Edited by: Winged Crime on 15/05/2010 15:31:32 Seriously can't wait. Just a few days hopefully (lame shipping times!)
Anyone else excited about playing it?
I don't think it'll be a stretch to think it'll be game of the year, or one of gamespots coveted perfect 10 scores. It's not often I can say that about something, let alone something that isn't released yet. It'd have to be pretty buggy to be bad though I think..
Just watch Gameplay series: Multiplayer free roam & Gameplay series: Life in the west: part 1 & 2

I'm thoroughly enjoying it. It captures the feel of the Wild West pretty well, I was expecting GTA IV with cowboys, but its more polished and better than that. Not to say I didn't like GTA IV, but it wouldn't have made a good Western game. Rockstar once again proved itself as a very good, polished gaming company.

I got the TV back.
Have to say I was puzzled by the choice of the time setting, I was expecting late 19th century not early 20th but it's shaping up nicely, seeing the old and new meet in a less than subtle way, when I first read about the game I never thought for a minute it would be set a couple of years before WW I, but it is and I honestly think Rockstar have created something special here, I've only scratched the surface but I'm hooked, if you have a PS3 or 360 get it you wont be disappointed, and that's only after 4+ hours and a couple of filleted fingers.
It's fair to say I'm an older gamer and very fussy but this a very pleasant surprise, more info to follow.

Edited by: Winged Crime on 20/05/2010 21:26:21 Edited by: Winged Crime on 20/05/2010 21:26:06 So far it's been fantastic.
My only complaints are regarding the free roam multiplayer. I consider the multiplayer a 'bonus' anyway, as it's all about the single player.
But:
-Free roam is pretty buggy and needs some gameplay tweaks (getting camped in a PVE mission area spawn point with a knife is no fun)
-Free roam, I thought, would let us run around robbing banks and maybe even upgrading our own hideouts or whatever. I was disappointed to find there is no way to interact with anything in the banks besides walking around. Hopefully they introduce more interactivity into the free roam, I think it should be more like the single player minus the story content.
Single player is amazing. Multiplayer still has lots of fun to be had despite minor disappointment with free roam.
PS - another clever innovation: Rockstar have tied the game in with their "Social Club" community, and they appear to be continually issuing new challenges (kind of like achievements) for you to pursue on a regular basis, as well as comparing a wide array of stats and things to other players. Maybe you're bad at racking up kills, but you can be a player that is the most successful at cheating at poker, or hunting bears, or something... It's pretty fun stuff - http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/rdr/community.html

Not tried MP yet but I was more interested in the team play side but the free roam would be a nice distraction, I don't doubt it will get sorted tho, still not going to give it a go until Saturday, busy day tomorrow so I don't want to try it half arsed.

I was wondering how they would handle the radio. Can't wait to hear what goodness they came up this time around as I sometimes play the other gta games just for the soundtrack whilst cruising around.

10/10, no question.

Aaaaand after getting the game I see there is no horse radio to tune into you bugger.. Thats ok as I didn't really see how it would work anyways and the game so far is utterly fantastic. This is an actual mature game in that its not an excuse to run around and kill cops or run over pedestrians in your stolen car as you giggle and squirt out your nose the warm milk your mummy brought you. Total Rockstar Win! \o/

Indeed. One time, it was the first hand of the game, and I ended up getting a full house of 3s over 4s, (crappy house, but there was nothing else anybody could have had) and so I started betting aggressively. One of the others took me up on my bets and we got up to all but like 8 chips from our hand... One guy was trying to bluff, and the other guy had 4s over 3s
On the other hand, the exact same thing happened in reverse with 8s over 7s and I ended up winning all but 15 chips (of a thousand) in one round in a later game

Gotta be dressed for the occasion. Loving all the little details so far. This game has obviously had alot of careful thought put into it by people who know the genre and respect it. Calling game of the year now.
Originally by: Mazzarins Demise No PC version yet makes me a sad panda :(
Pc version always comes out 6 months to a year after the console though in this case I'm thinking it might be sooner. So far though the ps3 version is excellent and I don't miss not having it for pc at all.

Im loving it, only a few hours in.
My favorite actions so far was duelling a guy, disarming him without killing. THen as he ran away i lassooed him, tied him up, threw him over my horse. Rode to the ravine on the border to mexico and tossed him over the ledge Please resize your signature to the maximum allowed of 400 x 120 pixels with a maximum file size of 24000 bytes. |

I think you misunderstood my joke. Sorry. I was trying to explain that you'll be listening to those things instead of radio stations ;)
