GameSpot Reviews - Red Dead Redemption Video Review

[@GhostMotley]

Wish they remade this game for XO, PS4 and released it on PC. One of the best games ever made.

[@yourcrapp]

we dont want a remake, we want red dead redemption 2

[@GhostMotley]

yourcrapp Even better, a remake and Red Dead Redemption 2

[@yourcrapp]

GhostMotleyXT Amen brother! that would be awesome!

[@cyberpunk7702]

GhostMotleyXT I do want a RDD 2, but I will buy the remake one if they actually do it.

[@adamgreensides948]

I've heard alot of different things over the past few months hinting at a remaster and a sequel possibly e3 something might be revealed because rockstar has nothing at the moment it and I know there supposed to be saying what's next at e3

[@nelsonbrown7358]

One of the Best Games ever made. Do I have to say much. This is a 10/10 for sure

[@aaoppe]

Not only is RDR the best game Rockstar has ever produced, it has also aged incredibly well. I've been playing skyrim on steroid-mods for almost a year now, and this still looks good on the PS3...

[@jameswhite5126]

Per Eriksen Listen to TOM LEYKIS!

[@mrshadwoxz9981]

Per Eriksen I don't think so GTA SA is obviously the best R* game

[@kummakummakummakummakummac8606]

Per Eriksen - RDR is one of the greatest games i have ever played but I have to agree withMrShadwoxz that San Andreas is Rockstars best.

[@ijustwantmyphonecall6947]

@@kummakummakummakummakummac8606 wrong lol

[@apictureoffunction]

@@mrshadwoxz9981 no it isn't, stop being blinded by nostalgia. SA is objectively worse in every way than every game R* has released since. It was fun for it's time but it sure as fuck doesn't hold up anymore, if you stopped whacking off over SA because it had a stats chart you'd realize that so did GTA 5, and it did it for 3 separate characters too

[@6pakUnited]

How can you not love this game?

[@Pedro_Le_Chef]

check thinreaper's review , you can't not love the game unless you nitpick.

[@anasshahid224]

Facts 😊

[@chrispark3203]

One of the best games I have ever played!

[@xptypo123]

On my opinion best game this generation and one of the best games ever. I will never forget it!

[@draconica1985]

Back when gamespot reviews made sense.

[@anasshahid224]

Red Dead Redemption is an absolute masterpiece, the story is one of the most powerful ones I have ever seen in a game, you could spend hours upon hours exploring the gorgeous world, no game since has come close to it in my opinion, Rockstar Games are amazing developers, one of my personal favorite game of all time, a timeless classic 👏👏👏👏 Really hope it gets remade for current gen consoles 😊

[@lazert8144]

Better than GTA V

[@jedd6558]

Yes

[@amarevanhook7453]

Both fantastic games

[@nate1735]

Yes

[@TheFly212]

Top ten game of this generation. Just started replaying it for the first time since summer of '10 it's so fun and engaging in both a narrative and gameplay area.. Great game.

[@ft9640]

best game ever

[@RegBeta]

This is the most detailed review for Red Dead Redemption I've seen period. GODDAMN IT now I need to get a PS3 or 360 by the end of this year, to play this awesome game!

[@supermariodmac]

This is such a fun game, it`s awesome

[@SlimRhyno]

What a solid vid.rev! Truthfully, I tend to prefer them being a fair bit shorter; but this was a stellar one!! Thanks, and kudos to all involved

[@stunnasrr]

I played the entire game with one horse

[@ppssppandroidgaming7073]

Me too😍

[@Pedro_Le_Chef]

let me guess , the war horse .

[@TheGreatAton]

just got it today man i love watching reviews for games i already have

[@publicsponge2696]

this game is just awesome

[@badboy0510]

@blindiris22 im currently on my 3rd time playing. You'll play the single player, then play the rest of the side missions, then you'll want to go to the multiplayer, then you'll want to level up, get the achievements, unlock all the outfits. This is a game you are going to be playing over and over again. With ur friends, by urself, the missions never get repetitive, plot line is sweet. amazing game.

