So by looking at the suggestions in my last blog (and there were so many, thanks to all who helped me!) I decided to get Red Dead Redemption for my 360. And wow, I have NOT been disappointed in the slightest. Almost everyone I've heard has said they love the game and now I understand what they mean. I ordered it off Amazon, got it in the mail three days later, and popped it right in and played.
 
Nearly everything about the game is awesome (besides the fact that John Marston can't swim). I'm only in Mexico right now, just finished with all the De Santa missions, and the storyline doesn't seem too strong at the moment. From what I've heard though, it gets way better, so I'll be patient. I'm having too much fun doing missions and getting bounties to stop playing it now. Another thing that gets me about the game is how light hearted it can seem at times, but then it hits you in the gut. Like the fact that bandits keep raping and hanging people. Seriously now...is that really necessary? It's for that reason that I LOVE killing bandits in this game and getting bounties. 
 
After I beat RDR, I'm probably going to get one or two more newer releases. I've always been tight with my money, so I figured spending a little wouldn't hurt. Judging from the recommendations I got in my last blog, I'm probably going to get God of War III. Depending on how long that takes me, I might get a newer release, I have no idea at this point. 
 
Anyway, that pretty much wraps up this blog. I'll see you later GiantBomb.
