    I love the menu for sorting through your unlocked outfits/characters in multiplayer. They categories of characters are as follows:

    Lawmen
    So and So's Gang
    Banditos
    ...
    Misc. Mexicans.

    I have never seen shit like that in a game in my life.

    Okay, if this story doesn't cause Pika to go buy this game right now, nothing will. I told it already a few pages back, but I think it will tip him over the edge:

    I was playing multiplayer with my brother, the two of us in a posse. We were about a mile outside of a town, trying to find birds to shoot out of the sky for the hunting challenge. After a while, another posse of two men started harassing us, killing us while we were distracted by high flying creatures of the ornithological nature.

    Then, I saw the two of those guys on the horizon. I could only see their silohuettes, but I could tell they were the same dudes by the coloured dots on edge of the minimap. I could see that they were mounted, and there was a cougar or some other animal running behind them.

    "Excellent," I said to my hombre, "Watch and learn."

    I pulled out my rifle, knelt down in the weeds and steadied my aim. With masterful percision, I pulled the trigger, and a split second later the tiny, darkened silohuette of a horse went clattering down in the dirt. The rider fell, slowly got up, and was promptly mauled by the animal chasing him.

    I guess the sight of his friend's jugular torn out was too much for him, because the other guy turned and gallopped away over the horizon. We never saw them 'round those parts again.

    If you were playing and got suddenly disconnected, and trying to get back into the game gives you an error, you have to restart the game. Go back to the dashboard, count to 10, and load the game back up. Should be good to go after that.

    This was answered just a page or two back, but here you go:
    You need the lasso to take bounties alive. You have to hog tie them and haul them back to town on your horse.

    Are there hilarious shenanigans you can do in multiplayer like there were in GTA4? Like playing GTA race in the times square course and driving city buses to block the street.

    You think it up, you can do it.

    On an unrelated note, I have maybe two achievements, but one of them is the viral "Kill a Rockstar" one. For those who don't know, if you get this achievement this month you have a chance to win a contest to have your likeness turned into a playable character in the upcoming DLC.

    Also, for those who forgot, more co-op sheninanigans incoming in June for free.

    Man, I really need to have the right weapon selected. I was trying to save a hooker from a man knifing her. Who knew that a rifle will not only shoot the man, but the woman beneath him. Oppsie.

    You can also shoot in their general vicinity to get them to stop. The guy will stare at you for a bit before shooting you.

    Is there a way to cancel Dead Eye? There was one time I was movin' the reticle over to my target and found myself x'ing an innocent. I was like D:

    I kept getting a network error trying to join my friend's public game. We switched to a private game, it's working but after I join his posse I can't move at all. He says I don't show on the map.

    Any ideas or is this just a mysterious launch day issue?

    Ok so I'm a bit confused on the multi-player lobby stuff. How do I join the games with objectives and teams and crap? I've only figured out how to get into a free roam lobby and that seems like its mostly just deathmatching which I find incredibly boring.

    I'm looking to do some of the gold rush stuff and other game modes.

    New interesting problem: people are playing the game installed on their Xbox 360 hard drives, right?

    Well, I bought a new hard drive (didn't stop the freezing; we're deciding whether to take it back or just replace or old 20gb drive). Somebody on another board suggested I try installing the game, so we installed it to this new drive (none of our data has yet been transferred to this new drive because we're not sure if we're going to keep it). When we tried to start the game it just dropped back to the dashboard. We would get the menu, and ask to start single player, the screen would go black and look, it's the dashboard again.

    I assume this hasn't happened to anyone else? I can't seem to find anything like this by searching google.
