Red Dead Redemption 360 update resolves system link MP

Rockstar’s released a new update for Red Dead Redemption on Xbox 360, which fixes an issue with the game’s multiplayer mode.
The tweet from the firm goes as this:
“Title update for Red Dead Redemption on Xbox 360 is now live, resolving issues with multiplayer via System Link.”
The apparent $100 million-costing, San Diego-made, best game ever according to some reviews, is out now in the US for PS3 and 360, with a UK and European release on Friday.
It gets its first DLC in the form of co-op and more next month.

Johnny must be wondering what all the fuss is about a 6 year old game.

How about Rockstar you make a fucking patch for the PS3 version of RDR?
Just a little hint.

Nice…..What about the poor ps3 owners who are still stuck with a sub-hd version won’t a patch fix that and make it on par with the superior version on xbo360 lol.

What about the poor console players playing sub-HD games who blast away at the Wii for having sub-HD games?
Ooops.

One thing that Red Dead Redemption on Xbox 360 has proved to me is that xbox 360 is in a league of it’s own when it comes down to graphics.

@ 8 – don’t feed them, maybe they’ll just fuck off back to N4G if they don’t get the attention they so desperately crave.

I’m on the fence with this one. It looks fantastic and obviously the reviews confirm, but something about westerns that just don’t excite me.

I only just realised today that I hadn’t preordered this…I was convinced I had! Now I’m going to have to wait till Friday/Saturday to play it instead of tomorrow

@9: Nice of you to assume I’m among some N4G trash. I suspect the feeling would be mutual, if I was inclined to insult back. But I’m not. Maybe that’s why I’m not hip.
As it stands, it simply amuses me that people go bonkers over a game being “sub-HD”. That’s me calling out the general trend of criticizing the Wii – a trend also present here, by the way – when their “next gen” consoles are also in the same boat. Because if people can only appreciate games through their high-tech visuals, it’s certainly them who need to “fuck off” somewhere else and let the medium grow based on its natural merits. RDR is a fine game, whether it’s running on 1080, 720 or what have you Xp.

God of War III didn’t prove anything the only thing it proved was it runs at 20fps and 7hrs game-play = massive failure.
Uncharted is nothing new Gears of War 2 surpassed that ages ago. Like i said ps3 is not all that when it comes down to graphics.
u ps3 owners started this sub-hd bull crap………remember alan wake?

@ 13: I apologise sincerely – I misread your comment and assumed you were a platform fanboy, but it’s evident you are in fact a lucid commentor. Sorry for any offence caused.
We’ve had a bit of a rash of annoying X360 and PS3 fanboys here of late and quite frankly I wish they’d take their diatribes elsewhere.

@Gerrit: No problem, people get into heated arguments once in a while over videogames. We love them, and it’s understandable
I was a bit confrontational too, but this has to do with what I said before regarding that attitude.
And no offense, obv. Hope I didn’t come off as an offending git as well
I’ll never understand fanboyism, though. It’s like gamers’ dreams went from playing videogames to become unpaid PR mouths for companies who don’t even know they exist :/

As pointless as this argument is, yes I agree Gears was ground breaking graphically for it’s time and no other game this gen has broken as much ground since (on consoles) BUT it has been surpassed by U2, GowIII and even matched by MGS4, so don’t bring your xbox superiority crap here because I have both consoles and trust me the PS3 is no slouch.

I took the day off work yesterday and put in about 12 hrs into this game. It’s one of the few games that I feel is fully worthy of my money. Only played the single player so far. I was shocked at how nice the graphics are. The character models, including the horses are amazingly detailed. (360 version)

@22. you are a sadist telling me that…i´ll have to wait for my uk preorder (i´m berlin based) until friday or even saturday (which would be really bad, cause i visit friends in the morning for breakfast and then i´ll go for a walk wit da dog with them and then i have to – and want to – go to a little vernisage of a arty friend of mine – i´ll return home late – and probably will be too drunk to play – but the worst part is that all day long i will know that the game is waiting for me – this is too much to take for just one man)

how is it hard to read a guys post once and not like his opinion and never read his post again when you look at the name of the commenter?
Don’t let people get to you, it only shows you are weak minded
