I'll throw it out there.. I DO NOT really enjoy the GTA series. Sure, they are fun to hop around in and wreak havoc on the cities, but really.. just not my bag. I want a little bit more action and adventure and a little less turning a mirror on society. Just not my thing..So, I was REALLY skeptical about liking Red Dead Redemption. Sand-box style questing just wasn't for me I thought..I could not have been more wrong! The gameplay is excellent, with some intense fire-fights, cool "dead-eye" feature and fluid controls once you get the hang of them. I was expecting GTA on a horse, and while there are noticeable similarities, they really went out of their way to make this feel different and like it's own world.Game is beautiful, even though I'm playing it in now 4 years after release, I'm still impressed by the level of detail considering it's age. This goes into cut-scenes which are really well done, have great voice acting and draw you into the story. The expansiveness of the environment, dangers in the wilderness, side quest, etc. are all very very cool and even mostly through the game like I am now, I didn't ever find anything to be TOO repetitive.Even the mini-games are pretty cool...I've spent a couple of hours just sitting there playing texas hold'em or Five Finger Filet and even the dice game. Sounds odd to play on the console, but it helps you in game if you're good enough and even has some little things you can do in the game that will make it feel more like a.

Red Dead Redemption is one of the finest games I have played to date. It grabs you and doesn't let go, I found myself playing for hours and hours on end, despite having a full time job and a life outside of video games.The Good: Red Dead Redemption has so many good points, it is hard to list them all, so I will only give a few examples. First is the initial setting and your first time in the world of the Western Border States. Stepping foot into such a richly rendered world is breathtaking! The townsfolk are realistic, walking and talking with each other, having conversations and the like. Beautiful sunsets, weather effects and scenery, as well as wild animals, random encounters and wide open plains, all add to the new world you have been transported to. The gameplay is great, with plenty of action and adventure to keep anyone interested for a long time. There's just so much to do, you feel lost. But in the best way.The Bad: Only a few things, so this will be brief. The game had a few glitches, but that is only natural for a game this size. The Undead Nightmare DLC was too easy, but still an insane amount of fun, trust me.The Ugly (You knew it was coming. lol): Nothing in this game is ugly! From the wildlife to the struggling western towns, to the storyline and the variety of weapons, it is a brand new world ready for exploration. On a side note, without spoiling anything, the ending in Redemption is a huge surprise, and one I did not personally enjoy. Though it is poetic in.
