The multiplayer sounds cool... uk.xbox360.gamespy.com/xbox-360/red-dead-redemption/1083822p1.htmlwww.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption/features/multiplayer"With a range of new, innovative forms of classic team-based and free-for-all games, and a revolutionary new Free Roam mode that's unlike anything ever seen before, Red Dead Redemption raises the bar for open-world multiplayer gaming," Rockstar stated via Red Dead's newswire. Further details from the game's multiplayer page: Posses: Sometimes it takes a posse to take on a gang. Form posses with friends to take on gang hideouts and ambient challenges within Free Roam, or have your posse leader bring you into competitive matches at any time. Posses can hear each other talk via voice chat, no matter how far apart they may be.
Gang Hideouts: Just like in the single-player experience, some areas of the multiplayer world are overrun by bandits. Gather up your posse or any other players in Free Roam, ride out to find the hideouts and take those scurrilous bandits down.
Ambient Challenges: Are you a hunter, a survivalist, or a shootist? The entire multiplayer world is filled with ambient challenges. Whether alone, with other Free Roam players or with your posse, discover unmarked hunting areas to take down waves of deadly predators, track down rare fauna in Survivalist Challenges, or earn yourself the title of Public Enemy by marauding towns and taking on Law Enforcement."

www.gametrailers.com/video/gameplay-series-red-dead/64784New trailer detailing some game mechanics and the competitive multiplayer modes. I seriously have the horn for this game after that trailer, the multiplayer looks pretty cool, and the open world element means it wouldn't always be just mega fast paced spawn/die/spawn/die. It's consoles only, that much sucks. But damn, i'm gonna get it. Mike - do you own a 360? Are you averse to playing on the 360? If no 360 people were buying it, i'd get it on PS3 to play with you, it's just I find 360 voice comms a hell of a lot easier and more useful than the hit and miss ps3 voice comms.

Hey Mate Yeah i own a 360, just hate giving bill gates more cash than i already do so cannot be arsed to get it online. Have pre-ordered this on PS3, then a week later Alpha Protocol is out.....right i have one month to think of a valid reason: a) to get GF out of house b) to not see her for a while.....mind you she would probably like that Seriously though go with what works best for you i am hardly ever on the PS3/XBOX/PC nowadays...i just buy games as they make swanky coasters for my cofee cups.

LOL EPIC GREEBO SI TURNAROUND. But seriously, cool, cause me, iain and terry are defo getting it... No turnaround. I never decided.. First review came in at 9.7/10 and after watching some gameplay and interviews i've decided it's worth being one of the 2 xbox games I buy a year.

It's got all the content of GTA IV, cause that game was rammed full of content, things to do, places to see, but with a waaaay cooler setting, much, much better multiplayer and co-op.
And I get to rape hookers and cut them up.
Need I say more?

Well, that's subjective. For me, it's not a cooler setting than GTA IV. Also my main concern is that In GTA IV I could happily drive around quite well using a wank control pad and run people over, and i'm not sure i'm going to be able to do that on a horse! Seems like more gun-play is involved. I'll also miss the radio headlines and tv shows - Although this game does have newspapers and silent movie theatres.. It won't be the same

I think we're getting it on the 360, since a couple of people interested in playing don't own PS3's. Sure we can't make you reconsider playing it on 360, and being in our posse?

YEah its on PS3 for me, just cannot bring myself to pay for the online widget thing for the 360 and the fee to play online. i know its not a lot, its just i am morally opposed to paying it
