Thanks, I think Rockstar is a fine company and I enjoyed Red Dead (if only because I could see that it was a pretty good game), but I just couldn't get svcked into it for some reason. I just love games I can get svcked into. Like the Mass Effect trilogy; loved it.
RDR is one of my favorite games of all time. Mainly because I'm a huge fan of Old Western films, mostly the old Clint Eastwood flicks. I spent pretty much my entire life waiting for a western in game form in that style, and Rockstar delivered for me. Anywho, I've been a R* fan since GTA3, so I'm a bit partial to them anyways. xD
If you don't mind playing older titles, might I suggest Never Winter Nights? It's a great RPG made by Bioware, before they sold their souls to sEAtan. Made in the top down dungeon crawler style. I've still got my original copy, as well as the diamond edition.
