Well hopefully it will be anyway.

Don't know if any of you have heard of it, I certainly hadn't till about 5 minutes ago but it's gonna be superb...hopefully.

Tis called 'Dead Man's Hand' rubbish name I know, but it's a western first person shooter for fook sake. I've wanted another one of these ever since I got addicted to an old game by Lucas Arts called 'Outlaws' and this looks brilliant. You get to do all these gun slinging moves, there's even the ability to shoot people's hats off their head Clint Eastwood stylee.

Best thing off all though is it's gonna have 16 player Xbox live support. Loads of funky game modes as well, other than the normal DM and Team Deathmatch such as Posse mode, which has every player on the same side trying to hold of endless waves of AI enemies from invading your camp type.

Should be out by the end of the year hopefully, I can't wait.

there should be more western games. The Duke nukem Zero Hour Wild West levels were good and the timespliters level was good. A whole game would be a lot better, hopefully it has good pre-created taunts for online.

I was thinking of when the guy that greets you dies. He dies with his tounge lolling and makes the stupidist noises.

You just have to see it to realise how terrible it was. No amount of description prepares you for the specticle it truely is.

With the old funeral bloke who made some sarcy comment about yah and when you died he put the blanket over you... played it so many times...

"Hey, hey you can help. Mad dog McCre's gang has taken over the town, the mayor and his daughter have been taken hostage up at mad dog's hideout and you'll have to get him out to help with the gang... can you help? Good... oh and one more important thing..."

"Hey no partner don't tell him a thing"

"Ow" or "phew, that's some mighty fine shooting..." etc...

You get the message.

It's a Western 1st person shooter with gun slinging, hat shooting, card playing, horse riding...tumble weed rolling....something else to do with westerns....cowboys.

It's not just another 1st person shooter you tart.

Don't make me have to post the IGN preview, it sounds like the mutts nuts.

I've been wanting a Western 1st person shooter for absoloutly aaaaaages.
