    Looks really good, love the period it is set in., the music in it is absolutely class they even have The Band in it albeit one song. Been watching Walkthrough videos on youtube definitely like the look of it. Probably wait till Christmas or January before getting it though will most like have dropped about 15 quid by then. If there is significantly good DLC i'll just wait for a definitive edition later on next year.

    Played the first couple of hours of it and I quite like it.

    Game is beautiful, and the music is top class.

    Graphics look quite bad and people have been saying it's not very good.

    The graphics, in the gameplay video I watched, looked great.

    The cutscenes genuinely almost looked live action

    Don't know what footage you've seen, but I think it's great.

    For starters it's locked at 30fps.

    Well it still looks great to me. Even so, graphics aren't everything.

    Indeed. People get so uptight about graphics and "fps".

    Having great graphics is a bonus, the main thing is story and gameplay.

    Gameplay is fps. No use having a great story if it doesnt play well. There's no excuse, it's a AAA title with a AAA price.

    FPS has an affect on gameplay aye, but it isn't the be all and end all. I'm talking about how does the character control, the vehicles, the gunplay etc etc.

    Having a good story with good characters can definitely make a game with average gameplay worthwhile. GTA and Red Dead Redemption control quite poorly, but they are fantastic games because they have top notch characters, dialogue and an interesting story.

    Grew up with the original and loved it, second was decent, not too sure about getting this one though.

    Is that from the game?
