Meh. Let's not be naive. The service guys and gals are getting paid, seeing the world, and they're contractually obligated to go under threat of imprisonment and courtmarshall.  I say, happy day off, everyone

I would agree, but if you've watched anyone play it, 2 hours is pushing it's entertainment value, even as a novelty (which it already is. Did somebody say... WESTERN!?).

That's an opinion, not fact. Some people got tired of that same old mediocre Rockstar sandbox formula a long time ago. I was hoping they weren't going to bow down to all the hype like every gaming website out there. I understand people are playing it, but leave those people be to kick their dogs and push women around in their own time. There are good MP games out there that are a little more than what'll likely just be an entire episode of people screeching in the chat "DO TEH FUNNY GLITCH". "
 What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

The fact is, they have done 2 racing games as their previous TNT's. That is more then enough reasons to switch it up this week

DAMN IT! TOO LATE! Well first come first might serve.
 
If some of you are playing a different game or offline during the TNT, then be fucking damned.

Are you serious? Let's set Red Dead aside for a second. I refuse to sit here for two hours and watch them play a mildly unplayable kart racer where the chat is screaming "Download my mod!" "My track is the best!" "You've GOT to play this track next!" 

I like Modnation Racers, and I'm happy I bought it. That said, it doesn't play especially well, and the best part of the game is creating or downloading custom content, which would not make for a good event. That's not even following suit and mentioning it would be the third racing game for TNT in a row.

Since they seem to want to keep things recent, Red Dead is a fine choice. I'm very sorry you don't like it being picked for this week's TNT. Had it been Modnation Racers, however, I would have decided not to watch. The way I see it, one of us has to be unhappy.

Too bad I'm already getting tired of RDR. They could have done Modnation Racer instead. Even if it was only for all the giant bomb themed cars and mods you would see.

Curses, I have to be at university for an hour either side of TNT so I won't be able to get back in time to enjoy the fun.

I suppose ultimately, if you heavily disagree with the choice of game for TNT - just don't watch it.
 
Also considering that it's probably easier for them to pick and play current releases rather than "relearn"  past releases, it's very unlikely that modnation racers for example will never be played - it could even be next again week's game of choice. 
 
And whilst the decision to not have three different racers be chosen consecutively holds merit, I think it is more likely that RDR was given a couple of weeks to be purchased and both the single player and multiplayer be completed and familiarised with respectively.

@Hadoken101: no i mean the QOTW that was asked on the last I Love Mondays (May 23):  "Film your favorite Lost scene with a video game twist."  There was no video for that yesterday and there still isn't.  I guess nobody made a video...

What's with the bitching over TNT?  I don't like Red Dead either, but so what?  Other people do, let them have their turn.  Go work on a Mod Nation car instead this Thursday night and come back next week.   It's not like there won't be another TNT.  The website does not exist only for your personal entertainment.
