I'm pretty confident that just the main game will be more than enough Rockstar horsies and cowboys for me, so standard will do fine.

Agreed, game looks to be packed with content. Standard version will be sufficient. I'll consider a more complete DLC package if/when it becomes available.

Standard and the PS4 version. I have an X, but if by some crazy chance I want to try-out Red Dead Online one day, I'll have friends who own the game on PS4. Ain't no one who plays on Xbone. Plus I trust that the differences between Pro and X ain't anything that dramatic.

@glots: don't think it's been completely confirmed but there was news out there that the game is targeting native 4k on the x.

X1X thermal design is a bigger deal to me than whether or not they can pull off stable 4K/30. I get really sick of listening to the PS4 turbojet fan.

@frytup: 1000% this! I have both a pro and an X and I would never consider getting the PS4 version despite the early dlc. The PS4 will undoubtedly sound like it’s launching into the stratosphere while running this game.

Special Edition, only because it comes bundled with the X1X. I have no idea what the extras are, shark cards?

Red Dead 2 came out in 2010 and in only one version (per platform).

I would like the extra missions and outfits ...but I hate gameplay boosts, cash bonuses, in-game discounts, free weapons etc. It's basically cheating and breaking the way the game was balanced.

@flippyandnod:

Actually...

...you're wrong ;p

Going to wait and see on a PC version before deciding, myself. Wish they would announce it already but I'm hoping for something in early 2019. Maybe they'll just throw it out in that packed February window just to make stuff fun.

Ultimate Edition for me on PS4, I had €100 saved up for it since the first trailer came out.

The special editions just seem to have extra outfits and camps plus DLC which will probably be cheaper later on once it is actually out (I'm not even going to mention the GTA5 currency that's included because wtf.) Doesn't seem worth it. Standard seems fine.

Standard edition. I've never bought a special edition for any game and never plan to.

My bank account decided the extras weren't worth it, even though it kills a little because I love a good special edition.

I actually actively dislike special editions of games that give you an advantage early on. It ruins the difficulty curve in the early hours. The only time I consider it are games like Shadow of Mordor, where the bonus cosmetics look better than the default.

@doctordonkey: was the preorder bonus for Mordor the cloak outfit? It was a much better look than the default.

I never buy anything but standard. At best I would get collectors if it came with a bunch of cool shit, but not a single one has ever gotten my purchase. Nor do I see it ever happening. Dont get me wrong some of it looks really cool, but just not my thing to collect stuff I dont need. Ryu statue, and that statue they gave out for Cyber Punk 2077 are pretty cool though.

@rorie: I think for R*, there's hope of double dipping by gamers who cave-in and buy the console version in the near term and buy the PC version later on for the better graphics. Not bad business practice if this is their intent, but I won't lie that it irks me a bit.

@berfunkle: I wouldn't be surprised if this is a bit behind their idea of not announcing it yet! But I can wait. I have willpower.

I'm getting the standard edition that comes bundled with the PS4 Pro. Finally upgrading and looking forward to it.

The Ultimate Edition (because I’m an idiot who likes extra content for games that look good.)

I go standard in most cases these days. I only go more if I’m feeling REALLY good about that extra content, or REALLY want to support a game that might have a hard time on the market.

Standard version! If I love it that much, most of the special edition things end up being part of a season pass with games these days. If I don’t love it, then hey, I saved myself a decent chunk of money

Standard I suppose, as I think that's what comes with the Ps4 pro bundle I got.

It was, yeah. Dark Ranger looks infinitely better than the default Talion outfit.

Ultimate, because IDK, I just want the best package available. Plus my son likes playing gta online, so i figured the extra boost will help. Cant wait. 1 more day

Whatever version's available in 2-3 years for $20

Ultimate Edition because I'm a fool and already planning on dipping into Red Dead online with the homies

Can't wait for them sweet, sweet XB1X 4K visuals

Standard and digital even though the physical copy was cheaper by $30. It's a shame the map is only bundled in with the special/ultimate editions.

The side mission content in the special edition to me isn't worth another $30 bucks on top of the $30 I paid for convenience.
