NextGN Review: Red Dead Redemption

So Rockstar’s latest has hit the shelves. It’s familiar territory – a third-person shooter with tons of side-quests and mini-games, as well as an abundance of violence thrown in for good merit. So is it anything more than a Grand Theft Auto game with horses, as many people have suggested?

whitesoxfalife5873d ago

but there are a few things they could have done tho to make it very different from other western shooters, like when ya horse gets real tired stop by a puddle of water or something that alone is a game changer

granat5873d ago

the different from other western shooters,red dead redemtion is much more fun to play.but you can give your horse apple and you can buy some horse drug that makes it run abit faster when tierd.its alot different and better then other western games anyway.

granat5873d ago

and if u did would know about the multiplayer part,then u would know they made it very different from other games.so if u asked them,whats different from this game then another western game ? eh,the horse can drink water,and cause of that the game is very different from other games.... http://www.youtube.com/watc... thats the org red dead redemtion,then rockstar took the job to make the next game.kinda like red dead redemtion 2

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?!’

Alek83178d 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.

Lionsguard179d ago

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

TheColbertinator179d 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_drake179d 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

Petebloodyonion212d 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.

Hypertension140212d ago (Edited 212d ago )

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