The first great Western game since Rising Zan (although you'd need to have a skewed opinion of games to call Rising Zan "great") is finally coming home.

Despite its lovely debut at E3 last year, Red Dead Revolver's been a bit under the radar in recent months. The release date's shifted downwards a bit (it's now coming out this summer), but the game still looks astoundingly fresh and new. Red, the hero of the game, starts out as a wandering drifter and eventually becomes the sheriff of local dirty Western town Tombstone�a heartwarming story if we ever saw one.

Capcom wasn't just inspired by old spaghetti wasterns when making this game�they've actually licensed music from Sergio Leone, the guy who wrote the scores for A Fistful of Dollars, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and many other fine specimens of the genre. Look out�they're serious. Hopefully a playable's coming soon.
