Ubisoft and Polish developer Techland today announced that the First-person shooter Call Of Juarez is scheduled for a release on a next-generation console in 2007. As Ubisoft wants to launch the PC version of Call Of Juarez simultaneously to the upcoming console version, the North American PC release will be held back. Techland will use the time to improve the PC version significantly, and optimise it for Windows Vista. European release dates for Call Of Juarez remain unchanged.

Techland's Call Of Juarez is a shooter set in the old Wild West. Giving players the ability to immerse themselves in the authentic, vast landscapes of South Texas in 1883, the game revolves around the fate of Billy Candle. Billy has been accused of murdering his mother and stepfather. Hot on his trail is Reverend Ray McCall, his stepfatherÂ’s brother and an infamous gunfighter who believes the Lord has chosen him to be BillyÂ’s judge, jury and executioner. For the first time, players can take up the role of the hunted AND the hunter.

A PC demo of Call Of Juarez has recently been released to positive reception, the full version is set for a release this summer.

I just want to say that it is not "the first time players can take up the role of the hunted AND the hunter" I think you have forgotten about Fahrenheit, which is a brilliant game that that evolves around you are playing both sides.
