Nice GG photo dude; I played this as a kid religiously, and recently made it through blood meridian, so I’d be interested to see the connections. Great book, but funny enough, I don’t resonate with McCarthy for whatever reason. Finished a few of his books, prefer the lonesome dove style vibes…which I’m thinking about rereading the first here atm for some comfy coffee time reading. Cheers brother

I know how much people love RDR2, but there was something really special about Gun. I can't even remember how many times I played it over again. The voice acting cast, the writing, the soundtrack, and even the game play for that era was incredible! I never enjoyed RDR2 the same way that I found Gun satisfying. It's a shame they never did a sequel or a remake. It's way over due!

The voice acting, the story telling and the world building, albeit on a limited physics engine for its time made this game so great. It had a lot of heart and soul and you could tell the designers really loved this project. It really felt like a proper good vs evil western epic.

Gun is an amazing game! I played it so much and beat it multiple times. I still have my copy and ps2 and have played thru it again not that long ago. It still holds up and is alot of fun! I will forever love it

Great video on it. I honestly played this for the first time last years, since i ignored it during the PS2 days god knows why. This game is amazing for it's time and it's so well writte, well acted and it has a satisfying gameplay that really kept me engaged until the end. With a proper remake the game would be killer. I just love these compact worlds with a lot of activities to do around. I just wish you talked more about the minigames. I specially liked the hunting and sheriff ones. Though they are a bit underdeveloped compared to the rest, i liked them anyway. Another video you could make is on the Call of Juarez games BTW.

Thanks for putting this video together. I just finished playing Gun. I was surprised how engaged I was. I even have to disagree with you. I found the shorter length and excellent pacing actually to enhance the story. The game lasts just as much as the story. It was near perfect.

This game absolutely blew my mind when I first played it. It was the first game I’d ever played that had that much dialogue and story. And damn was the voice acting incredible. I’d never seen real actors doing videogame VO either. The story was top class. I’d love to see a remake but everything kept as is, apart from a graphics and animation update.

Yo this game right here when it came out, was on par with Halo when it came to playability. You felt a need to keep going and find out/do more. Much of it was pretty new for its time and kept you locked in even after you beat the game. OHHHHH MAN the music! Cant forget that!

This game was such a big part of my childhood! I remember the first time I played was when I lent it from a friend in a school bus. Everyone I knew who knew about this game mutually agreed that this game was basically GTA in the wild west. That's enough to have any middle school boy excited to play. And the fact that it was made by one of my favorite dev teams from back then made it more special to me. Though I do have some gripes with it. Aside from it being too short, the pacing of the dialogue felt too slow and the crosshair oddly placed, being too close to the player's head. But I guess you can just get used to them as you play this awesome game.

Amazing! Very interesting video. I've heard of this game, but never realized how good it was for its time. I think the influence on RDR series cant be underestimated here. I even got a sense of similar toned-down, dry attitude from the protagonist that we seen in Arthur Morgan. Definitely worth appreciating, pity I missed it in its day

It's crazy and nostalgic because as a 30 year old adult i have no recollection of how I got GUN, i didn't have the money to buy it and my parents surely didn't pay for it, but it ended up in my possession and I put in at the very least 100 hours into the game and still have my ps2 copy to this day, it was amazing and when red dead redemption came out I was all to willing to buy it, the memories and nostalgia is all to real, a sequel to gun I really think would be welcome buy its fans, it has almost a cult following at this point

To this day, I don’t know why I love GUN as much as I do. Played it a lot as a kid, probably shouldn’t have. When proving ground had the poster and I didn’t really know that never soft wasn’t really making games anymore I had high hopes that it would eventually be made. Wonderful video! This games super underrated. I’ll die on this hill.
