    It's hard to not compare them. Open world/city, stealing cars, running people over/killing people, gangs, making money, but I know what you mean. :84:

    I could never get as immersed in to the old school GTA as the ones from gta3 and upwards.

    Maybe I was too young, maybe I just didn't appreciate the style.

    Used to love playing the games, but I honestly couldn't tell you what the * story was about.

    Loved the games at the time, but bought Chinatown Wars for the Vita last year and have real problems playing top down games all of a sudden. Might be the small screen, might be me getting too old or a combination of both. I prefer the later style too but even having problems getting used again to GTA 3 and Vice City on the PS4 (Now only playing it for the radio stations :giggle1:). Still love playing San Andreas though.

    Rockstar have, unsurprisingly, announced that RDR2 has been delayed until Spring 2018.


    Official Statement:


    They also shared some new images from the game:

    Expected, must be why Ubisoft are taking advantage and releasing their western styled game in September, good business on their part people will want something to tide them over until RDR2. Hope it isn't a buggy mess though.

    Those images :35:

    Images look beast man.
    Gutted it is delayed, equally because that to me suggests a gta6 won't happen for quite some time then. Unless they plan a quick announcement and release within this calendar year - which they tend never to do.

    Those images are stunning.

    I'm not too fussed about the delay, because it was expected. But therein is the issue. Why do developers constantly put a date or window on a release date only to then push it back by months? Rockstar must have known the game needed more time when they announced Fall 2017. Stop being * and just hold off on a release date until you know the game will be ready.

    Have you not played it? Stupendously good. They took all the best parts from American and Italian westerns and turned it into the game of the decade.

    Wish I could experience it for the first time all over again. Definitely one of the best games of that generation of consoles. Probably my second favourite.

    Nine out of ten.

    If you get the chance, give it a go. Though half a thought it may get remastered now.

    The part when you first enter mexico and the song... What a feeling.

    In regards to to a remaster, there was talk that the code base for Red Dead Redemption was that bad, that a remaster would actually be a bit of tough undertaking, if not impossible (which also seems to be the popular explanation/theory for there never being a PC port). There seems to be a bit of Chinese Whispers with this though, so I'm not sure how accurate that actually is.

    Some random South Korean website said there was a remaster in development last year, although that's obviously a bit of an iffy source.

    Those images look class. If it's anywhere near as good as the first game we're all in for a treat.

    Arthur Morgan, son of James Morgan who rode with Quantrills's Raiders alongside * Bill Anderson and Jesse James in the civil war. So hopefully that means we can get a zombie DLC single player that features Confederate Zombies :fear:

    I'm surprised this thread isn't active.

    Anyone done the gtav treasure hunt? Gets you a double action pistol in gta and is also carried in to red dead.
