Really excited about this title. We viewed all the videos and it looks awesome. Anyone pre-order yet? How much is it?

Edit - Pre-order at GH on Tuesday, $50 reserve only along with Alan Wake although more looking forward to Red Dead. There better be a "cowgirl" option and not only dudes to customize the look.

Honestly no idea what the total price will be, forgot to ask. Should be about the same 189-219 for new games. Alan Wake is special edition so may cost more.

PlayAsia prices
Alan Wake, regular ed $49.99 (RM 160)
Red Dead $59.99(RM 190)

Yep will add you on xbox, will be nice to join a posse later.

Price hikes where?

Oh thought they're ok, got discounts and markdown sometimes. And their customer service is great. Best stocked for 360 games in the area i think.

3 more days to release of RDR! Can't believe not much buzz about it here.

Where is this? They can't break 'street date' though right.

I can add anyone just do not want to broadcast my gamertag here because of a certain problem I've had with someone who won't stay out of my life

I'm getting it for sure have pre-ordered and just waiting for the SMS that the game is ready for sale. Have not played online multiplayer before, just got xbox live working a few months ago, but have played all GTA games to completion from GTA3 - not that it's similar to RDR tho but maybe that'll give me some cred

Can also add my husband to the list. So that's two already.

Release may be delayed to Wednesday oh well soon just not tomorrow! cannot wait lah

We may not. It is not fixed release date. Think it depends on release in Asia so we may be in the same boat.

Just started too. Am having fun exploring the worlds hunting & skinning animals and just got the lasso.

Tried joining multiplayer last night but I got booted out because of my connection. I've never tried playing live multiplayer before, is there some settings I need to tweak?

Can I add all of you guys? I got no friends, only skeevs

Ok added all of you guys.

I can connect to live ok and the network test is fine. We'll see when go home.

Ya is first time multiplayer will be total noob Topped up Gold yesterday.

That's cool avatar awards for playing the games. More games should be like that.

Have added you, am the girl that added u today lah

Is purple circle on map close to Hanging Rock. Check the map.

Um free roam what are u supposed to do?

Jonee you're on my map .. where are u? How to teleport to u.

Edit - my connection sucks, keep getting bumped out to single player

Thanks Mr Alby,jonee and everyone that helped fixed the connection already. Managed to join up with you guys yesterday late but didn't really know what to do - was on my trusty mule Managed to upgrade to level 11 today and played multiplayer in a posse. But omg I hate the connection error thing - i see tons of loading screens especially the neverending "cannot connect with players" one.

Ya I want to join posse too. Every time I join MP just get smacked down by a huge posse. One time only got to join a random posse (that saw me shooting lawmen and getting over $1k bounty to be Public Enemy) but got disconnected and lost them They were very organized and were playing the game against gang hideouts instead of ganging up on single new people that joined.

So in the end spent whole weekend playing Single Player. Got to Mexico so far but tend to get side-tracked from the main missions.

Can't shoot. Just kill all his buddies then go close and lasso him. Keep your horse close if you can as some of them as once their buddies die they will jump on horse and run.

Yes I recommend to do all Bonnie missions first. Those missions will teach you skills you need. It is only 4 - 5 missions and quite interesting ones story-wise.

Ok will see if can meet up with you guys later. I don't have a headphone so I can't really talk to people - so should not lead a posse. I need to go search for it, think it came with the Elite but is boxed somewhere. I should be on most of the evening unless the husband wants to play single player.

If you whistle your horse will buck other people off. I've tried this on horse thieves but not on bounties. I hate horse thieves you take a -50 honor if you kill them once they're off the horse.

If your horse is lost or killed, you can use the deed in your inventory or wait a bit and whistle a new horse will come.

The first few bounties did not have the dedication marauderz had Try to disarm but sometimes they still die because of a bad shot or if they were injured already. Only after getting the lasso it's gotten easier. Don't even try to disarm, just rush up on a horse and lasso him.

Played a ton so far but still have not unlocked final area. Wanna go get my Survivalist and Sharpshooter Rank 7!

Anyone got the Legend of the West outfit yet? My favorite is the duster so hopefully that outfit will be in black and look sharp.

I hate bears. Spent an hour last night chasing a bear around with a nice view of his backside only to get killed by his backup bear buddies or wild boars. grrrrrr!

I love the new area .. Tall Trees, Blackwater .. that whole area is brutal, should never be without your horse there.

thanks for the heads up about the achievement. i hate bear country .. ugh, i try to get the heck out of there or be on a horse. tonight i have to (try) go hunt for a bear again.

think u can't hire hookers. john marston seems to be dedicated to his wife at least so far for me and from his comments from the ladies offerin their services

i wince a little everytime i kill a horse even in a gunfight. i don't skin my own horse when they get shot but sometimes skin other horses especially when i need money. funniest thing was being in a duel and the horse standing right in between of us, then losing the duel and getting shot along with the horse both collapsing at the same time.
