I am curious. I was closer to buying Read dead than i was from buying GTA4 and 5.

day one buy on xb1 for me if this happens

I won't hesitate to preorder it, RDR was one of the most memorable games last gen, I found the setting incredible and honestly can't wait to see what they do with next gen hardware, as it was gorgeous on 360 alone!

Riding my black stallion down a dusty path before getting pounced on by a cougar, scared me shitless haha. The bears, the bears were real as well haha. Feeling very nostalgic!

I have Red Dead Redemption just sitting here waiting to be played...... eh I'll get around to it

A new RDR in 2015 would top off an already incredible year! BloodBorne, Batman: Arkham Knight, StarWars Battlefront 3, Uncharted 4, Persona 5/ Disagea 5 along with maybe FF? I'm going for broke next year lol.

Red Dead Redemption was good, but it was overrated imo and I'd rather Rockstar North jump onto developing the next GTA instead of putting any effort into a new RDR.

People bashed GTA4 for reasoning that there was "nothing to do." There's a lot to do in GTA4, but in RDR there's even less. I know it's the wild west and they did an amazing job capturing that feeling, but that doesn't make it any less true. With the advancements in GTA5, a new RDR would feel even more lifeless than it did when comparing it to GTA4.

There's tons of things to do in both GTA4 and RDR. What some people didn't like is how slow-paced RDR is, which is precisely why I value it above GTA.

RDR has for me, the finest song ever composed for a game. 

Far Away is awesome:

So I'll probably give the next RD a miss even if it gets rave reviews. Yeah I wasn't a big fan of the story myself and the ending wasn't as mindblowing as many people play it up to be.  They need to make the skinning animation skippable in the sequel cause that shit gets REALLY annoying lol but other than that I think the gameplay was great.  The story did get repititive.  Evil and/or crazy guy talks for awhile, Marston asks them to clarify, guy says he'll pay Marston back, Marston says that they better be truthful and helps them.  Wash, rinse, repeat until they finally pay you back during their last mission.

And it's stupid besides. If you skin an animal right there's basically no blood, and certainly no blood splatter. The best thing about the gameplay, IMO, was the poker and blackjack. Everything else was a bit fun, and in some cases different for the first couple of times, but it all got a wee bit tiresome after a while. I don't understand why a game like inFamous gets panned for repetitive side missions, and RDR gets more or less a free pass on the same. There is also something rather broken about a game when a "cheat" like bullet time basically becomes essential and then when you use it, it turns what would be a difficult fight into a piss easy fish in a barrel walk through. At least limit its use to, outside of the tutorial mission, to something that is triggered only once in a fight, which is a reward for having taken down a certain number of guys, or perhaps an assist if your hit % goes too low (but not zero so you can't just fire into the air a whole lot at the start and trigger it), which means you're too useless to finish the fight without a little help, which I admit would be me a lot of the time.Bullet time was fun to use, but it made the game too easy.
