A Fistful Of Red Dead Redemption Screens

Looks like sex.

@rich8606: Not Canada, eh?

Is it too much to ask for a gameplay trailer?

Is Lucasarts going to make a new Outlaw? It's an FPS (popular genre) and they've published non Star Wars game before in recent times (Fracture and the Monkey Island episodes).

I really enjoyed the original one & have been looking forward to this. Looks great.
I picked up Call of Juarez a month or two ago & that was also good fun, but felt like it could have had a bit more of the sandbox parts - nice to play something other than WWII anyway.
Does this have online play?

Riquez

I love Rockstar, and I love the first Red Dead, so I'm game.

It looks fantastic!

i'd spend a few dollars more on this.

trevortibble

the game being made in britain eh?

rich8606

This games lookin great. I gotta pick up the PS2 one and replay it sometime.

pandafresh

I love the look of the game, can't wait to try it out.

@rich8606: This comment is rate nice.

...starring Chuck Norris?

Pirateninjabot

@rich8606: Much like how Call of Juarez 1&2 were made in Poland.

Yet Western games are somehow still just for rednecks...

they should really rerelease the first one on xbox liveto promote this one. its one of the few games i'd buy all over again in that form.

@TheOddOneDies: it will also depend on whether its good, bad or ugly..

trevortibble

@trevortibble: For a fistful of Dollars it will be yours.

TheOddOneDies

@rich8606: Would you be surprised to know that one of the most popular westerns ever that launched one of our most popular actors ever was shot in Spain and directed by an Italian?

Wikipedia Spaghetti Western

Unfortunately it'll still have that 'Go into slo-mo, aim your reticule over an amount of targets and I'll auto shoot them for you' nonsense. I really hate that mechanic.

I prefered Gun's simple slo-mo where you could aim and shoot yourself.

Bergerac

@rich8606: No self-respecting Briton would ever speak like that eh.

And a trailer, for those that haven't seen it yet.

Showmeyomoves!

@Bergerac:
Committing suicide in slow-mo on Guns?

I didn't know you could do that.

"You know, for all the big sequels and big new games due in the next year, none have me as excited as Red Dead Revolver. What can I say. I'm a sucker for scowling cowboys."

That echoes my sentiments exactly, so instead of coming up with my own comment, I'll just quote the article.

Note: "Revolver" should read "Redemption".

Showmeyomoves!

@Kenny: You mean it looks like something that you can't wait to try out? I agree.

Showmeyomoves!

@trevortibble: Nicely done, guys. :)

Showmeyomoves!

@( shake cows, win a ) Milkshake!: It could be worse, he could have punctuated it with "innit".

MCX405

@PanicDriver: LOL No!

Bergerac

@Showmeyomoves!: They really should've called it Red Dead REVOLVER 2 ... sounds better with "Revolver" in it.

Bedlam

Now all we need is David Hayter to do this guy's voice acting, and we're a go!

jmsalal

@Yossarian: Arguably, all the most popular westerns were shot by italians.

Koztah

@MCX405: Knawhatahmean?

@rich8606: That just means they'll use 'bloody' and 'blast' once in a while. Maybe a 'Good show!' here and there, too.

@jmsalal: I think it'd feel pretty wrong if someone who wasn't Snake talked like, eh, Snake =/

@Bedlam: I agree it sounds better, and I say it wrong all the time in my head. I guess they wanted to emphasize that this isn't a full-on sequel, just a continuation of themes and gameplay.

Showmeyomoves!

@Yossarian: i bet the collector's edition comes with a fistful of dynamite.

trevortibble

@trevortibble: Yeah, we're a wild bunch, aren't we!

TheOddOneDies

@Showmeyomoves!:

Is there a release date yet?

TheOddOneDies

whoops, I just regurgitated trevor's first joke in a different format...

so instead I'll edit and just lol

@Koztah: The same Italian.

Chaotix3

@Pirateninjabot: He's appearing in the spin off: "Red Dead Ridiculous"

@jmsalal: Forget it! T2 is rich enough, give Clint Eastwood a call!

Screenshot 4 disturbes me a little... it looks like a photograph o.O

@trevortibble: I think you can get that edition For A Few Dollars More! :D

@Showmeyomoves!: ouch, lol!
can commenters earn a comment of the week aimed at another's comment?

trevortibble

@Showmeyomoves!: personaly i prefer Grand Theft Red Dead

@Kamizzle: I would have liked it more if it were less of a shooting game and more of an actual western.

@rich8606: just like GTA is made in Scotland ;]

trevortibble

@syafiqjabar of Mars: God I love Outlaws. Every time I was playing the multiplayer for Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, it was very hard for me to resist shouting "Where are ya, Marshall?"

