Got to love people that come in just to take swipes at folks, instead of actually contributing to the topic at hand or the board in general. Well done sir, you get a cookie..... DD
Bidda bing bidda bang. Thanks to the previous two posters for making another thread about me, instead of the subject at hand, you are both really stellar contributors, and make this board so much better. Oh, check that...opposite day ! As for RDR, it is going to be fun, if you like westerns it will be great, the hope is that more people really get into them, and they get GTA style of sales figures.... I hope they do, because maybe then other publishers will take a harder look at different styles of games and not the same ole, same ole... DD
DD, it always seems like something crawled deep up your canyon. You love to make jokes yet you take them as well as brian_chapmans wife takes number 2, which suffice to say isnt well at all. Great you work in the game industry, you love unproven international players, but if you put yourself so out there in an online community youre bound to become subject of some chiding, so take it and enjoy it. As far as RDR is concerned I have been salivating at this game for months now, and I am pretty damn excited its day is finally arriving soon. All I have to do is not die before that day and I am good. YDS℠
Has it been confirmed at all that this has split-screen multiplayer...? That's what made the 1st game so awesome. Hopefully they haven't dumped the best aspect.

This looks revolutionary.
As much as part of me wants this game, the other part fears it'll be like GTA IV...I enjoyed GTA for a good 10 hours worth, then I had no desire to finish out the single player. Just the whole set up feels repetitive...and instead of being excited to do a mission, I find myself rolling my eyes and drudging through them. I guess I'll wait and see.
Same here, very eager. This is the only game that I have wanted since Fall 09. Just a long list of crappy games lately. I think Sunset Riders had me hooked on this genre ever since. <a href="http://photobucket.com/images/sunset%20riders" target="_blank"><img src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t196/flash31hops/sunsetriders.jpg" border="0" alt="sunset riders Pictures, Images and Photos"/></a>
Okay, gotta admit that it looks pretty ridiculous...I like the combat system, so that right there gets a nod over GTA for me. I think Im pretty much going to have to buy it now. FML.
I felt the same way, I don't think I even put 10 hours in. Do yourself a favor and switch over to the Saints Row series. It is much more varied and fun. I thought Saints Row 2 was a lot better than GTA IV.
