Bottom line: this game is fun! The graphics and sound are awesome, and the western atmosphere is as authentic as possible! Everything you would expect from a western is in here: horses, indians, bandits etc On the flip side, its a bit too easy at times, and the end battle isn't as good as I felt it could be..Anyway, I played this wearing a cowboy hat...great!

Breath of fresh air from futurisitc FPS. Great voice acting, great art design and the gunslinging is really tight. not Dead Space/Uncharted graphics but it really is a hoot.

The game is fun, and brings a lot of the good things from Call of Duty.. If they had a better "gun duel" system, this game would be great. The controls and timing for gun dueling has a high learning curve, which will lead to frustration (especially when your character doesn't even draw at all when you do what you're supposed to). This isn't the best shooter I've ever played, and it isn't the worst. It'll be better after they patch some of the bugs out.… Expand

This is a great game for anyone who enjoys playing FPS. The Civil War era, western cowboy theme, is a breath of fresh air. There are excellent gun fights, high-noon showdowns, and a story line that draws the player in. Techland did an outstanding job of creating a realistic atmosphere of both the Civil War and Western themes. This in combination with the sound play make this game immersive to say the least. Bad to the bone (9.3).… Expand

At first I felt a bit reluctant towards this game, but when I finally decided on giving it a shot, it extremely surprised me. What I got was a great western experience with all the scenes that a famous western movie would feature. The game's storyline is very well-written, and the dialogues are remarkably well-acted, and after seeing the cutscenes, I thought I'm not even playing but watching. The gameplay itself is keeping up the excitement with ingame plot development and action-packed scenes, like chases, while not being frustratingly hard, and the showdowns are just adding a great deal to experience. The game is easily controllable, and has nice looks, not just because of the great graphics, but the environment is simply well-done. Despite not being an all-time classic, this game is surely worth a play or two.… Expand

There hasn't been many western games and now there came one.So if you are a fan of western games then this game is a must buy! this game's singleplayer is just like call of duty's and the horse riding is extremely bad those are the bad things but the good things are in the singleplayer that it holds in all the western things and it has a great duel system. the multiplayer is ok it's laggy but you get money for killing and with that you get new classes thats why i gave it an 8.… Expand

Just finished The game. Took me 5 hours and 30 minutes to finish it on easy mode. Personally, easy mode was too easy. There was no challenge. So if you're gonna play it, start with medium mode. The game got ok graphic and the best part, I play the game with highest settings and I've never got any fps lag.

I hate shooters , but i must say this one is best shooter ever made.Call of Juarez owns Half Life , CS and BioShock big time.

Let's put it straight - this game deserves solid 8, but I gave it 9 for its setting, since there are not that many western games around, and each new one is a refreshing experience after shooting thousands of WW2 opponents or zombies. Where to start? Graphics are quite good, level design pretty successful (pay attention on the different towns, their structure and the materials they are made of) and not monotone (towns and wilderness mixed-up), sounds like those from the old movies by Sergio Leone... The story will keep you interested in getting further all way long and the narration style fits well the overall timeline (setting). The most important fact is that the gameplay is really something to enjoy. Maybe a few bothering moments and SPOILER - unrealistically tough enemies with miniguns (?) near the end of the game - SPOILER END are the main reason I'm giving this game 8... Pardon me, 9. Recommended, especially if you find it in a bargain bin somewhere.… Expand

I was in complete shock over how much fun this game was. The story is an excellent western tale, the writing and voice acting are great. The mechanics are almost flawless, I haven't had this much fun with a FPS since HL2. This game deserves huge props for the best implementation of cover mechanics. It is perfectly seamless, effortless, and most important effective. This is an EXCELLENT game, and trust me... I am not easily impressed.… Expand

What an absolute surprise. This game is absolutely fantastic. Everything from the dialogue, to the voice acting, to the awesome gun-slinging gameplay is very polished. I have played both the PC and PS3 versions, and it is much better on the PC. Would recommend to all.

