New pics, details from Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood


From the Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood release we just received:

  • "Never Before Seen Western Experience – Experience the iconic settings full of outlaws – the West before it was tamed. The McCall brothers face a renegade Apache Chief, a greedy Mexican bandit, a vindictive Colonel, and others, all driven by greed with moral disregard. Enjoy a wide variety of situations, using horses, canoes and wagons to explore the vast natural landscapes of the fabled Wild West and its legendary period."

Dear Game Publishers: When you list features to entice people to buy your game, and you include characters "driven by greed with moral disregard" and then, deciding that's not quite enough, list that it also has canoes, your features list has probably just gone one paragraph too long.

The release did have its purposes, though, as it taught us that the game was due in the "Summer of 2009" rather than just "later this year." Check out the full list of features (including canoes) right after the break.

  • Become a Gunslinger – Harness a variety of weapons from various revolvers to heavy-caliber cannons and machine guns. Every accurate shot increases concentration, which allows players to unleash deadly shooting modes when outnumbered and even deadlier ones when the brothers work together.

  • Dual Collaborative Gameplay – Players choose to embody Ray or Thomas, each with a distinctive gameplay style (close or long range), specific abilities (lasso, dynamite, etc.) and arsenal of deadly weapons (dual guns, long-range carbine, etc.). Take advantage of each of their strengths and join in the fiercest fights imaginable.
