Red dead 1 and the dlc October 28th baybee!

Played it at 4K on my Series X and it looked exactly how I expected for a dated 2010 game.

Rockstar just running on nostalgia with these crappy remasters, and probably close to a full $60/R1000 too. The game deserved to be out on PC ages ago at like $20 max. The remaster doesn’t even have tessellation from DX11 in 2009 let alone the super modern stuff that you’d find in the TLOU Remake that can be picked up on special for R600.

Played the 1st act only and went to check the online. Found out my niece hijacked my account so she could play it online. Lost the motivation to play as I was still busy with other games.

Yeah but one game is fun, the other is just yawn. Doesn't better how "good" it looks

I am one of the few that really loved the 1st one, 1st completed it on PS3 back on launch, then again in 2021 on Xbox with FPS boost.

Tried the prequel after that, did not enjoy it as much, also never completed it.

RDR was amazing, I was referring to the overly hyped overly repeated TLoU. I loved just riding out into the wild west in RDR

Not a fan of the trailer, I liked the feeling of isolation in the first game, npc,s and a personality for the player character spoils it a bit.

Not sure if it's an npc or maybe a sign that the game will have co-op. Will have to wait and see but I'm still very much looking forward to it.

I think the girl in the sub is from 1 while the afro swimmer is from Below Zero. But both games were great, I'm sure they can deliver something good again.

Below zero was ok, but a bit of a disappointment after the variety of biomes we had in the first game, and too much surface stuff.
I`m sure it will be good regardless.
