    Despite its gameplay flaws, Red Dead Redemption is a classic on seventh gen consoles. Its well-crafted characters and script are among the era's best. It's a technological marvel with meticulous attention to detail. While the gameplay may require adaptation on the player's part, it's worth it because Red Dead Redemption's overall experience is greater than the sum of its individual parts.

    If you were hoping for a more robust re-release, sadly, this isn’t that. It’s hard to tell if Rockstar will ever put in the time and money needed to do justice to a Red Dead re-release. But even if they don’t, at least we now have the original classic playable on all modern consoles.

    It’s undeniable that Red Dead Redemption remains as one of the best open world videogames ever, but this compilation of the game and Undead Nightmare for PS4 and Switch has nothing remarkable about it.

    This is still mostly the same old game. And selling that old game for $50, with no 60fps option or visual enhancements, feels silly. Sure, it comes with Undead Nightmare—which is great and still a spooky joy to play in 2023—but the math probably won’t make sense for most folks.

    $50 for a 13 years old game.
    And it's not even a remake or a remaster.
    Rockstar is well on its way to becoming the new EA.

    $50? You should be paying ME to play this ancient port.
    These companies are cashing out consumer trust and loyalty. It's time we stop helping them.
