also in the minority, really didn't like this. exploration was hampered by using horses. typical rockstar mission design i find infuriating. also the control felt slow and sluggish. on ps3 the game chugged along at a terrible framerate and was difficult to play.

I played for maybe 10 hours but just couldn't get into it. Keep hoping I'm missing something though. Never really liked GTA's game engine either. I find it hard to believe people put it in their top 5. Why?

I do understand what it's like to not enjoy a game that is loved and lauded by almost every other gamer. I could not stand Fallout 3, but almost everyone I know loved it. It's just a matter of whether a game speaks to your interests. I loved RDR, but I appreciate that it's not for everyone, no game is.

What I love most about RDR and the GTA games was the freedom to just wander around doing whatever you want. For me, the missions in those games always come second to just screwing around.

nrallen - The horses were slow and cumbersome. I liked GTA's modes of transport. Shame it has the same, sluggish game engine and fuzzy, blurry visuals.

That's console graphics in a nutshell. But what can we do...

I wouldn't say the 360 version is blurry.

Hmm. I googled "red dead redemption blurry" to kind of prove you wrong, but I see tons of people writing about it being blurry on the PS3 compared to the Xbox 360.

I played it on the 360. I also played GTA 4 on the 360, and I constantly, while driving/riding really fast, have to squint at the screen and I just feel the details lack crispness that I have come to expect from PC gaming.

I have a 46" full-HD TV screen. I dunno, perhaps I am sitting too far away.

I killed 5 grizzly's with the knife. It was one of the acheivements. One of the hardest. I think I remember stabbing, then jumping on my horse and running away to heal, then going back, jump off and start stabbing again!

I got startled pretty good, when your with the dork in glasses going up the path on the horses...and that damn bear jumps out from the bushes. Bastard chopped my body in half lol, I was frozen like that, so had to start over.
