Ah Sunset Riders, another great arcade-to-home-console port. Sunset Riders is a great action game in which you control one of four cowboys from the old Wild West on a mission to… well they never really explain it. Best I can tell they’re just bounty hunters moving up the foodchain, and that’s just fine for our purposes.Let’s Play Sunset Riders

Once again I was joined by Todd for this game and we had a great time playing through this decently difficult game. The game is difficult enough on normal difficulty, but if you’re really up for a challenge or just some self-torture, then give the difficult/expert mode a try where bullets move as fast as… well… bullets.

I was always a Bob guy growing up as I dug the increased range of the shotgun, though it’s just as satisfying playing as one of the six shooter guys for the quicker firing rate.

This game is also one of the best western themed games and although I didn’t live during the days of the Wild West, I feel like it represents it pretty accurately, probably maybe. That might not be true at all, but hell the gameplay is smooth as silk and the soundtrack will make you want to saddle up and take on a bounty or two of your own.
