Red Dead Redemption Playing Cards

Red Dead Redemption has been voted Game of the Year 2010 by many blogs, game sites, magazines, individuals, et al. And rightly so. Even though the game was released in May, 2010, just yesterday, some friends and I played it for 12 hours straight; it's the game that keeps on giving. And developers Rockstar knew exactly how to wheedle just a little bit more cash out of me by producing Red Dead Redemption playing cards, replicating the deck used in the game (apart from the branding). Here is the case, brand card and the back of one of the playing cards. Face cards to follow.

Cards and other nifty Red Dead things are available from the Rockstar Store.

Tim Burton's Playing Cards

I picked these up while visiting the Tim Burton exhibition held at the Australian Centre of the Moving Image earlier this year. I was told by a friend that all of the cards had their own individual pictures, and was a bit disapointed when I found out that only the face cards had Burton images and the same images were replicated across the suits. Also, I'd seen all of these sketches before in Burton's book "The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy". I think a really impressive deck could've been made using a larger range of images, e.g. character sketches of the Penguin, Beetlejuice, et al, but I guess there would've been some significant licensing laws to struggle through.
