About This Game

The rules of engagement are simple; If they are armed: OPEN FIRE. Unleash a deadly array of weapons from a convoy of the creme of the modern American military. This time don't worry about running out of ammo, instead worry about saving your own skin! The cities and towns around you hide a fierce and fanatical enemy. Come face to face with the deadliest of traps; Improvised explosives! At anytime civilian vehicles around you can become vehement bombers, Roadside rubble hiding enough explosives to mangle and destroy most modern machines. When you aren't directly engaging leftover cold war tanks and APCs, armed forces with RPG's dive out to meet you. The AK-47 remains a staple and releases a constant barrage of fire from all sides. Switch freely between vehicles and their many mounted weapons and engage the enemy with true arcade-turret style gameplay. 360 degrees to experience a vision of battle, of dire conflict as it plays out in the digital desert. The most modern weapons are only as good as the gunner who operates them, your wide variety of weapons and armor remain vulnerable to attack.

A moments hesitation; a folded flag.

Just shootin'...thats all I expected. and thats all this game promised, and it is exactly where the game fails. I get no sense that my guns are doing damage, either that or the gunsights are off. Shoot and shoot and shoot and the enemy tank keeps coming and then I am killed. I soon realized I was not having fun. Munkey is moving on.

I am very stunned with the quality of this game. The game was officially released Dec 31 2006, but the game is one of the best you could probably find. It takes skill, patience, and the capability to enjoy yourself. The game is amazing, and out of 5, I'd honestly rate this game a 6. It is top of the line, without a doubt. I truly recommend everyone to buy the game, seeing as the price is amazing too!

Save your money and buy some tic tacs instead. You'll have more fun that way.

Desert Gunner is so good it does not need a picture in my games list 11/10

Not worth the 50 cents, not worth the 84 meg download. Animation is wooden, movement is choppy, and the muzzle flash looks like a texture tear. 1/10. At least the quit button works correctly.

First let me get this out of the way: I've played this for probably an hour, despite what steam's weird gametime tracking thing says. I've played it on a few different computers which is probably why it says I've played it for such a short time. Secondly: This is probably the second worst game I've gotten on Steam, the worst obviously being Air Control. In Desert Gunner, you're a guy manning a turret. In the desert. That's literally it. The "multifacited levels" the game description promises is really just one level where your convoy drives slowly in a straight line and you shoot at things. Unlike some of the great turret shooters out there (Beachhead 2002, lookin' at you buddy), in this one you'll have NO clue weather or not you're actually hitting anything. You fire and fire and fire and no visible damage or anything happens. Then your'e dead. Start the level over again. But when you start the level over again you won't be able to tell because the whole level is a straight line. ...

Not the worse 50 cents I spent, but close. The Mouse sesnativity in the game is WAY to high for my computer so I can't controle my aim. Too bad this game is so cheap and poorly written that there is no way to set the key bindings or adjust my mouse sensativity so I could actually play the game to find out if I like it.
