Red Dead Redemption II

Rdr2 is an experience, as it's more than just a video game. It's like being in one long Oscar winning movie. Script, acting, storyline are immense, it's quite unbelievable really. You are living as a cowboy day in day out eating, bathing, sleeping, everything in a huge openworld. Action aside this is a great story, it's a prequel to RdR1. It has a massive amount of missions and side missions. I played the game for literally several weeks doing missions or just doing what I wanted it was an incredible experience and that is what this is, an experience. A word of warning it does start of very slow, the initial missions you don't feel free at all but when that snow goes the game really begins and you won't look back. One piece of advice whilst you are playing the early chapters, appreciate it. This story does eventually end and you maybe very sorry and even very sad when it does.

This game is nearly perfect in every way. Graphics are gorgeous, from ever muscle in the horses as they move, to every blade of grass. The attention to detail is absolutely crazy. Walking in town you may see 2 dogs playing. Fishing? You might look across the river and see a grizzly grabbing his dinner. Its the tiny details like this that add zero to the game, but helps immerse you in the world of Arthur. The story is fantastic. It has touching moments, humor, suspense. If you had someone watching as you play the game, I can almost guarantee they'll want to know what happens next. The characters are multi-dimensional. Almost no one is completely evil or completely good. They are each layered and the most honest adaptation of people Ive ever seen in a game. The acting is absolutely the best of any game, hands down. Thats one thing that will ruin a great game for me, if the voice acting is lazy and uninspired. The actors in this game are the best, from Arthur to a minor character you might meet once, to a background character in the saloon. The gameplay? Wow. Smooth as can be. Sure there are some glitches here and there but for a game this size there are shockingly few. I can see why we had to wait nearly 10 years for this. Its a masterpiece. Rockstar earned every penny of the $100 I paid for this. I keep hoping for DLC, another chapter, anything for storymode. Even another Nightmare game would be welcomed.

Hands down, the best game ever released. No questions asked, this game has it all. Graphics, engaging side missions, a great story, adventure when you free roam, surprises, scares, intriguing discoveries and the ability to choose your in-game path. Arthur can be a good guy, or a bad guy, which will dictate how people treat you. You travel by trusty steed everywhere, it's the 1890's! I can go on. I'd be here all night with all of the fantastic things to see, brilliant places to go, and interesting people to see. If you're a casual gamer, a 24hr take the week off work gamer, or even just a here and there on the weekend gamer, you MUST download this game. 10/10!!

Its a masterpiece from beginning to end. The Story of legendary outlaw Arthur Morgan is one of the finest ever told. Its amazing

Rockstar Games has 100% out done themselves this time. The controls are phenomenal, the story is reminiscent of GTA V's story, "one last job and we can be done forever". This game is worthy of GOTY and hopefully it wins that. For those saying that the "controls are too clunky", "you have to fight like the devs planned", stop playing because it's not like that at all. The controls again are perf- BEYOND perfect. 10/10 would play the story again. Arthur Morgan is now my new top #1 favorite game character.
