I think the you lose the guns you pick-up in the gang hideouts when you quit playing. The XP is the only thing you keep.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Well I finished it....Spoilers
Gentle spoilers, that will not effect anyone who has played the game at least a few hours...
Medium Spoilers..if you are 50 percent in or so should not be a problem
Major end game spoilers...
So I sit here now, having experienced one hell of a game, and I am going back and forth with this or Mass Effect 2 as game of the year, but I will say, for me at least, I felt this game ended better than Mass Effect 2....Fantastic job!!!!

360. It could be my system -- I was having problems a few weeks ago that resolved themselves on their own, so I wonder if the system is dying. On the other hand, I spent the last few hours playing Alan Wake without a single problem. I suppose RDR could be more taxing on the system than AW, and therefore it's causing problems I don't see with AW. The other possibility I'm wondering about is a corrupted save file.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
The only glitch I've experienced is one that I haven't seen listed anywhere yet.
I was attacked by some wild animal that knocked me over the edge of a small cliff, but did not kill me.
All of a sudden, I was falling through the air, twisting and turning, for what had to be a good 45 seconds before finally meeting my death as I slammed into the ground ... in the middle of nowhere with no cliffs in sight.
It was like I jumped out of an airplane at 10,000 feet, sans parachute.
Anyone else experienced this.
Other than that one time, it's been a relatively smooth gameplay experience for me so far.

No glitches here. Are all the glitches coming from 360 players?

I have the 360 version and haven't seen any glitches. I had one slowdown moment when I was fighting a gang of bandits in the rain right after a cutscene, but that was about it.
And I got my Amazon $20 email this morning too.

FYI, I got my Amazon $20 credit email this morning. Well within the advertised timeframe.
Also, I've played nearly 15 hours or so of the single player and experienced no noticeable glitches.

Well, I currently have the PS3 version sitting in my car...although, I was going to return it for the 360 version (since apparently the graphics are better). Anyone want to tell me otherwise?

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
It's really up to you. The 360 graphics are better, that is true. Even as a PS3 only owner, I can see the difference in the videos I've seen online, espeically in terms of background detail. PS3 version has an exclusive outfit and an exclusive social club challenge, but nothing earth shattering that makes it the preferable version. Whichever system you prefer, you really can't go wrong either way.

I reached the 3rd major area last night and besides some slowdown, have experienced 0 glitches in 20 hours of playtime.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Picked this up from BB last week to get the warhorse. Unfortunately, it's only good for 1 user and I entered the code using my non-main character. No big deal....but I figured it was based on the console like downloading games or add-ons or whatever. Anyway, I can't stop shooting every animal I see. Also, I like it when a gang rides into town and is in a shoot-out with the law and I just kill them all since I can't tell who's good and bad. Any tips on this? I'm not sure how far along I am since I just wander and do random tasks/bounties.
I tried MP but it took me most of the game to ride to where the people were shooting and then I got my ass handed to me.....so I'll try that again down the road.

Where can i get the code for the War horse? Is it in the packaging? I bought it at BB but did not notice it.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
yeah, that's where mine was (with the map and the manual). I was worried that since I didn't pre-order it, I wouldn't get a code....but it was pre-packaged. War-horse has a massive dong....

Also, I just found out that if you don't kill the guy you're after in that first mission for the sheriff that Mo van Barr will never show up on a wanted poster, making it technically impossible to totally unlock the Deadly Assassin outfit. And yes, I didn't kill the guy in that mission. The sheriff flat out says to take him alive so I did just what he said. The folks at Rockstar have said they are going to fix that little problem though soon. Out of all the glitches that one pissed me off the most.

I shot the bastard. No prisoners. I didn't know how else to stop him since I hadn't learned the lasso yet. Is there another way to capture people without using the lasso?
Also, did anyone feel the need to drag that crazy Christian lady from the train back into town? She was there spouting how her faith was going to take care of her so I hogtied her and dragged her into town for someone else to deal with. She wasn't the least bit appreciative of my efforts.

So can you bang whores in this game? This guy will murder whoever, but god forbid you try to get your rocks off.
