Red Dead Redemption

[sbugir]

Has anyone seen the trailers for this game? They are beautiful. I decided to pick it up, and my God it is by far one of the better games I have every played.

Trailers:

It's an open-sandbox style game where you can practically do whatever you want. There is an economic and ecological system and it is pretty freakin cool. You can hunt and skin animals to earn money, buck horses, do good deeds (ie retrieving stolen horses, saving people from bandits or wild animals, etc.), and what I find truly amazing is that animals up higher on the food chain, such as cougars, will attack rabbits and raccoons. Very cool.

The game utilizes the Euphoria (pretty much makes NPCs able to whatever they want) game engine which was first seen in Grand Theft Auto 4... and it has been refined so much in this game. NPCs actually do whatever they want... I saw a guy commit suicide right in front of me for no reason... A pack of wolves went into town and started mauling drunk citizens. It's so awesome.

Does anyone else have this game? If you do, are you enjoying it?

If you don't have it, I totally recommend you lay the $60 and purchase this game. You will have loads of fun... The story takes from 20-40 hours to complete, and then there are side missions, challenges, and much more to reach 100% completion. You'll be playing this game for a while .

Trailers:

I prefer the Halo series. Halo Beta was fun.

I love Halo too, but this and that are two totally different genres.

 

[MantidLord]

I've been looking at this game before it came out, yet another one added to the list.

true. I'm not into big videogames that take 40 hours to complete. I dont play videogames that much but when i do its either halo or sf4

 

[sbugir]

Street Fighter 4 is beast

 

[dr walkrr]

If you are loving RDR you should check out Fallout 3, it is a first person shooter so the view is a little different but it is the same open sand box world with hundreds of hours of things to do. Also, it has a VATS targeting system that is kind of similar to RDR. Very awesome.

Own it... with all 5 DLC packs haha. Great game, wish there was MP though.

Trust me Yeatzee... I was the same way. Then I realized I hadn't bought a single game in 2010... This is easily one of the better investments I've made this year haha . I still want to get BFBC2, but reviewers are saying the multiplayer is great, but way too glitchy. Hopefully they'll patch that. Until then, it's RDR, Halo 3, and MW2...

Well I just bought a Pentax 50mm F/1.2 lens (ask kamakiri, im sure he knows how awesome that is)so im out of my money for a while. I'll stick to what im good at for now, CODMW2. My K.D. is about 1.90

(We need to play again dude)

Sure, but CoD4 is waaaay better.

 

[yeatzee]

Disagree....

 

[sbugir]

Disagree....

How is MoD2 better? I mean, the perks are stupid,- ie commando, one man army w/ danger close and tube, marathon with lightweight -, people camp for 25 kills and scream like btches when they don't get a nuke. Worst of all, there is only one bolt-action sniper rifle.

In Black Ops there will be no commando or nuke ... but it's by Treyarch <_<

 

[idolomantis]

10 more buck and I've got it. I always loved the western genre.

Well COD4 had its own problems too my friend. Tubing was way worse in that game, helicopters were grossly overpowered, couldn't control where your airstrike came from resulting in massive Team killing, etc. etc.

Commando is gay I'll give you that, but only in regular. In HC its useless. 1 man army/tubes is also gay, but its not hard to kill people with it. Just get close. I mute everyone when i play either game so.... And yes I do agree with the bolded... stupidest decision they could have made. Despite this, me and my silenced intervention will carry on owning nubes!

Whats black ops?

Tubes were not way worse... You could only have 1 attachment and the first perk would be taken away, far more balanced , plus you couldn't refill ammo. I will agree that the airstrikes sucked, helis aren't as over powered as pavelows or choppers -.-. They are both good as well as bad... The camping is just ridiculous in MW2, and it was made that way because of the stupid killstreaks.

Anyway, Black Ops is the next CoD.

@Idolo, you'll love it mate .

 

[idolomantis]

Probably will yeah, this year I'll be getiing Black ops and AC brotherhood for sure. And I'm counting the days before gears 3 releases.

 

[sbugir]

If Black Ops is better than MoD2... Fersure. AC Brotherhood looks like a ripoff of AC2. I honestly don't know how they'll make it a full length game. Gears 3 will probably be the greatest shooter ever .

I want Fable 3 and Fallout New Vegas
