heads up for UK players that Argos now letting you reserve Red Dead for store pick up and it is £33.99. Stock may be low though as my local shop showed only 1 copy in stock

Just opened the box - the Rockstar foldout map is awesome. This game + the weather = zero productivity.

So shall we set up a Sturmovik gang on this? I read you can set up a gang with 7 players.

Yep you can create "posse's" and then go hunting etc
Just hope they have my copy later....hadn't arrived this morning and they only had 15 coming today

It seems the Ps3 version is hens teeth at the moment. My Argos had 1 copy at 7.30 this morn and reports are other stores only getting enough to cover pre orders.
Posse thing sounds good, hopefully the animals will put up a good fight

I hope to recieve my copy from GAME/UK this weekend. Love the idea of setting up a posse with you guys.

Too bad there are no aircraft in it. I doubt the wright brothers machine would make for very exciting gameplay though!

I picked up my copy at lunch and the map in the box is massive. There is a lake on there so I am hoping for some paddle steamer action

Spent most of the morning in a free-roam standoff against two other players. The landscape is brilliant and you can almost feel the searing heat. Gun action on a par with Uncharted 2.

Are you going to pull that pistol or whistle dixy

I watched a video review and thankfully there does appear to be a Gatling gun vs Mexican army face off.

I am not sure I have enough playstation time to get the most out of this game. It's looking like a minimum 20 hour main game with god knows how many side bits.
I reckon I will be back on il2 before you can say Clint Eastwood

yeah i was hoping my copy would arive today from amazon and i think it would be great if we set a sturmovik posse up
