yet another gem by R* that makes me glad to be a gamer. The game was an absolute work of art from beginning to end. Can't wait to see what they do with the franchise next.

FACTUAL evidence5645d ago (Edited 5645d ago )

I'm not hating but really? The game is OK. Not GOTY ok. It seems anything done by R* will get GOTY. The game was decent like GTA4. ME2, or GOW3 should of had it.

Zachmo1825646d ago (Edited 5646d ago )

Awesome. They deserve it!

Also Rockstar is like the only ones that actually put out quality dlc like the red dead dlc and gta...You actually gets hours out of it...Not 30 mins and never return to it again.

Ahasverus5646d ago (Edited 5646d ago )

Kudos Rockstar for not believing that ASSHOLE of Pachter and actually trying to do something different, thanks for giving us hours and hours of inmersive game world, thanks for the quality DLC actually worth the money, thanks for the compelling story and foir the ending that made us cry, and thank you, many thank you, for making gaming more than a child's play... a human play.

Thank you Rockstar!

Speed-Racer5646d ago

Damn good news. Very good game that deserved the title.

Dellis5645d ago

nah this isn't game of the year, this game is only good after mexico, before that and the end are horrible

writersblock5645d ago

Man
I thought I was the only one who thought so

RedDead5645d ago

I agree, there's alot more people who didn't like that much than us aswell, in short, it's too reptitive.

go here listening to this guy while shooting these guys.
When you get there, shoot these guys.
Repeat the first step while going here.

That's the missions in a nutshell, the problem with it is riding a horse isn't fun after a while, driving a car in GTA is far better, avoiding traffic is more fun etc.

r1sh125645d ago

@reddeaddestroyer..
I sort of agree with you, it was sort of like the first assassins creed.
Where you literally do the same thing in a different location. But what assassins did next was improve on that.
Im sure rockstar will do the same, Rockstar are my favourite game dev, If you look at the majority of their games, they tend to have a high standard. I liked Red Dead, but I think they changed the RAGE (GTA engine) a bit too much, the ending was not made for a game, its more of a movie ending.

But all in all, its a good game, and I guess it deserved GOTY. It created its own genre and for that it should win

acky15645d ago

Yeh, horse riding got really repetitive and boring after a while. By the end I was so sick of it.

Great characters as to be expected with rockstar and I can see why it got GOTY but definitely not my personal game of the year.

Didn't enjoy the setting or the missions and won't go back to play it again...something that GOTY should want you to do.

AntoineDcoolette5645d ago

Yeah I pretty much fucking hated Mexico as well

fooltheman5645d ago

I have the repetive feelings with Gta IV
This was refreshing in its atmosphere and setting, so it didn't cause the repetitive feeling here...

(I didn't go with the hype either bought it way after release..)

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?!’

Alek83133d 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.

darthv72135d ago

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

Lionsguard134d ago

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

TheColbertinator134d 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_drake134d 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

Petebloodyonion167d 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.

Hypertension140167d ago (Edited 167d ago )

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