Howdy Partner. I gotta acknowledge the corn my friend, I half expected a lick and a promise from this here bulletin board posting cuz you had some big nuts to crack. But I dun heard yer an honorable man from my dealings with the townsfolk out West and let me tell you those grangers and gringos were right bout you. I now see with me own eyes you bucked-to and got yerself the bettermost OP this cowboy has seen in a good long time. Im gon tell my posse and any saddle bum I come across that you sir, are a gentleman of the first water.

 

[madmook]

Getting both PS3 and 360 versions, just for fuckyeah-ness.

 

[Majine]

I heard some people suspecting the PS3 version might be inferior a couple of days ago, any news on that front?

It's not like I have a choice, but could be good to know nontheless.

 

[Srider]

Grrrr, I have to wait an extra 5 days or so for shipping to Japan.

It is at moments like this I wish I still lived in the US.

Can't wait to be to shooting up some cowboys!

 

[Hawkie]

Fantastic job OP.

 

[owlbeak]

Anyone know anything about how detailed the multiplayer character customization is? I'm trying to figure out if it's like GTAIV where you can choose different hats, shirts, pants, etc. or if you just have the option of picking different character models. I can't seem to find any info on this!

Can't wait for Tuesday!!

 

[TheThunder]

Midnight Club allowed a custom control scheme, so we'll see...

I really hope so or it's gonna suck otherwise.

 

[Pooya]

Great thread.
Is there any snowy area in this game?

 

[Frostburn]

Great OP!

My hype level for this game is huge, I'm glad they delayed the game to get it right. Can't wait to roam around on horseback with a posse to take out gang and level up in between competitive multiplayer matches.

My expectation is a similar divide compared to GTAIV on PS360.

A reviewer from an Australian magazine posted in the screenshots thread that it "played fine" on the PS3, so there are no major issues at least, but he had nothing to compare to.

Combined with the improved performance of TBoGT on the PS3 leaves people hopeful and curious.

 

[Shanlei91]

Why do these companies insist on releasing games I want all around the same time!?

I'm debating whether or not to get this game, have Lost Planet 2 and 3D Dot Heroes shipping to me as well as Modnation Racers later in the month. =/

 

[OriginalThinking]

This is probably my most anticipated game for a few years, absolute day one purchase. Maybe I missed it in the op, but has the soundtrack composer been confirmed yet? Anyway think I'm going to play in expert from the beginning, no auto aim should make head shots and horseback takedowns all the more rewarding!

No word on the ps3 version other than some sidebar comments from the Cheep Ass Gamer admin.

Not so much as a screenshot of the ps3 version that I know of. It doesn't sit well with me but same as you I don't have a choice in the matter. I really don't expect any major debilitating bugs but we'll just have to wait and see. :/

 

[Brainboy]

Nice OP! I only really discovered this game a few weeks ago (no idea how it passed me by), but now I'm super excited.

 

[Rapping Granny]

Fucking A, can't believe it's almost here.

Now I need to find some money to buy this.

 

[Ward]

has the soundtrack composer been confirmed yet?

Bill Elm of Friends of Dean Martinez and Woody Jackson

 

[Cant0na]

sorry i havent been paying too much attention

but is the story mode playable in co-op?

 

[OriginalThinking]

Bill Elm of Friends of Dean Martinez and Woody Jackson

Pretty cool, though I'll admit I was hoping for Morricone. Games going to be great regardless.

 

[Always-honest]

But thats the thing, I have those and I still prefer the L1/R1 over the the triggers. I just really hope you can change that.

to be honest.. i prefer them to on the sixaxis. Al though the triggers work well, they're still no 360 triggers (i prefer them for shooters over the sixaxis). and the position isn't all that. i do prefer them for driving games though.

anyway, custom button layout is a must

 

[Lemonz]

Supposedly there's a PC version coming down the line, isn't there?

Maybe a timed release?

