Well the embargo has just lifted on the Multiplayer aspects of Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption finally, and here's the news about it. OXCGN had a 3 hour hands on with the game a few days ago and can honestly say it's not like most other multiplayers, in a good way. No lobby to speak of, continuous playing even when not in a match of sorts, and lots more.

Come check it out now for more details, and their latest Red Dead Redemption video.

Red Dead: Redemption has been discussed in length with regards to the Single Player aspects, but little, if anything has been said or disclosed about the multiplayer side of things, bar the simple fact that – “yes, there will be a multiplayer side to Red Dead: Redemption – we’re just not saying anything about it – just yet” which has been the official words echoed from Rockstar Games from the moment that news has been out about the game having a Multiplayer side of things in general.

Well I am glad to say, that has all been shattered today, because as of 4am AEST, the official online embargo was lifted and those press that were privy to a spacial showing of the multiplayer side of RedDead redemption, and given some 3 hours of hands-on with the game in a very private and luxurious setting in Sydney, are now able to fill you in on what could arguably be called one of the best crosses between Single player and Multiplayer modes in any game thus far.

Now let’s get this out there straight up – I am NOT a multiplayer type of guy, those that know me know that too well. I have never have never really liked it or taken to it, be that in FPS, racing games and the like due to many personal reasons, which are too numerous to go into here. So it was with trepidation that I accepted Rockstars special invitation to come along to the Sheraton On The Park in Sydney on the 6th April to get my hands well and truly bloodied on the very first official playtime with the game in multiplayer.
