Its the Deadly Assassin Outfit. Which can be unlocked in the game as far as i'm aware.

Not long now

Info:

John Marston’s “Deadly Assassin” outfit causes your Dead Eye meter to regenerate at twice the speed. With more Dead Eye, you have more time to place each shot with total accuracy, making you the deadliest gunslinger in any fight.

^^Yes saw that today, FWIW OPM is a pretty reliable source for review scores, regardless of its affiliation.

Well, RDR is also available for 360, but yeah they can be biased at times.

What console are you getting it on scutch?

 

[seb]

pre-ordered.

epic.

 

[Scutch]

360, mate. Basically prefer achievements to trophies, and XBL to PSN.

The game will be identical on both systems, I'd imagine.

Thats a lotta copies to keep under your bed..

 

[valver lad]

It's leaked online now so expect some spoiler's here and there.

 

[Spiezels]

Just watched all the vids for this, looks incredible.



Anyone know anywhere good to pre-order other than shop-to, they require you to have 1st 2 orders sent to your billing address, but i'm never there so not any point.

Just a few quotes from guys who have the game (bloody pirates...) :

I had to come on here and post about how good the thunder sounds on this game and just the sound in general. The makers of games are really stepping up in terms of how good games sound these days, if you aint got 5.1 you dont know what your missing.

Oh and i played a second game of poker and it told me about the dice and card cheat suits but when i went to the tailors it told me he had just been shot and the shop wont be open for another 5 days

Great game this is, i can't see me going back to finish Alan Wake now

Quick draw? As in a duel? You just wait until it says draw or goes into Emissary mode, then push up and your crosshair moves up and you pick where you want to shoot, my first duel I didn't know that so lost, 2nd duel I hit him 5 times with the bullets starting at his groin and going up in a line to his head, 3rd and 4th duels I won by shooting his gun out of his hand, which is very cool and also earns you extra honour/fame

All the stuff that was so wrong about GTA4 is fixed in this, loads of things to do, loads of places to go, really enjoyable just roaming around, hunting and doing stuff that pops up such as rescue the damsel being attacked by coyotes or help the lawman with the escaping prisoners etc. etc. Just experienced my first thunder storm, incredible, everywhere goes dark, thunder and lightning, rain is pissing down and you see droplets on the screen, if you look up at the sky the screen gets covered in rain, it's so heavy the ground is being covered in pools of water

Shooting is a lot like GTA4 but a bit more refined, still have default pistol/rifle so they're not massively accurate/powerful but they're both very different and should be selected appropriately depending on your hunting/killing targets

I got caught cheating at Poker a few times, insta-duel time.

Played until 4am, did not notice the time flying by, so many things to do and see, so many distractions. Love It.

However, I'm waiting for my PS3 copy to arrive, and will have to start all over again.

Cool touch- Riding at night, I see ahead of me a horse and cowboy coming.

The fella pulls over in the middle of nowhere, so I slow my horse and turn back to see what he was up to.

I then see him pissing up a rock.

Awesome

I played this for 2 hours yesterday and only did 2 missions

I was just riding around killing animals i got killed a few times after collecting loads of stuff which made me go back and try and get the skins ect again because you lose them if you die (and i lost something to do with a new outfit). I got killed by a pack of Boars and something that looked like a f**king Leopard i also got chased by a pack of Wolves and had to run like lightning

 

[JoeyD]

Pre-ordered this!

^ From the sounds of it, it's going to be Mint!

 

[valver lad]

Agree with the above comments, tis a very good game..

 

[seb]

justin.tv feeds are being taken down so quickly LOL

 

[TimR26]

Just pre-ordered the limited edition from ShopTo

 

[Spiezels]

Looks soooo good

 

[Rasclart]

Looks immense. Want to finish Alan Wake first. Plus I leave for Italy on Saturday for my wedding So hopefully the copy comes on Thurs so I can get a day or two in.

 

[Scutch]

Yes, our wedding is going to be super.

<3

 

[Rasclart]

It will be mint. I just got delivery of my crotchless Panties xxx

 

[Oggy997]

Pics?

 

[David]

played it, really not impressed, i mean the graphics are decent but it's a slow start, and riding the horse is a pain in the ass. i mean i'm not really into westerns myself anyway but i went into it with an open mind. i gave it a good hour and a half, done the first couple of missions... don't think it's for me. happier with alan wake.

 

[oska]

You didn't like Fallout 3 ether, which means this will be awesome. Maybe steer clear from free roam open world games lol.

 

[Rasclart]

Pics?

Ask Scutch I will be a married man soon!

 

[sneeks]

I'm thinking of buying this.

 

[Cookie]

I may get it.

Can you kill everything in sight?
