Yet another mod I needed to pay my respects to...As I'm going about, reviewing all the nostalgic titles which made my strange, lonely childhood more fun than it could have been without them.
Hot-dog diggity! Loved this mod. I was introduced to it via the retail version of "Counter-Strike" when it hit the shelves...I thoroughly enjoyed the incalculable hours of intense violence as I took part in the slaughter of thousands of Rustlers.
(Their eyes were just too got-damn close together for my takin' a likin' to.)
Yes, "Wanted!", the game where thousands will die over a single chicken as they brave the rugged climate of the 19th-Century American Southwest and all its lesser perils.
But lo! To my astonishment there was a full version! Oh, boy! I just had to have it...Forced my dad to download it on his screaming fast dial-up connection at work and he did indeed! He brought home a CD-R with all of the mods I wanted...Among them was the "They Hunger" trilogy. Anyway, "Wanted!" and its Wild West atmosphere was wonderful and immersive, the game play was nicely diversified and it was just plum fun! The skins weren't hideous and the voice acting, sound design and story were certainly compelling. Even the items were neat and conveyed that Old West feel nicely! "Oh, you're 'bleeding like a leaky sieve'? Try some of this whiskey!" The only thing it was missing was an Ennio Morricone-inspired soundtrack...oh, wait...
As for the weapons:
