Has anyone picked this up yet? I don't know why but I've been buying more games lately, and this one I picked up. It's better than Red Dead Revolver, by far. Its free roaming, think GTA with a horse. Theres side missions, bounty hunting and poker games.

Now lets talk about the voice cast...

Thomas Jane is the main character, you might remember him from, oh, I don't know The Punisher?
Brad Dourif, was in Lord of the Rings, but was in a far better series of movies....Child's Play? And yeah, he does the Chucky voice in the game too.
Ron Perlman....Hellboy?
Chris Kristofferson....Dude...He's in Blade....

I was really excited about it but the reviews haven't been all that great.

The game may be short, but I dig it, its very wide open. And any game where you can see a whore get her throat slit infront of you is awesome to me.

I for one am really glad you're such a sophistocated person with such high standards.

I was going to buy it, but then I saw about 20 copies of it used at EB the day after it came out. That told me enough.

I had quite a chuckle over it. It's the exact same situation as Fable and Brute Force. One day later the stores were packed with used copies. Unfortunately, I bought Brute Force. I got $20 cdn on the trade-in.

I tend to find Free-roam games to be short. The story mode is usually short and then they add stuff to it to keep it exciting but the added stuff gets boring kinda fast so it's pointless. Good example of that is GTA...even with 2 player that game can't keep me playing for more then 15 minutes.

But that's just because you don't like it. Not because it's short. Those are two different things.

My dad got me this for PS2 for Christmas and I haven't played it yet. I feel so mature havin' this game cuz this my first M-rated game. Can't wait to try it out. Game Informer gave it an 8.75 out of 10 which is pretty good. What do you guys think of this game?
