Was 'The Cartel' Really That Bad? | A Retrospective

I’ve been playing through the Call of Juarez series and since the first title people have been telling me to skip The Cartel. They all trashed it, I actually haven’t seen a single person say they liked it, 100% of feedback was negative in my comments. I wanted to find something good to talk about. I was rooting for the underdog, but my god, this game was absolutely terrible, and it nearly killed the whole series.
