    Make no mistake: this is the best game that Rockstar have created since GTA: San Andreas. Almost everything in this game is perfect, and even now I find myself returning to this masterpiece once in a while. The ultimate western game that is 200% worthy of your time and interest, and I hope that it will be a fundamental for the future Wild West/western-themed games.

I thought Rockstar started to loose their way, falling into repetition with the Grand Theft Auto series after San Andreas, and this game showed just how amazing Rockstar is. From the opening scene the tone is set with an incredable haunting score. You witness high brow passengers on a train talk of how great it will be to finally bring civilization to these savages. "They may have lost their land, but they've gained everything else." "Yes they live like animals, but they're happier now." A young lady question's her father's religious beliefs as it doesn't seem to make sense that an innocent would go to hell unless they receive communion. It's these types of questions that we ask ourselves through the incredable well written and engaging narrative. What is moral? What odds are we up against? Life isn't so black and white. The gameplay is top notch for its time, the characters are layered from comical, to sad. Theres a biting satire to Rockstar's work, yet the ending left me more emotional than any video game I can remember.
    In 2010 the game looked beautiful. It's dated now, but on a recent play through I still felt the beauty of the crafted sunsets, to the cool shade beneath "Tall Trees." I can't wait for the second one to come out next week!

    One of the best games from Rockstar. An engaging story-telling, characters and immersive world makes it the best western game ever made. This game is worth buying PS3.

I've upgraded to PS4 and played many more games since, just recently Witcher 3 w/ all add ons, but nothing really ever left quite the impression on me than RDR. There are two moments that will stick with me forever: the first when you unlock a new part of the map, in my case at dusk of dawn, and you ride along a trail and the music wails. I'm not sure if that's a memorable moment for anyone else, but it invoked ALL the wonderful clichees about Westerns all at once, and made you FEEL them. And then i bawled my eyes out when the flawed character in desperate need of redemption and meaning to his life is cut short just when he seemingly finally achieved it. Poetic justice, but what poetry is involved. I loved this game. Thanks to the writers. You created a world and a character that i haven't found in any other game since. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game remains my favourite game of all time, despite lots of more recent work by Rockstar Games, Naughty Dog, etc. For its time, it had an incredible sense of atmosphere, helped by a wonderful score. Due to its wonderous design it really felt like you were a lone ranger, having to travel throughout the dangerous wild west. It was the first game to ever make me cry (only three others have done so since) due to the attachment I had to John by the end of the game. Free roam online with my friends was also a blast and some of the most fun I've ever had. I think this was partly due to the fundamental freedom of aiming weapons you had on horseback while still being able to move fast, enabled by a good controller scheme. If RDR 2 can be as good as this was at the time, the world will have to wait for me while I play it. Expand

    Red Dead tem uma história fenomenal, com um ótimo protagonista e outros ótimos personagens que também são importantes na história, você consegue sentir um carinho por tal personagem, você consegue entender as motivações do outro personagem, você consegue sentir ódio do vilão, esse jogo traz um roteiro recheado de personagens memoráveis, reviravoltas, emoções, vingança, enfim, simplesmente incrível.
    O jogo tem uma boa trilha sonora, um bom gameplay (que serviu de inspiração pra GTA V), um cenário lindo, vários colecionáveis e missões secundárias pra fazer por aí, coisas que se esperam de um mundo aberto da Rockstar.
    Na minha humilde opinião, esse jogo deixa qualquer outro jogo da franquia GTA no chinelo, vale e vale MUITO joga-lo.

My son saw the game on the PS3 and commented it looked better than Fortnite, which is played on the PS4 Pro. This is of course not a objective statement, but it tells a bit how it is. I love the dynamic weather and the day and night changes. For me the good thing is that it is not too difficult to play. Because the game is so long, you need to progress and not be stuck in one mission for 4 nights. Expand

The story of former outlaw, John Marston, Red Dead Redemption takes players on a great adventure across the American frontier. Utilizing Rockstar's proprietary Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE), Red Dead Redemption features an open-world environment for players to explore, including frontier towns, rolling prairies teeming with wildlife, and perilous mountain passes - each packed with an endless flow of varied distractions. Along the way, players experience the heat of gunfights and battles, meet a host of unique characters, struggle against the harshness of one of the world’s last remaining wildernesses, and ultimately pick their own precarious path through an epic story about the death of the Wild West and the gunslingers that inhabited it.

