Summary: 5 Stars

Description of Outlaws

Outlaws has a lot to offer fans of single-player action, but the graphics are strictly love 'em or leave 'em. The cutscenes used to advance the plot are rendered in gritty comic-book fashion, and that design theme extends to the actual gameplay. Everything from the enemies you fight to the guns you carry have the look of a graphic novel, and that might not appeal to gamers used to being thrust into game worlds that display everything in full 3-D. Here the environments are 3-D, but all the characters and objects are reminiscent of cardboard cutouts.

We appreciated this design decision, as it drew us further into the game's plot and made transitions from the movies to the interactive portions more seamless. Even now, several years after its release, Outlaws still inspires cries of "yeehaw!" every time we load it up. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

• The plot, voice work, and especially the music exude classic Western movie style
• A strong graphic design with even stronger gameplay
• Cutscenes are done well
• Somewhat realistic elements like having to manually reload your guns make for tense action

• It's an older game and won't impress the majority of the 3-D action crowd
