With the DLC you get with the Limited Edition, can I change the golden guns and costume whenever I want?

Seriously, too much information on this page.
It's exactly how the game was spoiled for me.

I also got it spoiled, not sure where. Saw to late the big SPOILER warning below the post.Dead Man said:
not that i know of. Unless somebody signed in my account. But nobody i know has played RDR so does not know the ending. I always use spoiler tags. Please show post of said post? I know i didnt but curious. I would never do such a fucking dumb thing especially since i want people to enjoy the game as much as i did. In fact i have not even gone into the thread you have said i posted in.
The text was spoilered, but people thought it was a Vanquish spoiler, or a joke.Aspiring said:

I feel your pain. I attempted this one last night too but at Macfarlane's Ranch..started off with me and some other low level dude...he ended up leaving, so I figured I was golden. At about a $800 bounty, a six man posse shows up, but they end up farming Soloman's Folly. As soon as I hit Public Enemy, I had this inkling that something was gunna fuck me up..and lo and behold, at the 9 minute mark, they all come charging in
People are misunderstanding that post, I'm sure it's my fault for not wording it better. I meant you wouldn't like RDR if you don't like GTA because of the game design, because it is exactly the same, there are loads of reasons to like RDR and not GTA, but design is not one of them.Foxtastical said:
And yeah Aspiring, you spoiled it for me, asshat.
Foxtastical said:
I hated GTA also and probably played through 15% of the game. Red Dead I loved and couldn't get enough.
I think a lot of it had to do with the layout of the world. In GTA it was a pain traveling. Your in a crowded city, having to deal with traffic, having to deal with slowing down to turn, wrecking your car, getting another car, etc.. Then there was the whole starting the entire mission over if you die, etc...
In Red Dead it's so wide open, your constantly going full speed with the horse and not having to worry about traffic, breaking to turn, there are constant straightaways, and when you veer off the road your don't crash into a building.

Shit dude i am so sorry. I know dont what to say. I read through and some realised i fucked up others were pissed, and with good reason. I didnt edit it because i honestly did not realise, and due to time differences i probably posted it just before my bedtime or work, so could not edit. I cant believe i did such a fucking stupid thing. I am so ashamed and angry at myself for such a dumb thing. I am truly sorry.

I was so pissed when you spoiled it for me I dipped a bag full of puppies in battery acid.
j/k You didn't spoil it for me.
No problem man, I was joking calling you an asshat, it was still spoiler tagged, no one had to look at it as someone brought up in the thread. I was pissed at the time but now I'mAspiring said:
back with John's family
I'm up to like 98.6%, with only Blackwater Poker/Game of Poker to win for the outfit and to beat the minigame once. I'm guessing the rest of it will be a few bounty missions, although I feel like I've done a ton of them in different locations.
I suck at Poker, have no idea how to play, so I tried to do the strategy someone mentioned on here about getting caught cheating and dueling people til there was only one guy left, but every time I duel and win the table glitches out and the guys will be sitting like 10 feet from it and the prompt will ask me to play, but when I hit B I can't sit down. Sometimes they just get up and leave the table entirely. :lol I've tried just disarming in the duel as well and the same thing happens.
Winning 5 Finger Fillet at Torquemeda was a pain as well, took me like an hour. :lol

If the don't raise after the flop (the first three cards), raise a little bit. They will either fold or call. If you have a decent hand, go all in. They will fold unless they have a full house or better most of the time.Ramirez said:I'm up to like 98.6%, with only Blackwater Poker/Game of Poker to win for the outfit and to beat the minigame once.

I came up with a surefire (for me last night anyway) way of winning the high stakes poker.
First make a strong opening bet, like 250 or something. This is low enough to get most of the table to go in on the bet. For the next fround of betting go all in with the rest of your chips (or at least 700 if you have more than 1000). This will most likely scare off all the other players and make them fold, giving you ~1000 chips that they bet in the first round. Rinse and repeat!
I did this last night and won the high-stakes poker game in about 5 mins. Good luck man.
Also, if anyone is looking for skunks still, I found 12 in El Presido last night. I had spent about 3 hours looking for these fuckers and then I found a dozen within a minute of each other. Crazy.
All I have to do tonight for my 100% is two more bounties in Mexico and do all 5 American hideouts in 24 hours. It is easily the best requirements for 100% in a R* game, usually I get to around 80 and give up. I love how in RDR the requirements are definitely posible - it might take some time but you can do it easily. In GTA killing those stupid pigeons (I missed 1 - fuuuuuuuck!!) and doing the dumbass jumps is so hard because you have no clues on where to find them. In RDR it's much more apparent and therefore satisfying (IMO).

