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!

after you do a certain mission with Bonnie, where you learn to break horses, you are given a golden coloured horse which is one of the three rare horses in the game - the kentucky saddler.
the other two rare horses, which have the best speed and strength, are the hungarian half-bred, fully white, which can be found roaming the wild in mexico. and the american standardbred, fully black, which can be found roaming the wild in west elizebeth. neither horses can be purchased until you have found them and broken them in, which is also worth a trophy.
So this is how you can get the trophy!
I stuck with the one i was given until i saw one which was all black and thought it looked slightly cooler lol, but never know if it was any better or anything.
I have managed to do some of the challenges up to level 7, but need to go kill some bears now, aint seen any, where are they?
I really need to get back on it, but the gf has a week off work and i cant get time on there lol, hopefully later!
I need to go back to America at some stage as I hardly did any hunting or treasure searching or anything really. I need to do the hunter challenges and skin as many animals as possible to save up for the $1500 horse.
If you successfully find treasure, do you get a bit of money from it? Or is it just for the achievement?

I find skinning animals and flower picking a big distraction. I take a brief pause every now and then to do a mission, talk to a stranger, tie up a woman and leave her on the train track.
I saw a dead dear lying by the side of the road this morning and skinning it was the first thing that came into my mind.
Had a couple of goes on multiplayer, the silly 'free-roam' thing decided to dump me in the middle of a town where a massive gun-fight was taking place, not an ideal introduction! Got into it eventually though and got a couple of good games in before I went to watch telly.

Lol, well i look forward to seeing the ending and then working to get some trophies and online.
When you finish the game, cane you go back and do things for strangers and that, as there is a silver trophy for helping 15 strangers, i have helped about 8 i think, but dont want to miss my chance!!?
Still great and will hopefully be able to play some more soon, but i also enjoy the online aspect of it!
I must be near the end of Mexico but we will see, roughly at what % do you complete the game chris?
I need to rack up some more trophies, you do not really unlock too many just playing through it seems, but maybe more come along later.
