curious, but just because it's thisgengaming, I'm gonna wait for someone to tell or look it up somewhere else. f**k you.

naruga2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

i m seeing Red Dead 2 having and Xbox headed campaign ...maybe it would have also timed exclusive content or DLCs .... would make sense as the previous one was most praised on X360

Overload2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

@naruga

RDR2 has exclusive marketing on PS4. There will be no Xbox headed campaign.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Gets Timed Exclusive Content on PS4
http://www.usgamer.net/arti...

This fall PlayStation has the advertising rights to RDR2, Destiny 2, Call Of Duty 2017 and Star Wars Battlefront 2.

mkis0072590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

naruga

It's already been confirmed to be a PlayStation headed campaign, with some select online content first on ps4.

@Naruga, Sony has the marketing deal for Red Dead 2.

But im waiting to see if it will have a Scorpio patch before I buy on PS4 Pro.

nveenio2590d ago

I hope the marketing deal with Sony isn't consolation for the lack of Agent.

naruga2590d ago

@above ok i didnt know...just made a speculation 'cause of previous Red dead

Ceaser98573612590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

overload

you sure Star Wars Battlefront 2 is marketed by Sony, i heard this time around Xbox gonna do it and showcase it on Scorpio.. I may be wrong, but that's what i heard.

This screams to me delayed, we have heard nothing for 6 months! it's nearly April and we havnt had any news whatsoever, and it's supposed to be out in 6 months.

I wouldn't be shocked if it's early 2018 for this.

bloop2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

That's how R* usually do it though. They don't tend to show of a whole lot of their games beforehand.

SpinalRemains1382590d ago

Or a mess upon Q4 arrival. Either or.

smolinsk2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

Spot on, if it was gonna be a sep or oct release then we would have heard something other then the trailer by now. early next year for sure.

starrman19852589d ago

E3 gameplay footage, then they will probably do several promotional videos leading up to launch showcasing different aspects of the game!

seanpitt232588d ago

Just to let you guys know that Rockstar hasn't released a game on time without being delayed for a decade.

So I am glad you guys are optimistic.

Ceaser98573612590d ago

Well no game play trailer yet.. R* Dont participate on E3 ... Releasing on Sept 2017.. Doesn't add up... But excited for this game.. That being said what IF R* shows RDR 2 on Sony's stage since Sony is doing the marketing for their game... I know there is a 0 percent chance of that happening but then you never know..

PapaBop2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

"The dates match up with the Fall 2017 planned release period and it’s also on a Tuesday when video games are usually released"

At least do your research, games are traditionally released on a Friday in the UK. Some games get simultaneous releases worldwide which GTA 5 was one of them if memory serves me right but games are not usually released on a Tuesday here. In terms of the credibility.. I hadn't even heard of Base six months ago so wouldn't hold my breath but the release date makes sense, September would be the perfect time for Rockstar to release RDR 2.

lxtrxi2590d ago

Massive AAA games in the UK almost always release on Tuesday. So that's BS.

Source: I live in the UK.

JamesBondage2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

They release on Tuesday in the states as well

sergons2590d ago

Mass Defect was released today, Thursday in uk, eu.

Nitrowolf22590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

eh

http://www.mcvuk.com/retail...

I mean looking at that List alone, a majority of the big titles are out Fridays

Nier
Mass Effect
Prey 2
Injustice 2
Crash Collection

Those are just some of them for this Year, there are plenty others and even the ones that don't release on Friday are Usually Wedneday, like the PlayStation Network updates there.

Its not to say games don't release Tuesdays, you just usually see the big ones don't. I know Persona 5 iis getting a World Wide release for PAL and US, Yakuza 0 got the same World Wid erelease date to

Even still, they could be shooting for a same Launch date World Wide

OB1Biker2590d ago (Edited 2590d ago )

I wish but no. UK is always last . MEA only today

Aenea2590d ago

When did Mass Effect: Andromeda release in the UK? Last Tuesday? Today, like in the rest of Europe? Or tomorrow?

I call your 'experience' BS. UK is almost always releasing on the same date as the rest of Europe and tho a nice chunk of the games release on Tuesdays, most release on Friday. And only a few release on Wednesday or Thursday...

Here, your proof: http://www.mcvuk.com/retail...

As you can see there most dates are actually on a Friday....

SinisterKieran2590d ago

I don't think he gets that yes, games can release on a tuesday in the uk.
GTA V was released on the 17th of september 2013..which is of course a tuesday

PapaBop2590d ago

Major AAA games (like one or two a month tops usually) get released on Tuesdays or Wednesday but every other game gets released on Fridays. The two biggest selling games here (fifa and cod) both release on Fridays so to call me out for "BSing" is well, BS.

