Red Dead Redemption - A new game from Rockstar

[John]

Bottom post of the previous page:

Have your pre-order in place, @John ?

Yup.

[Antonov]

I am going to place my pre-order after my period here.

[Everso Biggyballies]

If you are having your period you will need a game to play to pass the time.

Plus chocolate. And the Sex and the city box-set.

[Antonov]

just a few days left!

[John]

Apparently the game will come with two discs, one to install, and one to play. You'll need approx 90 gigs available on the PS4.

[Antonov]

I have a PS4 pro, so shouldnt be an issue

[John]

I emptied my PS4 except for Bioshock. It's the only game that even deserves to be on the same hard drive as this masterpiece.

[Antonov]

I will pre-order later today.
I have lots of work to do this week, but will work almost day and night so I can set the weekend aside for RDR II.

Where in current day America would you say it takes place? And the exact date?

[John]

It takes place in 1899.

[MonteCristo]

23rd of March.

[Antonov]

Pre-ordered.

[John]

With less than two days until release, it appears that Herbert Mooooooooon, the shop-keeper who shot to fame in the Undead Nightmare version of RDR after his rant on the Jewish Brith Homosexual Catholic elite, will be returning.

HEERBEEERT MOOOOOOOON.

And more on the horse testicle physics:

"You can pick up anything you see on shop shelves and, if you are riding a male horse, its testicles shrink in the cold. It is absurd: what player will be paying attention to animals’ testicles?"

Aaaaand reviews are out. 10/10 from IGN. Including bonus footage of shrinking horse testicles.

[SBan83]

The Gamespot review gave it 9/10 though and if you watch it, it seems to expose a few legit niggles.



I really want to get it but have so many other games to finish that I know I'm better off getting it later once the price drops a bit.

Story spoilers in that review too. I've never heard such a negative review end up with a 9/10.

At the moment of writing, it's the highest rated game of all time on Metacritic, for both consoles (97/100).
