The_Rev Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Another part of Rockstar. GTA games are made by Rockstar North, of Edinburgh. This is being made by Rockstar San Diego. Most of the hype around this game isnt because of GTA though, its because Red Dead Revolver was so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sie Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Most of the hype around this game isnt because of GTA though, its because Red Dead Revolver was so good. Oh I don't know about that. I'd say there is easily more people buzzing about this game because "It's from Rockstar and looks like GTA set in a western" rather than "It's the sequel to Red Dead Revolver".

jon_c Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I just looked it up Dan Houser has still written Red Dead Redemption, so all intends and purposes it is going to be very Grand Theft Auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junxs Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Are we likely to get demo before the release? I've been checking PSN Store every week for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Pre-ordered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Just a heads up in case anyone read my last post in here but shopto are taking preorders of the limited edition copy of the game. As others have said its 42 quid so you save yourself 8 quid from other places and will most likey get the game a day earlier than planned. One thing about this game that i hope doesnt come to question..with people buying the Limited Ed of the game, with the extra dead eye and war horse etc etc, I hope you cannot use it online because then its like an advantage to the people who can afford it..and to me that wouldnt be fair.. Also I hope people cannot use auto aim online, because that would really piss me off..GTA4 was pretty annoying for that because you can MP5 people from half a mile away. It would also be pretty good if you could use your lasso in creative ways like tying both ends to trees and making horses trip up on it an shit..but i sadly doubt that will happen! But im really excited about this game.. I loved GUN but was sad about the way after you completed it, there was barely naff all to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sie Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I'm just going for the regular edition which I pre-ordered for £30 when The Hut had a promo code doing the rounds. I can't think of a single limited edition version of a game with bundled perks I've bought that has added anything meaningful or impacted gameplay to an unfair degree online. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me to see the warhorse etc landing as paid DLC a month down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Yea I did think that sie. I just think that if online and the Limited Ed people's dead eye meter is going up twice as fast as everyone else's I can see it getting used in the posse side of it. I just think that premium content should NOT be advantagous to anyone in an online sense. Its elitist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR.Smalljob Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Pre-ordered the regular edition on Amazon for 34£ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Previews suggest that the dead eye meter won't just be a cooldown like it is in single-player, it's a power-up ability that spawns on the map. I've been thinking about getting a 360 so I can play mates at FIFA, this has pretty much made it a sure thing, it looks awesome. Just a matter of trying to find a decent priced bundle, now.

MR.Smalljob Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 From the New York Times Review In the more than 1,100 articles I have written for this newspaper since 1996, I have never before called anything a tour de force. Yet there is no more succinct and appropriate way to describe Red Dead Redemption. Rockstar rides again New York Times Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sie Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Gonna wait and see what offers the supermarkets have i think... Dunno if they're going to follow through (or perhaps it's already been sorted out) but for reasons unknown, Asda are apparently boycotting the sale of the game in their stores.

AVFCDAN Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Played the first hour or so. Quite a polished game, not sure what to think of it at this point. Doesn't seem like a 10/10 game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
