Do you think RDR has knocked GTA out of the number one rockstar game, spot? Or do you think GTA is still standing strong?
Red Dead Redemption hits 3.3 million Netflix downloads on mobile, underscoring how subscription access drives reach over paid sales.
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.
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.
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.
Rockstar says the free upgrade issue affecting Red Dead Redemption Xbox 360 owners requires more time to resolve, with another update expected within five days.
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.
Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
A detailed comparison of Red Dead Redemption on Switch 2, PS4, and PS5 shows stronger settings, better performance, and a major uplift for Nintendo’s new hardware.
For me I definately think RDR is better. It's a breath of fresh air to have a game set in the wild west in todays market which is overly saturated with modern shooters, futuristic shooters and other open world games set in modern day.
The biggest thing for me though is that this feels like a current gen "Gun" which was easily one of my favourite games last gen :)
For me. I love the GTA series, but RDR has pushed that style even further. The attention to detail is outta the park and I see something new every time I play. I'm loving the evolution of sandbox games.
The reason I like RDR over GTA is because unlike GTA, I care about the story along with the massive bloodbath that follows. I almost feel the only reason Rock Star still makes GTA games is because everyone will buy that and then they can slab the "From the makers of GTA!!!!" tab on their better quality games to show that they can make a story fans should somewhat care about.
