Anyone else looking forward to this game?

I was a huge fan of Outlaws from Lucasarts when I was younger and this looks like a great modern day version. By the GTA people too, so should be well made, I hope!

When my PS2 broke I bought another and it came free with Red Dead Revolver. It was one of my favourite games and one of very few that I've actually completed. Can't wait for the new one!

I enjoyed Gun.

Is this genre called Unforgiven-'em-up? hehe

Shameless bump as this game finally comes out at the end of the month.

Will it be as popular as GTA IV. The online play looks rather cool. It's the one game (apart from GT5, obviously!) that I'm really looking forward to.

I am looking forward to this more than anything else bar GT5.

Couple of good articles from IGN:

I'm not really a person to play this type of game.

But I saw the trailer and online trailer and it looks amazing! Definitely going to be purchasing this.

I've only played my xbox once in the last two month (I feel like I'm neglecting it). Will be getting this the day it comes out and hopefully getting my gaming mojo back. Some of the online stuff looks awesome.

I was thinking the LE version, but decided against it as LE versions have had a tendency to have their in game bonuses appear on the Xbox market place within 6 months (Forza, Bad Company, Assassins Creed 2 for example) for less than the box difference. I went with Game, so I am still getting the Deadly Assassins outfit as a preorder bonus (and you usually get it a day early)

Yeah, but won't you miss the exclusive upgraded horse when we go galloping past you on your donkey?

Red Dead My Little Pony FTW!

In 6 months I will have moved on to something else - so I'd rather have Shergar from the get-go ta wink

rofl

As soon as I find me a worthy wild horse to break, that donkey will be getting a bullet between it's eyes.

Sounds silly but I'm excited about this game, it looks fantastic.
