Yes, it is awesome. Although the multiplayer could be a bit better. But its great.

That's a bummer.

Just started playing this game. I love it. So awesome.

^ Yup. I'm about 15 hours in and it's one of the best games ever.

If anyone remembers, can somebody post the controls for dueling, the damn tutorial went by so quick, I still manage to win my duels, but knowing what the f--k to do would be nice. I can't believe that the instruction booklet doesn't have it and there isn't even a menu in the game to friggin find it. If there was one thing to gripe about, it would be this Otherwise the game is pretty spectacular. Oh yeah, PS3 controls please.

Yeah. Not only is there no instructions about the gun dueling, but there is no instructions for the horse taming as well. Your right that the tutorial goes by really fast. I did my first gun duel and somehow, I was able to shoot the gun out of the guy's hand which was pretty freaking awesome but hell if I remember what I did.

^You hit it on all counts bro, haha.

I enjoy skinning animals in the game. Is that wrong?

Dude, don't feel bad. For the most part I try to do the right thing, but the serial killer in me likes to sit in the bushes way out in the countryside, in the middle of the night I might add, and lasso people right off their horses as they go by. I then proceed to hogtie them, drag them back into the bushes, shoot them in the back of the head, and then rob them. So yeah, there's nothing wrong with your addiction either, haha.

I beat Redemption like two days ago. If you haven't already got it, don't hesitate. It's marvelous.

Some whore in Mexico just made me laugh until I just about peed myself.

"Anything of yours you wanna stick into something of mine?"

Ok I just can't imagine the voice actress being able to say this with a straight face.

This game fills my need to hurt helpless people and animals.

I just got it!! i'm gonna try and play a little tonight!

That's award-winning dialogue if I ever heard. Awesome.

So apparently if you shoot the gun out of their hand in a duel it's worth more honor. Not that I actually fully understand dueling but still.

I completed Mexico tonight. I'm rank 8 survivalist, rank 5 hunter, rank 9 treasure hunter, and rank 7 sharpshooter. I needed to complete mexico so I could move up in he lower ones.

I'm getting OCD about this game. I want to get the Legend of the West outfit.

I suck at treasure hunting. Any advice would be awesome. As I also want to get want the Legend of the West outfit.

I've only just started the treasure hunting. I was focusing on the sharpshooter/hunting challenges. I spent a ton of time on the first one, thinking that I was trying to find a spot in the distance. But once I realized I was making the map too complicated it got easier to find them.

Hunting advice/spoiler alert

Spoiler:

I'm a huge cheater when it came to the treasure hunter stuff. I just googled it and watched the you tube videos.

I DID just finish off the Survivalist missions though. Once you do that all the herbs you gather are immediately turned into a tonic.

I got so excited over finally seeing a beaver that I forgot I had my buffalo rifle armed and disintegrated it. I haven't seen another one since.

Glad to hear the survivalist missions turn into something - those are my least favorite.

Have you reached the point where you go to Marston's ranch? There is a stream in between the ranch and the woods-y settlement place that had all sorts of beavers running around.

[insert beaver joke here]

ive been playing it and howly shit i can see myself getting lost in this game - so far so good but i keep killing law enforcement people - out in the wild - i cant tell the bandits apart lol

I've done that once or twice. It's kind of cool but I don't understand the gun duels at all.[/quote]