Ending was disappointing. First of all,
So that is retarded, and I wish someone told me that I should've made a save file before
I hate points of no return. They exist in both Mass Effect games and exist right before the ranch in this game. I wanted to get my 100% with JOHN Marston, wearing the outfit that I preferred. Instead, I get stuck in the rancher's outfit and now I'm stuck with a goatee goon and no more John.
So that is retarded, and I wish someone told me that I should've made a save file before
all the ranch missions.

I love this game. Absolutely love it. My only complaint is that I can't play the mini-games in multiplayer (my only complaint in GTA 4's "posse" mode as well).
Anyway, I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this. I was traving around on my horse along the train tracks of Blackwater, and in the distance, 20 buffalo dropped from the sky. It just rained them down to the ground. It's like they spawned too high in the air or something. I managed to kill them all with my rifle, then I went to town and people started raining out of the sky.
As weird as that was, I decided to go hunt some more animals. Shot a bird, took it's feathers but the camera was glitched under the ground. When it came back up, John was half buried in the ground, then it rocketed him out of it (not too far out) but it was quite funny.

Just finished the game yesterday. So good... Possible GOTG (Uncharted 2 and Fallout 3 are the other contestants) for me. It's a pity now i'll have to go for the 100%
. Only disappointment I have with the game is the multiplayer, which from what I experienced is a complete mess. I'll have to play a bit more to make up my mind about it.
I still haven't completed the kill all species of animals trophy, but I've killed pretty much everything I ever saw moving, including those rare animals for the Legend of the West outfit. Do pigs and town dogs also count? I haven't killed those yet.
playing as Jack, who looks and sounds sucky even with the legend of the west outfit, but whatever

I had a glitch where all the wagons would jump up and down constantly. I was also attempting to complete the Mexican Wagon Robbery mission during this session but because of this glitch could never actually commandeer the wagons. On one attempt, one wagon flew straight up into the air causing me to automatically fail because it 'got away'. Restarting the 360 solved the problem.DryvBy2 said:

Few notes from last night.
1. Don't lasso the town dog, everyone goes ballistic and kills you.
2. After they killed me from the dog lasso-ing (in Mexico), I respawned back on the American side, WTF?
3. They should have put the map on select and moved that menu to the start menu. Fast travel should also be on the map, not just text, who memorizes all the town names and where they are relative to each other?
4. My horse, the one from Bonnie, walked off a cliff in front of me and died. I had that horse for 25+ story missions. Why did it suicide, what did I do wrong?

*ENDING SPOILERS* So, I assume Rockstar
recorded all the Stranger mission dialogue with Jack Marston so I'll still be able to finish them after completing the main storyline?

Spoilers: (reveal one at a time)Great ending and a great way to let you continue and 100% the thing. If you really really want to play with John, read on:
YOU CAN'T, HE'S DEAD.
It's in line with one of the game's major themes: life isn't fair.
They seriously better give us a prequel or something. John Marston was one awesome character.

I feel that GTA: San Andreas is the most overrated game I've ever played. Plays like ass covered in toothpaste and has the game design credentials of a shaved water buffalo. But it has a really big world, so that impresses people. It's like a 5-year old who wrote a 100-page doctoral thesis in crayon.
RDR is certainly a better game than SA. Much more polished overall. I don't feel like it deserves all the praise it's been getting, it has its fair share of flaws to be sure, but it's a million times better than SA.

So what do you guys think is next for Rockstar San Diego, anyway? I would love something with the same formula but set in Medieval times or based on Pirates or something else period-based.Haunted said:

Omg the "How the West was Won" achievement is pissing me off. Only level 34 and I am growing tired of farming Twin Rocks. It's my last achievement too.
Though I am beginning to wonder if getting all my achievement points really matters. I have no real way of showing my score to you GAFers.

2 questions:
1. Is the Hungarian Half-bred better than my trusty Kentucky Sadler?
2. Im trying to get the reyes outfit and im only missing purchasing from the store at Escalera but its not there... Do i have to get past a certain point in the story to be able to do so?
Thanks!

1) The Half-bred is the strongest, but slowest out of the top 3. The Sadler is in the middle of the top 3. I prefer the Half-bred myself.
2) Yup, it'll be available later. Edit: It'll be purchasable after you finish the mission named
