One disc: Mad Dog McCree, Mad Dog 2: The Lost Gold and The Last Bounty Hunter, all for $19.99. Sure, reviews have been… how shall we say–atrocious?–but that may be half the fun.

Bad dialogue, bad action, not-great lightgun gaming… if you grew up hanging around arcades, this may be your Nintendo Wii party game. Available now, on sale soon.
