Definitely agree with you here; Bound in Blood was probably one of the most underrated shooters of the last generation. A solid story and many improvements over the original really took the series to a higher point. Too bad they threw all of that out the window with The Cartel a few years later.
Yeah, Bound In Blood's progression from the first Call Of Juarez was basically the same as the progression made between Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption, improvements in almost every way to every area!
Gave me one of my favorite gunfight moments in gaming. Me, crouched behind a rock in cover, outnumbered, (horse shot?), reloading my rifle, bullets zinging off of the rock, outlaws shouting, when.....a small movement... A tarantula crawls over the top of the rock in front of me! Wtf. I'm not even afraid of spiders, but that made me jump back from the rock. Awesome. Such immersion I still rarely see. I love Techland games.
i feel the fact that both the main antagonists are a bit rough around the edges may also help build realism to growing up in that era and stuff, great review this game has sat in my steam library a long time maybe i should finally play that bad boy
Bound in Blood was great, but for me, Gunslinger will remain #1 in the Call of Juarez series, despite it having almost absolutely nothing to do with Call of Juarez. It may as well have been just called Gunslinger. Regardless, it's a great game, and for me, even better than Bound in Blood.
I thought the dueling for Gunslinger was such absolute shit I rage quitted that game during the John Wesley Hardin fight. Bound in Blood is awesome though!
Man, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is such a great game and I think its an underappreciated gem. Truth be told, I actually enjoyed Bound in Blood & Gunslinger allot more, then I did with Red Dead. Anyway, I personally didn't found the Dueling awful at all and I thought it was very clear on what you needed to do. However, I played the Console version so I probably confirmed your thought. It is also a shame you didn't mention the Multiplayer, but of course that's understandable sense the community is dead. But man COJ:BIB Multiplayer was one of the few Multiplayer modes I actually loved and played allot. Anyway great review as always and I look forward to you burn that POS that is The Cartel
I love the first and last even more - the first because it's just so different and interesting and Gunslinger is just a marvel of storytelling and gameplay. Great games.
GGGman.... been following you since you started and I have been loving how you deal with the games that everyone has the same opinion on BUT you actually grave your own views upon those games. So I await your view upon the next game.... the cartel. (I leave that in lower case) Also, I'm glad your channel has grown but more importantly - your subscribers and number of views are constant - so you have LOYAL viewers! (upper case!)
A detail i really like and noticed about the conetration modes is that it will kill a certain amount of enemies, depending on how much bullets you have left in your revolver
This is the only CoJ game I've played. I enjoyed it but I don't have any friends that have ever played it. I myself bought it on a whim one day. It's good if a bit padded. I still need to get around to playing Gunslinger. That one looks awesome. Great review.
please reboot this game ubisoft. take a break from assassin creed series and give us an open world wild west adventure. wait I don't think they even listen.
>wanting a reboot from Ubisoft which will probably end up an open world shooter with lots of similar missions, QTE and dragged out gameplay time no thx
Techland reaquired the rights to Call of Juarez from Ubisoft in April so they probably plan on releasing a new installment, although definitely not before Dying Light 2 hits the shelves.
Hi, I just wanted to say I really like your reviews and thank you for all the work making this videos. I also want to ask you if you are going to make some adventure games reviews (monkey Island, grim fandango, police quest; etc.) and real time strategy games. Thanks again and greetings from Argentina *sorry about my english, it's not that good.
I don't understand your problems with duel mechanic? It is not that complicated that you need INSTRUCTIONS yet you sound like it is a damn mini game of it's own. You use mouse to control the hand until you pull out your gun, pretty intuitive and straight forward. So pull towards left-down full-speed when you hear the bell. You move left or right with A and D keys which is the very first thing EVERY SINGLE FPS GAME EVER MADE EVER ALREADY HAS. At the very first duel the game tells you to keep your enemy in sight so you can shoot faster. And you aim for the shot after pulling the gun with the god damn mouse which is another basic FPS thingy. All in all it is the simplest it can be and also still explained before the first duel for people who still cannot grasp the basic of the basics mechanic.
