This is one of, if not THE most memorable experience I've ever had playing any game ever. Rockstar, make another!
There, now that I have my qualifiers out of the way, I just want to assure you that this game was so worth playing. It was SO worth Rockstar's time in creating. It's just worth any and every penny you spend on it. Story Line? Great. Is it pretty? Beautifully realistic. Is it fun? OH yes. Immersive? I DREAM of Armadillo, Chuparosa, and Blackwater. A part of me died when the game was over, and not just because it ended. That sounds cliche, I know, but if you play it, you'll probably understand my hidden meaning.
You would be smart to buy, and play this game through. And Rockstar, if they have any sense at all (which I'm CERTAIN they do), will create the next installment of this series sooner rather than later. Come on Rockstar, the world is BEGGING to line your pockets with cash if you'll give us the next Red Dead experience!
I rate it a 9.5 only because when I try to rate it a 10, Gamespot tells me I haven't entered a score. What's the matter Gamespot? Is 10 too high for you?