    After finally completing Red Dead Redemption I have these things to say. Other than a few glitches, there is absolutely nothing wrong with red dead redemption. For a game 10 years old the graphics, music and gameplay isn't even dated which I find amazing. We are just getting started. Red dead follows John Marston and his conquest to earn back his family from the US government, to do so he must hunt down his fellow gang members who betrayed him and left him for dead. The story starts when John is saved by Bonnie MacFarlane a local rancher, she helps John and soon John begins his epic conquest. In this amazing 10/10 story, John meets new people such as the Marshall, Seth, Irish, N.W Dickens and more, John continues to hunt down the gang members and eventually it leads him to Mexico. Mexico was a big part of the story and I was completely blown away by the music, story and gameplay there. Eventually John gets back to America and kills the last member of his gang. The ending half of Red Dead in my honest to god opinion, is the greatest video game ending half in video game history. John returns to his family and everything seems good, and spends quality time with his family, however the game makes the daring decision to kill Marston, yet somehow, they pull it off perfectly. Even for a game that is ten years old, online mode is still active and booming with fun. Hunting and shooting mechanics are flawless. The graphics for its age are again, amazing. The game excels at putting you in Johns shoes and making you feel like you are really there, in 1911. Even for a game that is ten years old, I found myself playing it more than every new game I have on my console. Rockstar games made a masterpiece, and I got it for ten dollars yet it beats games I've spent 100 dollars on. Strongly recommended for everyone. Warning you might cry.

Die Geschichte um JohnRed Dead Redemption ist neben GTA5 sicherlich das ambitionierteste Open World Adventure der PS3 Ära. Was dieses Spiel letztlich so faszinierend macht, ist die unglaublich lebendige und authentische Wildwest Atmosphäre die Rockstar hier geschaffen hat. Gerade die ersten Stunden des Games, wo noch alles neu und frisch ist, ziehen den Spieler wie magisch in den Bann. Die Geschichte um John Marlston, einem ehemaligen Outlaw, der sich eigentlich bereits zur Ruhe gesetzt hatte, seiner Vergangenheit letztlich aber doch nicht entfliehen kann, ist hervorragend gewählt, um das Bild einer Zeit zu malen, in der alles im Umbruch ist. Zudem bringt Rockstar die Geschichte um Marlston auf eine eher überraschende Weise zu ihrem Ende, die wieder einmal davon zeugt, dass Rockstar keine Scheu hat Dinge auch mal anders zu machen. Dass man nicht einfach bedienen will, was das Genre erwartet, sondern die Geschichten erzählen will, auf die man auch Bock hat.

    Das Questdesign ist auch in RDR hervorragend gelungen, da sehr abwechslungsreich, und lebt nicht zuletzt auch von seinen charakterstarken NPCs. Auch hinsichtlich der Gameplaymechaniken erlaubt sich Rockstar keine wirklichen Schnitzer. Gut, nicht alles ist wirklich intuitiv gelöst, bei manchen Mechaniken fragt man sich schon, ob man das nicht eleganter hätte umsetzen können. Dennoch, im Gegensatz zu einem GTA5 spielt sich Red Dead durchgehend flüssig. Allerdings werden Quests, Rockstar typisch, weiter als eigene Kapitel behandelt. Verkackt man irgendwo, hat dies oft ein "Mission failed" zur Folge und die Aktion wird von vorne gestartet. Die Freiheit aktueller PS4 Open World Titel, wo man aus Missionen im Zweifel auch einfach flüchten, und diese später wieder aufnehmen kann, die hat man bei Red Dead Redemption nicht.

    Neben L.A. Noire ist Red Dead Redemption sicherlich die intensivste Spielerfahrung, die Rockstar Games bisher realisiert hat. Schade dass es, im Gegensatz zu GTA5 und L.A. Noire, keine Remaster Version des Titels für die PS4 gibt. Da RDR2 jedoch bereits in den Startlöchern steht, sei Rockstar dies einmal verziehen.

    RDR's open-world was the most lived-in, breathing open world I had every played at the time. The saloons, the open desert, the scattered outposts all had character. Even though there was not much to interact with between checkpoints, not once did I feel bored traversing the map. It kept me engaged with the little details - the sunsets, the sand kicking at end of a gallop, the flora & fauna to name a few.

    The characters and dialogues were excellent. This game had some of the most memorable side characters in a video game. Combine that with a compelling redemption storyline and you have a campaign that will keep you invested throughout the playtime. The dead-eye mechanic was a lot of fun and really made the player feel like a gunslinger. The rest of the gameplay was nothing groundbreaking but worked well enough to keep you engaged.

    I was never a fan of the Western setting but decided to pick up RDR because, well, it's a Rockstar game. They have a habit of creating ground-breaking video games and RDR was no exception To this day, it is still my favorite R* game and one of the greatest games I have ever played.

    A must-play.

