Pros:
A great spec ops mode with a variety of missions if you downloaded all the dlc; as well as a fun survival mode. The spec ops side of MW3, depending on your tastes, will keep you sucked to it.
Simple controls, as every CoD game has.
A story that was decent, and ended the MW series in an okay way.
Some fun modes in MW3 multiplayer.
Cons:
The fact that this game seems to cater to newer players with death streaks such as final stand and deadman's hand. You might feel frustrated feeling like you got cheated out of a kill because a player using either of these unearned streaks killed you.
Inconsistent hit detection. Sometimes it may take one or a few bullets to kill a foe in multiplayer; other times it may take half of your gun's magazine to kill them. It was bad for gameplay, and easy to feel like I got screwed out of a kill.
Certain guns weren't nerfed properly. I believe when the game came out, guns such as the spas 12 were powerful, when it came to range and power; but after a while, the range and damage were weakened not only on this shotgun, but on several other shot guns.
Too many camping spots. I feel there were too many spots for players to camp at that made the game hard to play; and if they had a ghillie suit, they could probably blend with the environment(s).
I wasn't a fan of the campaign. I really loved the campaigns for the previous MW games, and feel MW3 didn't live up to those previous two. I feel had the original employees for IW stayed, the campaign for MW3 would've been much different, and I could've enjoyed it more.
Short Summary:
For me, MW3 was strong in areas such as having a good spec ops mode and simple gameplay, but modes such as single and multiplayer were the weaker links. With multiplayer being the worst; since it had tons of issues when it came to abuse of game changing and unearned deathstreaks, a system which helped noobs too much, bad hit detection, environments which were made for camping and unbalanced guns. As for the campaign, it just doesn't live up to what the other two campaigns were.

Pros:
Variety in methods of infiltration and assassination.
Nice controls and good gameplay.
Great story.
Fairly good graphics. Might seem cartoony, but they're fine.
Good missions.
Fun tools and weapons to work with.
Gruesome kills and gore.
The ways you can neutralize targets.
The fact you can choose to be non lethal or lethal.
Stealth.
Cons:
Not enough non lethal tactics or weapons.
I don't like Corvo's in game design. He's too skinny. He looks better on the cover.
The fact that I generally don't get all of my powers upgraded by the end of a session; and I don't have enough runes or bone charms. Which is why I wish there was a new game plus or something for Dishonored 1.
You can't take down Tallboys non lethally. You have to evade them if you're playing a session non lethally.
Save slots. I'm more a fan of checkpoints.
Short Summary:
This is a wonderful game that has a lot of variety, tools, methods of assassination and infiltration and take downs. There's just so much to the game. Even though I have personal dislikes such as the save slots, limited non lethal tactics and weapons, difficulty to get your magic set fully finished and upgraded and inability to take down Tallboys non lethally. In all, this is a great Victorian era like distopian setting with a lot of variety, a great atmosphere and awesome ways of dealing with your enemies.

Pros:
Unique protagonist.
Intriguing story.
Amazing gameplay.
Great open world.
Awesome quests, tasks and unlockables.
Western setting and themes.
Realistic and has fun DLCs
Stunning soundtracks, and everything else about this game is great.
Cons:
This game is over six years old, so I assume that's why the servers have problems. During the winter, it's hard to find a well functioning session that doesn't have bugs and glitches. It can even be hard to get into a session.
Save files can be corrupted if you're not careful with what you do. I deleted the Undead Nightmare dlc to download something else, and when I came back to RDR, my multiplayer file was corrupted. Meaning my level dropped back to level one and all of my earnings were gone. That was the second time I lost my rank. The first time I think it was due to me dashboarding during a game. Me losing my rank, the second time I believe it was due to me deleting my dlc pack. It's frustrating to know that all you worked for is deleted, and you have to work up to that level again. You might be extremely frustrated if this happens to you a few times.
Overpowered buffalo rifle. In friendly free roam, a guy kept shooting my character with the buffalo rifle. I couldn't move my character, they were stuck in place until they blew up into pieces, IN FRIENDLY FREE ROAM where no one can kill any one else; or so I thought.
Lag in Outlaws to the End Co Op. I think there were lag spikes when I played with others, and sometimes they would be invisible during the winter time. This happens in multiplayer during winter. The other players would be invisible, and sometimes my character would randomly die.
Short Summary:
Being at the age it is now, Red Dead does suffer from weak servers and will lag out during the winter. But it still holds up as a great game. From story to gameplay to environments, this is still an awesome western adventure. It's still one of my favorite games. The only reason I gave RDR a seven is because of the bad lag, bugs and glitches that happen; especially during the winter. But in general, I would give it more of a nine out of ten for the things it gets right. Particularly, in single player mode. Even the multiplayer is good. It's just the lag, bugs and glitches that are the primary problems. As well as other things that knock the game down to seven such as the corrupted files.
