I
really fucking love the original Red Dead Revolver. I don't really know why, but this was one of the first games I got on my original Xbox and I have absolutely played the shit out of it. This was way before Red Dead Redemption was even on the table, and I also had Gun around the same time and just lost interest in it over RDR. The game is a chaotic mess of gunfire and arcadey controls. The bosses are ridiculous; you fight cannibals, a giant fat man who can blow himself up without being injured, a teleporting stage magician, a literal army of clowns and circus freaks, a BDSM negress that attacks you with a bullwhip, and all of that is before you even get into the main plot.
The controls take some getting used to, but the game is just fucking hilarious. You need to grind a little to get the money to buy better weapons, but once you've beaten the campaign once you should have everything you need to go back to even the most frustrating levels and clean house.
The soundtrack is also spectacular. All of the music is taken from old vintage spaghetti westerns. Some of them are great hidden gems like Apocalypse Joe and His Name Was King, but some are from shitty 70s schlock like Deaf Smith & Johnny Ears, but I would bet anyone here actual money you'd have probably never heard any of the music if it weren't for this game. I'll put up a few chocie tracks to give you guys an idea.

The game had a PC port too, so just go pirate or something, its worth at least one playthrough.
