It probably all came from NeoGAF.
Honestly, I don't see Rockstar announcing this at an NX conference. All they really need to do is drop a teaser on Youtube followed by a bigger trailer and that will generate all the buzz that they need.

I should have expected that lol. You guys are so OTT with this stuff.

What time is it?
Really curious to see the first post-Leslie Benzies game.
I'd leverage a lot of your complaints against RDR towards Assassin's Creed series. Fantastic settings marred by dull combat and automated climbing/traversal mechanics. Both probably get a pass due to their underutilized settings.

This just hit me, remember when these were considered great graphics?
Damn, just shows how long it's really been since RDR.

All of the reasons people say they hated GTA4 and wanted to improve to GTA5 applies to RDR. RDR was all boring shooting galleries with uninteresting characters and tortuous chore missions like rounding up sheep. Every opportunity for fun (like the car or glider thing) was unavailable to the player, and all side games were shit like horseshoe's and card betting.
At least GTA4 you could drive around and see the pretty buildings. RDR was an empty desert with like 8 towns that were built like a hollywood set, 1-2 blocks long with a saloon and some houses. The universal praise the game gets is insane to me when it came out after Assassins Creed 2 which has TONS more content/things to do for an open world game.
Tonally RDR was perfect though it just wasn't fun at all and the chore missions to get you to care about your family were the worst thing I've ever played in any game. And the PS3 version was blurry as shit compared to 360.

And? You're disappointed others are willing to spend money? You can get everything in GTA Online by just playing the game and all of the DLC has been free. Also, RDR's multiplayer was basically a proto version of GTA Online with the big free roam lobby. it's weird to see anyone praise one while shitting on the other.

A friendly reminder before the thread gets nuts:
But for real, how can you say RDR characters are uninteresting?

I take it you're not a fan of Westerns?
So awful...
One of the best things in the game was trotting a horse through the desert...
...then getting nailed by a meat-seeking missile...
Literally can't wait. RDR Online was superb.

RDR is legit Rockstar's best game ever and one of the best of all time IMO, just an overall amazing game.

GTAV mission design and story are dumb and boring as hell, so I hope they dont give the same treatment to this sequel. Specially the 3 characters useless feature.

Dude, even today this game looks incredible. I have been desperately wanting a remaster for a while but I might just break down and but it on backwards compatibility on XB1.

Never played a Read Dead game but after watching Django and The Hateful Eight I'm incredibly excited for a game in a Western setting. Really hope a remaster comes out in addition to the sequel. Though I think my brother has a copy of the zombie read dead game so I might try that.

Got RDR on the PS3 but still waiting for a PC or PS4 1080p60 remaster.
I won't play this game unless I can play it in HD and a decent FPS.

The seven walking over the hill, red splash, title pops up
Red Dead Online
Which looks great for a Wii U game.

If you actually played the game this makes zero fucking sense.
Edit:
Unless it's a remaster, but hopefully that's not the case.

I'd be surprised if they weren't separate. There's really no reason to combine them given that GTAV/O work just fine the way they are. I do think GTAO will impact the development of future Rockstar products, but just not in the way that some expect. Some think that future Rockstar games will be light on single player content because of GTAO's success. I'd expect them to be developed just like they always have been, except the success of the online portion combined with their games simply taking a long time to develop in the first place will mean that we will likely only get one entry of GTA or RDR a generation. So there will be a lot of DLC to keep people engaged with the games.
One thing we can hope for is that GTAV wasn't a sign of them not wanting to do single player DLC content. They're on record as saying that Episodes from Liberty City weren't as successful as they'd hoped for, but I think that was down to how long it took them to release. GTA4 had no multiplayer, so there was no additional hook once people finished the game and played around in the world for a while. Which meant that there was a ten month gap between GTA4 and The Lost and Damned. And there was a eight month gap between the release of TLaD and The Ballad of Gay Tony. By comparison, Redemption had a mulitplayer component and Undead Nightmare was a success. It also released five months after Redemption. So the game was still relatively new and it had a multiplayer component to keep people around. It also didn't hurt that there wasn't an exclusivity deal that delayed the release of UN for over a year on any specific platform.
It's both HD and decent fps on X1. Get to it.
Console and game can be found for less than $200.

I got the game because I loved Sergio Leone westerns and thought it would be a great re-interpretation of that.
It did end up using those elements in terms of visuals and music which were great but I still found it bad because I didn't find any of the characters likable (so I didn't care about the story) and the things to do were really dull. The chore missions are something I will never forget as the worst thing I've ever played. It actually made me hate the game so much but I forced myself through it so I didn't waste $60.
The "random" elements in the desert were literally the same 2 things on repeat. Either get attacked by a cougar or have someone feign for help then backstab you. There were hardly any random encounters worth engaging in once you did the initial few. Trotting through the desert on a horse (that you have to continually press X to keep going btw) isn't that amazing to me.
I think the graphics still holds up, but man those animations are poor as hell.

I thought the shooting and horse riding were awesome. That's... 90% of the game
Shooting was only just "ok" and watching a horses arse go up and down was about 98% of the rest.
It was an ok game but nothing special. You could paste the theme onto any number of other open world games and get exactly the same experience.
Hopefully they take the few good ideas they had, such as the random events in town and really expand on them to make a world that is at least slightly interactive this time around. If anybody is going to make an actually interesting open world game, this is probably the best shot.
