Red Dead Redemption is a Western epic, set at the turn of the 20th century when the lawless and chaotic badlands began to give way to the expanding reach of government and the spread of the Industrial Age. A follow up to the 2004 hit Red Dead Revolver, this game tells the story of former outlaw John Marston, taking players on a great adventure across the American frontier. Red Dead Redemption features an open-world environment for players to explore, including frontier towns, rolling prairies teaming with wildlife, and perilous mountain passes – each packed with an endless flow of varied distractions. Along the way, players will experience the heat of gunfights and battles, meet a host of unique characters, struggle against the harshness of one of the world’s last remaining wildernesses, and ultimately pick their own precarious path through an epic story about the death of the Wild West and the gunslingers that inhabited it.
America, 1911. The Wild West is dying.
When federal agents threaten his family, former outlaw John Marston is forced to pick up his guns again and hunt down the gang of criminals he once called friends. Experience an epic fight of the American West and Mexico, as John Marston struggles to bury his blood-stained past, one man at a time.
Outlaws to the end.

+ Great story, so compelling that you can't avoid to end it, and absorb all sidequests as fast as possible.
+ Various activities that are interesting to do: gaining the new outfits, searching for treasure, capturing outlaws, etc.
+ The most interesting random encounters I've ever seen in a game.
+ Even if the solitary open-world experience can be boring, you can replay the missions, with some friends, do time trials, etc.
- It's really solitary once you end it, and made it through 100%. But that's not exactly a bad thing, you move on, next game.
A game with a perfect casting, perfect music, perfect scenario. The only negative point it’s at the end when you’ve done all the little activities you could possibly do. And, that’s exactly what made the story so compelling. It is interesting and rewarding, with a huge impact on the player after every mission.
The gameplay is good, during the story, when the open-world is interesting, meaningful, and the players run into lots of random encounters. The scenario is interesting, with nice little details that can be explored during the treasure hunt missions.
In the end, it’s a game that you play, understand the purpose of the game, and love it, looking to share with every friend you have.
Although it can look pretty at times, and the sound, music and voice acting were good. The gameplay was boring. Both side quests and story beats felt like a chore with only a few being worth doing. Luckily the game picked up slightly by the end. I can’t recommend the game unless you are really interested
