Dusan Pavlovic at E4G writes "Somewhere in the library of heavily underused settings in video games are Wild West and Steampunk one next to the other. Sure, we had games like Call of Juarez, Damnation and even Red Steel 2 but RDR completely devotes it's time and style to present you one top notch adventure set in the Western setting."
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.
Still debating on which console to get it on, any help?
I got it for the 360 and it looks fantastic. I really am in love with this game right now. It's so good.
same here...
love the game, my only problem with it is I feel the controls for the horse riding could have been better.
As for which to get, I own both but got the 360 version because I have more friends on the 360.
It simply comes down to you finding your own best insentive. If you have equal number of friends on both, get the one with the extra content. if you prefer the 360 controller, get it for the 360. if you prefer the ps3 controller get it for the ps3.
don't let all this rubbish about the screen res put you off - but if you really are that picky, well rent both games for a night play them side by side and then make your choice.
keep in mind there have been plenty of big titles on both systems that have not really been full HD res.. none notices anything when playing the actual games. It's only when some nurd with a magnifying glass has the time to start counting pixels, then the rest of the fanboy forces on both sides start playing up.
in my book this game deserves all the praise and positive attention it got, it was a shame it was spoilt by the it's better on this system then this system crap ( even when the differences are not worth time spent arguing about them )
anyway, back to hogtying those bandit women and leaving them on the train track !
