Hands-on: GUN Showdown

[wraggster]

Heres an excerpt

Activision stopped by with a nearly finished build of GUN Showdown for the PSP, the ported and updated version of the console title. Rebellion has been spending a lot of time trying to address a lot of the issues that arose in the original title while providing players with the elements they would want in a PSP game. To that end, the designers have included 5 new missions from Randall Johnson's original script that just didn't make it into the final console title, as well as provide multiplayer and quick play modes.



We had a chance to check out two of the multiplayer maps, West Empire and Lost City. The final title will have 8 maps, including steamboat, fort and Blackfoot levels to blast your way through. Up to 6 players can enter a map, and if you don't happen to have any friends nearby, you can populate the game with any number of bots to give you a challenge, even on normal difficulty. I do mean challenge, because these bots are designed to emulate the behavior of humans, and they actually do it very well, whether it was the bots that camped near high powered rifles, or the ones that literally zigzagged their way across a map while pulling off head shots. You'll need to be careful of these computerized sharpshooters in both the deathmatch and Golden Cross (aka Capture the Flag) modes. Poker fans will also want to keep their eyes out for the Texas Hold 'Em multiplayer mode that will be included.

I enjoyed the PS2 version. I'm very much looking foward to this.
