I was blown away within the first few minutes of playing. The bar has been set very high for open world games with RDR2. I could not be anymore pleased with this purchase.

If I could give this 6 stars I would. If you even liked the first one a little bit, you're going to love this one! Sharper graphics, tighter gameplay. You simply can not go wrong!

Love this game. Graphics are the best. And being able to decide what to do and not what to do and then having the reaction of what probably happened back in the wild west is fun

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an amazing follow-up to the original. Rockstar has outdone themselves. There's an overwhelming amount of content and it should keep you busy for months.

I play several MMO games regularly on the PS4. This game rivals them for things to do on a daily basis despite a lack of online content at this time. The varied gameplay gives me a welcome respite if I don't feel like the old grind of competing with others or aligning with others to achieve a task. It is at least as fun as the old RDR. It might get five stars after the online content is added.

This is definitely one of the greatest open world games out there. The graphics are phenominal and just the gameplay from hunting and fishing to the storyline is fantastic

One of the best games of the generation and possibly one of the best ever made. The story is a slow burn but it’s absolutely fantastic.

I play this game all the time. It is an open world so you can go anywhere in the game. I haven’t tried the online part of the game yet but that will be my next adventure.

I love the game. Graphics and gameplay are insane. The only problem that I have is my bonus codes are not working. I bought/preordered the Special edition for PS4 and the codes don’t work for me. I tried to return it to bestbuy but they said it’s not their fault. I would update my rating to 5 stars if it gets fixed. The game is really fun and I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Rockstar has taken the art of console video game storytelling to the next level. The world building is on par with the current "golden age" run of serialized fiction on streaming. And the action elements are engaging, immersive and most of all fun. This is a gaming milestone, akin to Zelda: Breath of the Wild from last year. The special edition comes with a nice, large paper map, as well as a code for free single player goodies. I've been doing fine without them and I'm not a hardcore gamer. The code also gives access to extra single player side stories, which is part of what made me succumb to this version.
