Gun Showdown Game

Those familiar with previous versions of the game will know that Gun Showdown is the story of Colton White, a soft-spoken young man who falls on hard times early on in the game soon after a fateful hunting trip with his mountain man of a father, voiced by Kris Kristofferson. Colton eventually gets a horse and rides off to Dodge City in search of answers and revenge. The game quickly introduces a solid cast of characters but moves from plot point to plot point quickly, making some of the story feel rushed. It'll still likely keep you interested, thanks to some high-quality cutscenes in between story missions, though these are rendered out as movies on the PSP and don't look quite as good as they do in other versions of the game. Some new missions are injected into the adventure, harmlessly padding out the story while giving you more gameplay that fits in well with the rest of the riding and shooting action you'll experience throughout.

does this return to the wild west get its revenge on the PSP?

Gun presents itself like a Wild West Grand Theft Auto, so you don't need to go straight from one story mission to the next; instead, you can explore the world and take on some side quests. However, the world of the game is small, and on the PSP it's rather devoid of life. The game's two main towns are practically deserted, and there's not a lot to see and do out in the wilderness, though there's a decent number of side quests anyway. You can seek out bounties for wanted criminals, undertake some delivery missions, keep the peace by helping local sheriffs and marshals, and even compete in some Texas hold 'em tournaments. Accomplishing these types of tasks often nets you money or stat increases for Colton's abilities, making them worth your while.

Though some sacrifices were made in scaling Gun down to the PSP, this is still by all means a good-looking game, filled with some impressive-looking animations and the unmistakable sights and sounds of a Western. The PSP's widescreen display format is well suited to the game's panoramic views, and the audio in Gun Showdown is even better than the visuals, thanks especially to the excellent voice cast for the main characters of the story.
