    Maybe it's because I like westerns, maybe it's because this game looks legitimately cool, but I absolutely love how this game is shaping up so far. 
     
    And if anyone asks me if I want to go bowling, I will shoot them, because that's what cowboys do.

    I haven't seen enough gamplay to decide about it. Anytime companies release a bunch of trailers without an equal or greater amount of gameplay footage, I get suspicious.
     
    Maybe the footage is out there and I haven't seen it yet. I guess the fact that I haven't searched for it is pretty indicative of my general apathy towards the game.
     
    If it's awesome, awesome.

    The crime capturing and side quests seem to get repetitive after a while, just from the look of it.

    it sounds promising, but I still think that so far that goes to GTA San Andreas or IV (I know a lot of people didn't like IV, but I thought it was very well done and better than San Andreas in some ways). Definitely picking this up though, what with Rockstar's excellent track record when it comes to making good games.
    And if all the games we've seen so far actually turn out to be as good as they look, I'll end up blowing more money on games than I did in 2009 or 2007, which is saying something...

    I'm trying hard to keep my expectations in check on this. Of course the trailer looks great, but so much of what is impressive is the atmosphere and cinematic feel they've managed to convey in a few minute snippet. If the game can match that, we're in for something very special imo. But it's no easy feat, few games ever have managed it.  
     
    That and i absolutely loved the last game, one of my all time favourites on the last gen machines so i've been waiting patiently a long time for this one.

     As with any oopen world game. Comes with the territory. But how you've managed to come to that conclusion from a trailer is quite something.

    @Shookems: Wow I'm really excited for this some more. I liked the bassy intro, felt like some cool Inglourious Basterds music, kinda anachronistic.
