[GOTY]Red Dead Redemption

[Kyo]

The limited edition is a free upgrade for pre-ordering at gamestop, the UK collectors edition is about the same price.

Also, Gamestop is offering a $10 credit online for pre order customers.

Looks like Amazon didn't like Gamestop copying their $10 credit and upped the ante to $20 gift card for preordering through them. Pretty awesome considering now by getting RDR and Mario Galaxy 2 I can get $40 off the next game I purchase. Can't wait for this game :D

Seems we should have no problem finding a good group to play with.

Anyone besides myself attending a midnight release?

Ill probably spend that night getting acquainted with the game and be ready to possee up.

Ya I'll be on, I'll hit you up in a PM or something and we'll GET IT ON

[Kwijiboe]

I hope we get a cell phone so in-game characters can call us for dates.

[Kyo]

Telegrams.

[Plow]

I hope we get a cell phone so in-game characters can call us for dates.

Only if they're the easiest sluts in the world and call you every 8 seconds.

Torn between gamestop special edition with $10 gift card, or amazon with $20. Quick question to anyone who got the gamestop one, does it come with free overnight shipping or do you have to pay extra?

If you want it on the 18th it's a little over $5 for shipping. If you aren't worried about getting it release day though, there is a free shipping option of 4 to 7 days I believe. From past expeerience, every time I've chosen that option my packages have still arrived in 2 days, but I may just be lucky.

Edit: Just noticed you asked about gamestop shipping. What I wrote is for Amazon shipping.

Has been a firm date of the 18th for almost a month now.

As long as your are not in Kansas, Kentucky, New York, North Dakota, or Washington Amazon does not charge sales tax. Without sales tax Amazon with overnight shipping is cheaper than Gamestop with standard shipping.

It's only Gamestop that offers the extra missions and soundtrack though, isn't it?

[Kerk]

does the limited edition come with a different cover art?

[Kyo]

Correct.

Also, Im unsure if the packaging will be different on the limited edition, Im sure something will be noted of the fact on the GameStop version.

I'm still not sold on the GS version. The $20 GC is nice and with Prime I get free release day shipping. If I went GS I'd pay an extra $5 in taxes. So really it's not 10 vs 20 but 5 vs 20.

I think I can live without the extra content for now and it'll be available at some point anyway.

[Rokku]

I'll probably be getting it at midnight too, provided my wife will let me.

It isn't every day you get gems like this paragraph in reviews/previews:

Take, for instance, the sorts of things you can do with a lasso. You gain this little tool during a mission that teaches you the ins and outs of breaking a wild horse, but you can aim the rope ring at people, too. I went to the saloon and found a prostitute, hog-tied her and then slung her over my shoulder to take for a ride. She didn't take too kindly to this treatment, screaming out obscenities like, "There are other ways to a girl's heart, you ass!" along the way. I responded by leaving her on a train track.

or

During my travels I did everything from uppercutting a cow with a bowie knife to killing so many lawmen as they entered a saloon that they were stumbling over their predecessor's body pile.

Fuck yeah man.
