I'm really fucking excited about this game. The facial animations are the best I've seen in any game bar none; facial movements have been my biggest pet peeve ever when it comes to video games. They never looked right. UNTIL NOW.

My biggest concern is that because they've put such a heavy focus on what they've done for facial expressions, I really have no idea what this game is really like or what the gameplay is like. I fully support what they're doing here but if that's all this game really has to offer, I'll probably pass. It'd be nice to see a demo.

I must say, yes, the graphics are great and all but this game will either be a huge hit or a major flop. We'll have to wait and see.

I'm worried about the driving physics. Didn't like the way the cars moved at all.

Look how old the cars are. They don't handle like today's cars.
But yeah, they do look a tad off. Strange.

Just found this game won't have a PC version. Dumb.

Given that Rockstar never released a PC version of Read Dead Redemption either, I'm betting on not.

My roommate rented it for 360 and has been playing it quite a bit. Looks pretty cool from what I've watched.

I bought it for 360, lots of fun. The ability to interrogate witnesses allows you to get deeper into the game and makes it feel like you are actually solving the case rather than just running from point A to point B and looking at stuff. But yes the cars do handle kind of awkwardly but you get used to it eventually. The dispatch calls that happen while you're driving in a police car mix things up when driving to point B which makes it even more engaging, although sometimes there will be 3 or 4 dispatch calls in one drive. So they can get annoying, but that doesn't happen too often.
