Gun doesn't have the attention to detail of a Rockstar game

That depends. Graphics? Facial animations? The amount of polys in blades of grass? No, it definitely doesnt. Attention to gameplay on the other hand? Lack of boring filler? Better missions? More rewarding exploration? More engaging game difficulty? I'll take GUN. It's only marginally better mind you, but that small margin is very much needed.

So, uh, what do you disagree with, sullynathan? Or are you still butthurt and just trying to troll me again? I love how you rated my posts Disagree even when I was speaking to/about you specifically in the Souls thread. Like a kid going, "Nuh uh!"

And if it had been released on PC, thrice?
probably. I had it on Xbox 360 and put in a good 25 hours with no multiplayer because I refused to pay for Xbox live gold. I got the RROD, so I got a PS3 & bought the R* game collection and beat the game again but this time with 35+ hours and a lot of multiplayer and 100% completion. There are a few games I played that were more fun the 2nd time after a number of years. The multiplayer in the game is also really good. Far better than Max Payne 3 or GTA 4. If it came on PC, I might've bought it.

I haven't posted much on the codex in the past 2 weeks so I just rate posts instead. I disagree with the below part
I had more fun with RDR than with GTA V.

You disagree with me that I had more fun with RDR than with GTA V? Are you speaking for me now? Dude, use the rating system right. That's just confusing. If I had said RDR is better than GTA V, I would have known what you were disagreeing with. It takes a few seconds to write out a response. Or just use the Decline or Retarded rating like everybody else. I don't have to then wonder.

I know I'm tempting people to now use the Disagree rating as a joke.

Exactly same style of trailers as for GTA, show some scenery, some characters, call it a day.

But the scenery looks good and characters seem interesting, so I will be in, provided R* stops being a cunt and announces the PC version. I don't want to play this at inferior 30fps.

Dutch! Must be a reference to Trash Van Der Linde.

Seems you play an out-and-out baddie this time.

This new map has less deserts than Scotland.

No gameplay. I find it hard to care. I mean, I know the environments will look good and generally what to expect from their storytelling. What I want to know is what you do now and how it plays. If there are any meaningful improvements.

The game is still ways off so they keep the meaty stuff closer to release.

Unless you prefer the retarded Shadow of War marketing where they show off so much that people lose interest in the game altogether.

Yeah, I know this strategy works for them. It just doesn't do much for me personally.

Advertising a game too early is stupid too. I got bored of The Last Guardian before it was even out, and MGS4 and V started to look crappier as they released more trailers. You can't expect me to be hyped for years. I don't know why people were already so enthusiastic about Death Stranding. That trailer barely said anything at all.

I don't know if Jack is born yet.

Dutch looks 15 years younger.

This game is likely filling in the gang's backstory mentioned at various places in RDR1.

The first game was already a western in 1912, you really can't push that timeline much further. It'd be like a Wolfenstein game in the 60's.

Wait a minute... A crocodile in the Rocky Mountain area? I'm wondering now if part of the game takes place in the south, like Mexico in RDR.
