Summary: No words can correctly describe Outlaws. Here goes....
Review: *****WARNING: OUTLAWS IS ADDICTIVE!***** (thanks, Gojo)

One of the Best in the gaming Industry. Even After 2 years of being Printed!

The Best ''First-Person shooter''out there. If you have a Joystick, Gamepad, or even the old Mouse and Keyboard, whatever, this game works.

You are Marshal James Anderson former Lawman current retired and hard working Farmer. Your wife is killed and only child kidnapped. Nothing to loose your heart seeks revenge. With classic cut-scenes that tell the story, and many hours of assuring gameplay, Outlaws can't be beat. With three Different difficulty settings available: The Good, Bad, and The Ugly. These three modes are challenging.

Good: starting off with plenty of health and ammo lyin' around, who couldn't win?

Bad: Less Health and ammo to stumble across, and badguys are more aggressive and take more shots to kill.

The UGLY: the ugly got it's name. Few ammo and Health to get. Better use you're ammo sparingly and shoot quick these Badguys aim ta kill!

With three modes like Spaghetti Western(The game), Bounty hunter(earlier life of Marshal James Anderson), and Multiplayer Shoot-outs(online). Historical Missions(Bounty Hunter): The earlier life of the Marshal, with many challenging levels to complete. Multiplayer Capture the Flag, Team Play, and Kill the Fool with the Chicken, are some of the various settings online.

Don't mean ta babble on like this but I hope this Helped!

Buy this game. I personally guarantee that it won't be a letdown. Thanks fer listenin.

*Tune in next time.......*

Summary: A Diamond in the Rough
Review: Ever since getting into gaming, I have noticed the growing trend of the 1st person shooter genre, the trend set by those wonderfull guys at ID software. Ever since Doom, each new game seems to be related to it somehow, all of them set in space or in the future, having you battle it out with hell spawn, or outlandish aliens. With weapons consisting of nothing more then hyper blasters and rocket launchers. I got sick of this overdone theme fast and longed for a 1st person shooter with a story, one that captured me and consisted of more then just blowing up crap.

Then came Outlaws, a diamond in the rough, a hidden gem amongst the piles of other games that seemed to have everyones attention. Outlaws plays out like a classic spaghetti western. It consists of a wonderfull story that tells itself through handdrawn cutscenes and ingame action. You are a US Marshal, who has retired, but while away in town, outlaws set on vengence, kill your wife and kidnap your daughter, making your retirement shortlived.

This game was originaly released in late 1996 and met with mixed reviews, most were to caught up in the phenomena known as Quake to pay it any mind but for those that did not, boy did they miss out. The graphics are superb for it's time, and the music is out of this world. The weapons are simple, real world weapons from the times of Jesse James and Billy the Kid. You can't shoot forever and you actually have to reload. This game takes skill and stealth. I have played through the single play mode countless times enjoying it more and more each time.

After you are done with single player make sure to take advantage of the wonderfull multi-player modes. Outlaws plays well online with a 28.8 modem and is supported on Microsoft's, zone.com. It also is a great game for any lan party or the network at work. It is easy to start up and easy to play. There are many different modes to try, deathmatch, team deathmatch, capture the flag, and an original game called kill the fool with the chicken. It also developed a pretty big on-line community with many new custom maps always being created leading to endless replayability. Outlaws also has customizable taunt files you can bind to the f-keys. This realy adds to the game enabling you to yell out insults to your oponents. You can even record or import your own voice or clips from movies or what ever you can think of.

All and all this game is a must have for any gamer who even hints at liking western movies. You can't beat the price for what you get. Don't pass this up, truly one of the greatest PC games ever made.

Summary: Excellent game
Review: Good graphics, good plot, decent puzzles. I pull it out every few months and go through the whole thing again. It never gets boring. The extra missions that can be downloaded from Lucasarts are really good, too.

Summary: What shooters should be
Review: I hate shooters, and I love this game. I loved it from the minute I downloaded the demo. I was so tired of shooters after doom 2, and I get positively nauseated listening to 14 year olds talking about how Quake 5, or Blood 43 are the greatest games. If you love spagetti westerns, and want a real challenge in a first person shooter, give this game a try. You'll be hooked the first time you step into a room, fire your six guns and hear "click,click,click." yes, you actually have to RELOAD. You also have to duck and run for cover or risk getting your buns shot off by good ol boys with mere pistols. The BFG is the gatling gun and you won't be running around with it anywhere. It doesn't even come into the game until the very end. If only all shooters would take a lesson from lucasarts. They've reinvented the genre...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally, a sim for the upper age group.
Review: LucasArts has created a game with speed, and action; coupled with a storyline that is finally centered towards the upper age group. Now over two years old, this sim continues to capture a new audience with its old western depictions. Online play is by far the most habit forming. Highly, HIGHLY, recommended for those who enjoy a straightfoward oldfashioned western shootout but without the demonic overtones of the standards in the industry. Awaiting a sequel LucasArts!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Outlaws
Review: Outlaws is a first person shooter set in the wild west. The story line is you play the hero and have to rescue your daughter from the villan. Built on a dated engine with wonky physics, Dated graphics and a 2.5D design. Very dull gameplay with no atmosphere and a box of rocks AI. Gameplay is nothing but shoot the baddies, Find key, Open door, Shoot more baddies, Find another Key ect ect. Outlaws is very dissapointing.

Rating: 5 stars
