@everyone: Thoughts?
I have only played about 4-5 hours (not story time actual game time) so I'm not very far, but I quite enjoy it at this point. Was wondering if anyone had a more thoughts of how they like it if they are further in the game.

Weirdly HMV are giving away a blu-ray of 3:10 to Yuma when you pre-order. I was gonna buy it anyway so I pre-orded.

I started playing last night, pretty amazing so far.
Haven't tried it online but the story mode is so fun, on my first race with the owner of the ranch I killed my horse and had to skin it to sell as meat and leather hahaha.Then some guy yelled to me as I was riding on the desert between counties something like: "please sir, I'm stranded can I get a ride?" so I stopped for him, and he basically threw me out of the horse and stole it from me, so I had to shoot him in the back.
Riding down the desert during sunset looks AMAZING,
the music/ sound effects are INCREDIBLE and when you are in a shootout with several people, the way the fall from their horses as you shoot them looks like a movie.I also got 4 drinks at the bar and then my character got super trashed, stumbling outside the bar until he fell flat on his face, hilarious!

The level of detail in this game is insane, in both graphics and audio. These are some random brilliant things I've noticed. Dynamic clouds are not just a pretty texture, they block the sun and cast a shadow on the environment. Thundertorms with lightning flashes and ultra-realistic sound effects. Rain with clouds and/or sun. The sound of a squeaky bridge while you ride across it. The horse's muscles tense up in high-detail as they run. Night-time in games usually looks pretty dull, but in this one it looks good, and you can shoot out any lights. Shooting a deer as it's jumping and watch it fall to the ground with realistic physics. Stopping a hanging by shooting the rope.

shooting birds as they fly by is something I thought..
should I shoot it? naaah it won't do anything...
they way they fall.. wow..

If you buy the handkerchief from the general store you can still rape and pillage and it won't effect your honor.

I fucking love this game.
I wandered onto some poor bastard's ranch last night. I killed some of his cattle for hides and meat. He did not take kindly to this, so I shot him in the back with my double barrel. His wife came out of the house asking what was going on. Big mistake. You should have quietly hid in the house, ma' lady, because now you're dead too. I chased her around the house, and in bullet-time took out her legs. She falls to the ground, and the bitch pulls a shotgun on me! A fucking shotgun. A little late for that one, missy. I aim, and she breathes no more.
Again, I love this game.

I got this lady asking me to find her son, so I go to the mountains were he was last seen, and I find a shoe on the floor and blood stains on the floor, my character picks them up, and it said "signs of violent struggle" and the mission is now over.
I looked around didn't find anything else, no kid, no bad guys, the map stop showing like I was on a mission. I was like... man... what do I have to do now? I can't go back that poor mother and give her the shoe...
- should I just shoot her clean in the face and end her suffering instead?Miguex

Yeah I concur, this game is ridiculously good. Ive spend 9 hours in it already and have only done a handful of story missions. Im busy hunting, playing mini games, doing cruel things to ppl, side quests, all kinds of shit. Major time sink this game is.
