Westerns. The classic movie genre that gave birth to many legends including John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and loads more. But rarely has there been a video game that fully feels like a Western, that is, until now. For in Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, you'll get to experience a story that feels straight from a movie, combined with the strategy and options that only a video game can allow. Are you ready to put on the badge, to pull your gun, and to fight for the freedom of others? If so, then Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive. They year is 1881, the town, El Paso, a place just trying to get by, but is under siege by a group of thieves who are stealing supplies from trains that are intended for their town. When all hope seems lost, a bounty hunter comes to their rescue in the form of John Cooper. He promises to rid them of their problems, and even goes so far as to recruit five former partners in order to fulfill that promise. But, not everything is what it seems, and Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive will take John and his partners across much of the southwestern US on a quest to figure out what's really going on. And the answers may not be what you expect. You'll be able to control both John and his mercenary buddies in battle in real time. Each one has their own unique skillset for you to use. So use them wisely. Dive deep into this Western world, and see if you can keep the promise you made.
