Re: Red Dead Redemption

After playing this game for 4 hours I can safely say it's way better than GTA 4.

Little Things

-I am terrible at keeping a herd together
-Saw a npc get down on his Knees and dump his head in water several times
-I walked in front of a npc with binoculars and surprisingly, he said "Thats not nice Mister"

The economy system is even deeper and more rewarding than I thought. I had a 250$ bounty on my head.

Looting dead bodies is fun

The shootouts are intense and gruesome.

I havent even explored other parts of the map

197 $
Game completed- 9.8 %
Missions completed-8

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I won't go into too much detail but the PS3 suffers from a stuttering camera and jaggies that become very apparent in sunlit areas.

Isn't this expected with the ps3 though? Not trying to start a console war, but every ps3 I've played has had jaggies. I thought ps3 had no anti-aliasing.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I pulled a gun on a guy in the Five Finger Fillet again...The guy told me "Be calm, be calm." While his other two lackeys both pulled guns on me. Instead of getting in a fight in the middle of a town, I holstered my gun.

To my surprise, so did the two NPC's with the guns. No bounty, everyone went on about their business.

Then, in front of the brothel, I had to kill another man because he was about to kill a whore. I love this game. No morals, anything goes!

Whores aren't real people -- never save the whore, duh.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

HOLY HELL! I just found a few boars and started shooting, they ended up raming me off my horse and as i was frantically running from them and shooting back at em, a MOUNTAIN LION pounced on me and killed me! crazy sequence!

Re: Red Dead Redemption

With the amount of dudes I have killed saving whores, it's about to be about saving the bullet rather than saving the woman.

Seriously, I feel like I'm Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse every time I pass the brothel/bar/poker house in Armadillo.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Lol, I can't believe I failed the first mission. Only thing I don't like so far, an instant fail.

Spoiler

I didn't know how far it was to Bonnie's house, so I go to the ranch and steal a horse, little do I know there's some guy chasing after me. After I talk to Bonnie, we get on our horses and start to trot slowly. This guy comes up from behind and yanks me off of my horse. So, because I won't tolerate anything like that, I pull out my pistol and shoot him in the face. Instant Fail. Bonnie doesn't tolerate criminal behavior.

Other than that, campaign is just as fun as free roam, which says a lot. I have Alan Wake coming from GF tomorrow, but I don't think I'll be able to put this one down.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

My copy just arrived on my porch. I've been waiting for over a year and a half for this game, and the time is finally hear to see if it lives up to the excitement. I've always loved Westerns and really enjoy Rockstar games ever since Bully so I have high hopes for this one.

I've got to finish some yard work, cook something to eat, watch some Lost and Justified (as well as checking on the Celtics game), and then I'll be able to play some.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I jumped off a building and started tapping A to open my parachute, ala Bad Company 2.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I was online in FR just walking along. I hear shots fired behind me, I whirl around gun drawn thinking I'm gonna have to defend myself from an ambush. Only the shooter was shooting a guy with a horse. Guy on horse dies, being opportunistic I jump on the horse and beat feet because I was now getting shot at. Made it away on the horse!

yup...same here. I just tried again and it's still a no-go. Oh well...I'm sure they'll get it figured eventually.
