Looks amazing. This should have been released a long time ago. I can't wait to play it

nowitzki20042415d ago

They would lose some sales from PC gamer's that have consoles... Like me

ProjectVulcan2415d ago

PC gamers will only re-buy the game knowing how they can experience it on another level. Rockstar know this, since they did exactly the same thing with GTA5.

Fast forward a few years and GTA5 sold masses on PC, is still extremely popular in the community, chock full of mods and interesting online experiences. RDR2 will end up the same.

SkatterBrain2415d ago

I Hope they Make This 60fps like they should've made GTA5 on the Ps4 Pro and Xbox One X

SkatterBrain2414d ago (Edited 2414d ago )

Seriously Whats with the Effin Disagrees? i never saw any Pro Enhancements to GTA5 on PS4 Pro , You People Are Disagreeing they should use that extra power for something ? Sheep Baaah Baaaaah!!

mikeslemonade2414d ago

nowitzki20042414d ago

WOW it looks amazing! PC for life!!!

bishup252415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

looks very good. more sharper detail on pc for sure.

SkatterBrain2414d ago

Cant Wait for it to Look like this when i pop it into my PS5 , ohh wait you dont want that because you spent $2000+ to make your gaming pc and want to feel it was justified , why are PC Gamers always disagreeing that these graphics could be close to what the next gen is capable of?

nowitzki20042414d ago

Looking at couple of your comments just in this section, maybe you should lay off commenting.

I might get it on PC when I know I can run this game easy. The system specs isnt high at all!

ProjectVulcan2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

It's a game designed for 6 year old consoles. Therefore running it well is not going to be at all difficult, as the minimum specs make clear.

CPU: i5 2500k - came out nearly 9 years ago
GPU: GTX770 - came out 6 and a half years ago

If you have a 4670k and a GTX970 from five years ago it'll cruise this game.

V10Elit3x2415d ago

Have a i7 8700K clocked at 4.88ghz and GTX 1080ti 11GB so I need to try RDR2 out!

FlyingFoxy2415d ago

You generally want at least near, or above recommended specs with games, I'd think my 980Ti from 2015 should run it decently at 1440p though.. Whether I'd get 100+ fps with my high hz screen is another thing, i doubt it. Guessing it would run surprisingly well tho. I've recently upgraded to a Ryzen 3700x so CPU isn't going to be a problem at least.

Rumours of a new Half Life coming soon will definitely push me to a new GPU when Nvidia release their 3000 series too.

Count_Bakula2415d ago

Oh wow really? Was worried with i5 4670 & 1070. Figured since I had to do medium settings on Control to make it smooth, prob would have to do same for RD.

ProjectVulcan2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

Clowns yesterday: God of war is the best looking game ever! Nothing on PC beats it at all! 1080p and 30FPS!

Today: Native 4K RDR2 with way higher than than Xbox One X quality settings at double the framerate

Me: lulz at clowns.

Seriously 60FPS alone will transform this game. It felt so slow and controls so unresponsive on 30FPS consoles. Halving the response time or possibly even better will make everything look and feel so much snappier and smoother.

Movefasta19932415d ago

I still think rdr2 on consoles is technically the best looking game considering it's open world.

iplay1up22415d ago

It is amazing looking on X1X, but it isn't fun!

ProjectVulcan2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

It's a very impressive technical feat that is about to get the level of hardware performance it deserved, much like the GTA5 release on PC. The engine can be unleashed to see it's full potential now. Who doesn't want to see that?

Profchaos2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

I'd agree gow was semi open but it only had to load paths and a hub essentially rdr2 seems to be a more traditional open world and I'm sure the slower pace of the game compared to GTA allows them to load more detail into the immediate as opposed to flying around in a jet like GTA.

Surprisingly when you actually get to fly a balloon the level of detail of the world up high is still extremely detailed.

Hands down it's the most graphically impressive title on this generation easily.

cfc832415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

You: 'today'

Stadia: pinches nose and tries not to laugh

Computersaysno2415d ago

People hate being told the truth

Applejack2415d ago

No, people hate unnecessary trolling when you can make your point without it. I thought that would be obvious but here we are.

Computersaysno2415d ago

It seems like just the truth to me.

This video alone outstrips anything I have seen on any console. It's not a sentence most here would want to read and they would certainly cry about it as much as possible given half the chance.

Doesn't make it any less true and people hate that.

iplay1up22415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

What are you talking about? X1X runs the game in NATIVE 4K, with HDR. The only difference is the framerate on PC, and some tweaks! The pro couldn't do native 4K. No matter, the game is boring. Red Dead 1 (which is Xbox One X enhanced to 4K) and Grand Theft Auto 5 are MUCH more FUN. By the way, yes it is going to look even better on PC, but again it's not fun!

ProjectVulcan2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

PC will double the framerate and increase setting quality across the board. The video clearly showcases settings well beyond the Xbox One X version.

Most importantly doubling the frame rate will be the best thing that ever happened to this game's controls for responsiveness. A mere 1080p 60FPS will make the whole thing far more enjoyable.

spicelicka2415d ago

What the hell is a PC anyway? An Xbox and PS4 are just PC parts assembled for gaming. You have PC's that can run this at 4k/60FPS, and you have PC's that can barely run League of legends. There is no centralized consistent "PC" platform, so your remarks are redundant. All games are made on PCs anyway so again your comments are redundant. You're also paying 2-4 times more than a console for a powerful PC so it would be pathetic if it couldn't run games with better graphics.

