Never been a big fan of western games, but this looks hot.

Red Dead Revolver wasn't that great, but the trailer TNT's been showing of this one looks great. I'll rent this. (Y)

If this is open world game, yeah, it looks pretty crazy. Playing Call of Juarez series, I actually thought open western world concept would be great.

Now... only if PC version is to be released...

If you can, I recommend you pick it up, just for the chance to use the new weapons.

Riding in formation with your biker buddies is pretty sweet too.

9.7 by IGN, and a 95 on Metacritic... if only a PC version came out...

This game has great graphics and gameplay mechanics. However, the first few missions that essentially have you working as a farm hand, have been pretty boring. Perhaps it will improve, but so far I just haven't gotten into it.

Plus, you can't swim for some reason.

the lack of swimming sucks but overall i have enjoyed the game. the missions so far have been nothing amazing like lamrock said but i have a shit load of fun with the lasso. hogtie someone and lay them down in front of a train. this game makes me realize just how addicted to poker i am. i have spent more time playing poker than playing the game. the five finger thing is like free money so i stopped playing it. cant figure out the horseshoes at all so i dont really do that.

the wildlife is a bit annoying at times. i was off looking for red sage flowers and i kept getting attacked by wolves. over and over again more wolves. bastards killed my horse. that horse owned and now i got a shitty one. actually i am on my 4th shitty one thanks to them damn wolves

Yeah, it kinda sucks that you can't even have your head under water. I was trying to sneak into Mexico and yeah... it was a fail to state the obvious.

There's a mission where you're protecting a train... reminded me a lot of San Andreas and the "all you had to do was follow the damn train CJ" mission. Took me a few attempts but I managed to get it done luckily.

Kathryn sneakily bought this for me (better be for me) without me knowing but with my account for $40. Hopefully it gets here before the move.

I take it the game is good?

I wish I was in elementary school so I could write one of those "Hero" Reports on you.


I'm going to have a lot of fun with this game

Finished this today. Not sure how I feel about the ending. It was pretty cool but also ultimately disappointing because I'd spent 40 hours playing with John and didn't want to use his Bieber-voiced son

Fucking awesome game. Nothing better than to hogtie someone, put them on the train tracks, and play Crazy Train while a train destroys him.
