why isn't this channel more popular?
I dont know this guy makes quality reviews
it will be eventually!
I feel the same way about PastimeGaming. Extremely underrated channel.
BrokenGod Ent. did you just try to plug your other channel
cuz pop culture don't care about awesome reviews lol
For a game that's 9 years old, it's aged pretty damn well
The game fuckin sucks
one of the greatest of all time
2:04 You actually got me to say "WHAT?" out loud lol!
alucard2d haha I was puzzled too
Same here haha
Me too 😂
Glad I'm not alone...
I also loved RDR, but before then for me the best western was GUN. Thought that game was awesome but most people have forgot that one.
Really good game! I liked hunting the white buffalo and liked how they actually had Indians in there game!.
Benny26 what you wrote is good enough for me to check it out
Yeah gun is a classic . Unfortunately it flew under the radar for most people.
Benny26 x c
Benny26 fantastic game that was, a good childhood memory
People back then weren't as trained in swimming as we are today.
🙃
but.. has anyone seen.. Gavin?
GAVINNNN!!!!!...... where are you??
🖕
Sgt.Beets no u
General Kenobi
Fuck Gavin and fuck him I shot that guy when I went to the next town and he was waiting for me needless to say I got the bad ending
Red Dead Redemption > GTA V
@ Amien Ander - Agreed, but _GTA V_ is not a bad game to be fair.
@ none of your business - That, or he's just one of those people who hates on _GTA V_ on a regular basis.
GTA SA and GTA IV > GTA V
none of your business Why the fuck are you so angry mate? Calling people names without even explaining why you're so mad.
Ok, don't get me wrong, we all have our own opinions. Why do people always think that any rockstar game is better than GTA V?
"It could have looked much better if there was a PC port... the lack of one is pretty odd."
If I remember correctly from interviews with Rockstar at the time, it was said that the code base for the game was a total mess and they were lucky to get it running as well as it did at launch. I'm paraphrasing, but it's been said that the game is an inch away from crashing at any time I believe, not that you'd know it from the way it runs. This made them reticent to go back and touch it again for release on PC, or PS4/XB1 era consoles, or indeed in any form since 2010's initial release.
To me this is a real shame and tells you all you need to know about post-GTA V R* - all they really care about is GTA Online. They could have done something clever like release a port of the original RDR on Switch at the same time as launching RDR2 on the PS4/XB1, or at the very least dropped an updated re-release onto them with better quality assets, higher rendering resolution (PS3 version renders at 640p and scales to 720p) and 1080p60/4K30 for the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, but no. All we've got to go on is basically thanks to Microsoft's excellent commitment to back compat which allows the original X360 version to be upscaled and run at a more solid frame rate. It's a terrible way to treat what I consider to be one of their best ever games, and in many ways I still prefer to RDR2. Really shameful.
That's what l have read as well. We probably won't ever get RDR on PC at this point, it's been 11 years and they probably wouldn't be able to sell at a decent price anyway so it's all forgotten. But it's still strange we didn't get it on PC when GTA 4, LA Noire and Max Payne 3 were all on PC, and used RAGE engine as well. Max Payne 3 was developed using RAGE with Euphoria combined and it still came to PC. Maybe they just couldn't bother porting it to PC and came up with a random excuse.
you can still play it on PC using xenia canary emulator. It's pretty much playable now. I have almost low end PC (by today's standards) with Ryzen 2600 and RX590, 16 gigs of RAM and the game runs at 60 fps with occasional drops to 30-40 in populated areas. So everyone can play it now
@@Gazorpazorfield from what I saw in the internet they used RAGE V2 on GTA4 and all episodes and RAGE V3 on max payne 3, GTA 5 and RDR2.
Now if you are a keen observer you would notice that something is missing from this list. For those who didn’t, let me explain from the info I found in the interwebs. RDR1 was made using let’s say RAGE V2.5, or more accurately a subset of RAGE V2. There were a lot of changes that were undocumented and the target was X360 and basic compatibility for PS3 with not so much optimisation. The PC was unfortunately out of the question, especially given the infamous PC port of GTA 4.
