Red Dead Redemption

 Been playing through this awesome game for the last week! It's basically a wanabee-cowboy's dream, where you can herd cattle, lasso and break in horses, rob people and coaches, take out gangs or become part of one yourself, help or fight lawmen, go hunting deer or bear or rabbits or even racoons, and take part in the mexican revolution!!

It really is great and has a pretty good multi-player too where before starting a proper deathmatch, up to 16 players can roam around the whole game map doing whatever the heck the want. When you do start a proper shootout match, everybody stands facing each other in a mexican standoff for bonus points before the actual match starts!

It's got a great storyline in single player too, with a few twists and turns along the way. Basically, it's all Grand Theft Horse! Highly recommend it to all PS3 and Xbox 360 owners, and PC when it eventually comes out....

Now feel free to ask questions about it or what to do in a certain bit, as I've currently played it for 6 whole days and I've 92 percent completed it..

 Let's Go, Mr Driver!

Re: Red Dead Redemption

It's been highly praised on RP but more for the single player than anything else so I'll probably wait until the price drops

The game is awesome...definitely the best Cowboy sim ever. There's loads to do even after you complete the main story missions, although I will say that some of the random events become a bit samey very quickly....still, you can go hunting or robbing endlessly too! Uses the same engine as GTA and plays similar in some respects, but is wildly different in others

Definitely at least try it...I don't think you'll be disappointed...

 Will get this when it is sub-£20. Still toying with the idea of Metro 2033 at the moment - seen in for £17.99 now.....
