Unbelievable, really. See you all in the next 5 years when we're anxiously waiting for gta 6. With how quickly time is passing, it should be here in no time.

As much as you are correct I'm gonna deal with that when it comes. I love GTA and all but not as much as red dead. So for me at least honestly idc about VI right now. It's red deads time to shine finally

Agreed. I'm super-pumped for RDR2. RDR surpassed every game I played last year and I can't wait to lose myslef in this world and finally take a small break from real life. The next gta is always far back in the corner of my mind though, it's just how I am. Especially the reveal and first trailer which is just the best feeling i can think of. I just think it's fair to bring up V for it's anniversary and next month (!!!), it will be red dead's time to shine,

I hope the horse mechanic from rdr return i don't want to keep holding X to ride fast like the witcher 3 it was boring and i always use fast travel to reach the destination 
in rdr i don't use fast travel i keep riding and it was amazing you feel like you putting effort and feel you are the person(john) who ride

Like gta 5
I keep riding the bike all day in los santos and it was so fun (my opinion)

Nah tapping A constantly was just annoying and made aiming  & shooting on horseback more cumbersome.

Reminds me, God I hope they have a wide variety of control options at launch. Having one of the bumpers bound to sprint is amazing for combat, and hopefully it'll translate to horses too (so bumper to make the horse sprint). I cannae take X/A to sprint any longer.

I like it tbh, made it feel like I had to work the horse to make it do what I wanted. 

 

Besides when aiming/shooting the horse would automatically follow the path at a decent speed anyways, no big deal.

For you yes for me not i hope rockstar add the possibility to change it 

Holding X/A or keep Pressing X/A just for all people to enjoy how they want it to be

Anyone else hoping that their local retail store will have an Midnight Launch event?

A precise headshot from a Bolt Action Rifle should take care of those guys...

Thats great!:D I'm the same exact way... Always anticipating the next thing. It started when I was a little kid like stressing about ok so we are here now what are we gonna do next? Tomorrow? The week after? Just always anxiously waiting on what's next... Which is why I tell myself idc about VI right now cause naturally I'll be so curious about it regardless. I'm gonna be so in the moment with RDR2 just soaking everything in allowing myself to be arthur in the wild west. Also damn time zones... Is it really 5 years already?! I think 12 am est is when it will be September 17th for me but regardless, happy birthday GTA V

Most major game retailers should be having one, at least in the U.S.

The last two weeks of September are gonna feel longer than the whole of October man. Least we'll have some new games out at the end of September and in October to play, but from now till then it's pretty quiet for new games.

That is true lol least we got hands on previews to help the feeling. What games are you playing right now?? Pretty sure you got spider-man right? And yes it's gonna be so relieving when it's October I swear

I may have platinum'd Spider-Man by the end of the weekend it came out. 

 

Other than that, not much, waiting for the new Fifa as is tradition for a British football fan.

I hope so, but I'm in NZ and we're a day ahead so I don't know how that would work.

Aye, but for me each time Rockstar release a new game I just lose complete interest of any upcoming titles...the R* affect I guess.

[luke73tnt]

I have a feeling we’ll get official news from R* sometime after Wednesday

[VercettiClarke]

I think im sorted until the 26th, just picked up the witcher 3. First time playing it and already blown away

I felt the same for the whole month of August... Almost didn't even wanna play spider man the RDR2 trailer was so damn good. But fast forward to now I'm really glad I played spider man. It has taken my attention when I play it I don't drift off (as much but I still think of red dead) amd spider man being my child hood hero and having an identity of him, like I as a person wanna help people through music, and I have kids looking up to me and etc. You get the point. Spidey impressed. The characters were lovable with an emotional story and the gameplay was simple yet advanced and tactical\skill based. Amazing game. Tomb raider also pulled me in with the jungle... The animals man. If you play it you'll know what I mean but the animals are so well done it's very immersive and makes me think of and appreciate RDR2 even more, considering how immersed tomb raider had got me in it's first hour..

My third favorite game of all time, enjoy. Did you pick up the DLC too?\ what spells do you have so far?? I really love Igni and Aard

[Synthetic_Soul]

I'm hopelessly stuck between wanting to do one last play through of RDR just as a refresher so I can possibly pick up on more references in RDRII, and not wanting to get into a game like RDRII before its launch that way I'm not "used" to it by the time I play it. 

 

So so for now I think I'll stick to spider man and running around with a revolver in far cry 5 pretending I'm playing RDRII.

This right here.  I love the  AC series, but I have zero interest in Odyssey due to higher priorities.  Outlaws for life.

I think I would normally show a considerable amount of interest in Fallout 76..  But nope.. Not this year.

[BLOOD]

Atleast unlike Blizzard, we still get a game every now and then from R* and not a focus on online gaming forever. And Blizzard have 4,000 employees and R* have 1,500

Whenever I think about RDR2 I get pumped with adrenaline because I’m so excited but then I get stressed because it’s not out and that causes me to get a headache. Anybody else like this?

[Synthetic_Soul]

Question for those who love Easter eggs: what's the one Easter egg you'd like to see? 

 

It it can be something from RDR or anything you want.

 

personally id love to find a cabin in the snowy mountains and when I walk inside I see coffee and blood everywhere. Bodies all over the floor and a lady hanging from the rafters.
