anonymo May 11, 2010 Share anonymo Member May 11, 2010 So I don't really play vidya games much anymore but I've been excited about RDR for a looooong time, planning on picking it up next week, anyone else? Which console should I get it for? I'm leaning towards the PS3 just because my 360 could crap out at anytime (haven't turned it on since Christmas) and I would need a wi-fi adapter to get it online.

boiler May 11, 2010 Share boiler Member May 11, 2010 I am strongly considering getting it (if I can tear myself away from DA:O). Probably would be for 360 though, I haven't really played it in a while and need to give it some love. Are there co-op opportunities or something? If I wouldn't be playing it with anyone then I probably won't stress over which system to get it for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know actually, I haven't seen anything about it...just the online portions which I'm not totally interested in. I know there's 16 player free roam so it might be like GTA:IV was, which isn't a bad thing I don't think. btw the map is apparently 4 times the size of GTA:IV and twice the size of GTA:SA...and there's a possibility you will be able to lasso bears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiffy May 12, 2010 Share Jiffy Member May 12, 2010 I am kinda intrigued. I would def get it on the ps3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiler May 13, 2010 Share boiler Member May 13, 2010 I'm waiting for final reviews to come in to decide which system I will get it for. If it runs (and looks) better on 360, then I'm going that route. All things equal, I might go with PS3, especially if more community folks are leaning that way too.

boiler May 17, 2010 Share boiler Member May 17, 2010 Reviews are out! Apparently it's awesome. I'll be picking it up tomorrow at lunch. Still not sure if I'll be getting it for PS3 or 360... kinda leaning towards xbox right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VooDooPC May 17, 2010 Share VooDooPC Member May 17, 2010 Max Payne 3 is supposed to come out this year and uses the same engine as GTA IV. If it runs like GTA IV I'm going to be angry as a bee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiler May 18, 2010 Share boiler Member May 18, 2010 Just decided I'm getting this for PS3. I'm going to miss achievements, but if the multiplayer free-roam is half as good as the reviews are indicating, I would regret not getting it on the system that others I know are choosing. I like my 360 controller better, but I can cope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unclean May 18, 2010 Share Unclean Member May 18, 2010 The PS3 has something called "trophies" for a lot of games, just like "achievements" for the 360. Did you read something about no trophies in RDR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I know all about trophies. The problem is I had a slight addiction to the gamerscore thing, and trophies just don't quite fill the void. I know it's stupid, but I'll get over it. I 1000'd Mass Effect 2 and haven't touched my 360 after that, so I was looking to hop back on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymo May 18, 2010 Author Share anonymo Member May 18, 2010 Ugh...worst thing about buying it at lunch is having to work a few more hours before getting to play it... I'll be playing with my my cousin mostly this week so I doubt I'll get much mp in, maybe some this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller May 18, 2010 Share Leveller Member May 18, 2010 Should have it waiting for me at home when I'm done with work, however, my mother-in-law is staying with us this week, so I don't think I'll get much play time before Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiffy May 18, 2010 Share Jiffy Member May 18, 2010 I bought it at lunch, too... I will be on a for a few hours, and then finishing a paper :-(. ps3, mr_jiffeh, add and play. we need a GC posse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiffy May 19, 2010 Share Jiffy Member May 19, 2010 initial review = fun. I saw jackie in game, posse up in multiplayer! i'm only an hour into the SP, but thus far it seems very promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiler May 19, 2010 Share boiler Member May 19, 2010 Got a few hours in yesterday, very fun so far. I would be down for a GC posse at some point, although will have to arrange a headset of some kind. Haven't played online with my PS3 at all yet. boiler_12 is my, um, gamertag? what does sony call it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
