| FiringSquad Summary:
Overall, it’s too bad that Gun was scheduled as it is – if it had started development a year earlier, it could have been a truly excellent Xbox or PS2 title. If it had been designed from the get-go as a next-generation game, it would have taken advantage of the features of the 360 and upcoming PS3. Right now it just straddles that uncomfortable boundary of “what might have been”. Description:GUN is another Neversoft title, a well-written western that could have benefited from another 6 months to a year of development. However, it seems that the release of the new consoles forced Activision’s hand and they let it loose while its graphics were still acceptable – on the old systems. We’re sad to say that GUN falls into the same category as NHL 2K6, in that it’s now capable of higher resolutions, but not much more.  ADVERTISEMENT
