The Perfect Game!

No game ever has ever been able to pull you into a world like Red Dead Redemption does. Many companies have tried to make Western games, a few have been good but none have been able to make you feel like an outlaw or a cowboy. Rockstar in my opinion is the best gaming company because of their other perfect games such as Grand Theft Auto, L.A. Noire and Max Payne. With such a stellar record, making the greatest Western game ever seemed destined. Everything about this game is amazing. The single player is one of the best stories a game has ever told, telling how an outlaw named John Marston who left his old gang to become a better man and be the father he never could be to his son Jack and wife Abigail, but this is all ruined when Bureau agents kidnap his family and force him to kill the 3 other members of the Dutch gang, his former family. The way this game pulls you into the Wild West is unprecedented, travelling from one side of the map to the other could take quite a long time being that you go from the modern town of Blackwater, to the gang haven of Thieves' Landing to the classic Western town of Armadillo to the civil war torn Mexico with dozens of towns in between. I could go on and on about the perfect Singleplayer but it would be a sin if I didn't boast about the Multiplayer as well. Most games with such an expansive Singleplayer just throw a few Multiplayer modes in to keep the peace. Rockstar being Rockstar does nothing of the sort. They made the lobby the entire map of the single player, free to kill and take down gang hideouts, not to mention the modes such as a Mexican showdown, The Good the Bad and the Ugly style and so many other to name. All in all this is the greatest game I've played to date and I recommend this to anyone who loves Westerns and anyone who loves amazing games in general! I give this game a 10/10.

Best Rockstar Game Made.... So far

Best game I've probably ever played. Good story line and fun game play. I've literally played the campaign 6 times and I'm waiting to play again as soon as it comes in the mail. Check it out.

The thing I loved about RDR was,well,everything.First off the game has beautiful scenery and graphics plus the voice acting was amazing;you can really get into the character's lives.The only thing I wouldn't like is that there are many glitches that aren't to hard to find out about.Second the multiplayer.The multiplayer was not just something like CoD multiplayer to were you just level up by killing,there is so much to do,(personally) I find it hard to find anything boring to do.Because you can either grab a couple of friends and go hunting, sky diving, and of course killing one another and/or just dominating every other player.But since I haven't talked much about the singleplayer experience,this review isn't over.The singleplayer really makes you feel like an actual cowboy back in the Wild West,you can feel the emotion that John feels throughout the story,oh yeah that's right the actual story.Well the story isn't something really short like Mafia II there are many missions to complete but also,a down side, there is way to much horse riding and this isn't horrible but does get kinda exhausting to go through it all.Also you know how I said it was long,well I'm not quite sure but it's like 21 hours of gameplay,I know what your thinking,thats quite a bit.Anyways other than the flaws the dlc's were also great,so basically it's probably the best 3rd person sandbox I have ever played.

Red Dead Redemption - XBOX36o

I love the Red Dead Redemption. I have beaten about 5 times now. It is a awesome game. But there are some things wrong with the game that I don't like. I picking flowers - why! And the wild animals. They don't just come after you for no reason. And you get killed are you house. Because of them. And John did everything he was told to do. And he gets with his wife and son. And they do things together. But after John did everything. They come and kill him. WHY!!!!!. But other then that the game is awesome.

This game was very interesting i love the open world game-play and how the weather changes during the campaign but overall this game is a 10 out of 10. But one the downfall of the game is your character dies which changes your whole view of the game.

One of Rockstars GREATEST games yet!!!

When I decided to rent Red Dead Redemption I did so knowing that it was supposed to be good based on the reactions of others and my history with Red Dead Revolver. But when I popped the game in, I had no idea how much of an understatement that was! From the very beginning of the game you are immersed in the days of the old Wild West. You travel on horseback, you keep a six shooter at your side, you play cards and collect bounties. Everything about this game is just so amazing! Anything that you've seen someone do in a western movie, you can do yourself. Whether its hunting an animal, stopping a criminal, or jumping off of your horse and onto a movie train. This game does it all and in every great way possible! Not only that, but the animation, facial expressions, and voice acting are top notch. The one down side is that there are occasional glitches here and there, but what do you expect? This game's map is HUGE! So all in all, Red Dead Redemption isn't worth a rent, it is a MUST BUY!!!

One of my favorite games since xbox 360 came out. If you haven't played it by now then you should. Its grand theft auto in the old west. You are free to do whatever the you want and you can complete stuff too. There are so many things to do in this game and there all fun. You can go hunting for animals, be a bounty hunter and once you get a lasso you can go out and tame yourself a horse or you can sell them at will. not to mention the mini games are fun liars dice and poker are just 2 of them.

When I first received this game, I was kind of skeptical about it. But after 3 days, I was already into it and had beaten the entire single player campaign. So, Red Dead Redemption, I give you a 10.

This game was so good i just loved it. It was very good. The game had alot of good stuff in it. This game was so good that i went through 4 pairs of pants while playing it. This game was simply.... good. For everytime that i say good i mean that it is good. if you like things that are good then that is good. Your goodness should make you want to buy this good game. Now just to show you how good this game was to me i must scream random words. TURTLE CARCUS! Okay that was a very good thing to say. Oh and by the way the cake is a LIE!!! TURTLE TESTICLES!

Everything this game set out to do, it did. Every promise it made, it delivered. I've owned this game since the first day it came out, and because of the unreal replay value, I still play it nearly every time my 360 is on. The multiplayer is the best I've ever seen, the graphics are breathtaking and the control is easy to learn and hard to master. If a regular third person shooter is an empty chamber of a revolver, Rockstar brought all six bullets.

One of the best games I've ever played

I can't say enough good things about thing game. First I'll start with the single player. It took me roughly 60 hours to beat the game while collect everything, do all the side missions etc. And I loved every minute of it! The story is one of the best told stories in a video game.

I am not sure how active the online is these days. But if you can find a group of friends to play with, the online roaming and mini games will keep you busy for hours on end. A group of us once spent 3 hours chasing bears and mountain lions with knifes. I never laughed so hard in my life. Not to mention there is plenty of DLC and co op.

The graphics aren't the best I've ever seen. But for a open world game they are top notch! And the sound effects is just as good.

I'm not great at writing reviews. But I did have to say something about this game. Hopefully I helped you out a bit. Don't rent this game, buy it! Seriously I put in a total of probably 200 hours. And this is coming from someone who can't play a game more then 10 hours before getting bored.

Red Dead Redemption is one of the greatest games I have played. This game harnesses so many features, secrets, challenges, and activities it is hard to comprehend. One of the overlooked features of modern gaming on any scale is the story. The majority of mainstream games are based on multiplayer ranking and unlocks. Red Dead Redemption has a deep, emotional, and surprising story mode that, though not obligatory, enriches the experience greatly. The world you play in is beautiful - the animals have fluid motion, the plants are well textured, the trees are smooth, and the people have believable reactions to Marston's actions. From horseback riding and hunting to raiding a rebel hideout to stealing stagecoaches, RDR immerses the player in the Old West era like no other cowboy game ever has.
