While it's fair to say that the original was a very disappointing Western-themed first-person shooter, Call Of Juarez: Bound in Blood is completely the opposite – managing to blend fast-paced gameplay and brilliant graphics with an authentic Western feel.
Although the single-player campaign is a little on the short side and the enemy AI is often found lacking, the team-based multiplayer mode is great fun. Downloadable content is also available, extending the lifespan of the multiplayer mode by adding four new maps.
