  4. Jonathan says:

    Pwn(y)d!

  5. Faust says:

    Ahhhh how I loved GUN…. it became way way better the instant you took off the aiming reticule.. before that I had found it a little easy.. but being able to whip around and headshot someone from horseback with a rifle is immensely satisfying.

  6. The Hammer says:

    Hahahahahaa!

    Excellent mixing of two otherwise completely separate games.

  7. Gap Gen says:

    Are we gonna see the ‘black’ episode that got ‘banned’ from PCG on here?

  8. The Shed says:

    GUN was fun, and this strip captures the horror of the Wild West so profoundly. Not to mention realistically!

  9. Jachap says:

    The scalped man is checking the damage in a mirror. That’s awesome.

  10. Simon van Alphen says:

    Missed a spot. Specifically, the camera would always turn away whenever a male character was going to die a cutscene death.
    (female character cutscene death was of course always in full, multi-angle, slo-mo, extra-gruesome view)

  11. Dorian Cornelius Jasper says:

    Simon:

    ‘Splains it. And that’s messed up.

  12. spd from Russia says:
