I feel you, was a pain in the *** to find it in stores even on release day.

Got it though!





EDIT: Game is nice but I'm a little disappointed that the nights aren't dark enough... it's full-moon galore every night and it doesn't feel right whereas in GTA IV, it was perfect.

And that's where the catch is, I thought that Red Dead would actually be exactly like GTA IV (graphics, character movements, gameplay mechanics, camera zoom levels, etc...) in a western setting but it's not and that's still ok but definitely not what I expected.

GTA IV was a masterpiece, Red Dead is a work of art in progress. Might think differently after I put more hours into it. I got to let go all of my GTA reflexes and expectations.

GTA 4 a masterpiece?

I think RDR has one up on GTA 4 simply because of the range of things you can do, and there are things to spend money on for once.

And somehow it's even more satisfying to shoot people than it was in GTA 4.

Yep, GTA IV is a masterpiece but that's just my opinion...

Anyways, Red Dead is bound to be on par with it! Played it extensively and it is simply awesome.

I'm only 1/3 into the main story so I can't fully judge the game but so far, so great.

I'm definitely recommending it.

To those who do have it: You are gonna love the ending.

I was pretty goddamn surprised at what Rockstar did with it.

The shooting is hella fun, I only just got it tonight. Did the intro, then annihilated everyone at the ranch for ****s and giggles, was hilarious.

I really like the music, it's got a whole minimalist 'Sergio Leone' film feel about it. I wish though the guns had that same old school western sound about them like in those films, that would make it the complete package :D

The ricochet sounds are exactly like the old movies' sounds. You'll hear em eventually.

And don't forget the Wilhelm scream.

I went ahead and bought it rather than wait, was at gamestop anyway. Glad to see I can save now in places other than a bed but it still would be better if I could do it at any time. And the horse is gonna take some getting used to.

I got completely donked on the river in a hand of poker, so I promptly stood up and shot the bastard who did it. Now for some reason i can cheat at poker :D
