While
Call of Juarez pulls off all the classic FPS mechanisms with aplomb, it also
features interesting variations that give it the air and feel of a true Western
movie. The player has the genuine impression of being a pistol-packing hero in
an age when armed confrontation was the daily grind for many adventurers. The
Developers have incorporated a classic shooting system as well as two extra game
modes.

Call of Juarez is a DirectX 10 benchmark and was tested
within Microsoft Windows Vista. As you can see here, the benchmark is very hard
on all videocards. The MSI NX8600GT-T2D256E only does moderately well at
1024x768, with low details enabled. At the max image quality setting in
1600x1200, it's too much for even the powerful MSI NX8800GTX-T2D768E.
This
fast-paced third person shooter takes you across the vast and frozen landscape
of E.D.N III. The ability to fight stealthily on-foot or from within heavily
armored Vital Suits offer two unique modes of gameplay. While on foot, use the
zip line to get to strategic enemy annilhilating vantage points and discover
unexplored areas and weapons. Or, jump into our vital suit or hijack an enemy
Snow Pirate's VS to go head to head with enormous and more powerful Acrid
foes.

The DirectX 10 version of Lost Planet is hard on the MSI
NX8600GT-T2D256E, but at least you get a taste of what this game is about at the
low quality setting, running in 1024x768. Anything higher is simply too much for
the videocard. Then again, turning up the details and resolution gives even the
mighty GeForce 8800GTX a hard time.
