost seems like they were added because the main game was too short. Having said this, however, they did help immerse you in the atmosphere of the old west. There are many different types, from leading a cattle drive to capturing wanted criminals to delivering packages on the pony express. My biggest complaint, next to the graphics, is the computer A.I. Enemies seem to have a fairly short vision radius, allowing you to pick them off from a distance with head shots. At other times (especially on harder difficulties), certain missions seem impossible. Considering the anemic game selection for the 360, this game is a great rental--something you can enjoy playing for a few weeks, but can happily send back for something new.
