I know it is a game that many of the users on here are picking up, and with the release being only a couple days away, i thought it would be a good idea to start this Thread and get everyone's views, anticipations and expectations.

And of course as soon as we have all had ample time to play we will then be able to look back and see what went wrong and what was spot on!

So let's gets discussing!

I've done something similar but got no trophy for it... did you have to free the sheriff first?

I got a Silver trophy last night for cleaning out some rebels from a town. It took all of 2 minutes with the Sheriff's help.

I want to say something about your username proving your manliness but.... I won't ;)

I know, you're terrible but we put up with you :)

Watching McLong play this convinced me I had to have it.

Went and bought it for £4 from GAME. And didn't play it much last night. Women eh? :D

Will see you all on it soon.

Damn Grizzly Bear took my Pure White Horse out, he was a majestic creature who rode like the wind!

Need to kill 3 Bears in one shot, just bought a new Sniper Rifle with pretty much full power so that should do it, and that will complete level 7 Sharpshooter, i want to complete one of the challenegs for a trophy i think.

I did get the easiest Silver Trophy ever in history, by using expert aiming to get a headshot! I had been doing this without knowing for half the game anyway pretty much lol.

But i am near the end of the game so i want to try and complete some of the side bits and pieces to get some trophies, but i know you can go back after completing to finish some things, so there will be time later i guess!

I jumped off a cliff with mine :(

Carrying around his pelt in my bag does help with the grief somewhat.

Making some money from the skin helped with the grief.

I've had a couple of hooligans attempt to pinch my latest horse. What is the world coming to? But nothing says "don't pinch my ride again" like a bullet in the back of the head.

I hope you skinned it Dav. My golden horse got stolen shortly after I got it :( so I'm saving up for a $1500 black horse (got about $1200 at the moment).

I'm pretty sure I caught me a white one from Mexico Emmie... but I had to go up to hanging rock last night to finish the American Appetites mission, and my horse get ripped to shreds by some creature. I promptly skinned it (take note Dav).

I really love Dead-Eye lvl 3 by the way. When you get ambushed by a posse in the middle of the desert, it's so fun lining up a series of headshots and watching the horses just run off aimlessly afterwards.

My rare golden coloured horse got mauled... it was a sad moment.
