Day 1Every video looks better and better. Hopefully they'll fix the atrocious enemy shooting. This isn't quake 3 in the ol' west. Lets get real here. Considering the medicine of the time period, any even slight bullet wound could get infected so I highly doubt that anyone would run and gun like that.spoiler (click to show/hide)[close]

I just want to bone some chinawomen while firing my six-shooters. Is that too much to ask?
Take Two has announced that Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption is now due for release on 18th May in the US and 21st May elsewhere - three weeks later than originally planned.The publisher issued its Q1 financial results this evening and also noted that Grand Theft Auto IV has now sold over 15 million units worldwide, while BioShock 2 has shipped three million units.Elsewhere there was confirmation that LA Noire, Mafia II, Max Payne 3 and Sid Meier's Civilization V are all due out in the company's fourth fiscal quarter - which ends 31st October 2010 - but the publisher noted that its guidance "reflects the potential movement of one of these titles into fiscal 2011".

I know it needs more time,but....Nooooo :'(
My greatest concern about this game is character control,shooting mechanics...tried to play TLAD recently and it feels like controlling Russian submarine...Hopefully it will be better...if not i will have play GTAIV before RDR hits
what does it matter. you gonna pirate either one anyway.
Don't think it's the video. I'm just hoping it won't affecting aiming too bad. Everything else looks really good.
yeah, usually they make them look better in videos
Actually, the special edition comes with the scalp of one of the developers from the GUN 2 team.
Game looks like sex, hope it won't be another dissapointment like GTA4. Then again there is not cellphone so this might be good.
Game has regenerating health...gaf says soRed Dead Redemption
Some more stuff I got from PAX today:As your bounty goes up, you can expect to fight harder baddies similar to GTA's 6-star wanted rating system. One rep said you would eventually fight policemen combined with hunting dogs (but another rep said he hadn't heard of the dogs).EVERY building has an interior.From the pause menu, the Social Club option will keep you up to date on challenges, tournaments, and other stuff that the Social Club does (I don't know, never used it myself). He said it's Rockstar's most ambitious use of the Social Club in any of their games to date, all the way back to Table Tennis.Guns feel appropriately powerful. Marston goes down in about 7 shots or less (regenerative health makes everything okay after about 10 seconds though), and enemies die from 1 or 2 shots. This is compensated by how slow the old guns fire and reload. Remember that fat fucking miner in the screenshots? There was one of them in the mansion in the demo. I killed him with a single pistol shot to the chest.Riding your horse through cacti lowers its fatigue bar. So it's not just a "how often you can spur your horse" bar like the carrots in Zelda. It also acts as a makeshift health bar for your horse. (I'm kinda half-guessing on this one. the two reps seemed to disagree here)Seth is basically Gollum.Animations are pretty damn amazing. I watched another player get killed by being shot in the back. When he was killed, Marston dropped his pistol, arched his back, and grabbed the wound with a grimace before collapsing to the ground.You can lasso a dog. You cannot lasso a dead, skinned dog.When people die, they drop ammo from their gun that glints in the light. You can also loot bodies for supplies like tobacco and stuff. But don't activate the looting animation while there are still enemies around.Buggggyyyyy. I'll cut them some slack because it's still an awesome game, but I managed to crash the game once during my 15-minute playthrough. There were several visible glitches with animations (crab walking) and weirder things (a little bit of teleporting).You can lasso and hogtie other players in multiplayer.Close-combat finishing moves are pretty brutal. This one dude stuffed a rifle under a guy's head and blew his brains out. I took a closer look and there was literally a huge hole blasted out of his head. It was kinda gross.Dueling is another minigame similar to Revolver's. You still have to grab your pistol, "paint" the target, and kill him. Or something. I kinda forget how Revolver's system worked, except that it wasn't balanced for multiplayer. I don't know if dueling will be in Redemption's multiplayer.
I'm gonna lasso so many criminals
How you respond to these challenges affects how the world responds to you. Lending a helping hand boosts your fame, which in turn helps you throughout the campaign. And bolstering your honor also boosts your status. This means you’ll get lower prices in stores, less hassle from gangs, and friendlier treatment from law enforcement — to the extent that they’ll overlook the crimes you commit.Gleefully slaughter all around you, though, and you’ll have a rougher time of it, as open criminalization attracts local lawmen. Though they’re easily outrun in the desert, your Wanted rating doesn’t fade the way it does in GTA: you have to pay the fine or clear it with a pardon letter — stolen, earned, or bought at one of the stores where you can fence any collected animal skins. Hides from wild creatures work better if you prefer, but nothing’s to stop you from scalping the contents of the local stables, guard dog and all — well, apart from the owner, who’ll come out and shoot you. And the police, who’ll hunt you after you kill him. Still, if you’re fast enough with your six-shooter (and you don a face-concealing bandana beforehand), you can sort all that out without racking up too much of a bounty.Even the desert, which we’d worried would be little more than a boring wasteland, is packed with distractions. Predators — human and animal alike — wander around, needy locals flag you down for help, and distant smoke plumes signal campfires in the desert. Sit down at one and you’ll pick up the gossip, in a style akin to GTA’s radio stations. Our effort at socializing fared badly: the guests turned out to be cannibals and the bound-and-gagged lady turned out to be lunch. We’re promised less-hungry dinner guests in other encounters, though.
