Red Dead Redemption Review

:rolleyes:

Good one...

Sounds like Fallout 3 to me :p

The following describes one of two games;

Travelling round an open world environment, completing main story missions, completing side missions, shooting people and interacting with other characters.

Is it GTA or RDR?

See what I did there?

You haven't played it either El-Dev... so you don't know if it is like GTA or not...see what I did there?

Just a note to say that i've removed the line about there being no manual aim in GTA IV, which was completely wrong. Not sure why I thought that... I suppose I just must have used manual aim a lot more in this game.

I personally don't see many differences between it and GTA. Seeing as you appear to have played it can you highlight them for me?

El-Dev likes to court a bit of controversy.

You idiots, it is NOT like GTA, I am not a fan of GTA, but this game ia amazing, talk about close minded guppies. There are small similarities in basic mechanics, but the game is a lot different and better then the GTA series.

Cheers Neon was going to the wrong preview.

Also aren't they releasing free DLC multiplayer missions in June?

Cheers for the heads-up... fixed.

Thats a dead link Neon can't seem to find it either.

and was wondering if it comes with co op or will it just come with the dlc?

The way multiplayer works is that there's a free-roaming mode where you can up to 15 others can ride around the world. You can form a posse (essentially a squad) of up to four riders, but there's nothing to stop more people working together if you've got headsets on...

There aren't any dedicated missions in free-roam mode, as far as I know, but there are gang hideouts to clear out and things like that. There are also lots of multiplayer challenges that you can enter with or without your posse. The whole world is open up to you, but I don't think you can play poker or the other minigames, which is a shame.

Free-roam also acts as a lobby for the various deathmatch modes. There are shootouts and grab-the-gold scenarios, each with free-for-all and team-based variants.

Then at some point later in the year there's a set of DLC co-op missions coming, which I presume (hope) will be a bit like the main campaign missions, only with a buddy.

If you've not yet done so, you can read our preview of RDR's multiplayer here.
