Red Dead Revolver is a true "Wild West" story. Red Dead Redemption and RDR2 are not about the wild west, they are about the changing time between wild west and tamed west into civilization.

Red dead revolver is a spaghetti western, feels more like the classical western movies with simple moral lines and cowboys having attitudes similar to knights in Arthurian legends. Red dead redemption is more like the subversion of that.

Fun fact: Red Dead Revolver was initially owned by Capcom as they were the publishers of Angel Studio, the developers behind the game. At first the game was supposed to be a more Japanese style arcade shooter, but after Take Two bought the studio and rebranded it as Rockstar San Diego, they reworked the game into what it is now.

This game was paying homage to all the legendary Spaghetti Westerns that had a cultural impact during the 1960s and 1970s. At the time, the developers gained the rights to some of the musical scores from said spaghetti westerns to create an immersive experience. The main theme is the main theme from Lo Chiamavano King, The tutorial section is entitled "Jackie" from the Minnesota Clay. Even some of the characters are nods to iconic spaghetti western characters. Mister Black for instance was based off Franco Nero's Django since he has a gatling gun in his coffin. While not a western reference, Mister Kelly is based on Leon the Professional. Overall, this is a really fun game and I really wish they would go back and attempt a remaster of this.

Red Harlow is spoken about/hinted at all through both RDR games, but more like a legend. Like the events of RD Revolver were highly exaggerated.

[@twotatanka5396]

That’s actually the only red dead game I played before rdr2. Me and a friend stayed up all night switching off missions till we beat it. The boss fights were awesome

[@chayito1994]

This is so nostalgic cause I remember playing this when I was like 4 on the ps2

[@ThortheMightyOne]

I remember seeing this game in a game informer when I was around 9 -10 I begged my parents to get it and they found it on ebay. I played the hell outta it had everyone but Mr Kelley because he was too fast. Found the game was on ps4 and got it for $10 a few years ago. I was so sad that the only references to the game were in like dlc characters for multi-player. Also long live the best character Jack Swift.

LOVED this game as a kid. The whistling tune soundtrack is something I still do randomly today 😅 Favorite line is, "Fill em full of led" and "Ayyye Dios mio."

[@TidusX16]

Hell yeah! I loved this game! Such a spaghetti western cheese that is so much fun. Plus the music was just classic.

I loved this game so much, I remember all the previews before it came out at first it was trying to be a different type of game and they changed it alot but damn I loved it, unlocked everything and played it to hell and back.

Man, I played so much of this game with my brother and cousins. It was so cool to unlock new characters to use in multiplayer. I always used the Buffalo soldier and one of my cousins was always Shadow Wolf. Good good times.

[@YuniorGamboa]

This game was so much fun back in the day Just a classic

[@MeMrMellow]

My dad had this game for ps2 and my brother and I were so hyped to play it but it would load for ever so we never had the change to play it🥲🥲 the loading is nostalgic at least hahaha

[@JLUX100]

I used to Shred this game smoking bongs with my buddies all the time. Some of the missions actually were hard as hell near the end of the game! Super fun game and funny lines and exciting story line

[@mellomoose_]

its such a good game to smoke and play

[@anthonyscott5376]

The Red Dead Series is so solid. Edit: I swear that the lip syncing in this game is better than odyssey.

[@Fame_Rate]

AC lost me on origins. the world was great but somehow it wasnt fun at all

[@anthonyscott5376]

@@Fame_Rate weird. I loved origins. I thought odyssey was boring. And I think that valhalla is the worst game ever crested

[@thegrimsleeper07]

I wish we could have an RDR-movie series. Or a show series. I even got an idea: First there's RDRI as a startup movie with RDRII as an obvious sequel. And then there's this mini series called: "Tales of the Wild West/Tales of the Red" and it's about Red Harlow and other tales about the RDR-World like - famous Gunslingers, Black Belle, Billy Midnight, Emmet Granger and of course Jim "Boy" Calloway - storys about Dutch VanderLinde after the split up of the gang - storys about the gang (Blackwater heist etc.) So yeah, that's my vision of all that.

