I would prefer getting it on PC but with no announcement, games being so expensive now, and the lack of pre-order sales for PC games I'm just going to stick with getting it for PS4 for $50.

Is the Pro worth it? I've been with the original since day 1, and upgraded the HD to 1 TB. Seems fine for me. Curious if the Pro is a must have?

Anyone else that pre-ordered from Amazon get an email saying the delivery of their order will be delayed?

Yup. It would be nice if that gave an idea how delayed it will be, but I'm going to be busy that weekend anyway so it's not a big deal.

I received the same email but my order status still says arriving Friday, October 26th. The email didn't provide any other details. Maybe they are delaying it for those that purchased it for very cheap a year ago?

Got the email, went and looked and it said delivery was Nov 1-7. So I changed from free shipping to 2 day shipping for $5 and now it says will arrive Oct 26. $5 well spent.

At the end of the day it comes down to disposable income and what the extra couple hundred dollars mean for you. Do you have a 4k TV? If so then it could be worth it for enhanced visuals. If not it's harder to recommend.

That isn't entirely true, even without 4k you will get improved and more stable frame rates and for a game like RDR it could mean the difference between immersion and stu stu stutter gameplay. With the release of the RDR2 PS4 pro its definitely worth it, basically the game for free and if EB has a promotion trade in the old one.

Won't know for sure until digital foundry releases their benchmarks and comparisons.

That's only for select games. If you don't have a PS4 then I think a PS4 Pro is a no-brainer but if you already have one I don't think that a small handful of games with a little bit better framerate is worth it if you only have a 1080p TV.

I pre-ordered this game from Walmart two E3's ago and almost forgot about it seeing all the other games shipped almost a year ago. It still shows up at $50 when I log in as not shipped (haven't checked since the weekend). Anyone else getting it for a better price than that?

Better than $50? In Canada? Did you bump your head?

Except the select games is not a handful. Last count was over 140 games and 3 out of 4 released games this year benefits from playing on the pro due to frame rate increases and supersampling. Boost mode on the ps4 pro also improves frame rates in games not optimized for the ps4 pro so that fills the gaps of the games I didn’t include above.

Yes not every single game will see a benefit but saying a small handful is grossly exaggerated.

And?

You’re asking if anyone got a better deal than $50, which is why I think you’re crazy. $50 is as good as it gets if you’re lucky enough to get it for $50.

I don't understand how game companies are still pulling the special edition crap with exclusive content at release. DLC is fine to extend the life of a game but I haven't even got the game yet and you are already trying to squeeze more from me?

The Red Dead Redemption 2 Special Edition Includes:

Exclusive content for Story Mode, including a bank robbery mission and gang hideout
Dappled black thoroughbred
Talisman and medallion gameplay bonuses
Gameplay boosts, cash bonuses, and discounts
The Nuevo Paraiso Gunslinger outfit
Free access to additional weapons lol free
Exclusive Special Edition printed map

Just pre-ordered. Anyone else going to a 9pm Thursday night release? I am doing the EB Southcentre one.

I initially thought about avoiding the rush and just getting it the next day..But with the incredibly massive size of the game, it will probably need all night Thursday to install so I can actually play it on Friday, given I have the day off. Getting fired up!

I am at the mercy of Amazon but for $50 I can't complain, hopefully it comes Friday.
