Chicago – Rarely have I played a game more frustrating than “Call of Juarez: The Cartel.” It’s far from the worst game of the year. It’s not even the worst game of the season. But it’s underdeveloped, disappointing, and sometimes plain broken when it could have been something truly great. This is a game that should have worked and there are elements that do but the overall title never quite comes together.

Video Game Rating: 2.5/5.0

The last “Call of Juarez” title was the surprisingly-enjoyable “Bound in Blood” in 2009. The Western-themed shooter didn’t change any of the rules but worked on its terms and was a lot of fun for fans of the genre. Naturally, one would expect a follow-up to be a similar experience. One would be wrong. “The Cartel” moves its action to present-day Los Angeles and basically changes the entire structure of the game outside of shooting people. »

Given the way the last game ended (spoiler alert), I think it's reasonable to expect some sort of treasure-hunting adventure from "The Cartel," though that title certainly indicates that the South and Central American drug trade could also play a part.

Ubisoft director of marketing Adam Novickas writes in the press release, "'Call »
