The graphics and sound are okay and the game is quite playable. But with Ultimate the hope is for something new and original and for them Outlaws is rather ordinary. Read Review

Generally a dull game... If Ultimate continue releasing products below their usual standard, then they should at least price them accordingly. Read Review

The Game
Many years ago, rode a band of men. They came from the East of the desert, and with them they brought terror and destruction. Nobody was safe from the perils of a merciless death, no family was complete, no man was free.
They were the "outlaws".
Driven only by murderous ambition and selfish greed they scoured the land, leaving behind them a trail of death and pillage. Town after town they plundered, with no man left who could stop them and no man left alive who dare try. The townsfolk lived at their mercy and prayed that the evil band of men's dark shadow of doom would not pass over their valley. Frightened though they were, they still found hope, and they prayed that one day someone would come and deliver them from the outlaws' evil tyranny.
The Lone Rider
Many months of hell passed and then, one night out of a clear moonlit sky, across a fiery storm and through this storm rode a man, a stranger with vengeance in his eyes. He had no name and no past, he had been sent to avenge them, for he was the Lone Rider.
You are the Lone Rider - go forth and save, answer the good people's prayers.
How To Play
Horse: Pushing left or right will cause the horse to walk in that direction. By keeping the joystick pushed, the horse will trot and then gallop respectively. Pushing the joystick forward will cause your horse to jump. However, your horse will only jump when trotting or galloping.
Lone Rider: Pulling the joystick towards you will cause the Lone Rider to duck.
Shooting: To shoot your gun in the direction you are facing, press the fire button and then move the joystick in that direction. You may also shoot your gun in the same manner, diagonally up and down in the direction you are facing. To shoot behind you, again with the fire button depressed, move the joystick in the direction opposite to which you are facing. You may also shoot into the distance, by pressing the fire button and pushing the joystick forward.
