We're sure a lot of the guys have dreamt of becoming cowboys and gunslingers when they were young. For some of you who haven't quite gotten over it yet, here's a quick sneak peek at a Wild West video game title for the PC and Xbox 360, Call of Juarez.

The story revolves on two gunslingers, Billy Candle and Reverend Ray McCall. Billy gets wrongfully accused of murder and the reverend pursues him thinking for his brand of justice. Each character has his own style of gameplay and of course, different stories in Single player mode. Call of Juarez is a first person shooter (FPS) set in South Texas in the year 1882 when the west was wild with gun fights, noon duels, train and bank stick ups, and everything else the wild Wild West has to offer.

The long list of other features include:

• Detailed Wild West reality – distinctive characters, environments and life-like authentic weaponry, including colts, rifles, whips and bows.