I wondering are you going to review Sniper: Ghost Warrior series as well? Another game that have sequel and going to trilogy. Despite the establishment keep on hammer it.
Gggmanlives In the meantime. I want to see you review Midway games first starting by Psi-Ops and Area 51. Which is by far the best underrated game of all time. That you haven't even knew it. I suppose.
If by "Area 51" you mean Blacksite: Area 51 then hahah NO - it aint underrated by any stretch of the word. 60% Meta is a very accurate score for this game (you could even argue it's less after almost 10 years). Both Ghost Warriors were low budget sniper games that also had 5-6/10 score well deserved.
+MightySavagE Who maybe guess. We will never know he will be reviewed that. By October he will review Shadow Warrior 2 first and November will be Dishonored 2 later with Killing Floor 2. Also, by the default that Area 51 will be the 2005 one. I wouldn't be surprised that he will reviewed the train wreck of 2007 as well in one just like the FEAR 2 and 3 together.
Another thing about this game is that it was released at a time where there were very few interesting and meaty FPS campaigns. CoD's influence was in full effect.
To be completely honest, i wouldn't say you are missing out, as it is basically the same mechanics as SP campaign with some UT-esque modes, and a nifty multikill system. What makes it good, is that all those elements work surprisingly well together, and overall it feels very polished. Really leaves a good impression. It is what "Fistful of frags" should've been: polished simple fun.
Well I did manage the duels pretty decent, only because I only swiped my mouse so close to the top of my pistol grip and as soon a music que says it I swipe to the pistol until the bell rings and I grabbed the revolver. Sure it's clunky, but it's satisfying to pull it off
Yeah the Dueling was way easier on console it sounds,figured it out fairly quickly and never really had issues with it. You basically just keep the right stick held down lightly and keep the hand near the holster which i imagine is a little tougher with a mouse.
Bound in Blood i think was one of the first FPS games that had a cover locking system in the game that was a true FPS cover system and not a 3rd person one when ever you entered cover.
I know this is an old video, but does anyone have the issue where the voice acting sounds incredibly compressed? EDIT:Nevermind, turned my speaker audio quality to CD. Came out as clear as day.
In terms of giving a directed fps campaign Bound in Blood is the best Western game out there. Great gunplay, great pacing and variety, levels scripted enough to give good pacing but open enough that it doesn't feel like your being squeezed through a see through tube. The only thing up there is gunslinger, which falls slightly short in my opinion because of the arcadiness and less gameplay variety. Red Dead is the king of the open world western, but Bound in Blood and Gunslinger have much better gunplay, and arguably better pacing.
I actually did like the duels. But I admit they were a bit too frequent. The idea was to keep your characters hand close to the gun, but not too close. The movements were hard to see and it felt like balancing a stick on your hand. But it worked fine for me on PC. It could be different on consoles though.
The only Call of Juarez game I've played is Gunslinger, which I loved. Might pick this one up at some point during a sale, it looks kinda fun. I have it on PS3 though because it was free a few months back.
I've only played this game and Gunslinger and I massively prefer this game. The duels are certainly annoying. I was surprised how I got some of the later ones on my first attempt lol.
The duels are good and easy to understand you need to have hand close to revolver but not too close when you hear signal you need to fast move hand to revolver
Easily the best Call of juarez game. Yeah Gunslinger is great too, but Bound in Blood is by far superior. Open levels, great shooting, incredible visuals, fun game mechanics and truly a great campaign Shame, they fucked up with Cartel, al least they fixed it with Gunslinger
After starting with Gunslinger I tried Bound in Blood and found it to be a little underwhelming. The FOV made me sick and the only way to increase it was to get a mod that changed some other things as well. Also everything was a lot less colorful compared to Gunslinger. I don't know if that's a stylistic choice, but I personally didn't like it
