how much of an RPG is this game? none at all or there are character development options in it?

No character dev. Only clothes that give very small bonuses so it's mainly for looks apart from a couple hard to get sets. And guns, obviously you can get better guns and they all handle differently.

It's basically the same controls that have been in pace since GTA3 so they're never going to change. They're not the best but I've never had any problems using them.

My big problem is the movement. The default movement is always a walk, and requires you to hold a button to run. There's almost no reason to walk in GTA or RDR.

The analog alone could handle the difference between a walk and a run...
 
well its March and no more news about it so I assume this was never going to happen. at least not in March like they were saying...

The Wild West is a criminally underused setting in video games. I might pick this up once the price drops.

Will do the same. I don't say it is overpriced but i need money for something different. It is a must have in my opinion.

Imma punch the next person in the face that calls it that. GTA was just a collection of missions for me. Red dead actually had a story and characters I cared about. It wasn't just Illegal Immigrants turn big time gangster stuff we'd seen lots of times. Please tell me your not basing your buying decisions of Yahtzee.
 
Most overrated game last year. It did a lot of things REALLY well, but it was just plain boring, repetitive and not-challenging. Really the same problem with all of Rock Star's games.

Agreed that the wild west is underused.... and Wild Arms doesn't count. 😛

No, I played it at a friends house. Boring as hell. It's pretty much GTA on horses, which sucks ass because all of the dialog happens while you're riding which is not fun at all in comparison to driving a car.
 
I'll give you that. It kinda sucked if you didn't keep up, the character would just keep on talking, so you missed stuff. But I had the same issue in GTA. Half the time I couldn't hear them anyway due to car noise or their terrible voice acting.
 
CoJ:Bound in Blood was part of the $13 Ubisoft pack on Steam last weekend deal (along with RS:vegas 2, Assassins Creed and FarCry 2).
 
Don't have steam at my house (some internet problems). 2 bad, i was hoping to play a little FarCry 2 shooting this weekend.

I seriously hope you don't form an opinion on games based on Zero Punctuation reviews... D:

You don't need the steam client to view the store.
