If you're more inclined to drift around the old west instead of holing up in a hotel or ranch of choice, then fret not, Red Dead has a save feature just for you.

Much like in the first game, it would appear that camp fires will be coming back as a save feature for Redemption's prequel, albeit in a much, much prettier fashion. Just look at that skybox! It looks absolutely wonderful; certainly something that could give Skyrim a run for its money these days.

One of the more subtle elements about camp fires in the last Red Dead was that some often held a macabre association, with wayward travellers having sometimes fallen victim to the wilderness, criminals, or both. Here's hoping the sinister element returns along with them.
