Red Dead Redemption

I only have 1 day left on my rental. Trying to decide if it's really worth $60...
 
I've seen some shots between the 360 and PS3 and IMO the 360 looks better. Sharper visuals, more details. In one shot of an open field the 360 had more foliage on the screen at any given time.

I love my PS3 but I'm getting this for the 360.
 
Newegg has the game for $50 shipped on both consoles. If you were to buy it in the store (where I live at least) it would be over $64 after tax. It's the same price on Amazon but their shipping always takes forever for me.

Hey,I live in India too and wanted to get this game.Games usually come here after a day or 2 after the European release date dont they?Anyway,how do you know this will come on the 25th?Man,its bad enough how long I had to wait for GTA Episodes from Liberty City to come here(for ps3 that is). I hate how long games take before they come to india.This suks.Anyway,how do you know its gonna come out on the 25th?
 
Just completed the game…I loved it.

Was way better than I thought it could be and I had lukewarm expectations of it before playing.
 
How many hours to finish? Did you just burn through it or do all the side missions?

quote from him:
"it's taken me 20 if not a few more hours to beat"
i don't know about side quests for him.

I have been doing tons of them and having a bunch of fun non quest, with challenges and hunting, lassos are fun :) i'm at like 40% after 25 or so hours.
 
Somehow I was never got into GTA but this one I really enjoy.

Took 25 hours total for me to beat.

I have done tons of side missions then stuck to story.

Almost completed all stranger missions I only have 1 left to complete.

I’ve got 81.7% completed total now. That’s good for me…I don’t care about achievements or finishing every single minuet detail of a game. I don’t think I will complete it 100% because the reward isn’t great. I am not completely done playing SP. Still lots of stuff to do!
 
How good is the MP? I'm not looking for another MP FPS, but I would like to roam the lands as a bandit and clean out towns, terrorize people, and do it with a few other real people, or maybe be able to come across another group of bandits doing the samething. But I have a feeling this isn't quite possible.

I played the MP for a little bit last night when my game glitched and I got stuck. It's pretty fun, I didn't get to do too much. I got into a small posse and did a mission where bandits came in waves in a town which carried on to killing the gang leader and getting some rewards. There's a lot of unlockables.

I'm going to try and get in to some organized stuff this weekend to see whats going on there.

Oh, and it's not a MP FPS, it's 3rd person. ;)
 
i have this game yesterday played it for 3 hours and i must say they learnd alot of GTA4
now im really looking forward to GTA5.

the landscape is sooo wonderfull to ride tru it
 
Meh guess i dont like western theme games. I need cars and planes in a sandbox game :p never been keen on cowboy stuff either. But it is a good game ;)
 
Question..

HOW can CONSOLEs be ABLE to RUN such a detailed game at these FPS with those TinY graphic cards?!?!? This game has some nice graphics.
 
RDR looks pretty damn good for a console game. I own very few xbox titles as is and it's one of the best looking I've seen in the 5 years the 360 has been out.

It would be available in grey market by Today.
 
had this a few days ago and i can tell you that it is awesome, even better than GTA IV, theres so many improvements and they've added more side missions(missions that has nothing to do with the storyline and can repeated) i remember in GTA IV i even searched the net for fun things to do because i can't think of any fun things to do anymore, few locations, boring dates/activities, assassination missions that can't be repeated and not generic. plus the collision system was too sensitive, you were just bumped slighty by a car you would end up being a drunk man trying to keep his legs standing.

NOW Can't wait for a Next Full GTA game.
 
So....when is it going to be released to the best platform -THE PC-? :toast:
 
This IS RDR related...I was obsessed with Red Dead Revolver when it came out...so I made this stencil and posted them all over my city...

Great game. Worth $60 easily. Graphics are very good but what is awesome is how much detail, objects and random shit is going on at any given time with no loading zones and no fog. I mean you can literally see as far as your eyes can and all the detail is still there. No pop in graphics or world items when you move closer to them...everything that should be there is always there.

Audio is top notch and voice acting is fantastic! Story? Yup and it's good for a change.

This is an instant classic for sure!
