Just got this game yesterday and, honestly, I would have already sat in
front of my monitor for days if I don't have to go to work! Well, at least
I got a job to pay off my game collections, which is good :) I am thankful :)
As a player, I am always into sand-box/RPG type of game. If I can only choose
one game for life, I would say Fallout series (1, 2 and 3). However, in my
first 5 hours game time with Red Dead Redemption, I found lot of similarities
between Fallout 3 and this Red Dead Redemption: they both have a
virtual-realistic free world for you to explore, full of random missions apart
from the main task, great voice acting, brilliant game play as well. I can't
say too much about the storyline yet, as I am still at the stage of exploring
the system and the world. But if you love Fallout 3, if you love Sleeping Dogs,
this is the game you must have! Don't get me wrong, I love Sleeping Dogs, in
fact, I just finish it and I truly love it. But this Red Dead Redemption is
SOMETHING ELSE, it has the extra magic touch, lot of attention to the details:
lighting, interaction between characters and even the horse riding system is
interesting. Anyway, I implore you to have this game! You will not
regret it!
