Re: Red Dead Redemption

I was reminded of the movie "Pale Rider" ....

Spoiler

I saw the part where John gets killed on Youtube, and it resembled the movie when the deputies shot that guy in town holding the gold nugget, then quietly walked away..

Am I the only person that didn't hear the song "Far Away". I wonder if it's because I looted the bodies first.

I've seen others posting online in various places that they didn't either but it doesn't sound very common.

That's a shame, that's one of the highlights of my experience with RDR so far. Though not quite out of Mexico yet.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Had a hilarious glitch when I was clearing a gang hideout: I was sprinting up to a rock to take cover and I slid into the rock and it was like there was a trap waiting at the rock because my character sprung up into the air about 150ft then fell back to earth and died.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

So, I'm a really honorable guy in this playthrough. If I put on the bandana it keeps me from taking the honor hit for doing bad things? I'll still have to pay bounties, but just no hit with honor and whatnot?

correct.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Few things that have tweeked me about the game thus far wanted to get you guys' opinions since i am by no means a student of the late 1800's/early 1900's.

John Marston talks, sometimes, like a dude from another generation, as do a lot of people.

Spoiler

For instance, he makes mention of his "dance card being full" and he makes a comment about a high school reunion at once point. Also there is a mission where we are black mailing a politician with photographs, its like dude this is the old west, are there spy cams?

also it bugs me that they call the sniper rife, a sniper rifle. I mean Im sure they had something similar but its not called a sniper rife back then was it?

That's an awesome one.

No song for me either and I did loot the bodies after the shootout.

Don't let it annoy you. The term came into use after the civil war. Prior to that the terms "sharpshooter", and "skirmishers" was used. Completely appropriate.

They also had reunions after the civil war (soldiers who served), so you'd think they'd have high school reunions around the turn of the century, which I think is when this takes place.

I did something like this when I was tying someone up on a mountain. I had my horse too close to the side of the mountain and as I was placing the guy on my horse, I went through the mountain and didn't levae it before the animation finished out. I then fell through some weird Andy Warhol like space that was all tye-dye colored for a few seconds. Then everything came back and I was lying face first on the ground and a fox was staring at me. I chased it and killed it with my knife becasue I thought it was mocking me.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Does the bandanna actually work, or is it just cosmetic? I ask because I've killed a couple randoms cause I was bored with it on and my honnor did not get effected.

yeah, thats what the bandanna does, if you kill them with it off, you lose honor.
