12 Best Western-Themed Video Games Ever
5. Blood
Featuring a gunslinger protagonist, blasting his way across old-style, turn of the century terrains – with a slug of occult and sci-fi chucked in to boil – there’s no denying it: Blood is a rusty campfire pot filled with genres. It’s also a damn immersive first-person shooter, which boasts some of the best 3D graphics the nineties had to offer and also a genre first in featuring weapons with primary and secondary modes of attack. This genuis idea from developers Monolith Productions came in handy in a game where foes such as cleaver-wielding zombies, freaky cultists, and hellhounds come at you in droves. Brutal.
Like its blood-soaked genre mates of the time – Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior are Blood’s spiritual twisted spiritual brothers – the uniqueness of this game has seen it become something of a cult classic over the years.
