Yes. That's from the October issue that came out last month. Their hands on preview will be in the November issue.

I'm a little bit worried that preview of OPM have old images from gameplay trailer... do they really have new info for us?

Nothing to worry about it was just a tease of what's to come. They probably weren't allowed to show anything new anyways. They confirmed in the articles there's more on the way fresh info, it was only a few pages with the old stuff.

I refuse to get my hopes up about potential news drops and gameplay trailers. I just can’t do it anymore! 

 

Here is David Cross voicing our frustrations.

 

 

isn´t that Zero from GTA SA

I remember being in here the morning of that "Wild West Online" screenshot leak. Seems like forever ago now. We've come so far gentlemen! And have nowhere near as far to go. Truly been a wild ride. Feels good to be this close to the destination.

Yeah same. Game is terrible. I hope when RDR2 releases another company tries to make a western game that isnt trash.

I think the challenge here would be that R* will set the bar so high that it might scare off other companies...

 

This game is going to be a deal breaker in the industry me thinks...

 

Can not wait and just in time for those dark cold winter days...

I feel like we might get something today ... though I'm still unsure whether we'll see the 2nd gameplay video later this week or the next.

At the very least we have OPM UK's RDR2 cover story to look forward to on Thursday, I'm not expecting much from the PU preview to be honest.

Also I can't wait for the official launch trailer, I think it'll be 'refreshing' to see another cinematic trailer after the gameplay videos.

[LeonVegaSuarez]

A month from now we will have already seen a lot of new gameplay and I can say I will be absolute hyped the last week before release. Getting the game as early as possible on release day because I have to work in the evening.

[damienrayemusic]

I think IGN preview today the feels 

[GRANDHEIST]

What if Gta online news is out of the way

I'm 97% convince it's the reason why the GTA online content was published yesterday ..... I mean it makes so much sense especially when it's the 39 last days soooo...

[MrHarlow]

So I'm thinking we might have multiple endings like gta v. 

Do you guys think we might have story choices throughout the game?

OPM UK is officially out next Tuesday, September 25th. If we're to rely on subscribers then...Wednesday might be fruitful, otherwise its just a waiting game.

 

Unlike Edge we know what we're getting. Of course if Wednesday is the day then we could see previews from both OPM and Power Unlimited.

They didn't get the GTA online news out of the way, they just reiterated the bonuses that have been going on all week. Tuesday will still see a GTA update par the course.

 

Also I'm not saying this means anything but this tweet caught my eye...

Brandon is a big RDR fan who has done reaction videos for all the RDR2 trailers on Easy Allies...hmmm.

Probably

I'm possitive that if the entirety of GTAforums colletively imagined that without a shadow of doubt, this would NOT be the week we got news, R* would drop Gameplay Trailer #2 the same instance... We havn't tried with mass reverse-hype psychology have we?

They used to (or even STILL) call it "the Red Dead Redemption for PC". Which is a sacrilege. It must have been a hell of a laugh at R* when that term first appeared.

[SDJ]

Today its been 5 years since the release of GTA V. Damn this 5 years literally flew by. 

Hope R* got something nice for us today!

"This is not the gameplay trailer we're looking for" 

[Jabalous]

Just a little Fun/Good-to-Know thang...

 

The name of Nuevo Paraíso might be inspired by the real-life Mexican city of Nuevo Laredo. 

 

Nuevo = New 

 

A dusty border area .... revolution foment. In that trailer, yeah.

 

It's a candidate to be included in Redemption II in some shape or form. Will Arthur set a foot in there and interact with the banditos? Will one of the banditos dare to say to Arthur "Hey gringo, hablas espanol"?

Cuz previews are coming this week

[Libertad]

Hey all,

 

Can somebody detail what we're expecting in the coming days please? A couple of magazine previews or something? I'm not up to date with what's going on.

 

Any whispers through the grapevine of any new trailers?

 

Cheers!

Previews has everything to do with it... It means promo is going up until release and with hands on previews the strategy is usually to release gameplay to accompany the articles.

Again: Just because previews are dropping does *not* mean R* will pile on.
