Pros: good graphics engine
Cons: too many
Summary: Gunman first started out as a mod made by fans of Half Life. And guess what happened? a company called Rewolf thought it was so good that they slipped the mod makers a big check, went on to create more levels and released it as a full ... read more

Pros: Half-Life engine!
Cons: Half-Life?
Summary: If you are a regular Half-Life fanatic like myself, you should love any version which is brought out resembling this game. I like every single mod (almost) and this is basically the biggest mod you could ever find for half-life.
It runs ... read more

Pros: Not to hard or easy; beautiful, albeit maybe dated graphics; great story sequences; very fun
Cons: Hard to find; not long enough
Summary: Oh man - I cannot believe this game got so many negative reviews!!! I finally found it and I love it. I am a Half Life (and its expansions) fan and this game is right up there with it - not as long but a fun trip nonetheless. Expect HLife caliber ... read more

Pros: Half-Life engine, drivable vehicles, customizable weapons
Cons: Designed to be a free download but now costs $40, no storyline, SHORT
Summary: It is pretty hard to screw up the Half-Life engine. The graphics, the sound, the controls...everything about Half-Life seems classic. But Gunman Chronicles is definitely not going down in the history books. Is it that bad? Did they do the unthinkable and ... read more

Pros: Graphics, Cool Intro
Cons: Easy puzzles, bad animation, and way, way too short
Summary: I remember the day I first played Half-Life. It was Christmas Eve 1999 and I bought the game earlier that week for my brothers... yeah. I think to this day my brothers have played it a total of 3 times, but this is irrelevant. I loved the game, blowing ... read more

Pros: It has a some of what made Half-Life fun.
Cons: Too short, not worth $40. Some parts feel like Half-Life that looks worse.
Summary: Gunman Chronicles was originally a mod for the game Half-Life that I had been really looking forward to. Promises of drivable vehicles, multiple planets, and customizable weapons really got me excited about it. I was a little disappointed when they ... read more

Pros: Hard to find
Cons: Myriad of bugs; thoroughly unenjoyable experience; unresponsive controls; cheap plot; terrible voice acting; dated engine.
Summary: Seen from the outside, to work as a game reviewer has to be the best kind of job available out there. You play games all day (which by the way, are shipped to you for free), write a review between 500-1000 words after you are done with them, and you even ... read more

Pros: Someone forgot to tell the programmers to put some "pros" in.
Cons: The publishers conning you out of 40 bucks.
Summary: Not to mention if you give the bum $40, you'll be contributing to someone who's trying to make an HONEST living, unlike the makers of Gunman Chronicles who are trying to sell this "Half-Life Skin" for $40 plus tax and shipping.
This ... read more

Pros: Some funny (and cheesy) moments of dialogue.
Cons: Can get locked in place in some levels, terrible voice acting, very short game (under 8 hours).
Summary: Gunman Chronicles by Rewolf Software has the strangest mix of artistic elements I've seen this year and is a title that I can best describe as just another game you probably don't want to spend your hard-earned money on.
You play the role of ... read more

Pros: Easy game-play, nice look and feel.
Cons: Yet another FPS.
Summary: So here comes Gunman. For me, yet another FPS. One of (too) many. A friend of mine told me to try it, even though he knows what I think about games where the speed of your fingers is more important than the speed of your brain.
I have to ... read more

Pros: Ok if you really want to play Half-Life again
Cons: Dull, nothing new
Summary: Well for all you Half-Life fans out there you will recognize the graphics and game play of Gunman. The problem is that it is too recognizable, its one thing to develop add-ons for a game like Half-Life at least then people know what they are getting, ... read more

Pros: weapon mods are kewl
Cons: graphics; game play
Summary: Every once in a while, I receive a game that makes me write an epitome of all game reviews. It makes me want to spend the extra hours trying to figure out the intricate details displayed by the profound graphics engine, and the philosophical ideologies ... read more

Pros: Great story and Gameplay. Great price.
Cons: Dated Graphics.
Summary: At first it could be easy to overlook this product, as it is a total-conversion of the classic Half Life that was created by a group of new programers the world over. Many of the team had not even met one another as they worked on the project. That ... read more
