You yellow bellied, son of a pole cat!

Got your attention didn't I. If you don't know the lingo then you're either not from the country or you haven't been playing Rockstar's newest game Red Dead Redemption. Let me tell you all that this game is a good contender for game of the year 2010 already. I will say at first I wasn't impressed with the graphics for each person, but when you think about how this game actually plays from a 3rd person perspective, the characters look very real.

The landscapes for this game are breathtaking. You can ride on a stagecoach to other areas of the map and sometimes I feel compelled to actually just watch the landscape as I travel. Very few games make me do that.

The dialogue is pretty spot on, sometimes dialogue is pretty corny, but nothing can be perfect and there are some pretty corny people out in the world as well.

The side-missions and challenges that you can do are actually fun and worth putting your time into. I spent over an hour trying to catch wild game and skinning their pelts for cash. My wife really liked to see that over and over again! (sarcasm)

The only thing I haven't delved into deeply is the multiplayer, which means I need your help. Any Kentucky gamers who wish to get a possee together and save or destroy the old west should comment me either on here or on facebook so we can really enjoy the multiplayer at its finest. I'll give a multiplayer only review soon enough, but until then I'll see y'all later. Yeee Haa!

Kentucky gamers are better!

Hey folks this is Rollianos back to bring you more of the same videogaming news that many Kentucky gamers need to hear about. I've always been a videogamer and so I will use my talents for the good of all Kentucky. I continue to bring rock solid reviews that will make you say man that guy is good, but I also want to work on bringing gamers from all over Kentucky together to share in several different gaming genres so that we all can live in harmony...well maybe chaos depending on the type of game to play.

So first things first, I need to inform you all about the Halo: Reach beta multiplayer. I haven't had this much fun playing Halo since the very first one on Xbox. The gameplay is exactly what Halo has always been like before so I won't get into much detail there. I prefer being able to aim down the sight of my gun, but I guess if you're a Spartan you don't need to aim and still shoot well enough.

The graphics are pretty solid, but maps seem to lack visual detail like we have come to expect from Call of Duty and other such games. Seems that Bungie decided to go with more character detail and weapon detail this time around and I guess if you have to pick one over the other it makes sense. Character customization is a big thing for this new game. There are several different helmet, shoulder plate, and chest plate styles of armor that players may buy through credits gained by playing through the different games. I don't know how this works specifically because get the same range of credit points usually no matter if I win, lose, or are on top.

The scenarios of gameplay is also unique and thrilling. Instead of veto power, players vote on the map and type of game they want to play. Slayer is always a favorite, but new types of games like stockpile are quite thrilling as well. I must say I don't like SWAT too much, but I don't play Halo as often as other games so I guess I'm just not as good with the aiming styles for this game.

I really think this will be a buy guys and gals. I look forward to learning more as I continue playing. Since this is still a BETA you must have Halo 3: ODST to play. If you don't have it you may want to wait, I actually just borrowed the game from a friend so I don't think I'll buy ODST just for the BETA. However, if you have this game for the next few weeks look me up Kentucky gamers and we'll pwn some noobs!
