    Game looks so badass. Thinking about picking it up this evening.

    FWIW, Fry's has it for $49.99 and BB will price match.

    I didn't realize there was a first :rofl:
    I'm okay with that. I'd prefer to wait over paying retail. ;)

    This game is badass. I haven't played much of the single player yet, but I've played a few hours of the free roam online with a few friends.

    Gonna wait to play it before purchase... I'm not a huge fan of GTA, and this seems to be GTA, old west style. These types of games are fun, but once you get over the "hey, I can go anywhere and do anything" and just realize its a game that never ends... it grows tiresome (for me anyways). Also, I wish that everyone in your party while doing a co-op mission got credit for completed missions, rather than just the host. I don't mind helping people get achievements.. but playing a game for 3 hours and getting no credit for it pisses me off....

    Played it for about an hour last night. The intro is intriguing and I think the storyline stands a good chance at being really quite interesting. Then again, I love Westerns so maybe that's just me. I am really hoping they pay homage to Ennio Moricone with their score throughout the game.

    You want to set it up? I haven't even tried multiplayer yet. Maybe need a more creative name for multiplayer tho. :)

    Yeah it was really good. Definitely nothing like it at the time it came out.
     
  17. Definitely a fun game to watch the hubby play! Especially when he put a hogtied horse thief on the RR tracks. I really didn't think anything would happen when the train came....... :eek2::eek4:

    Are you on PS3 or 360? I have it installed on my 360 and haven't had any issues with the sound. Now getting kicked out of free roam games is another matter. :grr:

    Are you getting Audio now?

    I went out and bought it the other day. Only played for a few minutes so far.

    yes. no issues at all. It's almost as if my console knew the copy wasn't mine. I didn't change anything, install/download anything, etc...

    So how is the multiplayer? Is it a MMO type multiplayer or are you just playing with your XBL/PSN friends?