@@Gazorpazorfield you can run it on Xbox 360 emulator now even on a freaking Steam Deck
I just realized how much breath of the wild took from this game.
yeah when I was playing through it, I was thinking how many elements botw took from this game.
what elements? Breath of the wild is WAY diffrent and way better of course
@@Xivinux better in what ?
@@CrissCHG In asking questions to the player. The game has subtle puzzles and ''shows'' the player where to go. You go to explore and because of curiousity. The game never holds your hand and says go there do this do that It gives you hints and lets you figure it out.
For example camping and cooking. In Breath of the Wild if it rains you have to choose a nice spot for your fire. You have to find flint or have a Flame weapon maybe a fire arrow. In red dead its 1 button and you're cooking. Look I love red dead 2 alot and I play it daily, Zelda is more childish but both are great games which have great exploration and fun things to do.
@@Xivinux In game mechanics, yes, but story wise Red Dead Redemption takes the crown here
Fuck I love this game. Super immersive, pure fun. Not to mention beautiful too, even in 2018.
Masterpiece
It fuckin sucks
2010: FINALLY! Consoles have something over PC!
2018: Two things!
2019: back to one lol
@@frowlinian8175 rdr 2 on pc is broken
@@ShadowLady1 not anymore
we got xenia and rpcs3, but an official pc port would be better
Your reviews are top notch, best on youtube!
Amazing review (your reviews are sort of addictive, haha)
Bro i just realized that the "implore" scene from dutch and arthur is a reference to that mission in rdr1
It's actually "InSiSt"
You
ImPlore mE?
@@jizzer9000 jahn... InSiST?
I will never forgive Rockstar for not porting it to PC, it's still their only major game I haven't played through in it's entirety.
rockstars only major game? right...
+Kamaka Music oh wait i just read through properly lol sorry
Game's code was horrible..thats why its not on pc.
wolfboy20 just play it on console...
Marius Møller i was stating why its not on pc...i already have it on console
Yo, I really lime the way your videos are created and presented, that's a like and +1 sub bro!
I... liked the liar's dice...
The horse shoe tossing game was bullshit though lol
Unfortunately I was too young to appreciate the story when this game came out
Best game of the 7th console generation imo. Right up there with the likes of Mass Effect, The Last of Us or Dark Souls.
The last of us is overrated
@@nate1735 Nah it's one of the best games of last gen
@@ethanwilkins662 yes it really its one of my favorite games ever
but its nit the citiziti kane of video games like gaming jornalist sad
The Last of Us is overrated garbage.
RDR 1 and GTA 4 are my favourite Rockstar games of all time.
OMG the memories the music the charictors the locations the guns the animals the missions!
This game, GTA IV, and NHL 13 were the first games I got for the PS3 back in March 2013; lots of great gameplay hours available there.
I really appreciate what you said in the end. Thank you
Just replaying it on my 360 now. It's still as fantastic as I remember when I played it on PS3 in 2011.
great video! your sub count is gonna boom!
I asked get reminded of the western lovers in Duke nail compound kill one here in the music here
The horses in RDR2 are flawless. It's so apparent their dedication. it's unreal.
I get what you're saying, but its not really. In game they can go from trot to gallop in 0.5 seconds without hurting themselves and go for days without eating or tending their shoes. This could put a horse down for good in real life from repetition or neglect. Your female horses never have a menstrual cycle and you never have to deal with your horse trying to mount another with you riding it. They look cool sure, but horses are animals and a true portrayal of horse care would be tedious and boring when your horse spooks and dies underneath your lap after you made that warning shot.
@@oh-not-the-bees7872 brother that's too realistic. That's the problem with the game already. Picking up a can takes 3 mins. You're right but jesus that's overkill. I meant that there movements and physical design ard amazing not so much their diet or capabilities. Sounds like you care a lot about them. :) horses rock.
As much as I love gta, this is my favorite game of all time
Until RDR2
@@tracyrae4854 My least favourite rockstar game of all time and i have played over 10 games from that company
Tracy Rae Ehh
5:07 GTA 4: "am I a joke to you?"
You started with the best intro ever...
