Memorize it, then close your eyes.

Feel the force flowing through you.

I would swear that Legendary Cougar was a leopard.

I thought it was.

I just got got ambushed by some bounty hunters and a fucking cougar. If it was just the bounty hunters I'd have been fine, but the cougar came out of nowhere and knocked me down and then I got shot a bunch of times.

I have to admit, I've gotten a little bored of RDR. I hope I don't quickly get tired of WFC. I'd like it more of the netcode was a little more stable, it's really killing the already small online community of that game.

The game needs more towns. There's only 5 proper ones.

same here, but I know I'll get back to it eventually.

Me too. Most of the time I just turn the cheats on and go round shooting people in the legs.

Also, winning at five finger fillet was easy enough.

God damn this game really drags the story out. Feels like it should have ended a while ago.

i found that with lots of rockstar games

Well yeah, but usually the world is entertaining enough to keep it interesting. RDR's world isn't.

Isn't there more to do than in GTA4?

I found GTA4 really dull, i felt there was less to do then in VC and SA

I hate Jack. I hate him so much.

isn't the multiplayer quite a big part of this game?

Is it worth getting?

Don't bother with multiplayer.

Also, how many missions am I going to have to do with this little shit? I got hopeful when he went off to hunt a bear, but he lived.

No, not really. Jack is the main character's son, so it's understandable. I just hate him. The whole last part of the game is boring.

They pretty much only did that so it could throw you off guard with what happens right after that segment of the story. I didn't enjoy it much either. The final stranger mission to complete the game wasn't that outstanding either.

The whole last part of the game is the best and Jack is just a troubled teenager and that's how he should be.

Well, now that the story is over and done with I can get on with the general fun stuff. I'm going for 100%, and all I need for it is another stranger mission and a few bounties I think.

Also, there's 4 new DLC packs on the way for this game.

Undead pack sounds the most promising.

Agreed. I would probably express interest in the "Liars and Cheats" one (I absolutely love Liar's Dice), but RDR's multiplayer hates me and keeps disconnecting me for no good reason...

The Tomahawk would be cool to have too, but I'm not paying $10 just for that.
