Mad Dog McCree: Gunslinger Pack

Mad Dog: McCree: Gunslinger Pack is 3 shooter games that are successfully ported for Nintendo Wii. Instead of a computer generated targets like any other shooting game, this game uses a real life actors as targets. The players will feel like they're inside a western cowboy movie once they play this game. The game's rule is easy... shoot the bad guys and leave the innocent. Even though they use a life action people as target, the only problem with this game is that the enemies will always appear from the same place. Players just need to make sure where to target and this thing gets boring easily. This game just too easy, maybe suitable for those trying to get accustomed with the Wii Motion control. Mad Dog McCree is a mediocre game.

Verdict: 4/10
