Red Dead Revolver's story in Redemption's world is very much like the Trojan War in our world. It happened, but much of the story was embellished. Red Harlow (along with the other characters) likely existed, but not in the way Revolver portrays them.

Some of the best gaming memories I have involve playing this game after renting it from Blockbuster back in 2004. One night, while my mom was at the hospital (my little brother was just born that night), me and my dad were playing this game on the PS2 and we were yelling, laughing, and having a great time. I miss when gaming was about having fun with quality games and not throwing away your money on half-finished garbage games and microtransactions.

I still have fond memories of renting & beating Red Dead Revolver. The gameplay took some getting used to, as I wasn't skilled at shooters and had never seen anything like the Deadeye mechanic before. But man, after some practice, I LOVED it. Everything from the story (though, I admittedly didn't understand all of it at that age) to the characters, music and setting was fun and memorable. I felt like a Terminator in the Old West (if said Terminator was played by a younger Clint Eastwood). It was just about everything a kid could want in the classic cowboy power fantasy: Hunting bounties, stopping crimes (like the train robbery), exploring an old town, getting new weapons, winning shooting duels, feeling like an overall badass, etc. When Redemption first came out, I'd honestly forgotten all about Revolver. Then, lo and behold, I loved Redemption even more (except, I sadly never beat it and eventually moved on to other games). My sister bought R.D.R. 2, but I never got into it. It's hard to explain why, as I love everything about both those titles and agree that they improved on Revolver in every possible aspect. Perhaps the genre simply didn't resonate with me anymore (admittedly, I was never into old Spaghetti Western films)? Or, maybe it was Revolver's simpler foundation that kept my interest, whereas the Redemption titles are so much bigger and more complex? In any case, I'll always have a place in my heart for this franchise and am grateful that it's still going strong. I might give Redemption 2 another try someday and see if it recaptures those feelings I had for its predecessor. I wish Rockstar would remake Revolver (not just remaster), imagine what current technology could do for the adventures of Red Harlow?

I can imagine being a kid and playing it for the first time, I would have been just as satisfied, if not more so.

When it comes to wild west styled games, there are 5 that will always come to mind for me. Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2, Red Dead Revolver, Gun, and God Hand. I kinda wish that Redemption didn't overshadow the other 3 but when those 2 games are as good as they are, it's nearly impossible to not let that happen. Plus, they've earned that recognition beyond a shadow of a doubt. I think most people kinda see Revoler, Gun, and God Hand and confuse "not as good as" with "not good" which is a damn shame

Red dead redemption is my favorite game of all time but it wouldn’t have made as much sense if this hadn’t been thoroughly played first. You would never get how deeply spaghetti western it really all was in origin

I mentioned this game to a lot of people who love Redemption 1&2 and you'd be surprised by how many people who haven't heard of Revolver! I use to play multiplayer with my brother and my best friend back in the day and we activated a bot just to spice things up I just wish this game could return in some shape or form. Criminally underrated!

@@frankcastle8397 yeah, probably not. I like the idea specifically because it's so unlikely, but it would be a funny way to tie up the trilogy. As it stands now redemption and revolver are totally unrelated, except for the fact that it happened in the same world.

I believe in Redemption Red is just a folk tale. I Imagine rockstar wanted a different world because I believe they got the rights to Revolver late in it's Development. so the references to Red indicate he is only a story told by people. Which in my opinion is a good way to reference a legendary character like Red. Also Uncle is definitely not Red because he mentions nothing that Red Harlow did.

it's nice to see some folks still talk about this gem of a game today, even if its a small amount its still nice to know i ain't the only person on the planet who still thinks about it. probably the only game i've ever played that felt like i was inside a old skool spaghetti western! likely the game i can blame my 'love of all things western' on. you simplified the story a bit too much (for my liking), but then i guess this isn't a story summary lol otherwise a very good video about revolver, thank you for this. its a shame it gets overshadowed by the series sequels and often forgotten or ignored due to it not being canon (though i personally don't care what anyone says, its canon to me), or simply due to its age. really in my opinion, the best western game on the market before redemption came along, it just has this magic to it that can't be beat! one of the few games i'd unironically give a 10/10, and it sucks that it'll likely never get a sequel or remake, though you never know a remake could ruin it somehow. so maybe its for best. cheers

I think I've only owned a half dozen games in my life. Somewhat like you, it was a love for spaghetti westerns that got me into RDR2. I didn't even have a machine that would play it, so I bought a console. It seemed a bit expensive to pay that much just to play one game, but the amount of hours of entertainment I've gotten made it definitely worth it.

When RD2 dropped I was amazed at how so many people had no clue about RDR (OG) I can't help but to always say Revolver before realizing I made a huge mistake I get corrected as if this game was in a list of thing being associated with the Mandala effect. The Showdown mode to me felt sooooo lovely especially since I would kick ass with good ol' Sheriff Bartlett. Oh Xbox I miss your touch, your vibrations you passed along our bodies and mind. This is what made me REALLY enjoy westerns. Who knew? Please show the same love to my friends... Dear Revolver.

Jack's fate was intended to be ambiguous. If you talk to him in free roam he mentions wanting to retire after the contest. One of the writers confirmed he survived(sneaking off after protecting Red long enough for him to get through the secret passage, so he could retire in peace) and he was apparently supposed to be Landon Ricketss in the first draft of the Redemption Script.

This was one of the first games I ever played. I would always watch my older brother play games but this one had a pretty dang fun local multilayer so we'd play that a lot after my brother finished the story. That was until my mom got fed up with us playing it every waking hour, and she also found out it was Rated M. So she did what any mother would do and snapped the game in half and forced us to sell our PS2. It did us right though, I started playing outside more often. I played it again about 12 years later on the PS3 and it was just as incredible as I remember.

When this game came out I expected it to play more like the way Red Dead Redemption ended up playing. Of course GUN was basically the type of game was looking for but didn’t realize it was what it was at the time. With that being said Red Dead Revolver turned out to be very entertaining in its own right. The initial let down was quickly overcome.

I think Rockstar could really do something interesting (and make a ton more money) if they replace a Redemption 3, and instead make a Red Dead Revolver 2. It's all in the same universe and roughly same time period and location that eventually leads to a crossover game with related characters. Even more interesting, if the Harlows & Marstons become feuding families in the 1930's Dust Bowl/Great Depression.

I discovered a glitch playing red dead revolver when I was 10 .T this day I can't remember how I activated the glitch or if it happened randomly due to opening the PlayStation 2's disk tray but in the first town you can roam around in the during the story each time I finished talking to an npc their heads would double in size. And it stacked. Eventually the entire sky box was covered by the inside and outsides of these massive low poly heads with giant floating eyes too.

But I never got around to playing it. When RDR2 came out, I hadn't played a video game in years but I actually bought a console just to play it. Now I'm playing RDR2 again, enjoying it just as much as the first couple playthroughs, and I suppose I should try to find copies of the first two.
