Brad sure does like gushing over this game. I'm glad Ryan and Jeff don't like it quite as much. I'd rather not see this win GOTY.

Hope this beats ME2 when it comes down to goty. ME2 was so disappointing for me.

I wouldn't count on Vinny and Ryan to hold the same opinion as Jeff. Based on Ryan's reaction to Jeff voting for ME2 I'd say that is at least one vote that may not going toward ME2. Both are excellent game though. 
 
@Regal: I'm sticking to my theory about Ryan. I don't know if he'll go RDR, but I don't think he will pick ME2. I'd vote for RDR to be the winner if I had to choose. RDR edges out ME2 for me due to the story. I felt like ME2 had the weaker end game. "
You're all wrong, it's going to be Deadly Premonition. ;)

Brad is professional enough not to let his personal favorite game be considered as GOTY.  They factor in a game's quality for overall value, enjoyment, and how it compares to other games that came out, as well as appeal to people who like games, not just RTS fans.  SC2 as GOTY makes about as much sense as Madden 10 being GOTY, and Brad knows that.
 
Remember how GTA is always in the running when a new one comes out?  RDR is pretty much the same situation, and has the benefit of doing some really great things with an under-used genre as well, making it an obvious contender for GOTY.
 
As for this DLC, I got it and will enjoy it this weekend while I sit with the lights off pretending the house is empty.

More like Read Dead Redead..tion! Am I right?!
 
 
As for Brad and SC2... He said RDR was his game of the year in some ways. It might've had the best world or the best setting or the best immersion or whatever without being the best game.

Now I know what Vinny will vote for, if only to annoy the other guys, lol.

Man, Rockstar really knows how to give you some bang for your buck. As much as I loved Lair of the Shadow Broker, it would be nice to have gotten some really meaty 5-10 hour expansions to ME2 like this.

I killed a sasquatch and got a achievement called 6yrs in the making. That is worth 5 stars right there taking it back to a San Andreas reference I think. This DLC is worth way more than 10 bucks and I have to give it to Rockstar for releasing it at that price. I hope it sells well and more companies follow in their footsteps. I refuse to buy a 15 dollar map pack and 2 of the maps are old. I never thought of DLC has something that can do "what if" scenerios but I like it and would like to see more games do it. RDR Undead Nightmare is DLC done right.

I've been playing this and it's GREAT. Wish you hadn't cut off those two scenes because there are PLENTY of content in this to give those two away. 
 
RDR is pretty much my game of the year pick as well. It was Valkyria Chronicles II for a while, but this added single player DLC has put it over the top!

This looks like more fun than Dead Rising 2, though it's mostly because of the humor and ridiculousness of it all. 
 
And fuck you. Now I want to play Red Dead so bad. Anyone want to pitch me a copy?

The story missions still brought some variety to the proceedings. The story missions are probably the worst part of the Undead Nightmare, minus the cutscenes. Most of them are just fetch quests.

It wasn't ignored, they said they just didn't get a review copy and therefore didn't have time to make a review. If they made an RDR one late, it would've pushed a lot of other stuff back.

As for the DLC, I'm going to buy and download this right now.

Damn...now I'm jonesing for some RDR.  Anyone know how much of a success it was?  I remember that there were reports saying that there was no way the game could make back its budget or something along those lines.

@SquirrelGOD:  This article from September says they were at 6.9 million and counting.  Their threshold I believe was at least 5 million to start making money so yes I would consider it a success =)
