After completing Red Dead 2, I was tempted to go back and replay the original (Red Dead Revolver doesn't count imo). Although the game seems much smaller in scope and detail these many years later, I still found it quite fun and almost refreshingly a bit simpler than its follow up Read Dead 2 (which I personally really enjoyed). 100% Redeemed on this second playthrough of Red Dead, and if you are a fan of the series, its fun to go through again if its been as long for you as it has been for me since I played it. My score reflects the time period for when it came out, as opposed to how it holds up against modern titles.
For those who like:
- Being a cowboy
- Open world games
- slow-motion shoot outs
- Involved story that you can take at your own pace
