Call of Juarez the Cartel – PS3 Techspot

Call of Juarez the Cartel – PS3 has a movie setting, when a Mexican drug cartel bombs a U.S. law enforcement agency, the U.S. government puts together a special task force to bring them down. As you fight to dismantle the Cartel and unfurl the mystery of the bombing, you’ll embark on an epic, bloody road trip from the streets of Los Angeles to Ciudad Juarez. Protect your witness and put an end to the Cartel by any means necessary in this modern-day Western shooter.

Call of Juarez the Cartel campaign is littered with awkward co-op moments in which the three central characters stand around talking on mobile phones or picking weapons in “hub” sections that should have been menu screens. When the first-person-shooter action actually arrives it is sluggish and boring: drive-in; shoot several waves of Mexicans; car chase out; repeat. At one crucial point, there is also a VIP to protect.
