    Default opinions on PS2 game "GUN"? My cousin made it!

    thats crazy... fool was talking about being in the video game industry since the 80s.... (he's in his mid 20s now) so it's a trip his dream did come true... so if you played GUN I wanna get your thoughts.... is it a quality game, etc.

    it's funny coz we always think "oh i would do this or that" if i make a game, but how often do we play a game where we think "yeah, thats exactly what I would have done!".....

    I want it really bad. Asked for it for x-mas and may get it later this week. If I do get it I will be sure to tell you what I think. Looks like an awesome game to me

    What was his role? Omg, do an interview, or better yet, gimme his email so I can ask him a few questions

    Anyhow...yes, it's a very intriguing looking game, kudos to the wizards at neversoft for breaking the mold with this one.

    I never played the game but I'm curious how he was he employed in the game industry in the mid 80's yet only be in his mid 20s now? 1989 was 17 years ago already, was he 10 when he was hired?

    No he was just talking about it. Like a kid dreaming of growing up to be a fire fighter.

    While I haven't played the game, I've seen many commercials for it on TV (I'd say, more than any other PS2 game recently). I remember thinking that it looked pretty freaky. Either way, with them running this many ads for it, they must think it has some sort of potential.

    One of my flatmates has this game and plays it a hell of a lot. I've never actually played it but have watched him often. It seems a very fun game and I like the theme of it.

    I enjoyed this game a lot, but it seemed to move at too fast a pace, and ended way quicker than I imagined :/

    I really enjoyed this game, if anyone here has played red dead revolver I highly recommend giving this game a try.

    I really liked GUN, IMO it was really short. I was through the entire thing including all the side missions in about 12 hours. I was hoping for something on the scale of GTA San Andreas. But Really good all the same.

    Well, Steven never posted a follow-up to my question, but it looks like the guy was on the team that ported the game to the PS2...anything further than that and I'd just be guessing blindly...

    I've thought of getting it because I'm always saying that we need more western video games. I have the three current consoles (not counting the XBox 360, of course) and would probably get the XBox version if I got one unless someone informs me either the PS2 or GC version is better...

    I was hooked on the gameplay and storyline, which were excellent. The length was way too short, there should've been a lot more sidequests, random events, and story missions. Even though the world was quite large, there wasn't really much to do when exploring besides fighting random bandits. The unlockables were kind of pointless since there wasn't really anything exciting to use them on. Still, I'd definitely pick up a sequel if one was created.

    I have the Gamecube version and completed it in two days. It was enjoyable but like other's have said, way too short.

    I found it at Best Buy for $29.99 and had that $10 off coupon thing that came in those XBOX 360 demo DVD's they were giving away so ended up with GUN for $19.99.

    After purchasing it, I looked around a bit at other retailers and it was still $49.99 everywhere. Got a nice deal!

    FPSes on consoles aren't my bag, so I doubt I'll ever play it.

    But if he came up with the title, I'd kindly ask him to rethink his career choice.

    Um you know what FPS stands for right? and if so why are you refering to GUN as one?

    GUN uses FPS style controls and the quick draw mode is in FPS so he does know what he is talking about.
