Can you squeeze in a bit of RDR gaming this weekend?

This weekend is certainly going to be an active one, if not overly active, for many gamers. A new beta is live to try out, sweet new XBLA games need to be played, and there is the offering of extra XP and bonuses in other titles too for the weekend! The heavy schedule for some of us could be about to change, as Rockstar Games have unleashed a Triple XP event for there much loved sandbox title, Red Dead Redemption.

For those on the grind towards completing the game and unlocking all of the achievements, your speed towards showing the world how the west was won will be increased significantly!

The Triple XP goodness is live right now so dive into the multiplayer free roaming mayhem of Red Dead Redemption, win the west and become legendary.

Got my level legendary status a few 3xp events ago, good to see them still putting these up regularly. Time for people to grind out that same hideout over and over.

Never a dull moment with RDR!!!
Job & A Social Life, achievements most gamers refuse to earn...therefore, their ratios are high.

Have game, but have never played it from my backlog. Is it worth popping in for a 3X weekend?
