Red Dead Redemption

[3 Justin 3]

The biggest dick move I have ever seen occurred last night to me.

So I heard a women screaming so I look and see she is tied up being hung by some local bandits, so I approach on my horse, jump off and kill the 3 bandits. Then I rush over to cut the women down who is about to die. She gets up "Thank you Mister!!" then she runs towards my horse at like 30MPH, jumps on, and rides away WITH MY WARHORSE!!! I tried to call him back, he bucked her off, then she got right back on and road away and I couldn't call him back, then the game said "You cannot call your horse until, etc."

STUPID B****!

This is when you whip the "deed" out of your satchel and create a new warhorse.

Nobody told me that kidnapping and Hog-tieing were the same thing.

i had the option of hog tieing someone last night. how does one do that in game?

That just confirmed my decision to stop at EB games on my way home

I had these two guys coming at me on horse back, which was unacceptable, so I lassoo'd the guy off as soon as he passed me, at full speed. Then I dragged him along for like 3 miles, AHAHAHAHA.

I like that the honour and fame ratings are basically sliders that move up and down dynamically. It allows us do gooders to be occasionally petulant without completely screwing up our progress.

If you where the Bandana while killing people, you're honor never goes down.

finally got the lasso, and the first thing i did was get the Dastardly achievement. poor whore

[dobbles]

i played a game of horse shoes earlier. anyone get a ringer yet? i think thats a ps3 trophy. it was fun, but took a while to get to 11 points. i had a nice comeback win against my opponent!

I like to wear the poncho and ride around on a mule all the time. Finally,a game with an accurate portrayal of the mexican lifestyle.

I played iÞ and got completely owned. 11-1. I have no aim or depth perception... I think the more you bet, the harder the challenge.
Stabby Fingers is easy money if you want to tally 5 bucks/game

[dobbles]

i only bet a dollar so it was the easiest level. i was down like 8-2 before staging an epic comeback and winning 11-9.

havent played five fingers yet. its easy?

i dominated at texas holdem against a single opponent but was down about 10 bucks at a 3 person black jack table. i like being able to play the games to just take a break for a few minutes.

Fingers is so easy. Basically it just pattern memory. I haven't found a Blackjack table yet, I'm glad there is one out there though. Ill have to play a few hands after I locate the treasure I'm currently looking for

The next one is some house, and I have no idea which one yet.

i followed the path down but i still don't see any treasure hiding spot. where exactly is it, right on the riverside?

[Meelapo]

I like playing poker in this game.

Anyone take some time to get used to the horse controls? Are you always supposed to hold A (or X for the PS3) or just tap it when you start slowing down? I'm just holding the button now and then tapping the button when I need to speed up. It seems like even though I hold it the horse slows down but not down to a stop. Oh, and the brake button takes some time to get used to.

[FanIn80]

As near as I can tell, you don't have to hold it down. Only when you want to accompany someone else.

I just tap at regular intervals to keep my speed up and then stop tapping for a few seconds when the endurance meter is low. If you have the warhorse from Best Buy, you can get from one place to another surprisingly quickly.

I've gone from one side of the map to the other in only a few minutes of real time.

[Yeah_Baby]

If you're riding with a group you can hold x or a down to match the speed of your companions.

No, I thought it was too, but you know where you're at the camp. Right there go to your map and look at the image, you'll see those 2 split rocks, now get out of the map and look to the edge of the rock you'll see the exact same split rocks. There is a path you can take to go down, and the treasure is along the path.

ya i finally figured it out. i got the 3rd treasure too, it's at a place called Tumbleweed in the basement of a ruined mansion. you have to kill a bunch of bandits to get to it though
