Not used my 360 since about Jan 3rd. That'll change, but probably not until the Autumn. Impetus is against it because it got 'put away'.

Loving it so far. Tried to shoot a rabbit and accidentally shot the horse I was riding in the head.

So many epic moments so far. Shooting a group of coyotes pursuing a random dude was cool - just did it instinctively and got them all with one shot each. Amazing. The treasure hunting missions are a highlight too - trying to track down the locations appeals to my detective side.

I can't get this game for love nor money.

Sold out in the two game shops in town.

Can't believe there's not been more talk about this. Amazing game. The voice acting and animation that goes with it is perfect. Facial expressions really come across well. I must be nearing the end of the story missions now, but the fact that it references so many other 'stranger' missions that I haven't seen yet means there's probably a lot of gameplay left, and I haven't even tried multiplayer yet. I'm level 10 on treasure hunting, 9 on survivalist, and a bit behind on the hunting and sharpshooting tasks. Looking forward to trying to get 100% completion, which looks tough, and replaying as a badass rather than a goody two-shoes.

Been too busy playing it to talk about it

Think I'm nearing the end of the story missions too which will be a shame.

I'm about halfway through the story I think, in Mexico currently and loving it. Like Belmit there is still so much left for me to do, I've got plenty of game time left. I've barely touched the treasure hunting and the like, not done a single hideout and only a few bounty missions. I definitely want to 100% the single player as well, then move onto the multiplayer. I think it would be an awesome game to get all 1000 achievement points on

I love this game so much. So often nowadays the £50 price tag for a game is justified by the on-line component as the single player part takes 10 hours if you are lucky. As I can rarely be bothered with multiplayer I am getting so much value for money compared to things like MW2 it's unreal.

Belmit · 01-06-2010, 15:20

My biggest laugh-out-loud moment so far; hurtling towards the gate of a fort in a cart full of dynamite, jumping off literally as it exploded and cartwheeling, arms and legs outstretched, face first into the fort wall.

DEAD.

And hours of fun can be had just running around knocking people over/down stairs/over stuff. There's a bounty up north on a snowtopped mountain. Shoot people in the legs and they slide off the narrow walkway.

is this out in shops yet? just been into town and it was 'coming soon' or nowhere to be seen in all shops.

Haly · 01-06-2010, 15:54

Came out the Friday before last

Problem is it's sold out in a lot of shops. For example I haven't seen a copy in my local Game or Gamestation since it came out. Blockbuster were sold out of Xbox 360 on the day and PS3 copies by the next day too.
