A fistful of vengeance.

<span class="bold">GUN&trade;</span>, a gun-trotting action/adventure in the wild West, is available now DRM-free on GOG.com.

There is something about the Old West that keeps fascinating us. The dusty towns, the gold rush, the dames of questionable moral fiber, the bullet-ridden saloons, the twitchy duels, the tobacco-chewing villains - they blur the line between history and fantasy in a particularly alluring fashion.
GUN is about breathing in all these things as Colton White and also engaging in bounty-collection missions, poker matches, buffalo hunts, train robberies, horseback shootouts, and just about everything that an open-world adventure has to offer to a daring gunslinger such as yourself. Just remember that sometimes the stealthy, more cunning approach is preferable to direct violence, even against the lowlifes that have wronged you.

Enter the vast, opportunistic land of the Wild West and dish out justice with your <span class="bold">GUN&trade;</span> in hand, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Hey ACTIVISION, are you writing all of this down? How many people on this thread are complaining about the price? ALL OF THEM? You bet your ass all of them.

Impaler26: And here's another release that's regional locked and not available for germans. Ain't it great... :(

BreOl72: Oh come on...as if you would've bought it. ;p
I would have bought it on sale. :P

Yeah - that's what you say now. ;D

seppelfred: I really hate GodOldGeolock at the moment. This is one of the games I most anticipated here on GOG, and now I can't buy it.
I'm not a minor, I'm allowed to buy it in germany, but GOG doesn't let me. Thank you for nothing!
Would GOG be allowed to sell the game to you without any expensive and/or cumbersome age verification procedures? If not then this is an inevitable result of German law. It is unfair(not saying you are doing so) to expect/demand that GOG implement procedures that might $Y upfront + $X per transaction or something like that in order to be able to sell these games to 18+ years old residents fo Germany.

Harzzach: There is a difference between "forbidden" and "not available". GUN was made not available for ALL german customers, because GOG has no age verification system in place. GUN-US is not forbidden in Germany. You can buy, if you are older than 18 years.

IAmSinistar: I'm not really interested in getting all pedantic about it. I was just trying to make a quick and slightly humorous reply to the original poster. Split hairs if you want, but either way German people can't buy the game on GOG.
Alright, I'll stop now :)

I too. :)

General question to folks here, and sorry if I missed it, but what are the differences in the censored version?

Iirc blood and splatter effects, the scalping and some other stuff i forgot....
Interesting game, but I cannot afford it!

I think that a price tag of $20 for such old games (not only GUN), which many interested users already own on a physical media is too high anyway.
At least this region locked release explains the new found interest in geo-blocks.

Its pressure from publishers. Implement the same region blocks as Steam or you wont get our games.


DRM will be next. So everyone that things its just a German problem. Wait and see.
FINALLY! Have been meaning to get this one since forever, even more since I've learned that the protagonist is actually voiced by Tom Jane. The price is ridiculous, though.

Disappointing.

I recall renting it back in the day and circumstances prevented me from getting much time with it.

I am wrapping up GTAV right now and been waiting to play RDR for some time now, and this would have been a decent tide me over. Had there been a launch discount, then yeah, otherwise as with many others, to the wishlist it goes to wait for a big sale to put it at a proper price.

However I have to commend Activision for their commitment to GOG and DRM free by continuing to release additional games to GOG for distribution, but no 10+ year old game merits a 20$ price tag. Should be 10, maybe dependent on quality of game or amount of content 15 at most. If people did not buy V:TM-Bloodlines for that amount (Or Morrowind for Bethesda) then they aren't going to buy Gun which was at best a "Middle A" release at best.

So while Its hard to look past that kind of price tag, I do appreciate Activision at least making it available, Unlike certain other publishers like EA and Square Enix that refuse to add additional games, or open up their back library.

______________________

Anyone else notice out of the biggest Publishers available on GOG, EA, Acti, SE, for some reason they seemingly want to make available mostly if not only the titles of subsidiary houses they acquired instead of their own proprietary titles.
Like SE, we get all the old Eidos games, but why no FF7 or FF8 or any of the proprietary titles when PC versions exist AND were recently added to Steam.
Wow, this game looks cool. I've never even heard of it before. Gun? Such a generic title is unfortunate. I would never have guess it is set in the Wild West. I hope the actual game has more imagination than its title.
Lol no discount of any kind?

GOG is not a german store. They are not bound to german laws.

A lot of germans are buying retail games in foreign stores like gameware in austria for example. They ship all the indexed and banned games to germany. And if they can do that, why can't GOG?