[@passarotriggered9903]

I remember playing this game when I was 7-8 years old, and I remember being stuck on Pig josh, which I affectionately called ''Gordão Dinamite'' for a whole week since the game was in English, a language I didn't know anything about since I'm Brazilian, damn this game has aged badly , but I still feel a huge nostalgia , certainly one of the best games I played when I was a kid.

[@fatboyapollo6605]

pig josh was the worst. Me and my brother had so much trouble beating him. I can still hear pig josh's laugh.

[@Nickallsopp92]

Damn so many memories. My step brother and I played the hell out this when we were younger. The multi-player was especially fun. I don't think it was online, I'm pretty sure it was meant to be local multi-player and with a controller adapters it could support up to 4 player plus bots. Endless hours playing this. Red Harlow needed a cameo of some kind in the Redemption games. Hopefully we'll get one if Rockstar ever releases another red dead redemption game.

[@syllvanis_]

Red does get mentioned in them, at least in RDR2, but I don't know if that really counts to what you mean

[@silasspeaks3301]

He is Uncle.

[@eric11]

​@@silasspeaks3301no he is not

[@crazymarkiplierfan]

It's crazy how faithful they stayed to the style of the game as they went on one thing that would have been cool is a few more enemies that had a unique shape and size to them, everyone for the most part in RD2 are average human size I wish they had a couple big brute enemies like in this game

[@x8jason8x]

Like the giant you have to fistfight in chapter 2? xD There's even a few in RDO.

Good graphics. I was born in 84 so my youth FPS favorites were in the marathon series and quake. Thanks for sharing. Looks fun.

I'd love if they made a remake of this game but similar to RDR2, like 50h long with an open world but with the same story just expanded.

[@HabibiSpice]

If you like this game, you’d probably also like GUN which came out around the same time. Another classic from back in the day.

Thats the one I played its a core memory, I remember being home from school sick and playing it

Red Harlow was uncle all along

Red may be John Marston's self insert character. He writes books and tells stories about Red in the newer games.

[@indiana_holmes]

It's too bad Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 didn't do a better job of integrating Revolver. They could have EASILY included Red Harlow in one of the, "Wild West Stories" Jack read, or have Langton reference him in his interactions with John. Obviously Red Dead Revolver was more of an 'arcade' experience with ridiculously 'cartoonish' characters, but they could have easily just explained away that style. Revolver could easily be explained as just some exaggerated tale of the Wild West, just like the one Arthur fabricated with Callaway and his final duel.

[@indiana_holmes]

@@cantnevercould9660 true, but that is so obscure. That could literally be a story about anyone. Unless you played Red Dead Revolver JUST before playing RDR2, you wouldn't assume he was referring to Revolver. Besides, the villains of Revolver didn't just kill his Dad, they killed his Mom too. If Jack had said something like, "I'm reading a story about this kid with a burnt hand. He grew up to become a brave man. He hunted down the killers who murdered his family." That would DEFINITELY be a reference to Revolver.

[@indiana_holmes]

@@cantnevercould9660 no it wouldn't. It would just be a direct reference to Revolver. Your example isn't necessarily a reference to Revolver (it could be, but there's no definitive way to prove it). Your example could be a reference to literally any story involving a man who lost their father.

[@rubentorre1345]

Boy OH BOY thank you man, I loved this game since I was a kid and I was always pissed when somebody said that hes a fanboy of rdr but they didn't even know about good ol red, and I love this game, I hope some day Rockstar makes a remake of this masterpiece

[@SwizzleStickMcGee]

I remember playing this, and I also remember thinking: "I hate this game. This franchise is never gona go anywhere." And then RDR was awesome....and we all know how RDR2 turned out. Long story short? I was 100% wrong.
