Definitely not suprised the game was pretty awesome (of what I played). And I;m pretty sure its going to make much more.
not bad for a mediocre game.
just goes to show, name brand is everything these days!
it could be a POS, but as long as it has the halo, COD, R* brand on it than it will sell like its out off fashion!
True, but you must admit the game was good.
it was ok, it was far too R* like.
repetitive, and boring!
every mission had you hopping on your horse, riding somewhere and kicking the daylights out of someone.
a little variety would of been nice!
when are developers going to create every level from scratch, instead of creating 1 or 2 than just using cut and paste?
That’s where you come in, bro.
