Red Dead Redemption 2

Well that looks pretty good, but why is there a voice over and who mixed the sound? Awful.

Can't wait

It's all well and good saying your decisions will determine how honorable the protagonist is, but with this being a R* game, you just know full well the missions will have you doing some absolutely horrible gooseberry fool, and then fail to acknowledge it completely.

Looks nice, but I saw nothing of interest there at all, having played BoTW and The Witcher.

I think that's a Rockstar staple at this point. They started doing gameplay videos with voice overs since I think RDR.

Depends. Is this one being written by Dan Houser?

Yeah the honour/moral stuff in RDR wasn't great anyway (the only way it really made sense was to try and play as a good guy otherwise it made the story bollocks) so it will be interesting to see how it develops, if at all. The "make enemies" bit would be cool if specific NPCs remember you (think something like the nemesis system) but it could just be they get pissed at you once and thats it.

Looks flipping gorgeous. :wub:

Looks lovely. May not get this at launch as I have other stuff but will deffo be getting it at some point.

Exactly how I felt. It felt like a game I’ve played before but shiny.

Cowboys are in the same category as pirates for me wondering why the hell people fawn over them and romanticise them so much.

Looks like everything I ever wanted

Love Westerns
Love Rockstar
Love Red Dead 1

I want this game now, hyped

Having seen the price of this game and its ridiculous special editions, I can comfortably say I'll not be buying this one. I loved RDR and GTA V but Rockstar have been outclassed by the competition by quite a way recently and they're far from being the market leader they were 15 years ago. As far as I'm concerned they can no longer keep up with the better developers out there. And joining the £100 special edition club is just another reason not to bother with them anymore.

I agree with all of that tbh. If you play gta 4 and 5 you will see that the actual gameplay mechanics really aren’t that good. Its a disgrace that we haven’t had a new gta game this generation. Who bloody plays gta online? There must be quite a few of them!

So do I get this on PS4 Pro or Xbox One X?

Looks good to me, I loved RDR and so this being more of the same but with shinier graphics is perfect.

The tat editions can strawberry float off though. :lol:

Haven't they been in that club for a while? I know GTA IV came out with some naff lockbox special edition with a load of gooseberry fool inside. Although, it did come with a soundtrack CD, which might be useful now they've patched out all the music with expired licences.

You can pre-order the standard version of the game from Amazon for £49.99 which is the standard price for any new game. Don’t really see the issue.

I’ll only get the standard game. Im sure like tomb raider some places like base will sell cheaper
