    A friend told me about this game today, its being made by Rockstar Games and set in the wild west. I know that most wild west games that have come out have been horrible but this one looks pretty good from what he told me and from the features that ive seen in the gameplay trailers.

    You can be an outlaw or a sheriff, you can skin animals, hunt for bounties, tame wild horses, and many other things.

    Its multiplayer AND singleplayer but only for PS3 and Xbox 360

    It ships out on 05/18/2010 and if you order from Gamestop they have a special going on right now where you get a $10 off a future games purchase coupon (not stackable with other coupons) and they upgrade you to the Special Edition of the game for Free which includes an extra costume, game soundtrack, and a couple of other things.

    I've been eyeing this game for a while.

    Will probably get it the week it is released, I'll see what reviews it gets
    but I'm pretty pumped. Glad to see such a fresh game in a recent world of
    overly-pumped-full of steroid space marines or "modern" soldiers.

    reason there isn't a PC version is probably cause console folks would hate on us......only 16 players max in that HUGE world online....seriously thats a little fricken small the PC version would probably have at least 64.......but if I get it I'm rolling online PS3.....since I hate xbox pretty much now after seeing how weak it is compared to PS3.

    yeah 16 players does sound pretty low for a huge world :p I imagine it will be pretty empty in most towns if there arent computer controlled npc's to fill in for the lack of players.

    How many players are usually online in other console games though?

    I know it sounds like it would be pretty cool for PC, it reminds me alot of Fallout 3 but being able to play with a controller instead of mouse + keyboard is pretty nice so you wont have to remember a million keys on the keyboard.

    there was a first one?

    Cool, whats your PSN ID so I can add you to my friends list?

    What happened it seemed like there were more Xbox owners on here now I'm seeing more PS3. Well I guess I'll have to go buy another PS3 and cop Socom while I'm at it.

    I did pretty much the same thing, but not quite so late. Have you been playing single player or multiplayer? I've just been doing the single player for the time being (just got to Chuparosa[sp?]).
