Red Dead Redemption

was kind of considering going out to buy this today, but looks like it'll be tomorrow.

was pissed ranting about this to non-game playing friend in pub tonight, i don't think he was quite on my level of excitement.

This game is exactly what I wanted it to be.

Is multiplayer broken or are dudes just whining on the internet?

It worked fine for me.

just got a little too into a poker game.

i won but fuck that dude.

lololol. cannot wait to play this.

is the map fucked up for anyone else? if i try to zoom in and then stop, it will just slowly zoom in and then slowly pan until it is fully zoomed in.

I got eaten by a cougar. :(

Went to target tonight, sold out.

i've never heard of liar's dice before, but it's fun. the mini-games are pretty well done. i don't play texas hold 'em regularly or seriously, but i've been impressed by how realistically these dudes are playing cards.

any truth to the rumour that asda were told they were not allowed to sell the game at a low price and so are not even selling the game at all now out of spite?

Couldn't decide whether to buy this or ModNation Racers, Tesco made my mind up for me by being out of stock of Red Dead Redemption and having MNR for £34.

sorry dude but that is worse than the time jeff lepine didn't buy uncharted 2 for three years

I've got a 9 month old baby, I haven't got enough time in my days for this game.

I'm just messing :)

marston has a flat butt

You're right though, I really really want to buy this.

Massive PS3 Red Dead shortage hits UK

"copies available almost everywhere" isn't really a "massive shortage"

gives websites a chance to say RED DEAD REDEMPTION again, more hits.

sorry dude but that is worse than the time jeff lepine didn't buy uncharted 2 for three years

I've also yet to pick up RDR! I know I started this hype thread, but lately I'm unsure if I really want to play through a long single player game, especially right now. And multiplayer with auto-aim isn't something I can get into. Also too many games I already own at the moment that I'm enjoying (Bad Company 2, various CoD games, TF2, various racing games) or haven't had the time to even get into (like SSFIV).

did u even buy uncharted 2 in the end

yas, tesco delivered today.

no, doing stuff tonight and tomorrow night and working all weekend :(

Went to target tonight, sold out.

sheeeit

i went to the gamestop in my hood and the very nervous kid behind the counter said to come back maybe in a week

did u even buy uncharted 2 in the end

not yet

i want to buy this and i don't even have a current gen system

multiplayer is p.fun; didn't think I'd touch it tbh but I've just whittled away the afternoon playing the co-op instances and levelling up my donkey

xp ^^^

(neither can I justify the cost or the time outlay)

BRB LEVELLIN' MY DONKEY
god i gotta go buy this today

just a heads up jim, make sure tesco don't charge you full whack despite buying it w/a voucher. read some other reports that they've been funny buggers charging full price w/RDR for some reason

this game is gorgeous

the writing is incredible too; the dialogue is pin sharp and so well acted

I've been preaching for massive multiplayer games to have minigames like poker forever (I haven't played RDR so I'll see how it stacks). Ideally I would have a saloon where you could have chat consoles pop up for the whole place and/or a specific table (so I guess my mmo would be a computer game). Ideally the poker would be texas hold 'em and there would be other games like darts too. Lots of gambling

I might buy this game tonight (even though I'm going out of town soon)

if this is sold out i'm gettin 3-d dot heroes so win win

i bought it today :D 2 hs classmates are in the "population".

Killing me that my 360 isn't back yet.

jeff, there are hardcore playlists in MP which completely disable the auto-aim (unfortunately these have to be unlocked by levelling up, much like in cod)

i will be playing dragon origins and probly fallout 3 in place of this until monday. sigh.

god damn, i say!

Got it! Had to start the night planting stupid lilacs tho, may not get much time with it tonight.

Bought it... going downstairs to play it now.

Stupid Chicago postal system still not delivering this to me.

I got this earlier today and put in several hours, most of them spent just goofing off in the wilderness. My only complaint so far is that often, when I get off my horse momentarily to skin an animal, when it finishes the bloody process, the horse is suddenly far off in the distance. Maybe this is a weird bug, or maybe the game does it on purpose to demonstrate that you have a shitty horse.

this thread inspired me to watch the wild bunch tonight

is red dead redemption as good as the wild bunch?

if you tame a wild horse it constantly wanders off

that was like some dr phil relationship talk right there

I got off my horse once and turn around and suddenly it's perched high up on a boulder lol

got it. an hour later i'm still in tutorial.
