So, what say you lifestream.net? Contender or pretender? I'm ready to start my posse, hunt cows, cross the border and screw around in Mexico.

It's going to be one of the bestsellers of the year, I'm sure. However, I don't think it'll become as big as a title as GTA, seeing that that one's less romantic and more actual and some other reasons I can't formulate atm.

But I wants it, :monster:.

One thing I do fear about this game though is that it might be grind. Think Borderlands. Of course, I could be wrong - I'm pretty sure the missions will be more original than the common 'Kill X of Y' things.

But I don't know if that will still be the case in multiplayer.

I wants it so bad suh

Multiplayer alone looks awesome, and I love old western action movies with badass protagonists.

No PC release? I'll probably have to hire it on the ps3.

I think it's safe to assume these days that there will be either no PC release, a PC release six months after the release, a shitty PC port, or all of the above.

i.e. I need to get my holiday moolah and that raise and spend money on a new TV and media center PC and various consoles and games and waste all my free time on that :monster:.

Its bound to be probably as good as GTA4, and I probably should have bought GTA4, but I didn't, so I dunno if I'll buy this one either :P.

People are saying this game has 2x the landmass of GTA San Andreas.

Holy shit.

Holy shit.

Landmass is actually pretty easy to create (just fire up Terragen and have at it). Filling it with enough content without it being boring, that's the difficult part :monster:. GTA:SA had 3 major cities, each one filled with buildings and the like. I expect this game's landmass to be made up of empty hills and the occasional settlement, camp, and such things. So it'll be easier to create such a landmass.

Also, Oblivion and Morrowind were larger, :monster:. I think. 16 square miles for the latter, against 4 for GTA:SA. If I'm getting the figures right. Of course, you can move a lot faster in the latter, so I might be completely off here.

Of course, 2 times (wouldn't that be 4 times, perhchance, in total surface?) will feel like a lot more if you don't have fast cars and such to cross it with.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious there chief.
 
I hate rockstar for the fact they make games that look badass, I love everything they show, everything looks awesome, but then when I actually play them I loose interest insanely fast

^. I had to struggle through San Andreas, eventually going into mission grind mode, and didn't even finish IV.
