ya that's the reason why you finished in 6 hours. I just got done chapter 5 ( out of 15) and it showed 4 hours and change in the game log.

guess what ? I'm playing as Thomas and it's not bad at all. His rifle is great....can't wait to play as Ray after this run thru though. Single player is so well-done. when you die, it never feels cheap

It feels like COD series in the western setting, with no respawning enemies and smarter AI. two things I wanted differently from the COD series offline mode......

More OSers need to get this game....a posse of 6 with good communication can do some major damage online...

my GT is rizface...add me.

No I beat it in 6 hours because it's 6 hours. I just did chapter 1 over again and did it 15 minutes faster than I did on easy,probably because I knew the cannon goes where the bottom of the crosshair is and not the middle. You just play slow. The Gamespot review says 7 hours with side missions wich I admitted to only doing one of,IGN says 10 hours or less and TeamXbox says 6 hours. Might as well get the cow achivement while I'm here.

well I guess it depends on how you play and the level of difficulty...you're right about that. If i try to play fast on the hard level , I will get killed so fast. hehe, it kinda forced me to take my time, use cover etc. u have this for ps3 eh ? if on 360 maybe we can do MP together.

It's definitely not 6 hours on hard. Running through the level will get you killed so quickly it isn't funny.

[goh]

Well it's 6 on easy and medium without sidequest,secrets and being a good sniper. I tried very hard and couldn't get past the sniper part at the first since they apprently have xray vision and can shoot through rocks/trees and I can't shoot through a leaf.

I have it on 360. It just wasn't on my gamercard because I don't go online on the weekends since they don't update the marketplace and I don't/can't do online play so there's no point. My PS3 is broken wich is what it says in my PSN tag. My PSN tag isn't it's broken due to YLOD,it's actually broken.

Apprently they didn't consider this because this part is overly difficult when there's an infinte supply of enemies and they all take 3 shots to kill because you don't have a decent weapon.

I just beat the game and ran into this problem when I got to the level where you have to

Spoiler

load the hut with 3 horses so you can save william and marrisa.

However, there is a wagon right outside the fort where you can buy weapons from. Even if you didn't do side missions you should've still had enough for at least one suitable gun from the cash you picked up off of the people you've killed.

Overall, it was a good game. I kind of assumed the ending before I got there but it was still enjoyable.

I didn't notice that for quite some time. After I had brought back the 2nd horse and already had a better gun that was laying around somewhere.

Rented this game a couple of days ago and finally finished it early this morning.

A lot of fun. I really enjoy the Wild West setting. The graphics are phenomenal and the story, along with the voice acting, are some of the best I've experienced.

Looking forward to Red Dead Redemption this fall.
