Gun Hands-On Preview

Neversoft’s upcoming Activision-published Gun has shown quite a bit of promise since the Southern California-based developer took the wraps off the third-person Western-themed action game earlier this year. The game blends elements and technology from Neversoft’s own Tony Hawk franchise, as well as a smattering of GTA-inspired bits. We’ve been anxious to see just how this Western romp–which promises much shooting, female interaction, and mystery-solving–will handle, ever since we got our first look at it this past June. Our subsequent looks have done little to diminish that positive impression, so we were naturally anxious to take the reins in the game and get some hands-on time. We were finally able to do that recently when we tried out work-in-progress versions of the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 games, which featured a sampling of levels taken from the start of the adventure.
