[Official] Red Dead Redemption

[Spookie]

Ah thought as much. You're scrambling to make fake Twitter accounts now to back yourself up eh :p

Or maybe there was a sudden twitocalypse that just happened to wipe those tweets out and nothing else ;)

Ugh.

Physics is ****ing me off today. Though it's improved over GTA IV, I've just tried to place a bounty on my horse only to get it stuck in a tree then to top it off when I shot him in the face he clipped through the floor making him unlootable and the bounty unrecoverable. As much as I enjoy this game the niggles do grate after 10+ hours of play.

edit: GB still haven't received their copy of RDR along with Joystiq! I guess you can add Eurogamer to the list come GTA V!

I'm reading this thread and I don't even know what's real anymore

I read this thread last night and woke up this morning a garbage can.

[Sigurd]

Rockstar wouldnt send Joystiq a review copy :whistle: I wonder why. Will probably pick this up at some point down the road after ive played through the rest of my pile, looks quite interesting.

- PS3 is in a lower res (640p? Don't quote me though) but looks less 'jaggy'.

- The 360 version has some tearing the PS3 doesn't.

- The PS3 has better sound.

- But potentially dodgy multiplayer but no one has judged the properly MP yet since, apparently, R* told them no going online.

- They both have frame rate dips in MP (think GTA IV) but the line is much more gray between the two this time around.

That muddied the water enough for you? D:

edit: Anyone notice that Metacritic hasn't put up Eurogamers review? :|

[Massiveterra]

so noone played the multiplayer yet?

[Hedon]

People at the playstation.com forums are reporting tearing and jaggies on the PS3 version as well. On single player that is. They are not reporting any success getting into the multiplayer.

Getting mine tomorrow for xbox, can't wait! Then I can use my $20 amazon coupon and get alan wake :)

[Lamp0]

why obsessive over reviews at all, let alone if you believe they're payed for.

[SimplySchizo]

I'll have my copy in 2hrs. My local GS called me up and said they had a last minute change to go ahead and hold a midnight event on this game!

[Spookie]

I've so gotta get in to PR sooner for these kinds of rewards. :p

[Remysaus]

12 hours in the game and all I can say is.. Rockstar.. you did it again :D

[.KICK]

I have not paid any attention to this game whats so ever! I should go look up videos and stuff.

I went in blind and enjoyed myself. Had no expectations and was surprised by the quality of the game. Watch the raw footage on youtube if Rockstar still isn't issuing notices for it to be pulled down. You'll get a better idea if you like it or not.

edit: Ah found it at last. Justin from Joystiq confirming R* is holding back review copies.

[Motoko.]

Ahh yeah just picked up my copy for Xbox too!

woot!

[Drunk Ninja]
