Red Dead Redemption for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

When I first heard of Red Dead Redemption, I wanted nothing to do with it. Then I noticed all of the hype, including game-of-the-year from multiple sources. So I figured, what the heck? Here's what I found out:

Story:10 A promise of redemption drives the main character to the end of the game.
Graphics:10 Beautiful scenery that I just had to stop and atare at for a while.
Sound:10 Great voice work, and an awesome soundtrack.
Gameplay:10 A bit like PS2's GUN, only for this generation.
Multiplayer:10 Crazy, unbalanced, but fun as anything!

This was a very good game. For a novice video game player, its very easy to get through without pulling your hair out. There is an "auto-aim" feature that helps people who stink at that part of video games. Its still semi-challenging, and its a lot of fun. The plot is pretty straightforward but still keeps you busy, and you feel like your actually accomplishing something when you do the missions. And if your one of those that can't focus on one thing for two seconds, you can always randomly go around killing animals or other people. The most annoying part of this game to me was the horse. It worked fine a lot of times, but theres plenty of times when the horse just ticks you off, and doesn't go where you want it to go. There are a few graphics glitches I noticed but it didn't seem too invasive or irritating to me. For the most part I thought the graphics and playability were fantastic, and I, as a poor quality gamer, was able to beat the game, but it still took me several days. The only reason I give it a 9 is because of the horse, and because of one thing I didn't like at the end of the game.
