[Game News] Competitive multiplayer Red Dead Redemption screens surface

Showdown at High Noon it isn't, but it is a smattering of new screens from Rockstar. The game, soon to ship, is Rockstar's take on the western, a sandbox action-adventure contains both co-operative and competitive multiplayer modes. The co-operative mode sees you and friends combine in a posse and allows free roaming through the game's world. There is more 'game' to the competitive multiplayer, supporting up to 16 players and starting with a large Mexican standoff.

[Game News] Gran Turismo 5 headed for winter release?

It seems, in keeping with tradition, that Sony have let slip some information through a digital magazine ahead of a game show. Similar to the reveal of the PSP GO before last year's E3 summit, Sony have dropped a release window for GT5 in firstplay, the European equivalent to Qore.
