Red Dead Redemption Thread

Came home to find a package laying on my bed :D

so far so good, graphics are fairly impressive, havent really played it much atm
off to play some more!
 
3.30pm and mine is STILL "despatching soon"" **** that :mad: First and last time doing a preorder with amazon...

Will just have to run around the shops tomorrow for the cheapest version...
Did you do super saver you thrifty git? :p
 
Did you do super saver you thrifty git? :p


ofc :p why? coz all those other online retailers will get it to you on release day without paying extra for postage so why should i have to pay amazon to do what all these other places do for free?

Or did everyone pay extra postage to get it delivered tomorrow? :confused:
 
Can someone confirm whether horses will jump off a cliff with the rider and collapse in rag doll goodness ?

Sorry, a bit of a strange one but i would like to know.
 
Looking at the LE version compared to the normal one. Im definitely going for the normal version, I don't want to have a better horse straight away or increased dead eye etc.

It kind of defeats the object of scouring the landscape for that gem of a horse.

I'm not even sure the le content can be obtained normally in single player. If someone could confirm I might just get the normal version.
 
Limited Edition simply makes this stuff available for unlocking in single player, if you don't have the code it's just not there for unlocking as far as I understood it.

I paid for the 1st class delivery option, which is only £1.69, I've done that with my last few pre-orders and got it the day before release. I might add that even with extra for the shipping, it still worked out cheaper than another retailer I usually use for games which does do free delivery.

What you are paying for over 'Super Saver' delivery is the turn around at which they dispatch items. If you read the print during the stage where you pick the shipping, the free delivery is always a much longer estimated arrival date because they don't prioritize it.
 
Well mine came this afternoon,from the jersey place :)
Played about an hour not noticed any frame rate issues on ps3 seems better gfx than gta4 anyway and the game is cool so far.
Killed my horse twice already but that was just noob mistakes and getting used to it going full pelt + missing a bridge+down a ravine = dogfood.

Watch out for wolves as well.
They ate mine!

Though it seems you just whistle and a new one comes.
I'm not sure what the deal is, whether you just get a standard one back, which is what you start out with. Or if you've paid a fortune for a really good horse, is it dead for good if it gets killed?
 
My LE has finally dispatched, fingers crossed for tomorrow, never had a problem before.

Is anyone playing the PS3 version feeling it looks crap, or is it, as I predict, absolutely fine and unnoticeable unless the 360 version was playing next to it?

You may want to edit out your competitor mention.

Only warning you because I appear to have fallen foul of the ridiculously blurry competitor rule myself.
