Before we all get super hyped for the game, remember GTAIV? the game that got those epic scores but ended up being ''meh''? Why wont this game be like that?
From what I have seen it looks fantastic and much better compared to GTAIV but GTAIV looked fantastic to.
So what do you think the game will turn out to be like?

While you maybe right in it not deserving a perfect score it still was a great game. My only think i did not like about the game was the shooting and lock on tech was a little broken for it to based on a very realistic engine where your would dead at the drop of a hit if you got hit the wrong way while in the middle of a shoot out. In that case i need the shooting and lock on to be on par with what is happening around me.
Anyway i don't think you should even compare the two these games may have the same sandbox feel but i think RDR will have a very different feel to it. But if you want to compare for me i say the shooting and lock on both looked improve because that is more of a focus in this game. Also the online looks to be improved from GTA in every way, so for me this fixes all the problems i had with gta. But in the end i can say there will be more stuff to do that will be just fun to do, rather then just very cool things in the world that was just impressive to put in the world but not very fun to do such in GTA.
I much preferred GTAIV to its predecessors. This will hopefully be even better than that :)
I can see similarities in both games but I'm sure they are very different! :D
As long as it is like GTA4 I will be happy as long as I don't have to fly that helicopter. Which would be bizarre if I did.
I really enjoyed GTA4 but its distinct lack of variety with the activities, repetitive missions and drop down on character customisation hampered alot of its potential for me. This is where RDR looks to greatly improve upon. Well I can't say for the repetitive missions, but the activities available and the sole reason of exploring the world to actually explore, already looks like a success with its variety.
" I hope it's as good as GTAIV. "Yep, I thought GTAIV was just amazing. I cried a few times during story parts, and I've never actually cried during any game or film (I've got wattery eyes, but no tears). I never got into other GTA games nearly as much.

Also, the only thing similar about this is the engine, the open world (and this has been done so many times it doesn't matter), and the MAIN mission structure. Side mission work differently- there aren't any markers. People ask you to do shit and you either do it or don't. I like that system better than "HEY I'M IN A COP CAR! LET'S SHOOT 'CRIMINALS'!"
If you put a game on a high enough pedestal it will disappoint you regardless of how good it actually is. I really enjoyed GTA IV, but I also went into it with realistic expectations.

It was way to repetitive and the shooting mechanics, fighting etc where no were near as good as they could have been." First off, how the hell was GTA IV meh? "

I loved it. It was the first game I got on my 360 and I played it for over 60 hours.

Well GTAIV is one of my favorite games of all time so if RDR is even close to GTA then I will be stoked.

I never said a lot of people did like it, and I am fine if you do. I never said that you did not have to like the game because I didn't.
Guys, I think we are at the point were we don't have to put ''IMO'' at the end of everything we say. It is pretty obvious that people will disagree on games.

I'd prefer Deadly Premonition to either of them though.
To me GTA doesn't offer all that much variety. Still R* should be commended for their work.

GTAIV is awesome, and RDR looks like the game I've been waiting for since forever, the ultimate Western game and I can't wait to get my grubby little hands on it!
I liked San Andreas a lot more than GTAIV. I was pretty amazed by GTAIV when it first came out, but as time went by I began realizing that most of what I liked about the game was all flash and little substance. But that's just my opinion.
After playing Just Cause 2 I think I'm over "sandbox" games. At least for a little bit. This means I'm not hyped at all for RDR, which is a shame because I normally really like the western environment.

What the crap? Speak for yourself. GTAIV was fantastic. And if RDR is anywhere near as good, I'll be more than satisfied with my purchase.
The shooting in GTA is clunky and slow. It suits old shitty guns better than the modern weapons of GTA. I imagine that a horse is hard to control, kind of like in SotC. The bad controls from GTA4 vehicles will convey that difficulty well. The online will probably be shit just like GTA was.
See, the problem is Neku is generalizing, It's bad writing and it usually turns off the reader. The reader doesn't want to be told what their opinion is or should be. If Neku re-wrote his original post in a more personal manner it would improve his point." @DystopiaX said:

As regards to your topic, neku, I enjoyed Grand Theft Auto IV greatly. The similarity's to Grand Theft Auto IV are getting me excited to play Red Dead Redemption.
