This sequel to Red Dead Revolver sounds like it could have a lot of the qualities that I liked about Gun. I like westerns that don't just focus on shooting people:
"Since the original, Red Dead Revolver, the scene has shifted to the year 1910 and new protagonist John Marston has left his life as a bandit behind and settled down. Until “The Bureau,” the predecessor to the FBI, blackmails him for his help tracking down his old compatriots."
Once you do kill a varmint or two:
"... bodies will persist for some time and attract vultures, just part of the game’s ecosystem, which includes animals like dogs, snakes, deer and antelope. In particular, animals like the deer and the antelope, while there is no word if they get to play, can be hunted, tapped and skinned for their valuable pelts."
"Now on horseback, riding through the scrublands, it was reported that there will be three large open world areas, the frontier, Colorado, and Mexico, each with their own unique caricature and combined will be “much bigger” than GTA4’s Liberty City. While the horse is the primary conveyance, one that will allow for random encounters, there will be trains, stagecoaches and steamships for faster travel. The side mission will help you define your character on a good/evil scale."
I liked Gun because I could play a mission, or I could saunter through the beautiful scenery between one town and the next before going into a saloon and playing cards, or deliver parcels for the pony express. I like a more complex game that isn't so goal oriented as the stuck-on-train-tracks type games where you have to go from point A to point B and just kill everything that moves in between and this seems to be addressing that a bit more.
GTA has spoiled me rotten. : )
