Review by Gamespot
“…it's hard to shake the feeling that Call of Juarez: The Cartel was
rushed to retail before it was ready. That's disappointing, because this
first-person shooter shows the signs of potential greatness. Few games combine
the elements of cooperation and competition so ingeniously. There's nothing
like being a dirty double-crosser–and getting away with it. It's invigorating
to fulfill a challenge, yanking the experience points from under your comrades'
noses and flaunting your shooting skills. The Cartel is worth playing if you
have a buddy or two along for the ride. Otherwise, the potential is hard to see
hiding behind all the glitches and obscenities.”
