Quake3 in the wild west! A must-see for every fan of the classical dusty duel and saloon shootings!

Considered on the technical way it is not the very best, but anyway its great fun!

12:00 o’clock afternoon. The main street is deserted. One desiccated bush is flying across.

There are some scared habitants looking right to the happening from the saloon. One desolate gunslinger is coming out of a cloud of dust and is looking at his combatant without any move. For some minutes both are standing motionless compared to each other. Abruptly, there is a shoot. Both combatants are standing with drawn pistole. Who’s gonna fall down ?

Anyone who likes those scenes, anyone who is a fan of the wild west genre, will love this game!

Smokin’ Guns is using the similar Quake3 engine. From there it is graphically more restrained.

But thats no problem, the atmosphere is instead much more terrific! The single-player mode offers all of the game modes with bots for training. Like we know from other games, those bots are not blessed with advanced intelligence.

Anyway, thats boring as well. There a lot of dun in the multiplayer mode, weather in the internet or in lan. In the classical deathmatch in Gulch Creek you can find bar fights in the saloon, only one single Cowboy has barricaded himself with his gun on the balcony. Classical weapons, cool maps not only for the wild west fans! In other modes you can rob or defend a bank and you can be the last one who survived the shooting! The most fun comes from the duel mode. Who is drawing faster ? Who aimes better? For gratification for won combats you can access a buying menu at any time you want.

There you can buy lots of classical weapons to the point of the Gatling Gun!

All in all it is technical not the best, but for those who can do without shade and antialiasing will have a lot of fun! Especially those who are drawing faster than their own shadow 🙂