The arguments are never "Nothing on PC beats it at all", sounds like fanboy PC master race drivel to conjure up a redundant argument like yours.

The argument is usually about optimization and whether a game is even on PC. God of war was one of the best looking games when it came out considering it's performance and optimization and the fact that you could run it on a $250 device. You could always run any game better on a $1000 PC...but you're paying $1000 and it's likely that devs haven't ported the game well so it's full of bugs, or the game doesn't even exist on PC, like RDR2 didn't until now.

ProjectVulcan2415d ago (Edited 2415d ago )

Your entire post is absolutely ridiculous. This wasn't some philosophical question about 'what is a PC?' That makes no sense. Irrelevant!

The point was the ridiculous discussion about PC in the PS5 topic the other day, where it was claimed by many people a 1080p 30FPS console game was better looking than anything ever seen on PC. Literally no PC game on the platform ever looked better. This was a real claim, made by actual users on this site!

Oh I beg to differ, very much so. Just watch this video to end that preposterous type of console fanboy claim entirely.

ABizzel12415d ago

@spice

What you say is true, but as ProjectVulcan said, the amount of ignorance in that discussion was sickening.

There were PlayStation gamers literally saying God of War looked better than any game on console or PC...PERIOD.

And that's simply not true, as I gave several examples of games that look close to GoW, as good as GoW, or flat-out better due to higher-end PC hardware, and they were still arguing against it even knowing a PC can deliver over 8x the performance of a base PS4.

Here's the foolery if you want to see for yourself (starts @shaggy2303 comment)

spicelicka2415d ago

@ABizzel1

I don't disagree with that, fanboys often say stupid ignorant things, and Sony fanboys are one of the worst here. Without knowing anything about that discussion ProjectVulcan's comment also sounded like fanboy BS though.

mkis0072415d ago

3000 people developed the game vs 300 people, what do you expect.

GTA5 Has Sold Over 220 Million Copies, Red Dead Redemption 2 Has Sold Over 79 Million Units

You think Rockstar views Red Dead 2 as a failure because it didn't sell 150m copies?

jznrpg201d ago

3 billion or so in revenue not including online stuff I’m sure they don’t

SethNW201d ago

I am pretty sure they don't. It was profitable and made them a lot of money. Not GTA5 money but far from failure. Maybe it is lower priority franchise, due to being smaller, but that is about the lowest they would put it as. Only thing they do consider failure is RDR2 Online, unlike GTA5 Online, that RDR2 Online flopped. Hence why it got less support. And when it come to profits, sales for both combined don't come close to GTA Online microtansactions. Hence why everything very quickly got canceled and GTA Online was top priority, so no GTA6 for a long time, no DLC for GTA5, despite there being 5 DLCs planned, at least I think it was 5, give or take one. But as I see it, they needed to rejuvenate interest and all, hence why GTA6 eventually is getting made. But what they are really looking forward to is refresh of Online.

ZeekQuattro201d ago

Only in terms of the online aspect of the game. They didn't support it as much as they did GTA V Online. I remember people being pissed about that.

jznrpg201d ago

I own a few GTAs but never played them. I love Red Dead though

Yui_Suzumiya195d ago (Edited 195d ago )

Boring and overrated. Red Dead Redemption is pretty good though. The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy is my personal GOAT. We need more stuff like that from TooKyo.

victorMaje201d ago

I must be one of the few who are fine with the GTA6 delay. People treat that game like it’s the 2nd coming lol.

FIELDMARSHALL_P201d ago

My daughter asked me how I felt about I shrugged and said I don't care gives me time to finish up games I already have. It's all good let them make the best game they can.

RedDevils201d ago

Wish they make another Manhunt or Bully.

gold_drake201d ago

damn, thats a ridiculous number

Dan Houser: RDR2 was "behind schedule" and "over budget so much I didn’t want to think about it"

Dan Houser opens up about Red Dead Redemption 2’s rocky development, calling it behind schedule, massively over budget, and full of pressure to prove doubters wrong.

The world they built is pretty amazing. Unfortunately, the game was mostly boring to me. I definitely had fun in some parts, but it didn't do it for me as a whole like the first one did. I loved RDR so much.

The budgets and time it takes to make games these days is out of control. Such a big risk. If a game isn't a huge hit, it is often it for a studio. Scary. I really miss the PS2 and PS3 days where studeios could make 4 games in a generation and take risks in making something new. And so many were using their own engines. Those were the days.

neutralgamer1992205d ago

Agreed. I love RDR but couldn't get into RDR2. The animations take forever and game slows you down on purpose. It won't let you have fun because R* want us to play the game they want to. I know millions love RDR2 and I even bought and own it. But just wasn't for me.

It's like comparing GTA4 to saints row 2. One game was about fun while the other was about realism and that's coming from someone who beat GTA4 many times. I much rather a game be fun to play than chase realism

YodaCracker205d ago

GTA IV’s realism is what made it so much more fun for me. I loved experimenting with the physics.

Storm23204d ago

I bought RDR2 also. Put 100+ hours into it and beat it our of respect for Rockstar and all the people saying it was the greatest game ever. RDR blew my mind but might also have been the best time in gaming for me personally. l loved that PS3 gen so much.

I am excited to see what GTA6 is like.
