So if I already have a 360 with a wireless adapter and plenty of HD space left, there's no reason at all to upgrade...
i think you misread the article.

Much less power consumption, supposed to be quieter, and looks sexier.
Where did you get that overnight bag?

I don't care enough to spend money on any of those things, so I guess my old 360 is safe for now. :users:

I finally got the hell out of Mexico and into Blackwater. Cougars and Boars can eat my crap. Have yet to see a bear. After Yellowstone, I might freak out.

Just ride up into the North part of Tall Trees....you'll see loads of bears.

I got attacked by them all the time in Mexico.  There should be an icon on the map where there are wolves.

Mexico or Gaptooth breach.  Later, you'll find them all over the plains and in tall trees.


The one I am having trouble with is level 10 of sharp shooter.  Tough to find a spot where I can attempt to disarm 6 bad guys in a row without reloading.

Yeah, I've seen a crap ton up in Tall Trees at night too. Kinda gets annoying wasting ammo killing them after awhile.

Go to the mine, i forget where, Gaptooth Ridge gang hideout maybe??, but you go through the mine killing people. Use dead eye to disarm people. Using dead eye always starts with a full round, but doesn't count as reloading... It's nice because only one or two people come at you at a time, so it is easy pickins... Did it on my 2nd try.

I didn't realize that dead eye didn't count as reloading...thanks.

The new one? Doubtful.  Maybe with all the graphics options turned to low.

Prototype on the PC was good, you guys are tards.

Maybe my opinion is skewed by the vastly superior visuals and gameplay I get.
