9 out of 10 from Edge. Review is up on their website.

Are you sure, that sounds a bit off?

According to the Boomtown review:

As is Marston's allergy to water - c'mon Rockstar, you could have given him some swimming ability rather than insta-death.

It still got 10/10 from them though

Ah, well looking around that does seem to be the case. However you can "wade" through waist deep water and such, and I doubt there are a huge amount of deep rivers.

So it's not too much of a problem.

It certainly should be.

(You could maybe try upping your sharpness a bit if it really bothers you, it may help)

93 on PS3, 96 on 360.

There are more for 360 though I think.

I noticed the current 360 score excludes the Eurogamer 8/10 even though that was a multiplatform review.

It was the PS3 version apparently, they've just listed it as both (quite a few have).

 

[Parky]

I'm really tempted by this game, it seems like one of those games where its best to have it when its first released, playing through with friends. Though i cant afford another £35 squid going on a single game.

That sounds doubtful.

 

[bakes0310]

That sounds doubtful.

I mean, it doesn't sound likely MP would affect your SP status. I mean, you won't be playing the same dude in MP as you do in SP.

I was hoping mine would get shipped today from game but it just went to this stage

Your credit/ debit card has been authorised and your order is now being released for packing.
Funds will not be debited until your order is shipped.

I wonder if anyone has had the shipped email yet.

i love this bit on ign's review

Some of the wildlife is there for more than shooting; getting around is done near-exclusively on horseback (or, if you're unfortunate in your choice of getaway vehicle, on the back of an ass).
