Red Dead Redemption - Page 2

post #51 of 2231
Its not called Red Dead Revolver, that was the 1st game. Its called Red Dead Redemption. Just sayin.
post #52 of 2231
Who's supposed to be confused here?
post #53 of 2231
The new article Alex posted/linked to.
post #54 of 2231
He calls it Redemption.
post #55 of 2231
That's one of the better put together game trailers I've seen in a while. If the game's any good, I'm there.

Yeah, it's been corrected since I posted that. It did say Red Dead Revolver in the title and several times in the article. I was just letting him know.

According to this article right here, REDEMPTION has been delayed at least until November. Bummer. This is the game I'm most looking forward to this fall/winter.

How 'bout that Raul Ibanez?
post #59 of 2231
Hopefully it will still come out this year. Though if they do a early 2010 release, they have to go up against Assassin's Creed 2 and Mass Effect 2

Ibanez -- awesome! REDEMPTION being pushed to 2010 (which is what many of the game sites are theorizing) -- lame!

I guess I'll be buying MODERN WARFARE 2 this holiday season and ... hmm ... I'm not sure what else. BIOSHOCK 2, maybe, although I'm less than sold on the direction its makers are taking.

Hopefully, the extra time will allow Rockstar to make sure REDEMPTION is super polished. Weird that this was announced right after there was a big REDEMPTION marketing push, including all those articles at IGN.

Some hands on impressions from Pax 09

Red Dead Redemption’s old west is alive with randomly generated encounters. Riding through a valley, the main character was greeted by several travelers on horseback - each of whom could be solicited for conversation, and occasionally quests. There were also events, like a man being lynched, who could be rescued, ignored, or murdered, or a gang of outlaws raiding a stagecoach. All of these events, and the actions the player takes during them, add to an overall scale of fame, notoriety, and nobility. Even the tiniest actions, like hunting a rabbit for meat and pelts, eventually tie into some other aspect of the game. Animals can be hunted for their fur, which can then be sold at a trader. Banks in towns can be robbed, simply by walking in with a weapon drawn - or, a nobler player could diffuse a bank robbery committed by NPC bandits. These random events look like they could go a long way to shape Red Dead Redemption’s world.
If I had to pick one game for 2010, this would be it. Rockstar, you had me at Open World Western with Euphoria.

I just came hard.
post #65 of 2231
Fuck that. Has there ever been a really good western game??
post #66 of 2231
Sunset Riders, sort of. Red Dead Revolver was good in a cheesy, bizarre way.

And GUN was alright, albeit too short and too sparse with some eh sidequests. But there's no way I'm going to discount Rockstar's work on this one until it comes out and is proven to suck. So, I reject your cynicism, ZombieFever!
post #67 of 2231
I just want to be proven wrong..

The western setting is just too good of a premise to go this long without being done proper.
post #68 of 2231
Oh, trust me, I want you to be proven wrong too. If Rockstar pulls off a genuinely great Western game I probably won't see the light of day until I finish it.
post #69 of 2231
I seriously feel like the purpose of every other game I buy over the next few months will be to just pass the time until this comes out.

Well, maybe not MODERN WARFARE 2.

But, damn, I need me some REDEMPTION. Don't fuck this up, Rockstar!
post #70 of 2231
Don't forget BRUTAL LEGEND!
post #71 of 2231
Why can't this game come out, like, yesterday?

From the new Joystiq hands-on:

During the demo, Marston rode past an overturned stagecoach where a man asked us to help catch two escaped criminals -- dead or alive. We rode on ... right past said criminals escaping through the brush, one limping, the other running full speed. We also passed a camp where someone was just waking up to start the day, and our gracious host pointed out that, "You can ride over there, shoot the guy in the face, and take all of his stuff if you want to."
post #72 of 2231
A bit more awesomeness from the Joystiq preview:

The second encounter had Marston riding into a town called Armadillo, past the saloon, stores, a bank and other buildings that are all fully explorable with working commerce systems. He rode up to the sheriff's office and promptly blew away the deputy out front, igniting an all-out battle in town. Men tried to rope Marston with lassos, he gunned down a horse, throwing its rider to the ground and -- as his wanted level climbed higher and higher for "Murder of a Lawman" and "Horse Slaughter" -- Marston was gunned down.

post #74 of 2231
I read a few previews of this today, and it's like they're making the game for me. This is battling Mass Effect 2 for my most anticipated of 2010. Well, most anticipated if it's not named Halo: Reach*.




