This is definitely on my radar now. Can't wait to see some more info/screens.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I love the artwork for the game so far.

Same here. It reminds me of the Sergio Leone spaghetti westerns from the 60's and 70's quite a bit.

Whores and Horses beware; both will be ridden and abused.

I hope they have a "Get three coffins ready" moment in this game somewhere.

IGN Preview

They may share two of three words in their titles and be labeled as Western-themed games, but it doesn't seem like the upcoming Red Dead Redemption is going to be much like its predecessor, Red Dead Revolver. While the first game (which wasn't actually a Rockstar original but rather a project imported from Capcom and completed internally) was more of a stage-based affair with some mild platforming thrown in, it appears Rockstar is going all out with Redemption. The sequel is going to be set in an open world, which Rockstar claims is one of the largest it has created.

Rockstar San Diego is working on the game primarily, but also helping out are parts of Rockstar's GTA team, along with members from Rockstar's Leeds team. Thoughts about how an open world could be meshed with a Western-style game were being exchanged even as Rockstar acquired a few semi-completed levels of Red Dead Revolver, but the company had to wait until the appropriate technology came along to start up production. Redemption is being built on Rockstar San Diego's RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine), the same one used in titles like Grand Theft Auto IV and Table Tennis. For physics, Rockstar is using some of its own tech combined with Natural Motion's Euphoria, which makes for interesting post-impact character and object model reactions.

Same here. Is this coming late in the fall?

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Looking pretty solid. It's about time someone did a decent western game and knowing Rockstar, they will probably come through with a great game. Wonder if they have any plans for anything online.
