I've always felt there should be more Westerns in video games. Sure, they pop up from time to time, but it's a genre that's very much underused. Fortunately, Neversoft understands those concerns, and has been hard at work on Gun (PS2, Xbox, GCN, X360, PC), an ambitious Western action game coming out next month. I got to try it out for a while, and I baked you a cake wrote you this preview. You should eat it give it a read.

For years, developer Neversoft has basically been known as the studio that makes Tony Hawk games. Not that this is a bad reputation to have, as the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater franchise is one of the best-reviewed and most well-loved sports franchises around. But for a studio that got its start with a couple of original games back in the late 90s, you've got to figure that it's just a matter of time until a game not based on a licensed property is in the works.

The preview has been updated with newer (read: better) screenshots, so take another look.
