    Red Dead Revolver could very well be THE game to keep the Old West genre from riding off into the sunset once and for all.

Despite this there are enough interesting ideas in this third-person shooter to ensure it never becomes a chore to play and, if nothing else, it provided the template for the fantastic follow up Red Dead Redemption.… Expand

    This game did not live up to my expectations. The graphict were not that great. It could have been alot better. If your looking for a good game along the same lines try Dead Man's Hand. I would not recommend Red Dead Revolver.… Expand
