IT LIVES!!!

 

[Reginald]

Will be on 360 within a year after release.

Hence definitely hyped. I wonder how different it will be from GTA though? They've managed to make RDR far enough removed from the GTA series to make its own stand, let's hope this can too.

I wonder if this is going to be serious or have a tongue & cheek touch like gta?

Try within the same day. It went multiplatform. Its a LOOOOOONG story.

And man, I REALLY hope that is not what it looks like. I thought it was going to be so noire that it would be black and white as was first depicted. LA Confidential was an ok movie, but I don't see what everyone is drooling over. This looks pretty bad imho, but then again, its only one shot from the cover. I guess we will see....

A Rockstar detective game? Sounds like it could be really good, based on that alone.

Dammit, why do we have to be so handsome in these games? I want to be the brooding middle aged guy in the back with the loose tie and trench coat smoking a cig every 5 minutes, not snazzy swing dancer mcgee. If we are indeed the brooding looking dood they kind of did a bad job directing your eye to him.

 

[bodhi]

any real screens instead of what looks to be a pre-render of a small boy in a suit?

 

[swan_song1973]

its about time, i'd still like some gameplay though.

 

[Barnz]

so this is only for consoles, what a shame

Yeah, but you can bet that they will release a PC version after 6-8 months or so. I expect the same with RDR (hopefully).

Read some of the review, this is looking awesome. I love mysteries. Apparently they're praising the life-like models, even going so far to say they managed to get out of the uncanny valley. I'll believe THAT when I see it.

 

[TwwIX]

Pre rendered footage on a game magazine cover, you say?

FAS)DOAS)D:LASK****ING AWEEESOME!

Fixed.

We haven't seen anything.

Uh, there was a big preview too. With some gameplay screenshots, I could sorta tell they weren't completely pre-rendered since there were flaws. =Lookin'= good. You guys just like to complain.

 

[Dalamari]

Oh cool Mafia 2

*News about a game that isn't done by Valve*

Every Pseudo-witty HL2.net complainer fag:
"Hah, System Shock 2, Deus Ex, System Shock 2, System Shock 2? Pfff! Hah! Superior!"

*purchases game*

I think it would've been cool if the main character was modeled after Humphrey Bogart.

If that guy really is the main character than he really does look like a boy in a suit...