[@PumpkinSmasher79]

Kicked a dog. Dog bit back. Dog got shot. *-50 Fame*

[@IvanTorresBntz]

you just can't kill a dog, is wrong in any level.

[@Pedro_Le_Chef]

whistle near a dog , dog follows you.

[@Fass47]

@blindiris22 no, after you done you can do stranger task and do challenges and unlock clothes.

[@jassingh8369]

best game ever?

[@Pedro_Le_Chef]

best game ever

[@JimShadyUK]

@RajonRondoooooo I bought this game a couple of weeks ago and I can't stop playing it. I haven't heard about a new one, but you will honestly not regret buying this. There is so much stuff to do - I ride out into the wilderness just to see what will happen, because something always does! Let's see - I'm enjoying it as much as I enjoyed GTA3 on the PS2, if not more. I think that's pretty high praise!

[@thecowardford]

I remember buying this game on release in 2010. My friend stole it a year later but Xbox just had a digital sale for it and I got it for $20 on demand. Replaying through is even more fun than the first time I had with it.

[@LiquidEvolva]

@xxBIoodBIadexx wrong. Spagetti westerns were called that way because they were made by Italians although they have american actors as long as italian ones. Movies like "Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo"(the good, the bad and the ugly) or "Per qualche dollaro in più" (For a few bucks more) or even "C'era una volta il West" (Once upon a time in the west) all have american actors but they are spagetti westerns.

[@arunbhandari2614]

This was the first game I bought with ps3 and I fell in love with gaming .

[@Umberman]

That one stranger mission with the flower guy, the ending scared the shit out of me. It cannot be unseen 0.o

[@gtfokthxdubladoi]

@MrTURBOJOHN 1.PS3 is cheap for running almost any game. 2.I want to refer here to the exclusives.For example GT5 looks better than ANY PC game. 3.Agree here , but I personally prefer the controller than the mouse. 4.A few Seconds , I'm using a wireless keyboard. Thank you.

[@Dextwoothree]

Awesome review, was this played on X360 or PS3?

[@Fry-]

@Oasics93 It will eventually.

[@Dextwoothree]

Bandana to hide your identity... God I love this sort of attention to detail. Anyway, is there any major difference between X360 and PS3 versions of RDR controlling-wise? I mean, do they both control about the same?

[@360SIC]

@RamboSonik its the bandito outfit you get it later on in the game

[@Dreditz1]

I really want to play this game, but chances are they are going to release a GOTY edition in the next couple of months. So which system should I get it for? PS3 or 360? I don't have a preference; I just want the one that looks best/plays the smoothest.

[@gtfokthxdubladoi]

@MrSV991 On the PS3 you can control everything more acurate.For example the acceleration of a car or the steering.On the keyboard it's very hard to drive in some games...

[@allenfrankin]

@LargeTalons666 but thats only if you do none of the side missions. If you do those, the game is like 23-27 hours

[@karmaloni]

is this game recommended for me to buy and can u skip any of the cutscenes that may be offensive?

[@DannyPeel]

Just ordered this today for £19.99, been holding off on it for a while, excited to try it.

[@The_Chimera]

Which is the better game worth purchasing, Mass Effect 2 , or Red Dead Redemption?

[@gtfokthxdubladoi]

@MrTURBOJOHN That's true too , but I heard that in the future , they will try to make ALL the games premium.And by the way , if u take a photo with a premium car is pretty hard to say it's a game.

[@BrandonBoyPH]

How about the trophies? Is it hard to get the platinum?

[@Elchapa130]

does this game get boring fast? i need help so i can see if im going to buy it

[@MrRobinDP]

@TheMossad921 there is tons of things to do like: bounty huntung, animal hunting, horse capturning/riding/...,playing poker,blackjack,...,random events,herd breeding,.... You can have multiple outfits like lawmen suit, american army uniform, rancher clothes and you can wear some separate clothes like a poncho, mexican hat, bandana,....

[@nonnynay]

@Crocksmeat It's absolutely worth buying. Put it this way. I bought Assassins Creed Brotherhood and played it for about 20 hours. I must've played Red Dead for well over 100. I liked the last Assassins Creed but there's very little to do compared with this.