Just by the fact you didnt mention GUN i can tell you didnt play it, it is THE western game to play of the PS2 era, and before redemption theres was nothing like it
great review btw
I Mean there was red dead revolver
What a great reviewer
I love so much that Arthur IMPLORING Dutch to let go of John and his family is a direct reference to the beginning of Red Dead 1. The way bill laughs sounds like he’s heard this all before and it’s beautiful
Arthur insisted not implored
John Marston was cooler than Arthur
Great stuff!
As soon as I heard the main menu theme again I got goosebumps
I've noticed from your reviews you have an obsessions with rampaging in any open world game
To this date. I have yet to play any title that surpasses this in terms of sheer quality. The depth in the story, the awesome soundtrack and the unique gameplay mechanics, everything clicked right, for the first time in history for me.
Hats off to Rockstar! I always remember the first time playing it. Once in a lifetime game.
Have you not played Red Dead Redemption 2 yet?
@@JEREMCEE played both. but this remains special. the nostalgia factor maybe?
Finished 100% the other week! First game fully completed
This one is weird for me as well as 2 I love these games but sometimes I find them boring and don't like them for a while but like rn im replaying them and once again I find them so immersive and fun idk it just depends on the time but they are masterpieces in their own ways for sure
Great video
I loved this game. I really hoped it would be remastered
Could you review _Red Dead Revolver_ as well as both _Manhunt_ games when you get the chance please? : D
Great video! One of the best games ever!
I had a lot of fun playing RDR on mg ps3, but my copy was corrupted or something because as soon as i made it to blackwater (i think that was the name of the last city unlocked) i would be stuck at an endless loading screen meeting the marshall
Imagine the mods if this was released on PC... what could have been eh. Hey! At least we get RDR2 on PC. I cant wait!
Great review! Only question I have is why do people play Undead Nightmare before playing the main game?
One thing I wish Rockstar did was explain the Dead Eye ability. How did John and Arthur get it or the origins of it?
Well i don't know about Arthur, but it's stated that John is blind in his left eye, since sometimes when shooting birds out of the sky in the first game he will say "looks like i got my eye back" through those ambient dialogues. Although i guess is just speculation of the fans since it ain't canon.
Whiskey
Hooooo Lott’s whiskey.
I think its just the characters focusing and having good aim.
Dead eye is the representation of how capable are John and Arthur with guns, it's like how fast and accurate their shots could be if they focus enough.
Just a cool gimmick (mechanic). I dont really think there is nothing more to it than that.
Subscribed!
Can you do a RDR2 review please?
I think the slow pace at the beginning is also an hommage to the old Spaghetti Western, especially the Sergio Leone films. They start really slow, but once the action starts, it doesn't stop.
jayive34 never gave that a thought, even though I love Leones films. Makes sense now, thank you, dude
Never thought of it that way ... But now the beginning shouldnt seem as slow. Thanks
I've been playing GTA V and loving it, but I'm gonna get this game soon. Don't care how old it is. I've seen downright glowing reviews of this game, and read all the love about it.
yes it it awesome, did u get it?
Who is watching this in 2018 4 days before the release of Red Dead Redemption 2.
I'm still impressed how everything looks so still beautiful compared to RDR2 on Xbox One S.
I thought it was a fantastic duology. My younger brother bought me both games for Christmas 2019 and 2020 and I loved the scenery and story. Rockstar makes some beautiful games, and I loved the story, and character development and interactions. The gameplay was great, but typical Rockstar, and just a vehicle to facilitate the story progression. I really appreciated the "skip checkpoint" option so I could bypass hard parts.
How do you access that?
It's interesting that I really enjoyed RDR's slow start, but hated the same thing in GTA4. Possibly having dipped a toe in more spectacle-heavy games like Uncharted and Assassin's Creed in the meantime colored my expectations, or maybe it's because that Roman guy is a total douchebag, and Niko comes across as too much of a cypher.
a little late now but i believe having bandana on as you commit crimes does not give you bounty or decrease in honor
I basically played this game as a good guy: collecting bounties, hunting, and helping strangers. No rampages for me, it was out of my system after GTA III & Vice City. I did have a few bounties on John Marston, but real penny ante stuff.
im excited too see your rdr2 review
RDR and Sleeping Dogs are my fav GTA-like games. Still yet to play RDR2.
