IGN: Red Dead Redemption: The Hero

IGN writes: "After six hours of Red Dead Redemption, I don't see how anyone could play this game as an outlaw. The title toys with your emotions – anger, love, sympathy, guilt – and casts you into a world that's crying out for a hero. There were plenty of situations I encountered where a bullet to the head would've made my mission easier, but these weren't just faceless folks in a videogame world – I needed to help them. I can pinpoint the moment when the depravity of the henchmen I was up against made me sick to my stomach and I knew that being good was the only way for me to play this game".

Really good article, I recommend everyone to read it.

ThanatosDMC5856d ago

F***! Why did i read that?! Stupid curiosity! I'm so hyped up for this game i forgot that i dont want anything spoiled for me.

For those who dont want anything spoiled before playing the game and want to be surprised about what they will find in the game, DO NOT READ IT! You can click though for hits.

ARGH!!!

Final_Rpg5856d ago

Thankyou Thanatos, not going to read it now.

himdeel5856d ago

...read the article but I thought it was a good read too. After reading both the good and bad I think they should do a 3rd piece on straddling the line. I'll only have to comment on RDR for 8 more days then I can post comment about what I like and dislike about the game :)

pody5856d ago

Yeah! I was waiting for this one! I'm always mr. goodie two-shoes.

psman0125856d ago

I have to preorder NOW! :D

Redlogic5856d ago

and use Amazon so you can get a $20 gift card

psman0125849d ago

Funny you mention that...

TheBand1t5856d ago

I can't bring myself to be a bad guy in most games.

BYE5856d ago

I will try to be good in this game except for occasional masked train robberys.

More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.

How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

What if Netflix becomes ‘the Netflix of gaming?!’

Alek83128d ago

I downloaded it because I already have a Netflix sub.
I am not going to buy it for $40 or whatever it costs on Google Play.

I tried it out and will be sticking to the PC version, but it's not bad.

Having said that, this is the issues I see vs the PC version:
1. Greatly reduced texture resolution.
2. Massive downgrade ALL lighting quality (this includes water, shadows, etc).
3. Stutter and heat. Prolonged play leads to both.
On the plus side, we have:
4. This thing is like 6GB vs the 12 on Steam.

Great way to try the game, but not the best way to play it.

Perhaps Netflix will make a RDR series now that ST is done with.

Lionsguard129d ago

A Netflix version of RDR?... Oh boy... I can't wait... /s

TheColbertinator129d ago

They should build a production that includes members behind the True Grit remake and Hell on Wheels from AMC. Both were perfect for wild west vibes.

gold_drake128d ago

but i doubt people ACTUALLY played it on smartphone vs tried it out.

Another free update...good to know but I don't own a series X

Petebloodyonion162d ago

I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

Hypertension140161d ago (Edited 161d ago )

Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
