Gun was released on the PC too. I ought to buy it at some point .

Runs too choppy on my Celeron 2400. Maybe I could've scaled down the details more, but I didn't want to. It'll have to wait.

Don't know if they have increased the cache for 2Ghz+ Celerons, but I've seen benchmarks in which a 2Ghz Celeron overclocked to 2,6Ghz didn't outperform a 1900+XP running at its normal clock speed. That makes me hope it could run a bit better.. I loved my old Celeron 400A, by the way. Best bang for the buck I got since that 650Mhz Duron. I've read that people played the game with a 2000+XP CPU and only 512 megs of RAM, and apparently the framerate only really dropped in the city hubs here and there. They complained about the loading times, though. I really need that game. My really low memory bandwith could be a significant bottleneck though. If only there was a demo!

Definatley check out "Gun" and "Deus Ex." Really enjoyable games! After all this talk of "Mafia", I think I might check the game out. I have always passed by it and never took note of it.

I didn't like Gun.
I hoped that it would been a great western action adventure, but in the end it felt like a half-assed gta clone.
You just rode with the horse all around the map continuously doing mission after mission after mission...

I came to think of Reservoir Dogs, the game. Not exact as mafia, but kinda same style, I loved Mafia, and enjoying Reservoir Dogs, don´t have much time to play though, so I´m progressing kinda slowly...

It's good to see that my love for Mafia is universal.

I have 'borrowed' GTA Vice City for work, and it's kind of entertaining (okay, I've been playing it a lot) but the gameplay and the characters/story don't come even close at all to drawing me in like Mafia did.

I might try Gun next week, and probably Deus Ex around then as well. Haven't heard of Reservoir Dogs.

And even though nobody has mentioned it, I want to say that Gangs of London really sucks.

I thought Gun was an enjoyable game but yeah, when I first heard about it a while back I thought it would be something of an epic masterpiece. When I played it seemed not as ambitious as they said it was going to be. Oh well, got to give props for the excellent voice acting and cinematics.
I've never played a GTA game, am I missing anything? Or once you've played one of these games, you've played them all?

If you didn't like Gun why did you recommend it in the first place?

[TM3]

Because it's still an enjoyable game despite a few flaws. It has a fun arcade-style to it. It's probably nothing compared to Fable.
