The game perfectly captures the expansiveness of frontier life and the gritty gunplay of spaghetti westerns, rightfully earning its place alongside the great Western films and the best Rockstar games. [Issue#206, p.86]

While Rockstar San Diego may find some difficulty in filling its open expanses with interesting and emergent play, it does imbue it with a stark beauty and compelling narrative that makes Redemption more than just an allusion to cinema, but a piece of work that can confidently stand next to it. [Issue#96, p.94]

It's a tremendously detailed and authentic realisation of the Wild West with great stories, characters and inner workings.

The biggest strengths of RDR1 are its brilliantly written dialogue and its memorable, unique **** game obviously isn’t as deep or as expansive as RDR2, but it has its own identity and atmosphere — a more classic western feel. It tells its story incredibly well, has plenty of unforgettable moments, and proves that you don’t need tons of mechanics to create a truly special adventure.

If you are looking for a video game that transcends the medium and delivers a truly unforgettable artistic experience, Red Dead Redemption (and its breathtaking sequel) is an absolute must-play. From the moment you step foot into its vast, living, and breathing open world, you realize you aren't just playing a game—you are living a western epic.

Rockstar have redeemed themselves and there's no need to return to the city after providing this compelling argument against automotive transportation.

If this game's concepts seem even remotely interesting to you, head out immediately to your nearest game store and slap your cash down. The single-player story alone is more than worth the price of admission, and the multiplayer is truly unique and will likely evolve into something very special as the community continues to grow.

This is so much more than a mere retooling of Rockstar's tried and tested open world formula – it's an artful take on a world long lost, an evocative paean to not only the Western genre but also to the beautiful expanse of the American landscape.

Certainly not without a few imperfections, Red Dead Redemption is almost unquestionably the best Western-themed game ever, with a great Old West story, an amazingly detailed and expansive landscape that most Rockstar sandbox games are famous for and overall engrossing gameplay that will keep gamers riding off into the sunset for dozens of hours.

Everything that we loved about GTA IV but with its own voice. A gaming goldmine. [Aug 2010, p.81]

Gorgeous and feature packed, it's the new benchmark of open world adventures and a must play for gamers with itchy trigger fingers.
75
In the end, Red Dead Redemption is going to please a lot of gamers who are simply starved for a new world to explore and the Wild West, even though the game takes place at the end of that era, is ripe for the taking.

Gameplay correct mais pas exceptionnel histoire marquante la conclusion de John Marston est excellente le jeu est sorti en 2010 mais toujours correct et il a pas très mal vieilli comme certains le disent open world correct, le 100%/Platine sont vraiment accessibles mais demande du temps en général Jeu excellent dans son temps et aujourd’hui c’est un jeu correct mais vaut pas les 50€ pour ses versions Switch,PS5,PS4,Xbox One,Xbox Series,Switch2, Mais si vous avez fait Red Dead Redemption 2 et que vous êtes fan de la licence vous devriez faire ce jeu.

Melhor jogo da sétima geração, aprofunda muito bem o velho oeste, o John Marston é o segundo melhor protagonista de todos os jogos, e diferente do Leon de re4, john Marston é muito bem desenvolvido e aprofundado, a gameplay é a segunda melhor da história
