Looks awesome; if only the disc drive on my ps3 wasn't broken... Anyone know if its gonna be sold on PSN?

You were fairly taken with it then?

Out of interest, did you ever get the feeling you were playing GTA? I had that problem for at least the first 10 hours of Fallout 3 - I just kept feeling as though I was playing Oblivion, and it damaged the immersion quite a lot.

Tbh honest, the more I play this the more I get the feeling this is more like Bully than GTA in play style and antics you get up to

Doubly honest?

I don't know really... I don't mind it being reminiscent, it's just when it's so similar that you keep thinking you're playing the wrong game.

A bit like when I was playing Grit 2. Oh wait, no, Dirt 2. It's basically GRID with dust.

I love the Wild West so I've been waiting for a game that gets it right. It's only really like GTA in the amount and variety of quests. Doesn't feel like it at all really

I didn't think I would be able to get into a Wild West game till I fired up a copy of Gun that was gathering dust only to find that I actually enjoyed the setting, quite a fair bit.
Got a copy of this due tomorrow

I already prefer it to GTA4 the Wild West is awesome.