To be honest, I love Ray - he's a dick in completely different ways in the two games, and he's the sole reason why I can't decide which one of the two games is my favorite. I think he's well-written and there are many moments where he shows his human side. But maybe that's because I'm a dick, which makes it easier for me to identify with him.
I think I preferred him in the first game. There's just something appealing, about crusty old badass preacher. There's very few characters of that age in games too. But I think both versions of him combine to form who is easily one of my favourite protagonists in all of gaming. He shits on John Marsten, who I feel is a bit too nice at times, to be believable in his situations.
I played RDR but this still remains my favourite western game. I played the demo on xbox so many times, I could have done it with my eyes closed. I don't remember having problems with the controls there, but I didn't have problems with duels on pc either. On the other hand, I still don't know how duels work in RDR.
This second game is awsome! I beat it and then i beat it again, just for fun. And there is a pack of official missions that you can access through the menu for the single player mode. And about duels: i had no problem with them. You just have to move your mouse down left so the arm of your character stays close the gun as possible. And when you hear a bell ringing, just move it quickly toward the gun, and when red sight appears on your opponent then you can shoot with left mouse button. It's easy as it can be. And again, i beat the whole game and i had no problems with it at all, despite people complaining about it around the internet. And the game explains to you how to use it, you just need to pay attention to what it says. So stop complaining and learn how to play.
Western shooters are a nice change of pace compared to the more "standard" military/scifi/zombie/post-apocalyptic themes, a bit like fantasy shooters. Unfortunately titles of both seem quite rare :( I really hope Techland will try to do a new Call of Juarez or continuining with Hellraid. Do you plan to review Descent games and alike too? Terminal velocity, Forsaken up to things like Aquanox 2 that focus on shooting mechanics without being simulations.
Guns, action, a touch of realism, unwavering characters, and lawlessness abound...that's why Westerns are great for gaming. Bullets flying slow doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Yes, they are slower but not enough that you would be able to see it out of the naked eye. I don't know how many revolvers utilizing smokeless powdered cartridges are subsonic but I can't imagine too many of them do.
Great review on one of the few good western games. Also spawned the legend of laddergoat. And Yes: the duelling is much better on a console like the 360, as the thumbsticks are better at keeping your hand near the gun, movement, and pulling the trigger to grab your gun and shoot the guy. I got the duelling down right the very first time, it's just that it sucks that the enemy reaction times increase with each new duel, meaning you have to perfectly grab your gun at the exact split second before the bell goes off, because they have a pixel perfect accuracy and timing otherwise.
Hey gggman how did you fix your upside down opening cinematic? I know it's not a game breaking thing, but I'm a bit of a OCD freak so it grids my teeth to a powder to see it
This game is damn good, just keep in mind if you're gonna play it that the FOV on pc is terrible, its locked at 60 or 75, something like that. Still worth playing though, but it might be helpful if you played it on a TV screen or something.
You should review Descent. I mean Interplay apparently went bankrupt recently and are selling all their assets including that series so it seems like the time.
I played it on the Playstation and I though the dueling worked fairly well, thought it was pretty fun. If you wanna see some bad dueling look no further than Red Dead Revolver, ugh. Have you ever played Gun? That was a pretty good western game as well.
Definitely agree with you here; Bound in Blood was probably one of the most underrated shooters of the last generation. A solid story and many improvements over the original really took the series to a higher point. Too bad they threw all of that out the window with The Cartel a few years later.
Yeah, totally not understanding how that decision was made.
Yeah, Bound In Blood's progression from the first Call Of Juarez was basically the same as the progression made between Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption, improvements in almost every way to every area!

