I actually remember playing this game on an arcade cabinet (they had an x-box inside the cabinet and a bunch of games on it) and remembering speed running the game before time ran out and I'd have to put more coins in lol.
@@JP_Crimson also he making some obvious stupid common sense mistakes that are his fault not the game. It's like using a star foam gun getting killed and blaming the game cause of your poor choices and not paying attention
Oh my god someone actually reviewed this game in 2021? This is like... My favorite/first western game. I'll admit it didn't age to well but it's still neat imo. Edit: i also never had this much trouble with the game as you did. I was like 8 when I played this (little underage I know) and I did the bridge section just fine. Then again I wasn't using a shotgun aka a spread based firing weapon near a bunch of volatile explosive barrels and running off the bridge at any given moment lol
I loved this game back in its day. Tried to replay it on the hardest difficulty and I think I got about as far as the mission where you escort the howitzer to the outskirts of empire city and it was just impossible so I gave in.
ngl, if people knew how to do an full 100% HD remake of this, and keep the game play exactly the same, just get rid of the mission complete screens Id love it
When you completed it, you got McGruders armoured horse that couldn't die as a reward. And for some reason it couldn't die from sprinting either. If you abandon it at any point, you get a message saying it's returned to the mine where you first get it. Pretty handy. Except with nothing left to do at that point, I got bored and tested how invincible the horse was. Turns out, if you use the cavalry sword, it can be meleed to death. Abandoning the corpse still respawns it at the mine, but it's still dead. So there's just an eternal dead armoured horse just laying there
It's crazy seeing this game so many years later! Remember I played it all the time as a kid, loved the stealth mission in particular. It's weird how I remembered everything looking so much better than it actually does lmao
This was me and my brothers first cowboy game on the PS2. So I have very fond memories of this game. It did not age well, but I still love all the blood and action.
Honestly loved this game, I know when compared to other games of it’s time, fu#king awful. However I still played the hell out of it, and truly enjoyed everything it had to offer. There weren’t a lot of Wild West games out so I do believe that helps it’s appeal.
I played this game for the first time relatively recently, and liked it. I think what determines whether you like it or not is if you're willing to cooperate with the game. If you spend your time trying to push and break the game and make it look as dumb as possible, then yeah, the game is going to be awkward and stupid. If you just go along with it though then it's a relatively smooth ride, save the few janky sections that naturally come with games of this era. And fun fact, Hoodoo is played by Ron Pearlman.
I ALWAYS push games. If the game just breaks, that's no fun. I like playing games that let me push them because then I know that the developers made a real game and not just "an experience" where you HAVE to do it as the devs intended.
What I've noticed a lot of people do when reviewing older games. Is that they apply a current view on the game rather than what was considered Cutting edge at the time. Ortho compared retro style indie game to an actual older game.
This was the first real "adult" game I played as a kid around 10 or 11 years old or so. My older cousin showed it to me and it changed video games for me, the good old days. McGruder was impossible to beat
When it was dark and I was small the big bold mission failed text and the sad music used to scare me even to this day it creeps me out I have no idea why But still love the game
I remember playing this game as a kid. I never fully finished it. So a few months ago I got it on pc and ran through it on the hardest difficulty. 100%'d the game and enjoyed every second of it. Its just such a nice open world experience. And I do actually like the story. Great game for the time. Didnt age the best but... its a ps2 game so...
Damn that’s a Type 3 US navy NWU, and Great Lakes cover (just graduated Navy Bootcamp so I forgot what it’s called, I’m not the smartest) love that patron! A fellow sailor!
I remember loving this game when I was like 9 on the ps2. Doubt it aged well from what I remember of it, but it has a place in my child heart from back then.
Dude I played this when I was younger and I loved it. But you guy also have to remember this was 2005 were people rarely got butthurt because of stereo types like it seems main player is.
@@GameTalesHQ In general, I realize nobody will care about my random comment so much later on lol. You just so happened to reply to one of Williaso’s moderators who is obligated to check the comment
I had soo much trouble on the bridge section as a kid. I remember finally beating it only for the power to go out and reset my progess. Amazing game at the time
*blasts two people with a double barrel shotgun while being the ones in power* "perfect now plant a revolver so that we can fool ourselves and everyone else"
@@Williaso The second one is available through the EA store, and is playable. But it's also the more nonsensical and poorly designed of the two. Though that could be a plus, depending on how you look at it.
the mercenaries games were cool tought , second one had some bad mechanic i will admit (limited in number of drop and you had to go buy them to specific places instead of just pulling out the black market menu like in 1) but overall it was a fun serie , calling airstrikes , the ability to level any building etc
I really loved this game as a kid on the xbox.... it just really really hasn't aged well. Plus as a kid it's easier to overlook all the dumb shit lol. We didn't have red dead 1 or 2 back then either. What carried it was the western theme. If it was anything else, it would have been unplayable. I never had the trouble with it you did. You guys just got hooked on "it's so bad" so you didn't allow yourself to see the good aspects of it... granted I barely remember any part of the game lol. Its like one of those old, silly wild west movies wirh outrageous shit happening in it. It's not red dead 2.
I played this when it came out , I only remember 2 things. 1st I had a good time 2nd I definitely did not fail so many times xD. Looking at this makes me wonder how did I have fun with this. I guess I was younger and simpler times.
i remember this game! i was sad when mother got rid of my xbox cause I also had the 360 and my xbox copy didn't work with the 360, anyway at one point in time I got in trouble cause I liked shooting the dead bodies heads so they would pop, also I remember the final boss fight vaguely and I think I only beat it cause I accidently figured out how to hurt the boss lol
Someday, williaso will be doing this again and it will be like "Recently I played through Gu...sorry, i dropped a bit in my mouth.. Recently a subscriber payed me to play through Gun cause this game is so bad that he rather pay someone else to suffer that instead.." Ahahah
This sounds so similar to the Halo 5: Guuuuuu... Sorry, threw up a bit in my mouth... ...To the Halo 5 video, when Halo Follower forced him to play that game.
My earliest gaming memory was getting kicked out of my friends house cause i brought the game gun and he shouted “oh my god you shot the dog” good times
This is my favorite western game because of all those movie tropes being like those old westerns, and how much red dead took inspiration from it. Maybe not the most correct game, and the developers apologized for it, it’s basically an Eastwood movie but in game form.
I've watched about a half dozen or more of your videos so far. And I typically find the content very funny and entertaining. But I have noticed is that you play all your games on PC. Personally I'm a console gamer. PlayStation 2 through 4 and then all the Nintendo's up to wii. Before you decide to play a game I have to wonder. Do you research what the best platform or best way to play that game is beforehand? Because honestly, this game was very fun on the PlayStation 2. Using a controller not a mouse and keyboard. And I can't recall one time in the several playthroughs I had with it of it crashing glitching or doing the stuff that I observed it doing for you. I've noticed that on some other videos of yours as well. With the Gears of War videos being the most obvious ones up to what I have seen. I lived with a friend of mine and his wife for about 4 months and in that time I cleared GoW 1- 3 on their Xbox 360 and in the evening we'd play horde mode. It was incredibly fun and satisfying and again I don't remember any glitching or crashing. Your playthrough of GUN does look like a dumpster fire. But I personally believe that's because you played it on PC. If you can play it on original hardware, or really good emulator and using a controller I think you would have a completely different and enjoyable experience. But that's just one opinion.
I call this game “Red Dead: Regression”
This game was legitimately better than Red Dead Revolver.
Red Dead: Refund
You want to know where the first second installment of red dead redemption got most of its ideas ….
