Exclusive New Red Dead Redemption Screens: People of the West (Part One)

Posted on February 25 2010, 1:00pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Games

The American frontier and its promise of freedom attracted people of all kinds: entrepreneurs and outlaws, priests and prostitutes, vagabonds and gentlemen. Some made a home for themselves on the land, some found wealth at the end of a mineshaft, and others died penniless and friendless, or at the end of a gun. 

Today, check out some exclusive new screens of just a few of the unique characters you're likely to meet in the world of Red Dead Redemption.  Also look for the all-new People of the West feature section of the official Red Dead Redemption website, launching alongside a new Weaponry feature section later today.

 
Jonah
One of Marshal Johnson’s deputies.  Lazy, sarcastic – and the hero of every tale he tells.


Zhou
A romantic Chinese slaughterhouse worker, with some unfortunate habits.


Luisa Fortuna
A 19-year-old teacher and revolutionary in Mexico. 


Nigel West Dickens
A flamboyant travelling salesman with a unique line in miracle cures.


Nastas
A Native American unsure about the joys of life on a reservation.

            Mine too but I am keeping my fingers crossed because I think they said something about outdoing or improving on GTA4s multiplayer (I’ve slept since I read it) so there is still a glimmer of hope for some kind of co-op or free roam multiplayer however small it may be.

              it's not going to go out one vercion pc. his game is very good but I want it for PC. I also hope to launch for PC. I hope not to disappoint users in gta 4 pc. me in the special. I do not like consoles. the graphics are of poor quality on consoles. do not compare to the graphics card PC of today.

                    I don't know... after reading the IGN article "Red Dead Redemption: Rockstar Next" by Martin Robinson my hopes for free roam multiplayer have been dashed a bit. And I'm just gonna drop my hopes for co-op because I don't think it's gonna happen. I think Rockstar has all they can handle trying to incorporate the multiplayer "experience" especially since the release for this game is just around the corner. None the less I am still VERY, VERY excited for the release of this game! :)

                        @ EL_PUT0

                        If you don't want to log in to the social club just click on one of the words above the box you enter your email and hit tab then enter your password and hit tab 3-5 times until you see the blinking cursor in the comment box then type.

                        @ Rockstar

                        I know I and many others ask about this on every topic but please let us know one way or the other about a Limited Edition in the U.S.A. We wouldn't ask if this game wasn't amazing and we weren't willing to spend the extra money to get all of the awesome content for the game. I have only bought a collector’s edition for very few games but definitely want this one if it is offered. This game is gonna rock.

                          This game is 2010 GOTY!
                          I can't wait :P

                            I think I'm going to take a really long nap until this is out, I just can't wait. Time to schedule some vacation time for the big release day!

                              All in all it looks good, but I still think that the grass could be a lot better. Small plants and grass are definitely the weak points of RDR's graphics.

                                I had the same problem El_Puto, I looged into the social club and it was fine after that.

                                Can`t wait for multiplayer news after reading what D.Houser was saying in todays IGN article. I`ll get me digital passport.

                                    Looks good. Glad to see the historical accuracy of American Indians (that's the proper term you know) being on reservations. Not that I'm pro-reservation or anything... just thanks for sticking within history. Always reminds me of the Battle on the Was**ta.

                                          Jonah reminds me of Sam Rockwell for some reason.