Don't worry GGGman, after you play The Cartel you get to play The Gunslinger, which I have heard fantastic things about.

I'm not even afraid of spiders, but that made me jump back from the rock.

Gunslinger has the best gameplay for sure, but it was lacking story and characters that the first 2 had.
Well, it has some ties to previous CoJ games, but yeah, nothing really major
It has more to do with COJ than cartel.
I thought the dueling for Gunslinger was such absolute shit I rage quitted that game during the John Wesley Hardin fight. Bound in Blood is awesome though!
@@g0atboy207 If you are still having trouble with uh. Wesley..just move a or d, or move your joint stick left and right..dodge the bulletts.
Man, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is such a great game and I think its an underappreciated gem. Truth be told, I actually enjoyed Bound in Blood & Gunslinger allot more, then I did with Red Dead.

Agreed about the multiplayer. WW Legends sounds like fun if I could play it with other people.
Those duels in my opinion are far easier with M+K

I like how you review older games moite. Keep it up
VIVA MEXICO - I remember Juarez when I was young one of the most memorable places I ever visited.
Damn it, such a good review! I played this game sooo hard, would play it again one day for sure!
bound in blood was a childhood favourite of mine its one of the only games i finished more than once
Oh dear god its cartel next.
oh sweet mother of mary.
well at least the one after that is pretty decent.
lol... yeah
So fucking true. Nice pic btw.
The Cartel is not canon at all. Its a solid trilogy that includes Call Of Juarez, Bound In Blood, and Gunslinger!
It's a shame that none of the Red Dead games ever saw a PC release... Oh well. At least we can hope for a remastered Red Dead Redemption release
I think they recently announced a RDR remaster, but I don't know if there will be a PC version or not.
Not exactly missing out on anything. Just another third-person, cover-based shooter with regen health.
@ pin09 - It has the best story ever created by Rockstar. Better than any _GTA_ game. Who gives a damn if there's regenerating health in it?
There's Gun too, which is essentially Read Dead Redemption before it was even a thing.
Red dead redemption was a coding nightmare and somehow barely came out working. They arent gonna touch that game again.
Gunslinger is amazing
I'm surprised that so many people had some struggles with duels.

That will be good looking forward to Project IGI review too :)

Love this game. So many memories
A detail i really like and noticed about the conetration modes is that it will kill a certain amount of enemies, depending on how much bullets you have left in your revolver
I didn't actually figure out how a duel actually works until the last couple of chapters in the game, lol.

it seems to me that all the western shooter games take huge inspiration from Gun (2005). It was a great game, a bit short tough...

Also Ubisoft tottaly stole the lasso mechanic for Far Cry 4 (Siniper: Ghost Warrior had it too, altough that used the same engine as well).
The pistol drawing does work better on console ( it’s where I first played it in like grade school) and than again on pc.

Hey gggman how did you fix your upside down opening cinematic? I know it's not a game breaking thing, but I'm a bit of a OCD freak so it grids my teeth to a powder to see it
I didn't have to fix anything, the game ran without a hitch.
this game would be great for some co-op
Gman have you ever played " Gun " before?
This game is damn good, just keep in mind if you're gonna play it that the FOV on pc is terrible, its locked at 60 or 75, something like that. Still worth playing though, but it might be helpful if you played it on a TV screen or something.
Just bought this today for £1.50 and from this review I think I've got this for a steal
this game totally surprised me with how good the writing was. it's all about the charachters.
do people still play the online modes?
Wouldn't consider a review of Outlaws (LucasArts, 1997)? (If you already have, apologies)
I reviewed it years ago, use the video search feature.
You should review Descent.
I mean Interplay apparently went bankrupt recently and are selling all their assets including that series so it seems like the time.
i finished this game 3 or 4 times was awesome!!
Hey Gggman can you do a review on a game called terrordrome please.
3:20 Not Magicaly, he's got a cigar
I found the duels to be annoying alright, but not *that* annoying. This is my favourite western game. I found Red Dead Redemption to be merely decent.
Someone must teach you how to properly play rdr then
there is nothing to teach about that, RDR is boring and Beyond overrated
Aye. As much as I loved RDR it certainly had some pretty glaring flaws. (The needlessly dark subplots for one, but that might just be me...)
+Sir Ernest no
Why does it look like a scaled-up java game? Nice texture pop-in though.
I played it on the Playstation and I though the dueling worked fairly well, thought it was pretty fun. If you wanna see some bad dueling look no further than Red Dead Revolver, ugh.
Have you ever played Gun? That was a pretty good western game as well.