Loads of games come out on Tuesday in the UK

I live in the UK

pootymcpoockle2590d ago

It's actually Tuesday more often than not. Which is always amazing for me as I have every Wednesday and Thursday off work.

DivoJones2590d ago

September 26th 2017.. managed to read it through the pop up ad that obscures the article. I love websites that push advertising to the point their site is unreadable until you click it away.

crazychris41242590d ago

Thanks bro, thisgengaming is just the worst

Resis7ance2590d ago

This article had the release date for October by yet again more UK retailers. I wouldn't believe a release date until Rockstar confirm it themselves.

SpinalRemains1382590d ago

How else are you supposed to have your jaw drop at what Nicole Eggert looks like now?

Gamist2dot02590d ago

I don't care about release date leaks anymore. I do care about a new trailer though...which we'll probably see near or on E3 week.

hashemiteking2590d ago

If RDR2 and Mario Odyssey both release this year I might have to claim 2017 as one of the best years for gaming. I would already say 2017 is a contender based on the releases so far, but those two would put it over the top for me.

ThatGuyDart2590d ago

God of War has a chance also.

SilverDemon2589d ago

So does spiderman ps4

6 Games That Genuinely Deserve A Current-Gen Upgrade

Games such as Mad Max, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Batman: Arkham Knight desperately deserve a modern-day revisit.

thorstein8d ago

Mad Max is underrated. Such a fun game.

Cacabunga8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

RDR2 still looks astounding on PS4 Pro. i cannot imagine how it could look with a next gen upgrade.

JonTheGod7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

Probably not very different.

No idea why this article is highlighting recent beautiful graphically-advanced games and saying they need current gen makeovers. They already look better than most new releases; just compare Arkham Knight and Suicide Squad!

Yi-Long7d ago

It's obviously never gonna happen since Sony killed the game and studio, but Driveclub. Even in its current state, 10 years after release, it still puts many competitors to shame ...

Demetrius7d ago

I'm not into racing games but yeah I even looked at gameplay of that sometimes

Demetrius7d ago

Mad max ikr! Far cry primal, it amuses me how ubisoft just left ac unity hanging, sadly most of the good staff left from rocksteady while being forced to make that abomination smh

hmm kinda out there i find red dead 2 a over hyped game i am sure there are other's out there worthy of this award.

Are we saying rdr 2 mp is better than the first one?

The cover shooting better on #2 than #1?

I mean they reused 80% of rdr 1 map on rdr 2

smolinsk26d ago

Red Dead Redemption 1 was better. A better story that's for sure but the world in red Dead Redemption 2 is fantastic. But overall yes Red Dead Redemption 2 is overhyped but with best living World ever made.

just_looken26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

Oh rdr 2 world how you leave tracks what you can do and the npc's are great no doubt

For me its the forced guns one way to play missions and the camp you can do nothing be a ass and there is no change sense none of the hunting/donating.bounty/karma etc even taking care of your horse matters. Then you got the horse inventory along with them bringing in realistic inventory but at the same time have that slomo crap pick a lane is it a wild west sim or a max payne rip off.

shinoff218325d ago (Edited 25d ago )

Plus who cares about the mp. Single player is where it's at.

I don't think it's the best sequel either. I liked it but I can see why some say it's overhyped. That's because it was. Great game still. I'd take xcom 2 as a better sequel. I'm sure there's plenty others.

just_looken25d ago

We care about mp because of gta v even if you been living under a rock you know what gtao did to gta v dlc.

Though rdr 2 mp failed it still put time/resources and budget away from the single player for a subpar experience compared to the first.

lucasnooker26d ago

Hmmm don’t know about that one myself. There’s some good sequels there….

No way last of us 2 was a better sequel than the original resident evil 2. The story of TLOU2 was a huge let down for me!

Assassins creed 2 was a vast improvement over the original and still the very best of the entire franchise imo.

Half-life 2 will always be legendary.

RDR2 is great but the best sequel ever? I don’t think so… just my opinion though I guess

shinoff218325d ago

Shoot down last of us 2 but bring up assassins creed 2. What in the world.

anast26d ago

Last of Us 2 would be mine and Dark Souls 3 has to be up there.

raWfodog26d ago

I also enjoyed TLOU2 but RDR2 edges it out for me. Both hit me in the feels but RDR2 just a little bit more lol.

anast26d ago

RDR2 is an excellent game. One of my top 10 of all time.

SimpleSlave26d ago

Sure, if you started playing game yesterday and just for this series. Otherwise? lol... No.
