There is a LOT to do in this game. One of the more interesting things is to read the daily newspapers being sold in the streets. Here is an announcement made in one of them:
The marriage is announced to be solemnized of Miss Mollie Brannigan, daughter of Cole and Ella Brannigan, to Mr Melvin Brannigan, son of Cole and Ella Brannigan
Good to see Rockstar has kept in some humor. Actually, this game is pretty humorous altogether.
The newspapers make me chuckle. I haven’t seen that particular announcement.
I had to read that a couple of times before I got it.
I’m ashamed to admit I Googled “Brannigan,” figuring I missed some Old Western reference.
Another one that I found by accident–and it’s a trophy/achievement!
It’s called Dastardly. It involves a train and a hogtied woman.
I accidentally dropped her trying to beat a train while walking over a track. (I seriously didn’t hear it coming. Of course he was whistling like crazy, but I was zoning out and not thinking I was anywhere near the tracks).
It made me snicker.
And I’ve been playing the game as honorable as possible. I guess I’ll give John that one. Nobody’s perfect.
