I thought there was no sex mini-game in RDR?

[Crybaby Bunting]

That's what's going wrong :/

I keep hitting A B A Y B Y.... forgetting that every two 'beats' is an A button press.

[Baddar]

I'll be on from now until 7.30pm ...are you with me, Benj?

[Benji]

Hmm, I was going to watch Doctor Who, but I suppose I can delay it, quarter of an hour, watching Dexter episode and it's a finale

I thought there was no sex mini-game in RDR?

[Crybaby Bunting]

Rockstar Games has come under fire for the drunken character "Irish" in Red Dead Redemption. Herald.ie, an online newspaper based in Dublin, took offense at the character, saying: "The stereotype of the drunken Paddy will again be taken advantage of, as the game's town drunk is called 'Irish'," adding that the character "sours the launch" for gamers with Irish heritage.

This isn't the first time that Rockstar has upset ethnic groups with its games. Most notable was the "Kill the Haitians" mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, which resulted in Rockstar releasing a new version of the game with certain lines of dialogue removed after Cuban and Haitian groups complained.

Could "Irish" be removed from future versions of the game? There's certainly a precedent for it.

Son of a bitch. Irish was easily one of my favorite characters too.

Oh we'll ride, ride you and your horses corpses.

[probablyoliver]

Spare the horses you heartless bastard, they're only guilty by association.

[King Ellis]

What time?

[probablyoliver]

I'm free from 8ish.

[9 to 5]

I may make an appearance.

People need to learn poker.

I wasn't sure, so I checked a couple of sites that said so. Meh. Definitely not a fan of the AI having the same hand but one card higher though, happens too frequently to be coincidence.

Benji and I beat the shit out of Lobo (king wolf), Khan (king cougar) and the king of the boars/bears too (whose names escape me) earlier on. Some good progress considering we played for about 2 hours less than last night.

If we can both get on at the same time tomorrow evening, we're gonna try the $5k bounty one.

EDIT: Google tells me they're Gordo and Brumas, respectively.

Red Dead Wiki has been a great resource, just in case people need one.

I bought the maps from the General Stores around the world, but apparently I'm still missing one location in New Austin (which is Tumbleweed, McFarlane's Ranch etc.) that I haven't visited yet.

Anyone know where this hidden place is located exactly?

[TKz]

What time are you two thinking tomorrow? I don't finish work until 7 but I'd like to join in at some point!

[Baddar]

I'll be going on at about 7pm I would imagine, on til whenever.
