Curiosity is killing me now.

On a more related note, these next six days are going to go by so slow.

People who haven't seen many westerns who want to get into a good one:

Watch the recent 3:10 to Yuma release with Russel Crowe and Christian Bale on Blu-Ray.

(if someone has already said this I'm sorry I didn't go back through the entire thread)

Not only is it a pretty good movie, and a Western, it's one of the best Blu-Rays you can watch as far as audio and video fidelity are concerned.

He said that the game has been delayed to may 28th...

Afterwards, he edited...

It will not get delayed again.

Also, I liked 3:10 to Yuma. Luke Wilson's crowning achievement can be found in that movie. :lol

Wait... you mean you don't have a shoulder mounted nuclear dick cannon?!? :lol

It'll sell in Europe I'm sure. You could make an argument that 50% of the world's greatest westerns were filmed in Europe or by European directors.

Matter of fact, the Lumiere brothers always wanted to shoot a western. You can tell. Their first film: a TRAIN coming down the track. Total suckers for Louis L'Amour too*.

This particular factoid is fabricated, but sounds good, owing to the French name.

Thanks. A quick search netted me the post he was probably talking about.

The only thing I've found that corresponds is that Gamestop Finland is now listing the limited edition version of the game for a May 28th release.

The post he referenced on another forum is rather flimsy. "An email at work"... "no sources".

I think I'll have to group that rumor with CheapyD's source.

Wow. I know it's not going to happen, but what if this game was delayed again? Would I be a bitter man?

Yeah, I edited it because there was nothing to be found online. The post was made by a straight up guy who doesn't usually make stuff up, but as nothing was found it seemed sensible to edit it.

Hah! What's with old people and their email? I saw one the other day that said "Lesbian Elena Kagan to be appointed to Supreme Court." Heh, wow. First I've heard of it. The next day I read like a two-page article about her in the newspaper that never mentioned "lesbian."

So, I heard from a guy what knows a guy who sez "Look for cameos by Brucie, Niko, and Gay Tony in Red Dead Redemption."*

*Total Freaking Lie

I heard some places overseas are delayed to the 28th due to the Ash Cloud, not sure how true that could be given the source.


* cough * gamefaqs

if US is delayed then I will cry in the fetal position all day Tuesday. I'm from Kentucky so I already have my 10 gallon hat, my boots, my moo cow and my tobacco with a jug of moonshine.

The wrongheaded-ness of this statement astounds me. Hey, Pachtie, they're called 'spaghetti' westerns because their fucking ITALIAN. And that's just the tip of the international interest iceberg for westerns. Sweet Jesus, that guy is amazing in the bullshit that spews from his mouth sometimes.

FUCK! Just saw the new date on Webhallen.se aswell. Seems like it might be kind of official. Just to cross the fingers and hope for the best.

That sucks so fucking much really.

For fellow GAFfers in the UK.

Channel 5 this Sunday evening (16th May).

Young Guns II = 18:55 - 21:00
3:10 to Yuma = 21:00 - 23:25

I expect to see RDR advertised heavily through both time slots :D

Wouldn't surprise me if the game is delayed an extra week one week before it's original release date. I've followed loads of R* games in the past and they are pretty much always delayed by an extra week or so for whatever reason, usually something to do with logistics. Personally though I think it's just R* squeezing the hype.

From Rockstars Twitter:
@JotaErreOne Red Dead Redemption releases for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on May 18th in North America and May 21st in Europe and Australia
34 minutes ago via web

Wouldn't they say anything about any kind of delay, even if it's only for Nordic countries? And according to some people on another forum, the game is allready shipped here. Take that with a grain of salt though.

Damn. I know I said I would wait for some GAF feedback, but I will be buying this day 1, who am I kidding? This is the last time though, R*, you hear that? If you break my heart again you will be off the day 1 list, and onto the pay no mind list.

No one else is having any trouble getting their games on shelves. Skate 3 is on it's way to me. Why should be this any different? Worried about a early leak? Not to speculate, but fuck the inevitable.

I'm luke warm about this as it is. :/

I also remember that gamestop had some delayed games back in April because of the Volcanic ashes, but all other stores sold the games.. so maybe it´s just Gamestop in these countries that are going by the "better safe than sorry" method..

As for the volcano, you guys can check this thread for updates. There's been an earthquake swarm happening(which are usually signs that more eruptions are coming) so this could a contingency plan for R* in-case it does blow.

Ok, I'm confused thanks to you people.

Has it been delayed or not?

And if so, which areas of the world is it delayed?
