Red Dead Redemption system link problems patched

Much like a surreptitious gaggle of programming ninjas, Rockstar recently swooped into the code of your copy of Red Dead Redemption for Xbox 360, and remedied a problem you likely didn't know you had. Apparently, players who attempted to play the game's multiplayer component over system link were having some trouble doing so. In like, the first nine hours the game was available.

Rockstar Tweeted yesterday that a patch had been put into place which fixes the System Link snafu, so if you you were one of the eight people who attempted to use that feature between yesterday morning and yesterday evening, then it's now safe to go give it another shot. Also, here's a great, informative article about the Internet. Yeah, apparently it's this new thing that lets you play games with your friends without having to suffer their actual physical adjacence.
