I've never played RDR, so take what I say with a grain of sand, but it just looks like a generic wild-west game not necessarily copying from one game.
That's sort of what I see, too, Mathew. I mean, if you decided to make an open-world game and set it in the wild west, it would be a "copy" of RDR. However, the addition of werewolves and vampires and zombies seems a little more encompassing (read: gimmicky) than RDR.
That is the best rap I've ever heard in a video game trailer.
I need to make that shiznit my ringtone right now.

Why? Why did I decide to watch the trailer? That song is the worst thing I've heard in a good long time. Its like Fred Durst met Hank Williams Jr., and they decided to set the world of awful music ablaze with a sonic approximation of lukewarm feces.
MathewRD: I think you need to view it in context with everything else Gameloft has done. It's done off-brand games for Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, Zelda, Final Fantasy, WOW, Halo, GTA. It's what the company does.
I don't think that's necessarily wrong (they're mostly putting games on a system that the official publishers refuse to) but they are DEFINITELY aping Red Dead with this. It's Gameloft's modus operandi.

So basically gameloft is just pulling a Hollywood on us. Thankfully we are fortunate in that they do a pretty decent job of hopping on the bandwagon.
Since a lot of console developers aren't making games for the iPhone, I see nothing wrong with one developer making a rip-off. I enjoy games like Zelda, Uncharted, GTA, etc, so it's nice to know I have some games like it on my iPhone to play.
Now if gameloft was making games for the 360/PS3/Wii, that'd be a different story..

According to the ANONYMOUS SOURCE, their next title will be Murderzone, a game where green eyed masked space fascists from planet Inferghan invade planet Beckta.
Gameloft games are near-hit or miss. EA is the only other oblige pumping out quality games on Android, but their games are always more pricey than GL's. I'm very happy that they support the gamepad on the Xperia Play, so I picked up half a dozen of their games when they had a $1 sale.
Scared Odyssey (the Zelda clone) is probably their best rip-off in terms of quality, and it's really great. Asphalt 6 plays better than EA's beautiful Need for Speed. Dungeon Hunter 2 is shallow but fun, and Star Battalion is pretty enjoyable too, though it suffers a but from what most if their games are plagued: bad controls (in the Play's gamepad). Seemingly their shooting merchants are notoriously poor, where EA's Dead Space is heralded in that regard. Their MMO game copies WoW fantastically by all accounts, even with world PvP (which Blizzard killed off with the advent of PvP gear and Arena).
As far as this game goes, I hope it comes to Android with Play support.

Can you post a link to any articles about the other knockoffs? I can't find any and I wanna read more about this. It's amusing.

Actually, this made me think of Deadlands more than it did RDR.
God, I wish someone made a Deadlands videogame.

I can not wait for the day when people realize that it's fucking shitty to play most genres on a touchscreen exclusively.
Oh god that song they used in that trailer. Just seemed like they were trying to rhyme as much as they could about cowboys. I think this song would work much better.

Hmm, seems like they went more with vampire/zombies but it does seem very RDR. I'm kinda impressed with the graphics and seemingly detailed gameplay. Any chance we'll see a Dtiod review?
Trailer song is pretty good too.

Unoriginal content aside: come on guys. Vampires, werewolves, zombies, cowboys, redneck hiphop, horseback riding, SyFy Channel-style decapitation, AND being able to wear top hats? How could ANYbody say no to this on their mobile phones?! I seriously hope this comes to Windows Phone 7.
Who the fuck cares. It would matter if the real games were on IOS but they are NOT. I'm 100% fine with Gameloft making these games, because it's much better than NOTHING.
Eternal legacy their ripoff of ff xiii is pretty fantastic. I love there portable ripoffs. Keep them coming until the big devs decide to make a worthy android game
Rockstar won't make the game on iOS, so..it's totally okay! *thumbs up*
Keep it up, Gameloft!
I'm pretty glad I've never given them any money.

So... this isn't a bigger threat to companies than pirating or used game sales?
Alright then, companies have make their stance. As long as Gameloft doesn't start requiring online passes I fully support their endeavors.

It looks like it may be fun. I don't mind them copying other stuff because they usually do a good job with it.
Looks great! (just to to make some balance for some much bullshit i read here). Anyway, looks great.
"Same with inFamous: Twilight Edition."
Felt my colon clench.
This game actually looks like it might be okay. Some of the locales even looked more interesting than a lot of the places in RDR. I'm not going to get whipped up into a frenzy over this or anything, but if this is actually playable and fun RDR fans have nothing to complain about.