    Everything Red Dead 2 gets right, is because of this game. Back in 2010 no one expected this. It was so ahead of it's time and even now, I would say it's more impressive than most games today. The level of story telling and world building that Tockstar provides here is incredible. My only complaint is, in the beginning and the end, the rancher stuff gets pretty boring. That never made me want to stop playing. The story itself is so interesting and amazing that I could heard cattle for 15 hours straight just to see how it ends. The conclusion is amazing. I think most people know now and I knew myself but it still hit me a lot harder than I expected.

    The gameplay is fantastic as well. I even think the side missions are phenomenal! They add a different story that goes on for most of the game. These missions aren't one and done. For most of them you have to go back a few days later to progress the mission. It's an incredible world building technique that I wish I saw done more.

    This is definitely Rockstars best to date.

Como puntos negativos: algunas misiones secundarias son de recadero (ir y volver) y quizá se nota algo anticuado en este apartado actualmente por las mecánicas algo simples y escasas. A pesar de ello, personalmente Red Dead Redemption me ha conseguido transmitir con su historia y su argumento una empatía hacía diversos personajes, algo que no consigue cualquier juego.

    A gta in the west. That's bad? No, quite the opposite. The John Marston story is a journey in every sense. As the rest of the characters know him, we know him too, his new friends, people who ask him for favors in exchange for helping him, who betray him, his family and his gang.

    Winner of more than 160 goty awards, goty 2011.

    A gta in the west. That's bad? No, quite the opposite.

    The John Marston story is a journey in every sense.
    As the rest of the characters know him, we know him too, his new friends, people who ask him for favors in exchange for helping him, who betray him, his family and his gang.

    The game takes you around the map through the story in an incredible way that feels like separate chapters, each with a lot of personality.

    The main characters, the secondary characters that are as good as the first ones, the secondary missions with various missions, the random events, collectibles, everything is at the highest level of rockstar and the west is felt everywhere.

    The first ending of a video game that made me cry and its last mission that made me laugh and redeem us

    Incredible details again in rockstar like the blood darkens and the crows arrive, different dialogues if the mission is failed, a b.s.o. constant and that each song could be the main one. Now you can repeat missions like in tbogt.

    It has some beautiful landscapes with a typical western lighting, The horse feels great for its time with a forceful gameplay. The physics are as good or better than in gta iv and better i.a.

    It never came out for pc but if you didn't play it in its day, buy a ps3, xbox 360, ps now, xbox one s, s / x series but play it.

    Another rockstar masterpiece. In addition, the online with less content than the current ones managed to be even better with those missions, and modes and the goty version cannot be missing in your collection

    I found myself completing the stranger missions (Side quests) because of how unique all the characters were, yes some were fetch quests but the story is worth completing them. The characters you meet all leave a lasting impression no matter how brief the encounter. A few of my favorites were a crazy old grave robber, a cannibal & a snake oil merchant.

    I played this on release and recently replayed it after playing the second installment, and it's just as good as I remember it. You can easily spend 50+ hours on this game, and once you complete that you could move onto the DLC zombie title Undead nightmare.

    Rockstar did a good job with this Wild West game. John Marston is a great character to play as. The story is good and the world feels authentic. Even the side quests shouldn’t be past in this game. It’s a masterpiece in storytelling and world building.

The number of things you can do in the game is also very good, I spent hours walking around the map and completing various secondary missions that did have their degree of difficulty. Well deserved that it won the GOTY.

It's fully playable with keyboard/mouse, in case anyone wants to try. Overall this game has this late 2000s/early 2010s games feeling/atmosphere and i love it. GTA 4 has similar vibe.

The alternate activities available are simply engrossing. The only real viable complaints I have is their light levels are way off at night, even after adjusting your monitor it's very hard to see more than a few feet in front of your character, might be realistic, but it's not great for gameplay. They also commit the cardinal sin of open world gaming by making it instant death to go into the water, near as I can tell, simply to cordone off areas in the beginning. I don't like those things, but right now I don't care, it's just too awesome to be overly bothered by them. Expand

The old west is brought to life again in this frankly, epic game. The story mission is suitably long, although the ending is questionable on how good it is, the main single player campaign is very good. The only problems seen with the single player is the fact the game is quite glitched, and during a 6 hour bashing session of this game, there were around 1 glitch/ freeze per hour, which is bearable, however very frustrating when you're in the middle of a mission and end up restarting the ps3. This is the reason that the game, personally for me, is just kept off the 10/10 mark. Moving onto the multi player, the multi player is deep, and keeps you occupied well after the single player is completed, the attraction of getting better horses and guns keeps you interested, as well as the endless activities and things for you to do. This game is especially good when you have a few mates to make havoc with. Overall then, this game is a brilliant buy, i would definitely recommend it, as in my mind it is way above the quality of GTA 4, thanks to the endless tasks to complete, and the knowledge that the open plains on the map are always full of life gives a warm feeling to the game. I definitely recommend, it's an excellent buy! Expand