 

[Ward]

sorry i havent been paying too much attention

The main story is not co-op.

The only co-op will be the six missions released in June for 2-4 players.

"Drink up, you fuckin' heathens. To the greatest OP in the fuckin' land."
"I agree, boss!"
"Shut the fuck up, Johnny. Although I do think you are spot on, Al."
"Can we just drink already? I gotta get home."
"You bet your ass you do, Sheriff."

 

[SILVO]

Those bastards at Rockstar... this game would make the perfect MMO, and yet we'll never see it happen. As good as this'll be, it'll always be a bit of a tease to me.

 

[RebornYeti]

Damn, nice OP! Before I ventured into this thread and read the OP, I really didnt care for RDR. Now its definitely a day one purchase.

 

[Alucrid]

Just finished watching Yojimbo and it's got me hyped x10000 for this shit.

 

[DrBo42]

So pumped. 3 more days! (If stars align)

Edit: Also I just watched The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly last night for the first time. So good. Now I'm about to watch Unforgiven for the first time.

 

[Robot 492]

.

 

[Murmur]

Great official thread! So pumped for this. Looking forward to moseying around with my posse.

 

[Coldsnap]

I just pre ordered from amazon, hard to say no to a $20.00 gift card

 

[red shoe paul]

Nasty thread right hurr! Getting excited each and everyday!

 

[Goldrusher]

Maybe a timed release?

That's a bit of advertising for the tv. It says "PC input".

 

[Alucrid]

What are some good westerners available for Netflix online streaming?

 

[Nista]

Excellent thread, Goldrusher! Makes me excited to see the game hit shelves in a week.

Time to preorder a couple copies for me and my friends.

 

[Square Triangle]

Amazing OP, one week away!!

 

[DrBo42]

What are some good westerners available for Netflix online streaming?

Can't imagine there are a lot, if any. Lemme go look.

 

[Goreomedy]

Damn fine OP.

[Yeef]

I'll be rolling with the PS3 posse on day one.

 

[Pooya]

Great thread!


Yes!
*pic*

nice, I hope there are snow storm and blizzard too , I loved the rain effect in GTAIV.

 

[KaYotiX]

WOW!!! Nice OP man!!

This game is going to be awesome!!!

 

[Neuromancer]

I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (wanted!)
Dead or alive

 

[Tom Penny]

This game better be able to hold a candle the greatest game of all time. GTA IV.

 

[DrBo42]

The Proposition is on instant queue, and according to the OP it was part of their inspiration. So I'd say go for that. None of the classics I know of are available.

 

[evilromero]

I'm very excited about this and actually didn't track the game until just a few days ago when I saw an ad on rotten tomatoes. Why would they embargo review scores until release though? Wouldn't they want the good word-of-mouth to get around prior to release?

This game better be able to hold a candle the greatest game of all time. GTA IV.

Wait. Please tell me this game is nothing like GTAIV. It's nothing like GTAIV right? None of those little missions and such?

 

[Alucrid]

The Proposition is on instant queue, and according to the OP it was part of their inspiration. So I'd say go for that. None of the classics I know of are available.

Thanks, I'll go ahead and stream it now. Suck that none of the classics are on there though. :\

Damn fine OP.

Thanks, I'll probably look at this when I go ahead and get some in the mail.

Excellent choices man

This Free Roam formula is way better than a normal MMO. Plus you dont have to pay a monthly service fee!

 

[speculawyer]

Beautiful OP.

You should add the Houser quote about the the bear in there . . .

"Sometimes you can be the hero, sometimes you can be the bad guy, and sometimes while you're deciding what to do, a bear comes out of nowhere and eats someone."

 

[Denzar]

Nice job on the OP, Goldrusher.

*tips cowboy hat*

 

[BurritoBushido]

Awesome work! i am so pumped for this game

 

[Salz01]

Does anybody know if the game comes with a fold out map like GTA had?
