Hint: Online XP Farming

During online free roam, go to a gang hideout and neutralize the enemies there. When reinforcements are sent, deal with them as well, then loot all the corpses.

After you nab the money and ammunition, leave the hideout and the enemies should respawn after a short while. You can repeat this process as much as you want.

Hint: Master Hunter Legendary Ranks (Multiplayer) & Character Unlocks

There is an easy way to get all the Legendary creature (killing 10 of one animal). When you explore the area they are in, lead all the animals to a nearby structure (or building).

For the wolves, there is a building on the hill. Now, this is the only one where they will actually come into the building because it is so run down, but there is a walkway/plank near the door. Stand on it, and shoot all the wolves, they can't get you.

The boars' hunting ground has the same with a run down half building (by the shoreline) but they won't attack you in the building.

The cougar grounds probably has the most difficult building. There is a house on the top of the hill. The best way to do this is have a buddy on horse lure them to your direction. When the cougars walk in front of the door/windows, shoot them.

The bears' hunting ground is probably the easiest of the bunch. There is a cabin, that has plenty of open area to shoot the bears from.

And for those who keep asking about unlocking women or legendary characters, those unlock with EXP points. There's no secret task, just build your ranks.

Hint: Infinite Honor

Note: You must be wearing the Elegant Suit for this to work. Find the least expensive poker game in town. Purposely get caught cheating, so that a "duel" will ensue. Wait for the "draw" sign to flash and aim at your opponent's right hand/arm in order to shoot their gun from their hand. This neat little trick will net you +100 Honor. Plus, its repeatable, since you can just keep getting caught "cheating" in poker.

Hint: No Reload

When you are low on ammo, simply enter Dead Eye mode to immediately restore your ammo without having to reload.

Re: Red Dead Redemption Cheats and Codes

Hint: Money Exploit

I just figured out how to make an easy $100 every 20 seconds early on in RDR. If you go to the knife game "Five Finger Filet" in Armadillo you can bet $100 max each game.

The button presses are always the same, so as long as you memorize the sequence it's a piece of cake. The sequence is:
- GREEN / A
- RED / B
- YELLOW / Y
- BLUE / X
- GREEN / A
- RED / B
- YELLOW / Y

(this pattern repeats). I just sat here for a minute or two and I'm already over $1,000. Handy if you want some quick cash early in the game.

Hint: Beating All Players in Poker in Armadillo

Note: This will satisfy the requirement for Scrap 3 of Walton's Gang outfit. First put on the Elegant suit(the one which lets you cheat in Poker. Go to Poker room in the back of the bar in Armadillo. Play a game and Cheat BUT LET THEM SEE YOU CHEATING. This will make you duel. Kill or disarm the player that challenges you for Honor or Fame.

After that there will only be 2 players left at the Poker table, play again and get caught CHEATING again. you duel again. On the Last Poker Player I'd advise NOT to cheat -- the last player is fast and catches you cheating easily.

Now you'll be playing 1 vs. 1. Use this pattern to win: Check or Call THEN Raise and the Opponent will Fold Every time. If you want the game to go faster and BUST the opponent out. On your First hand, raise then check or call then raise.

Cheat: Multiply Your Poker Winnings

This bug is easy to exploit, but hard to exploit CONTINUOUSLY.
1. Save your game near any poker table.
2. Play poker.
3. Go "all-in" immediately, and press RB to "Skip to your turn."
4. Did you win? If so, press B (to exit) then A (to confirm) VERY QUICKLY and as many times as you can (B, A, B, A, B, A). If not, load your game and repeat steps 2-4.

If done correctly you should hear the sound effect for leaving the poker game multiple times, and, if you wait a brief period, you will notice that your winnings (or even the $25 ante you gave to sit down) are given to you the same multiple of times you managed to press B, A before actually standing up. If you manage to out 2 people (all-in will remove players from the table) that's 75$ at the very start of the game given to your wallet up to 4 times!

Cheat: Force a Save, Anywhere, Anytime

Occasionally you may be killed by a cougar and returned to your last save after collecting a bunch of flowers, pelts and whatnot -- fear the reaper no more! If you buy two horse deeds and enter your item menu, you can select a deed to summon its respective horse. Each time you switch horse, your game automatically saves. Switch between deeds on the fly to save your game anytime, anywhere.

Alternately, you can simply change the Audio settings in the Options Menu and the game will save.

Re: Red Dead Redemption Cheats and Codes

Hint: Skip the Skinning

Kill an animal and hop on your horse. Park the horse over the carcass (look for the small, black X on the map that marks it) and hop off. When you get the prompt to skin the animal, the horse's presence will prevent the short cutscene from occurring. Occasionally you'll notice that a similar obstruction -- box or barrel -- will allow you to skip body-search cutscenes and the like.

Cheat: Access West Elizabeth / Tall Trees Area Early

There's a cliff and a waterfall in the far northern regions of New Austin -- just above the MacFarlane Ranch. Enter this area and you'll see "Tall Trees" appear on your screen. If you can manage to get arrested here you'll get carted off to Blackwater. From here you can access the full northern map. You'll need to auto save (see 'Save Anywhere' cheat) and die to return to the southern areas. If you buy the property in Manzanita, it will prevent you from doing this. However, it is possible to hop the unfinished bridge in Thieves' Landing to get back.
