Haven't played a better game since this.

This game was amazing but Rockstar took it to the next level with GTA V IMO.

So is multiplayer working? Guessing there will be a few on?

Been trying to buy this all day and keep getting a oops something has happened error message.

has it aged well?

McBain · 8 Jul 2016 at 22:36

wtf, multiplayer progress is saved locally :/ That's a level 40 out of the window then.

Game has aged pretty well considering it's 6 years old.

Got your old machine?

Upload it to the cloud then it should be on your one.

Surprisingly, yes.

Art style and use of lighting make it so.

Unfortunately not

I'm not that fussed, doubt I will play multiplayer anyway just fancied a quick blast for nostalgia.

Played a few hours last night, all came flooding back about how fantastic this game is. Cannot wait to see what they do with RDR2.

Edit: Oh, and good news for those wondering whether BC would run better

Given the hype around this entering BC, it makes you wonder how successful "Remastered Edition" type release would have been.

What the heck, I have £7 abox credit due to MS making a mistake and giving me some credit on my account, went to buy Red Dead with it, but you can't use MS credit on xbox.com to buy 360 games, you need to use an xbox 360. Erm yeah I don't have an xbox 360, wow MS - you really are the most useless company at organizing your own stores and how to spend our own money at times..

Oh well rant over. But was a bit annoying to find this out.

I also tried on xbox one, tells me account balances cannot be used for these type of purchases. Wow, just wow.

Raymond Lin · 9 Jul 2016 at 13:39

I've bought it, will get round to it after a million other games I've still got to play lol

Principle now mate lol I have credit, I should be able to spend it however I like.

Found a copy for my PS3 but means I have to hook the PS3 back up again, being lazy lol

NooBish AbbZ · 9 Jul 2016 at 16:52

while i agree that GAME are useless....supply and demand..?

I bought mine for £6 digitally so i'm happy

TehBluebear · 9 Jul 2016 at 17:18

God, I loved this game. Dearly want it on PS4 classics.

"Bill, I implore you, think about this"
"You implore me? You IMPLORE ME? You always were one for fancy words. Well I implores you to go back and tell them to send someone just a little more impressive next time"

GTanny · 10 Jul 2016 at 10:57

So tempted to pick this up and play it on my daughters ps3 I've never played it and know I'm missing out on a potentially great game

I can literally read that in bills voice pitch perfect from that cutscene even his sarcasm "well I 'implores' you..."

I really might have to fire this up again! On my 360

Rexxar · 10 Jul 2016 at 14:23

Is this still going in a big way? I found it really gated feeling and lost interest fairly quick. Is it any better now with updates?

Plainsong · 10 Jul 2016 at 16:20

I noticed too that all the packs except UN are free if you're a Live subscriber. Think there are 5 of them.
