Average score from experts who have reviewed this product.
Hidden agenda system puts an unusual and intriguing strain on cooperative multiplayer. It also creates some suspenseful narrative twists near the end.
Dated graphics. Generic gunfights. Linear levels. Gratuitous swearing and nudity.
A kernel of originality found in cooperative play is lost in this otherwise uninspired and thoroughly mediocre first-person shooter. For example, in one mission I was instructed to go after an important suspect escaping a firefight while my partners h...

The glimpses of innovation in multiplayer in no way compensate for what is a unremarkable, derivative and poorly executed game. In high-tailing it out of the Wild West, The Cartel might have cleverly avoided a showdown with Red Dead Redemption, but in shi...
The game is releasing in the middle of this big summer gaming dry spell and does have it’s moments but in the condition it’s in those moments aren’t worth your time. Maybe if the game gets patched. Or re-released as a directors cut. Michael O'Reilly B...
Abstract: Techland should receive some praise for taking a risk here by taking a character from their Western-themed games -- Call of Juarez, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood -- and moving him into "present day" largely unchanged. Last time we saw Ray ...

Abstract: How did this happen? That's the biggest mystery.Here we had Call of Juarez, a rootin' tootin' old west FPS that was fun, polished and carried us across its dusty shooting galleries with heart and soul. After the modest success of 2009's CoJ: Bound in Bl...
Abstract: Nach zwei Western-Teilen will es „Call of Juarez: The Cartel“ nun mit einem anderen Setting versuchen. Sie übernehmen also die Geschicke von drei verschiedenen Charakteren, die sich nur unwesentlich voneinander unterscheiden. Grund genug, Geld auszugeb...
Abstract: Fribrottarliknande knarksnutar, spanska svordomar och vildsinta biljakter står på schemat när Techland slopar vilda västern till förmån för Los Angeles undre värld...
Abstract: The folks at Techland had some truly great ideas for Call of Juarez: The Cartel. In today's shooter market, frankly, it's a huge relief not to be shooting aliens or fighting in a full-scale military conflict. And besides avoiding those pitfalls, The Ca...