[@NiceGuy1405]

I got this game today from a car boot sale for £6, still sealed and brand new !!! What a great find that was =)

[@NezarSamy95]

@spookerlee u need the gold membership to play anything online

[@Drheal24]

@wizeguy26 u unlock characters as u level up and money in multiplayer counts as ur score

[@fezzard]

@virtuafighterman so red from revolver is marston here in redemption??

[@Altar360]

@whtisurproblem that's precisely what many of the audience doesn't like. They really don't get the difference between "I disagree" and "You're just plain wrong". Seriously, if they hate IGN so much then they should just not watch it. I watch any and all reviews to have a general view of what the various critics think wile also checking out forums. In other words, cudos to you for expanding your options

[@SlimYabby]

@brokrishnan nope it goes like this: 1.Grand Theft Auto IV 2.Red Dead Redemption 3. L.A. Noire

[@scaredypicker]

Completed GTA IV and then immediately started playing this again. Both amazing games.

[@Michaelsully1009]

@ichstim Its worth to buy it always. The story is amazing, the landscape beautiful, and the multiplayer community still VERY active.

[@FirestoneX]

the "Dead Eye" mechanic looks different on this video then when I play. Is it different for Xbox and PS3, a patch update, or am I missing something?

[@Faffy3Loves_chu]

@WorgenInATopHat if you did get it what would it be on Xbox360 or ps3

[@rfhtje]

@freddyzcount90 You have to go in the very north and northeast and walk across the river there. So the river that springs in tall trees and goes into the lake by the great plains. If you move around there you will somtimes see beavers there. that's what i did, hope it helps

[@NinjaTyler]

@pofty it wasnt in multiplayer fir the same reason as no lasso, there were just way too many bugs and frame rate issues

[@wizeguy26]

can u make a person in multiplayer or do u get a random character? and do you still earn money in that mode?

[@CorpralDunn]

Should I get it now? Even though it came out in 2010?

[@ribenawrath]

this is my fav game of all time. It's so complete. I still spend a lot of time on it, and I completed the story months ago.

[@y05077]

after you finish the game and the credits are done do you go back into the game world with all the side quests and stuff or does it have a fallout 3 ending where you cant go back after the story is finished

[@SonNGoha]

@OutPunchedProduction the games always have english version, spain, so on.. this as the same option??

[@blurr82]

Kevin Vanord and Justin Calvert actually inspire me into writing reviews.

[@starwars910]

@Busen2000 hell ya lol the multiplayer doesn't lag and the story is very very capturing (It grows on you). Get it and do rockstar a favor

[@MrWho9834]

@AwesomePossum5 it actually was only four years after the main story I think. Even though the son looks like he's in his late 20s, the grave marker for his mom, I think, says 1915 and it's a new marker so i'm guessing that's the year you play in.

[@slimchance87]

Is their still a strong multiplayer community? Is it still possible to platinum?

[@SuperMicklovin]

@RapidShot48 it is. mp server could use some work though

[@mrbobby331]

i know right. the quality of both there games are incredible!

[@cykhorrami]

Ohh I get what you mean. They said stealth would be back a lot in ac4. But in ac3 there was stealth but people rarley used it, it's hard, a lot of the time pointless, a lot easier going into a all out fight. But I do agree with most of what you said. AC1 and 2 had pretty good stealth.

[@Dannyboy90ify]

@Hal0Prodigy because it´s a review not a commercial...

[@hyun4ever362]

I'm getting this game in a few days and I can't wait,but I'm also kinda worried cos I've never been a huge Western fan and the sountrack doesn't sound like something I'll hugely love. The good thing is though,that it does have an open world and undead stuff plus most people say it's a masterpiece,so I bet it's gonna be a lot of fun.

[@jonathansharp4469]

Hyun4eveR On a Xbox 360 is the way to go, i know this by swapping my PS3 edition of the game which has undead on it aswell.... Its the game of the year edition.

[@hyun4ever362]

Well that's good to hear cos I got an Xbox 360. Oh,I got one question,if you don't mind: Does this game have a difficulty setting?