*Yeah, I'm one of those.
post #75 of 2231
More screens! So sexy.

Pleasepleasepleaseplease don't fuck this up, Rockstar.

post #77 of 2231
I'm thinking this game will satisfy me a little better than Call of Juarez: BOB currently is.
post #78 of 2231
Can't remember hearing an announcement, but 2010 for sure at this point.

And as for goofy promotional contests, this has to be one of the funnier ones. Unfortunately, any attempt on my part would look more like Matt Damon in The Informant! than Pancho Villa.
post #79 of 2231
The new trailer got leaked on a Playstation site:

low quality, but still... excellent

http://www.playstationpure.be/puretv...ead-Redemption

those facial animations are gorgeous.

April 27 2010!

I want it NOW

Classy.

Can't wait for this game. Although 2010 is literally becoming a 'potentially fantastic game' a month sort of situation.
post #82 of 2231
Still my most wanted game of 2010. When's FINAL FANTASY XIII come out? March? I may wait on that one till summer, 'cause once REDEMPTION is released, that's where all my play-time is going.

I don't understand German, but it looks like the video was taken down. Balls. Oh well, apparently the official trailer (with sound!) hits next week.

87MB quality download of the 2nd trailer.
post #85 of 2231
The new trailer's up at Kotaku. Absolutely stunning. I feel like I've been waiting for this game my whole life.
post #86 of 2231
Yummy. I want.
post #87 of 2231
Same here; skipped COJ, but my favorite Western game remains "Outlaws"; sure, it aged like crap, but the story, voice acting and music was fucking great and still is to this day.
post #88 of 2231
The tone of the first one kind of ruined it for me. I like the west being depicted realistically. The first one turned it into one big joke.

I hope this doesn't end up being italian in style, but here is my question:

Is it open world?

PS: I am one of those people waiting for a great western game. COJ was pretty good. Gun was great. RDR was Red Dead Retarded (speaking only for myself). I'm always excited for more western adventuring, I just hope they take the material seriously this time.
post #89 of 2231
Yea, that looks beautiful. I would love cutscenes to be handled spaghetti style.

Yes it is, a sandbox Western videogame.

And it's set at the end of the 1800s/early 1900s, with the end of the wild west etc.
post #91 of 2231
Put it up here, along with a confirmed release date- http://chud.com/articles/articles/21...TTI/Page1.html

Well I'll be buying it then.

I just hope that the tone is serious and realistic

PS: I wish they wouldn't set western games in that time. It's a depressing period of western history. I'd much more prefer a game set in the world of Lewis And Clarke. A feeling that you're the first white person to see these places. (Or, even better, but it obviously wont ever happen, a game where you're an indian)
post #93 of 2231
April 27th is suddenly a long, long ways from now. This looks awesome in every way, shape, and form. Hopefully this game will be a huge smash and finally inspire the creation of a proper Western MMORPG.
post #94 of 2231
Maaaaaan I want that game so bad right now.

Was that the voice of Johnny Klebitz from The Lost And The Damned coming from the main character in the trailer? Sure sounded like him.
post #95 of 2231
post #96 of 2231
A new Kotaku preview. I especially like this part:

With his horse he could ride the plains and use maps to search for treasure. Those maps aren't very game-like. They illustrate landmarks you'll have to be sharp enough to spot for yourself in Marston's world.

Too many games point you directly to their secrets, removing the sense of discovery.
post #97 of 2231
I am seriously loving the look of this game. Now my fingers AND toes are crossed that it will take the west seriously and not be goofy. If it's a serious open world western, it might very well be my GOTY2K10

Likewise, it could be my game of forever!
