Hey Guys....Ive never played these on multiplayer yet, is it worth the time?, or only passing interest?

I know a lot of members really enjoy playing Red Dead on multiplayer.  I've never tried it though.

RDR is played quite regular here, Can be a lot of fun.

I've only hit up GTA once online since I brought the game. (3 years ago and I still have not even completed the main game, I should really get back to playing it).
I know it has been mentioned from a few other members to get a game going online one night, Which I would be up for. It is up for voting in our Friday game night but never seems to win, (You're vote might help :P).
If not then maybe I'll try and sort something out for a Saturday night.

GTAIV multiplayer is a damn good laugh. The cops v robbers / gettaway type games are funny....but like Sambo for some reason the single player game didnt grip me so I traded it in.

I would definitely be up for 360 madness in cops v robbers, I've cried tears playing that before. I remember getting a car full of criminals wedged in an alley 'Austin Powers style' as the cop cars rapidly approached, there was a ton of abuse but it was funny as f***.

Another game I have to buy again since joining 360!

Red Dead is awesome in multiplayer, especialy if you like Co-op as there is a ton to do, imo it beats all others for co-op. Versus is pretty fun, but for some reason not as popular as Gears, CoD or Halo, I cant work out why as it is a lot of fun.

Playing most nights 8pm-12pm GMT. Longer if it's the weekend.

My RDR is still wrapped, almost started it last night but started BioShock 2 instead so obviously I can't comment on it's multiplayer though loads here do play it, tried GTA's MP two or three times but didn't really like it.

Im thinking getting a few peeps together and trying GTA IV, i could do with a good laugh. I finished GTA IV, but there was one damn Bank Robbery mission in it that i tried ......must be close to 20 times before i was ready to pack it in. I seem to do that often though get a good game, get to a hard point, stop for a few days come back to it and get past that level first time. Not always first time but u get the idea :P

GTA IV is up for voting on the [Friday Night Game Night] - it almost took the prize a couple of weeks ago, so like Sambo said, your vote might help it happen.  ;)

I've only played the MP for GTA IV once or twice a long time ago. Was pretty fun, but only got to play the free-roam style portion of it in a random match. I'm guessing it would be a lot more fun knowing the group you're playing with. RDR's MP has quickly grown on me and it's variation in games is pretty thick with Online Co-Op, Shootouts, Capture the Bag, Races,  Liar's Dice + Poker.

Of the two, I'd say RDR has a more thorough MP experience, but again I've only messed with GTA IV MP a while back, though I'll keep voting for it for [Game Nights] *hint, hint* -  ;)

Red Dead is one of the most underrated multiplayers out there, great laugh. GTA seems ok haven't played much online, but what I did play was entertaining enough.

Played a little bit of both online and they can be quite fun. The RDR co op is nice as well.