Great classic western story combined with an authentic, great looking, time-accurate setting all together with very polished gunplay makes for one of the most enjoyable experiences of 2009. And to add to all its glory is pitch-perfect voice acting, great sound, (the guns really make a satisfying boom) and incredible attention to enviornmental detail. Although, the game is not perfect. The single player is over all too quickly and, to my surprise, is not as epic as it tries to be, regardless of what other critics said. It just did not have the frantic pacing of COD4 or the feeling of "overwhelming odds" Thats pretty much it for the cons and i must say, multiplayer was surprisingly interesting and fun. What I liked most about multiplayer was the maps. They are quite convoluted, and much to my surprise, almost every building you see is fully interactive and enter-able, so instead of feeling scripted and linear "you must go through here to reach the enemy base", COD4 type maps, they were surprisingly non-linear and added to the multiplayer experience. Overall, though it is short, its a must buy (and worth the $50 price tag) due to the relatively high replay value (there is unlockable content) and interesting multiplayer which serves as a great diversion.… Expand

I want to talk a bit about multiplayer. I haven’t even touched the single player campaign yet, so consider this a short multiplayer review. Death match fans rejoice! DM in this game has the great level design and fun weapons to make DM a mode to enjoy for months. But there are 2 things about multiplayer that elevates this game above many others…Posse and Bounty!! Posse teams you up with hunters while the hunted make a run for it, just like in the old West! In other modes, bounties are placed on the heads of people dependant on how many people you kill. You are worth more if you’ve been on a streak…the more people you kill the bigger the bounty on your head. The player to take you out collects the bounty! Very inventive and clever! Multiplayer in this is a blast. If multiplayer is your thing, come get some!… Expand

I really enjoyed Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, but wish the experience was a bit longer. I played my copy of this game on the PC and the graphics were superb. The game-play was standard FPS style with the added element of concentration mode (when in concentration mode you are able to pause, target several enemies, and then shoot the multiple targets all at once). The game was fun and a solid weekends worth of entertainment.… Expand

If you are looking for an authentic western experience then look no further this game absolutely nails it,the west conjures up images of a landscape that is wild,free and goes on forever and this game does a fantastic job of presenting that image of the west,It has a great story that you will get emotionally invested in. Fantastic game

I'm from Poland and i'm produ that game like this are made by my country. It's not perfect and even close to perfect, but fresh and good enough to give few hours of wild western shootouts. Mulitplayer modes are good too.

System Specs: GFX: HD6970 CPU: i52500 Audio: X-fi Titanium Game : Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood................................. Graphics: Great, feels smooth................................ Storyline: Good, has a solid storyline with a nice twist that will keep you guessing................................. Game-play: Good, the cover system was unique................................. Difficulty: Normal, some parts took a bit of strategy................................. Sound: Good, guns sound great................................. If you're into western shooters this would be the one to pick up. The storyline is decent too and would be worthy of a movie.… Expand

This game isn't the best game I've ever played but it is one that i loved to played. I felt that the story was okay for what they were trying to do but it didn't feel western to me. I loved the multiplayer on this game. I loved that each class was counter able and that there were enough classes to cover every play style from guns-blazing to sniper.

Just finished the game and....It's just as boring as the first Call of Juarez, if not more. And most annoying is the narrator, a whiny little kid with an incredibly irritating and boring voice. If this game was more of an open experience like GUN it would probably be allright, but right now it's very scripted, linear and repetitive. And a game featuring horses should atleast have some decent riding mechanics, but riding in this game is a complete horror. I'm sorry but GUN owns this game in every aspect.… Expand

Uses the same moronic stuck-on-rails system as the equally moronic Call of Duty series. But here it's even more tediously restrictive. Basically, you walk forward down the (trench/path/tunnel/street). You shoot the bad guys that pop up. You die. Repeat, with exact same bad guys popping up. Weapons: uninteresting. Missions: over-familiar. Western setting: wasted. This game may please CoD droids, but anyone with half a brain should give it a miss.… Expand