[@jonathansharp4469]

Normal & Hardcore.

[@hyun4ever362]

Thanks :D

[@AssClapCowboy]

you and i are completely different people its crazy. huge western fan, favorite video game soundtrack ever. but i've never been big into open world games or zombies, however, red dead is still my favorite game of all time!

[@AwesomePossum5]

@bradsecor yea it was really sad when John Marston got killed during the final fight, and then you have to play as his son Jack, except if you thing about it, it doesn't make sense how time passes about 20 years, and yet the landscape and towns are all the exact same as before, so in 1931, these towns didn't exist anymore, so that's kinda dumb, but other than that this game is the best game I have ever played.

[@ALC-NY]

either they didn't explain well or I fail at paying attention to the popups on the top.. I still don't know how to use dead eye targeting. anyone care to tell me the controls?

[@Mercs2fan]

Do you have the ability to replay missions once you complete the game?

[@Chiquelhotdb]

How do you put that hat? 2:13

[@CAP1997FURACAO]

should i get this one or assasins creed brotherhood?

[@bob22222222222222100]

@brokrishnan certainly la noire, but idk about gta 4. i think they are about the same

[@RajonRondoooooo]

so i have ps3, and i rlly want this game, will the be a new one coming out soon?

[@iViCMychael]

will this game cause the red ring or yellow light of death

[@Jamesscalise]

How do you have a duel without killing the guy? I can't figure out how to just disarm.

[@Teixas941]

@sithassassin96 it depends in what you are looking for...between mgs4 and rdr i would choose rdr. but if u want a game to play manly in the internet..choose battlefield

[@thefuturefooty]

i got £35 and i was wondering should i get la noire or infamous 2?

[@generictoasterstroodle1080]

Red dead redemption is by far the best western game out there. It might even be one of the best last gen games too. And we can’t forget about the undead nightmare dlc. By far my favorite dlc in any game.

[@RapidShot48]

Do people still play this online? And do u need dlc to go online? I rly wanna get this one for m bday

[@AwesomePossum5]

@MrWho9834 it's actually 1914, but I looked that up on the internet, so it makes a little bit of sense, but yea he looks so old

[@DonHickory]

@lemonsodumb it depends on what kind of games u play usually

[@Blackhammer95]

red dead redemption, you have taken away the many hours of sleep i needed. i love u for that

[@Dagger_323]

Well it's definitely challenging if you want to complete everything and get 100% completion...that was definitely one of the most time-consuming and difficult challenges that I've tackled as a gamer, but definitely worth it.

[@RajonRondoooooo]

how are the graphics as well?

[@Envy_me94]

@SirChubblesSteen what so they look better on xbox?

[@P4nzerk93]

Does gravity affect bullets in this game?

[@AwesomePossum5]

@bradsecor yeah, even after the beating the game, there's still some fun stuff to do, but I wish that stuff did change afterwards, but its alright

[@SonNGoha]

in this game you can choose how many languages to play??

[@lemonsodumb]

i've never owned a gta or red dead game. do you think i will like it?

[@reichmise]

@P4nzerk93 yes it does u can tell espically when shooting birds or shooting with a sniper rifle

[@skeliskull]

how do you know they arent going to?

[@fezzard]

is this a prequel or a sequel or red dead revolver?

[@apictureoffunction]

I'm on my second playthrough of the sequel right now and I had forgotten how addicting it is. RDR2 is definitely one of the best games of the PS4/Xbox One generation

[@spookerlee]

erm.... do u need a xbox gold membership to play the multiplayer???

[@freddyzcount90]

Does anybody know where the hell I can find BEAVER FUR? I've searched alot at Thieves Landing, but I just can't seem to find it!

[@ztf000]

You’d do better around the river near tall trees😂

[@danpilot13]

I just ordered it off Amazon!!!! Can't wait! :) Although I WISH it was available on PC :(

[@omg101man]

should i sell black ops and buy this???? need suggestions please

[@WiliamKali]

Damn i can't wait to get home and play this! I'm gonna lasso everything in sight. Do you think you can lasso dogs?
