  1. Looks stunning!

  2. Boo! :(

    • Not a fan of the 26th of October?

      • It just means that it will be another 6 months-to-a-year before we see the PC release

      • Ah, right. Don’t want it on the PS4, fella?

      • I hardly touch my PS4, it’s been a glorified streaming device for about 3 years now. It’s a shame as I feel I’ve missed out on bits of this gen. I’m stuck in a rut of “I don’t buy PS4 games because I don’t have PS+, and then I don’t buy PS+ because I don’t have any games to play”. Plus the games are so damn expensive!

      • Get Horizon. Don’t need PS+ and it’s just stunning. I finally picked it up on sale and just can’t stop playing it.

  3. 267 days…

  4. Phew, plenty of time to tackle the first game then! Shame it’s still such a long way away but we all know that Rockstar will make it worth the wait. Yeehaw.

  5. Unless it gets delayed again, I’d suggest anyone else planning on releasing anything late this year puts that off until 2019.

    Also, they’d better do DLC for it. And single player DLC too. Although most of the DLC for the last game was for the MP part of it, and the weird success of the terrible online stuff in GTA5 suggests that probably won’t happen.

    It’ll turn out alright in the end, I’m sure. Game of the year possibly? Game of the generation?

    • I’d love to see them do a KKK DLC. You could play as some black dude being hunted by members of the KKK. I suppose it’s pretty relevant at the minute too. They could even do the whole ‘wife is murdered revenge plot’. Imagine being chased by hooded, torch bearing fools on horseback? Pretty terrifying. You could make alliances with the decent folk, who help you take out the Klan from within – exacting bloody Justice in an epic showdown. If anyone can do it with the respect it requires, Rockstar can.

  6. Can’t wait – RDR was sooo good. Trying to limit my exposure so I don’t get too hyped.

  7. Can’t wait for this. Must admit I’m not a huge GTA fan but I loved RDR.