2 good things in this game are story and graphics. levels are just boring and sooo linear. There are like 10 weapons in the game and few upgrades so that ain't too convincing. And straight ahead shooting ain't nothing new so this game really doesn't bring anything new even the sideguests there are like umm 6 of them and they are all just the same. I really think that GUN on ps2 made all the things so much better than this piece of crap.… Expand

I really wanted to like this game, BUT it made itself very unlikeable. First off, as mentioned earlier, the narrator is HORRIBLE. ---SPOILER (kind of?)--- I was glad when he died in the end. The graphics are terrible, like it was made 5 years ago. Storyline - boring. Voice acting - boring. Game play - boring. Everything about this game was boring. If you're looking for a good western FPS, check out GUN. It's a few years old but blows this thing out of the water in every aspect (including graphics) - the only downside to that game was not multiplayer. CoJ:BB does have multi, but I'm not even slightly interested in trying it out. Waste of money, wait for the bargain bin if you just have to play this game.… Expand

I've played worse, but this is one unimpressive western run and gun shoot 'em up. This game would be ideal for 2 player coop, but they failed to provide that element. The story is actually pretty decent, but the whiny little kid brother and his rants just make me want to throw my mouse through my TV. It totally distracts from the cowboy fugitive tough guy personalities the game is trying to promote.… Expand

An extremely linear shooter. Old western or cowboy fans might appreciate the beauty of the towns and the surrounding canyons, as also the classic long-rifles and various revolvers. For others, there's little reason to play this game. Linearity aside, this game has a nice story about brothers and family, and also got quite a touchy ending. The horse-riding missions are quite fun too, at least a little different than in Assassin's Creed. As for the brothers, each have their own speciality, ranging from movement abilities, combat tactics to weapon selections. This helps to add a little spice of variety into the gameplay, but it's done little to increase the value of replayability of the single-player levels.… Expand

The good - The action is fun, using old western guns is nice for a change from the MW clones - There is a story - I would have been bored after more than 6 hours so I'm glad it wasn't any longer The bad - The voice acting annoyed me - It gets very repetitive - Too many invasive cut scenes slow the game down heaps. If you have 6 hours spare, and it's cheap, give it a go.

"Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood" is simply a crappy game to start off with. First of all, this game doesn't feel western; it's gun animation or the shooting feel is too lethargic and clumsy for me. Second, the story is plain **** Watch "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" 3 times and broaden the story, and boom! You have this. Lastly, the AI. The game's Artificial Intelligence is one of the most heavily scripted thing I've seen in my life. Too easy, too simple. Don't buy this.… Expand

A good attempt at a western shooter, but it has nothing fresh or innovative, also the banter between the brothers constantly gets a little annoying, and you can't switch it off. Needs more guns and a much less linear path through each mission. Also if you are having issues with this game loading, be sure to update your sound card drivers, or it repeatedly crashes on the intro to the single player game. There were some posts on the steam forums about the other several errors the game seems to have, but not this one so I hope this helps.… Expand

In a gaming world where the western genre is not exactly a prolific, this game cures the itch. As a FPS it's not a bad game and the story area is not bad at all. I enjoyed it since the art direction is great and the playability is great, as a single player game it gives you a reason to play it more than once and the story will make you stay. So i would define it as a fun fps game that gives you a great western adventure and makes you enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely give it a try. Standing at April 2012 for a very reasonable $9.99 (non-deal price) in steam, i would even call it a must.… Expand

Awesome graphics on the pc. Love the open world sections, they blew me away, which is too bad because they could have expanded on that concept. The story was fun and the level design great. The gunplay is also great. Awesome awesome game.

Bound In Blood is an underrated game, insane shootouts, good story, nice graphics (for its date). I played right through in a day so it is a bit short, but quality not quantity in my opinion. Best western shooter I've played. 8/10.
