i need a red dead intervention. not sure what i'm gonna do when i finish this game. are they working one a second one? are they, are they???
- This IS a second one. I'd be surprised if they didn't, but I wouldn't expect it till 2015.DoTheMacarena

Fiance bought it for me yesterday (wow) classy move.
They really have succeeded in creating the best looking natural world i've ever seen in a game.
Unfortunately, as a compromise for getting the game, i have to be a man of honor.

finally made it to blackwater (kind of a plain-looking city if you ask me)
i enjoyed the hike up into the snowy mountains. the rock climbing/shimmying aspects reminded me a little of old-school tomb raider..

not sure if i understand the game yet. So far, I have just been running a bunch of little errands. Is there a greater point to all this? if so, when will that start make itself apparent to me?

i think by the time you've met and done some missions with nigel west dickens, seth, and irish, you should have pretty good idea of what's going on. early on, the stuff you do with bonnie is more or less tutorials cleverly worked into the game with a tiny bit of story.

ok, so how many of you have beaten the game? and i mean *actually* beat it? i don't want to spoil anything for anyone, so i'll ask my question in the notes ->
- *SPOILERS AHEAD*SteveJobs
- did you know you can go after edgar ross as jack marston? nice ending, but i wasn't able to shoot his gun out of his handSteveJobs
- it only allowed a kill, which sucks cuz i wanted him to beg before i executed him. >:)SteveJobs
- Oh shit I didn't know that. Where do you find him?discoduro
- Did you rampage on his wife and brother?Naygon
- I killed them all.neandersthal
- go find the question mark on the map in blackwater and talk to the guy. he'll tell you where to find him.SteveJobs
- and yeah, i showed no mercy on his wife, though i did go easier on brother and shot him in the back of the head.SteveJobs
- i lassoed his wife and flung her into the lake, it was epicwrong

one more fun thing i'm sure many overlooked: flowers for a lady. i saved it for last, cuz picking flowers is the most boring thing you can do in the game, and there's a bit of travel involved to find each kind - but the payoff was worth it. didn't expect what happened at all :D

i FINALLY figured out how to cheat properly. i kept holding L analog stick in the opposite direction the arrow moved. however, the trick is to tap it lightly once or twice. it's also nice to be able to switch the card up your sleeve for one in your hand just before you fold.

ok, i'm ready for a sequel. there's side missions here and there, but the single-player replay value is dwindling with each poker game. only thing left is get the outfits, but don't really care about them so much. guess i couuuld start over..
anyone else besides me still playing this?
- If you played as a good guy you could play as an outlaw, it will make the game more challenging.CygnusZero4
- play online, grow your character therescarabin

did nothing but play RDD for the last three days. only thing i don't love about it so far is that i have $10,000+ and nothing to spend it on. i wish i could build a house somewhere or start a ranch...

for those looking to keep track of stats and stuff, http://socialclub.rockstargames.… (you'll have to create an account and link your gamertag/psn details)... it's worth it for this page alone: (completed 'story' but still tonnes to do - only says 68%)
but you can compare stats with friends too which is a pretty normal thing in games these days, but is strangely compelling looking at who's shot more bears/rabbits/deer/buffalo and who's picked the most plants.

also it would be cool to play your own music; rock some calexico or iron & wine while out shooting birds or whatever

^ oh i know. this would be a great feature for the next game! i keep traveling down to mexico, surveying lands thinking hmmm, this would make a nice spot for my new casa el grande!
also, it sucks i can't have Allende's mansion in Escalera!

- daayyaaaaaam, you got tonnes of shit. To be fair though, I got my head down and played the story with NO distractions, now I'll go and do some of that other stuff.josimar
- I'll go and do some of that other stuff.josimar
- i did it just the opposite. lots of hunting and side missions, just started knocking out story missions over the weekendscarabin

I managed to get to 100% and unlock the US Marshalls outfit. Now I can do whatever I want and not get the law after me. It's to bad that after playing the game for that long I could care less. Online is still fun with pals.
- I agree with this assessment. After hitting 100% one tires somewhat of the repetition.neandersthal
