Crazy Diamond Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 I've had this game for a few days now, only played about three hours owing to work, but I have to say... Pretty boring. I remember it had very good reviews but I'm herding ****ing cows and breaking in horses. Does it get better? I bloody hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyboy Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 It does get better but then it gets really repetitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emerson massey Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Dont know about it getting repetitive, a fine game, one of my favourites, and i have been playing video games for over 20 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyboy Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 The scenery is really cool and you can get into the vibe of being a cowboy with freedom to do as you please but eventually it gets boring riding here and there over and over doing the same kind of missions over and over. That said, the zombie add on game is fun and also the online stuff is a good blast as well. Ive been playing for over 25 years thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Good game but completed and sold within 2 weeks, almost as repetetive as Farcry but not quite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The herding cows and breaking in horses etc is to teach you the basics of the game. In the same way GTA has basic missions early on it is to get you ready for the big set piece missions later on. Plus, for most "cowboys" in real life herding cows and breaking in horses is exacting what they would have done for their entire time on the ranch! Red Dead Redemption is my favourite game of all time if you exclude Football Manager. The expansion for Red Dead, "Undead Nightmare" is also worth a go.

Yeah I thought it might be the case, but still, bit naff. I've just landed in Mexico which is interesting. Spent ages looking for a replacement Kentucky Saddler. Many an hour spent roaming the hills for one. I've got Undead Nightmare to come, but I might give L.A Noire a go before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jawillwill Posted 19 September, 2012 Share Posted 19 September, 2012 Becaus of this thread, I've just got back into it having been over a year without playing it. Yes, I'd forgotten justhow repetitve it is in single player, although I really like the online multi-player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oli_BN1 Posted 16 June, 2013 Share Posted 16 June, 2013 Fantastic game. Online multi-player is really good, especially if you have a mic. It's quite social forming a posse, riding around with them doing missions, occasionally bullying random other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
