apples vs oranges? good game beats bad book and vice versa...

Aren't books always better than the games?

Books always win, but y'know, not everyone thinks so.

Everybody experiences the game in a different way. Whereas the book can only be experienced in one way, unless you look too deep and too hard.

lul

Yup hes a d**k.

lol, that would depopulate 1870s USA totally and spill into Mexico and Canada...  

[Vikki Stardust]

How many ladies have been tied to tracks and left to get run over?  

[GamerChik240]

lol they never said but I'd guesstimate over 1.2 million  

[Sir Kyle Aziz]

I probobly put half of that cougar kill ratio in.  

[GamerChik240]

really? what a waste of time.. I put a kink in the 132 million murders as well as hunting U.S soldiers.. funner game than hunting wolves.

that first town you are in when you get to Mexico, the one with the old guy who teches you s**t. from the balcony of the police station there i held off against the army for almost two hours until my ammo ran out in all my guns and i had to jump down throwing Molotovs and Dynamite while ammo-grabbing, i died about five mins later when they stormed inside...

i reckon i must've got a chunk out've the Mexican Army...  

[GamerChik240]

when your going south towards mexico go left instead of right ( right towards that old guy)) you'll find a fortress me and 3 other posse member held that from other players, law dogs and the mexican army. for 1 hour. I don't even remember how big the bounty was when a full posse broke in and started killing my team.. I had to stop guarding the door ( in a secure tower to help them and everyone else swarmed... the horror  

[Sir Kyle Aziz]

Cougars are not wolves, they're the most dangerous animal in the game.

An I was exagerating about that cougar thing but in the first two weeks the game came out I certainly killed an aweful lot of them because of cougar country cabin.  

[Hoxtalicious]

******** cougars and that ******** cabin. I told my brother to hide in there when hunting those but no, he had to go and be stupid, he got gnawed by them twenty times before he got the clue. Me, I got smart after sneak attack two. When I need to pass through that territory I do it at full speed, not stopping for anything. What, you fell off your bucking horse? Good, slower food for them to pounce on.

As for killing lawmen, I prefer the mansion in Mexico with the gates and the two towers. Especially good in free roam as there is only one way in, with no way to scale those walls. Just be careful of snipers in the town down below.  

[Hoxtalicious]

Aaaaaand the 360 is dead.  

[Caleidah]

Red Ring?  

[Hoxtalicious]

Yup, with no warranty left.

Just nine more days though until the release of the 360 Elite slim. gonk

I was planning on getting one anyway and giving my old Elite to my nephews and niece, who are a bit poor.
