Get Rich with Red Dead Redemption DLC Codes

People who pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption received codes to download special items and weapons. Some people are now selling these download codes on eBay and the prices for these items are very high.

You wouldn't see me buying a DLC that people get in stores

MightyMark4275847d ago

i agree, damn there are greedy people out there that wants to make a profit of something they received for free heh

MattyF5847d ago

Always happens. People will do anything to make a few extra bucks.

PS360_375847d ago

I really can't blame them, because there are always people out there that buy it. The demand is obviously there.

IdleLeeSiuLung5847d ago

Why blame it on the seller or buyer? They both seem happy so what is the problem. Seriously people always think that they can butt into others bizness.

If the sellers were hoarding it, then that is an entirely different issue, but these were given away as a pre-order. Just a case of the smart outwits the non-planner.

ReservoirDog3165847d ago

Haha, jeez. I just gave out two golden gun codes. To think I could've made money. Oh well I suppose. No use crying over that. Hope those two enjoy it though.

vickers5005846d ago

I do enjoy it, ReservoirDog316. Thanks again, more people should be as nice as you.

Though it's not as bad as the WoW DLC that was once released. If I remember they were charging 100 dollars or so (maybe i'm completely off) for a new mount.

NexGen5847d ago

You're right, somewhat. People were charging for rare mounts that were only obtained through buying the WoW trading cards. The rare card had a code for this mount...prices were going for well over $100 for it though lol.

SnakePlissken5846d ago

Yea, you would rather pay through the nose on xbox live for your DLC. I see the difference, lol. Moron!

PPNSteve5847d ago

What a bunch of greedy tards.. but now a days people will buy and sell anything. *sigh*

BeaArthur5847d ago

I would love to hear an explanation as to why anyone would buy that stuff.

STICKzophrenic5847d ago

Don't blame the people listing them, blame the morons willing to pay that price.

It doesn't make any sense why someone would spend at least half the cost of the game for ONE single item. Obviously they have the internet, so why didn't they know about the pre-order bonuses?

vickers5005846d ago

I would like to buy the War Horse for my ps3 version, but the maximum amount I would be willing to spend would be 5 bucks. I don't have a best buy where I live, so I couldn't really partake in (all) of the pre order bonuses. I certainly wouldn't pay 30 bucks for one though.

SnakePlissken5846d ago

Maybe because their copy didnt come with DLC and they cant get it anywhere else? You buy DLC on live, how is it any different? Its good to see the consumer for once, be able to make a few extra bucks back on his or her purchase. Nothing wrong with that!

jagstatboy5847d ago

no worse than publishers and developers getting greedy and charging extra to play online with a used game.

STICKzophrenic5847d ago (Edited 5847d ago )

I don't agree with charging to unlock online modes for used games, but it's $10 for all of the online features. This is $25-$50 for a single item.

That isn't even close to the same thing really.

jagstatboy5847d ago

maybe not close in terms of dollars and cents, but it's the same principle.

Ares84PS35847d ago

Will raise the price for DLC in the future because idiots will buy this.

Red Dead Redemption Hits 3.3 Million Netflix Downloads on Mobile

More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.

How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

What if Netflix becomes ‘the Netflix of gaming?!’

Alek83128d ago

I downloaded it because I already have a Netflix sub.
I am not going to buy it for $40 or whatever it costs on Google Play.

I tried it out and will be sticking to the PC version, but it's not bad.

Having said that, this is the issues I see vs the PC version:
1. Greatly reduced texture resolution.
2. Massive downgrade ALL lighting quality (this includes water, shadows, etc).
3. Stutter and heat. Prolonged play leads to both.
On the plus side, we have:
4. This thing is like 6GB vs the 12 on Steam.

Great way to try the game, but not the best way to play it.

darthv72130d ago

Perhaps Netflix will make a RDR series now that ST is done with.

Lionsguard129d ago

A Netflix version of RDR?... Oh boy... I can't wait... /s

TheColbertinator129d ago

They should build a production that includes members behind the True Grit remake and Hell on Wheels from AMC. Both were perfect for wild west vibes.

gold_drake129d ago

but i doubt people ACTUALLY played it on smartphone vs tried it out.

Another free update...good to know but I don't own a series X

Petebloodyonion162d ago

I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

Hypertension140162d ago (Edited 162d ago )

Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
