GameSpot's review for this one is up.
7.0 from G-Spot.

Another key difference between the PC and 360 versions of Call of Juarez is content. None of the extra missions or gun duels that the 360 version has as separate modes are present in the PC version
They should've included that in the PC version -- ummm, are they lazy or something?!?!?!

It looks noticeably better if you happen to have a video card that supports DirectX 10. On the higher resolutions, environmental details and grass/foliage are much denser and cleaner looking. Lighting and shadows are also more impressive. At the same time, even on a high-end PC, the game chugs a bit while running on the higher resolutions. It's nothing game breaking, but the frame rate drops quite a bit. It's also worth noting that on multiple test PCs, loading times for each chapter and multiplayer map were over the top.
So, they ain't fixed load times, eh?

I remember the PC demo, a year ago or so, had load time and performance issues. You'd figure they'd have fixed that somewhat, by now -- especially since the Euro version has been out for a bit and it has been patched a few times, already.
