    YES YES YES YES YES! (I can't say yes enough).
    For fans of old Clint Eastwood films (e.g. The Good Bad and the Ugly), Sam Peckinpah (Wild Bunch) and Sergio Leone (Fistful of Dollars, Good/bad/ugly and other Eastwood classics) this can't come soon enough.

    While I was really hoping for a sequel to Neversoft's GUN, Red Dead was an underappreciated gem. Now a next gen version using the GTAIV/Table Tennis engine = MIND MELT!

    Well that kills the rumors/hopes that Red Dead Revolver would be the secret R* exclusive on PS3. I wonder when they'll come forward with that.