This and San Andreas are my favourite games ever
I miss this game. My PS3 doesn't want to switch on anymore...
I know this comment is old but you can consider PS Now to play this game. That's what I'm doing in Feb 2020
Oh man that pregnant pause between paralysis and relief. That brief couple of seconds to think "did I just hear that shit"
Bravo sir!
@ColorShed can you make a Red Dead Redemption 2 review I’ve been waiting to see one since the game has been released.
Thanks
sudha bhatt
John Marston says it to Arthur Morgan in the mission “Redemption”
Love Liars Dice.
6:25 “wait, it’s all just killing each other?” “Always has been professor.”
I love liars dice i was upset it wasnt in 2
I never played this till after I beat RDR2 it was an awesome experience
You should do a review of Gun.
11:19 All you had to do...
to me the very best open world 3rd person game ever made... everything is perfect on this game... from graphics (at the time) to the gameplay, story and characters... wildlife... Mexico... it has it all. Thanks Rockstar for this geme. hope to relaunch on the PS4 or PC at any time
My favorite game since San Andreas
how would black and white make it more authentic its not like people used to see in it till they invented color
More authentic to old cowboy films I think he meant, but some of the most famous are in color so idk lol
Are you trying to say people didn't see in color until it was invented? I can't understand through your bad grammar
I think he is just trying to make a casual reference to old films.
I love this game. I play it handheld on my switch
never underestimate the soundtrack to Red Dead Revolver.
I used to go to my local BLOCKBUSTER every week to rent a game during 2006-2011 & most games were mediocre & only a far few got my full attention
I rented RDR a few weeks after it's initial release dokey for the R* logo on the bottom right of the box
I expected to get bored of the game like the majority of the games i rented but from the 3-4 mission the game got my full on attention
Beat the game 3x & it's UNDEAD NIGHTMARE expansion 2x
Why when people talk about Western video games, they never mention the great GUN, i'm still waiting for sequel all these years after
I love the GTA series and I think all the games past 3 are great but I think none of them stand up to Red dead redemption in terms of story, atmosphere, characters, soundtrack etc... RDR is on another level to GTA
Nah, Gta has a better soundtrack
GTA does have a lot more options in its gameplay though, like with vehicles and stuff but obviously because its set much later.
i have never played more than 10% of rdr, i actually have the game for the ps3 right next to me.
i like the idea of a wild west, but horses only? no man i gotta have me a few vehicles.
Still love this game the most
Red Dead Perfection
My favorite game.
"..believe it or not,red dead undead was my 1st RD game" lol I believe it since it was mines too😁. I didn't play it until after I played GTA 5 & I finally played RD last month
What did you think?
Best western game ever was freddy pharkus frontier pharmacist. Change my mind. Jk red dead is crazy good. I got 100% in single player and lev 50 in multiplayer, which you didn't mention a lot about, actually. The multiplayer was so good and the coop missions SO HARD!
ill admit it.... you had me.
lol he got mad and shot the horse shoe guy
that fucking ending tho.
Pls do a Days Gone review!
I can't say this with complete confidence, ,but Red Dead 1 is probably the greatest Rockstar game.
Steamed Hams...but its a RDR Review.
Gta SA, Gta5, Far Cry 3, Max Payne 3 and Red Dead Redemption are the only games I have completed 100%
If the immersion is so much fun, then you want to explore everything the game world has to offer
I can play through the story like three times a year and I still freak out with fierce revenge every single time
hands down the best score in modern gaming history
There’s not a pc port because the developers said it was a miracle this game runs ok console
Superb. Hilarious.
This game needs a remake now, the map is kinda done in rdr2
You know techinically Rockstar San Diego is in Carlsbad not San Diego. But it is in San Diego county so...
imagine Rockstar Carlsbad bruh
Red Dead 2 was good as well but I wish better graphics could be used and then both will be excellent.
eh the graphics are fine. Graphics are a true non-issue with most AAA games.