However, let's wait till Lucasarts starts putting out good games again before we ask them to go there. I don't need another happy memory tarnished by the Lucas curse.

@LordMaim: What they'll most likely do is announce a sequel, release some awesome footage and screenshots for it...

and then cancel it.

Showmeyomoves!

@trevortibble: And whether it will ride off into the sunset of Epic or languish in the OK Corral.

@jmsalal: A game about the Wild West and Patric "Ocelot" Zimmerman isn't the first character to come to mind for voice acting? For shame. q:

@Showmeyomoves!: Zing!

@hot_heart: say no MOAH!

@TheOddOneDies: I'm not sure if I like the palette either. Looking at his face, he seems like such a pale rider.

I really loved Revolver so I cant wait for this game to be released. Funny thing to, I normally hate western themed games.

Even though Gun was not a huge success, I still think it was a better game overall than the original Red Dead Revolver just because of its attempt to do a more "realistic" game set in the west rather than the arcade shooter that RDR turned out to be.

I'm hoping that Rockstar's trademark attention to detail translates to a more traditional western style this time around, and judging from the incredible screenshots my hope seems justified. I cannot wait to see this game in action.

Looks cool. I've been hoping for a good Western game for a while. Outlaws is still my favorite game in the genre. I liked Gun but it was too short and the world didn't feel big enough. I trust Rockstar to make a true open-world western game.

It would be cool to see a truly open Western game, where you can choose to be a good guy or a bad guy, lawman or outlaw, soldier, gambler, tracker, bounty hunter, pony express delivery, Pinkerton, Ranger, whatever.

It's Red Dead Redemption, the Tag is wrong

@LordMaim: Honestly "Gun" is probably one of my favorite games of all time. It was an awesome, completely underrated game.

khuntilla

o this looks good....this looks REEEEAALLLy good =O

khuntilla

Oh this looks fantastic! I am a sucker for Westerns, both movies and games.

Adhominem

@LordMaim:

I like games that are set once upon a time in the west.

jcb231

Wow that looks beautiful.

NoahSteam

@Yossarian: Maybe he would be more surprised to know that that Italian director was inspired by a Japanese director who did a samurai film, which was itself inspired by an American director's Western which was shot in the States?

Weird. /film snobbery

@Adhominem: if you didnt already know you can get Mad Dog McCree on wii for $20!

Dishwasher

@Dishwasher: really? LOL AWESOME.

btw aren't those graphics amazing, they must be using some sort of ridiculous state of the art directx 3000 rendering card.

Adhominem

It looks very nice but hopefully they'll work on their grass... maybe take another look at the grass in FarCry 2.

Otherwise a day one purchase for me!

MrPayne

@MCX405: But that would be slightly more accurate..

@LordMaim: Their making a sequel to Gun. Probably hear about it next year.

peterpanpiper2

I waited in line to watch this demonstration. It looked promising up until the guy went to kill the sheriff. The models became completely unrendered and stripped of all textures and shading to make it look like something you'd find in Virtua Fighter 1. That, and when he went to rescue the girl being hung, she was able to hang herself for at least 4+ minutes. And when you finally remove the noose from her, her model shows up as her arms out straight, and she's floating. It's weird. Other than that, the game looks nice.

Looks good enspecailly pic 15.

@( shake cows, win a ) Milkshake!: Isn't it though.

MCX405

The ONLY thing I remember from Red Dead Revolver is the 2 player quick draw. My cousin and I played the hell out of that just besting each other in duels.

Ryoji

@MrPayne:

I just beat that last night. Was kinda disappointed you couldn't free roam after beating it. Had a save at the prison though before entering the Heart of Darkness to go back and collect diamonds.

@magusonline: Who would of thought an unfinished game would have unfinished models.

I wonder if we'll be able to pick up prostitutes on horseback.

Could you please put a next and previous button on the full size pic so you don't have to keep closing every image just to go to the next one and then maximise it. There's just too many clicks going on here.

humanfrisbee

im so excited for this game, why oh why so far away. i hope theres a lot more fun to be had with the physics then in grandtheft auto, i took it back once i figured out you couldnt stand on moving cars anymore, i dont know why it had such a big impact on me but it did. sitting in the back of a pickup shooting passers by was all i dreamed of until it came out, and i was coldly denied

hokagespit

@hokagespit:
Better to get it right and be an enjoyable game, than rush it and release it unfinished. There's no magic "make game awesome" button to push, it just takes a long hard slog.

Hooded_Robin

@magusonline:
And that's why game companies show stuff behind closed doors, because joe shmoe doesn't understand that it's a work in progress.

Hooded_Robin

I always wanted to play the first game but for some reason I never did. I've been itching for a good Western game for a while. Gun didn't do it for me, Call of Juarez didn't either. Bound in blood just irritated me.
