Red Dead Redemption - anyone playing ?

[Mark TKO]

Dunno. Monthly at most I think.

Guess you’re planning on exploiting it once you get the game then....

Hell ya I’m not a good gamer always get killed. Don’t have enough time to devote to it so anything that gives me a leg up I’m doing

I was strong, got the gold bar but didn't cheat

What can you do with the gold, buy guns and supplies?

I played it for a few hours more yesterday. Certainly after Spiderman it is a serious slowdown, but I am enjoying it. I am only going to play on weekends though as it seems like you need a few hours to soak it up properly each time. I don't see any need to cheat so far. I play honorably and find that I have money in my pocket. I tend to loot and work a lot though. I pretend that I really am in that world and that's the magic of a good game. You are the anti-hero and I enjoy that.

[Mark TKO]

I don't actually like the character we are playing either - not sure you are supposed to.

Agreed Miles, you need at least a two hour sitting each time you play it to get anywhere or appreciate

Nope but Fallout 76 comes out the 15th. The first Red Dead was the most open ended free roaming game I've seen. Perfect game experience after making a few clouds

Unfortunately I walked into a major spoiler about the story line elsewhere so I'll just be shutting up until I play it.

Just brought it, haven't played yet. Will give my thoughts over the next few days. Really looking forward to it.

Alight, you guys got me, I’m buying it Monday

[Spicoli]

If the drinking catches up might buy it later. Special edition is about $100 . Games are worse than ppv now. Looking forward to being ripped off the horse by random mountain lions and torn apart.

Don't spend that, Spic. Just a regular edition is good enough. It's a good game and looks really beautiful. GTA is all well and good, but there is nothing more ugly than a modern city. You cannot even see the stars in a modern city. A total mess of concrete and chaos and then you play as Trevor and inevitably you long for the good old days when you could just shoot a person and not have helicopters on your trail. Cars what are they all about? Awful. Yep, I like RDR.

[walrus]

So does it make much different on the edition. I was just gonna get the regular one for 60 bucks. I have no idea what the add ons are at a higher level it should I say higher price

Sitting here having trouble with the Microsoft set up unable to purchase . This location has lagged lately as far as connection, the initial xbox install and Fallout 4 took a full 5 days! This is why guys in their 40's shouldn't be playing video games .
