One should remember that Red Dead Online is still in a beta state. On top of that, the game is immensely popular, meaning servers are probably being hit hard, even with the controlled rollout they did by granting access to only certain players at first. All in all, it is running smoother than GTA Online did in its beginning months, and with time, the online mode is sure to become incredi

Red Dead Redemption 2 will release for PS4 and Xbox One on October 26th, 2018. If you have yet to pick up a copy of the game, you can do that right now over on Amazon before it launches later this month.

Playing RDR2 in first-person could mean a world of difference for the very world. As mentioned, the west of Red Dead Redemption 2 is massive and seeing some of the vistas that litter every corner of this game are sure to be breathtaking. It’s that feeling of going on a good hike only to come up over whatever ridge and be swept away by what lays just over that horizon line. The world of RDR2 looks to be vastly versatile with mountains, plains, swamps and deserts. Traveling through the world of RDR2 in first-person is sure to be even more breathtaking than having to watch the butt-end of a horse as it poops. Not that there is anything wrong with the level of detail Rockstar is going for, but at least you won’t have to watch your horse do the business. Kidding aside, again, like GTAV when brought to first-person there was something much more tangible present in making ones’ way through the world. Being on the ground level of it all while interacting with all of it feels quite different than traveling through that same world in third-person.

Welcome to This Week in Gaming, where we take a look back at some of the most newsworthy events in gaming history from last year to even decades ago that happened this very week. Take a gander at some of the highlights and see which spark nostalgia and which may still be news to you.

It’s no secret that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be Rockstar’s most ambitious open-world game yet, with a map that is as massive as it is rich with characters, places and things to do. RDR2 is promising a living world and from the previews of said game it looks like RDR2 is going to deliver just that. Immersing ones’ self in the boots of Arthur Morgan (protagonist) would be a missed opportunity for feeling that immersion on an entirely different level. Things look a lot different when their happening through our eyes. While third person offers certain game vantages it can take away from the feeling of actually being whatever character.

"Rockstar Games has employed some creative techniques in cross-promotion. I think they're pretty exciting. Social Club has an awful lot of members and they're avid fans not just of Grand Theft Auto, not just of Red Dead Redemption 2 legendary animals|https://reddeadstation.com/ Dead Redemption, but also fans of Rockstar Games. I think it's great that there is some cross-promotion going

President Karl Slatoff also mentioned that Red Dead Redemption 2 will have an "all-new online experience," but declined to provide more information about it. The wording seems to indicate that the online feature of the game will be in some way different from Grand Theft Auto Online, but at the moment we have no idea

The post has players on social media very excited, and has caused a wave of speculation over a new remaster for Red Dead Redemption 2 . As Synth Potato also points out, the Oblivion remaster got a surprise release shortly after its Steam page was updated in a similar way, though this is of course speculative as w

People have said too many of the missions end with a massive gunfight. Adversely, others have griped about too many of the missions revolving around chores and mundane tasks. So, which one is it? Does the game shove violence into the player's face at every opportunity or is there not enough of

The Rockstar Steam update for Red Dead Redemption 2 on October 3 included changes to the game description, removing references to " Red Dead Online" from the thumbnail image, adjusting assets and timestamps, and adding support for new langua

The second game has gotten more flack for this, and it is probably due to the sheer size of it. There are over one hundred story missions, and numerous side quests stacked on top of that, meaning there are tons of shootouts. No one complains that Grand Theft Auto has too much shooting, so why does Red Dead get criticized harshly for t

Whether wanting to play in third-person as RDR2 is presented or taking the plunge and playing entirely in first-person, Red Dead Redemption 2 is sure to be fun. It just might be more fun playing entirely through the eyes of Arthur. Obviously, one is not better than the other, but having the opportunity to experience the West with ones’ own eyes on the ground level of it all, with the amount of detail Rockstar has put in is sure to be a wildly different experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out October 27 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
