    What an accomplishment. This is the video game that will change the future. Graphics in some cases almost photorealistic. A deep story with side missions that are as entertaining and deep as the main story missions. Everything in this game has a purpose to make you feel you are part of that world. Warning: If you like fast easy to play video games, this is not for sure.

    GAME OF THE YEAR

    Hands down the best game of 2018. This game is so fun while being so slow. It is a slow paced game but that's to be expected. The presentation is fantastic. The graphics are so life-like that it shows that Rockstar has put in more than 100% on this project. The minor details such as weather effects, searching cabinets, post battle damage, and taking care of your horse and yourself. All of this is what makes it so amazing, the game simulates life but in the wild, wild west. The game play is slow but that's to be expected in terms of the setting. But the combat, hunting, and traveling are all unique in its own right. Hunting has its own mechanics and also combat and stealth. This is the most complete game I've ever played. And online is coming soon and that is probably gonna be Siiick.

    Rockstar has always put out a QUALITY product and Red Dead 2 is no exception. This game is simply gorgeous to look at. Hands down the best graphics I've ever seen. The controls are probably the game's main sticking point - they can be cumbersome but if you've been gaming for awhile you'll get used to 'em. And this game is H-U-G-E! Bravo Rockstar!

    This game is so so good. That said, it does look far better on XBOX one X... but its not a deal breaker on PS4 Pro. It's just a little blurry on 4k settings. I play on a LG 4K OLED C6 series... and I had to adjust my Pro down to 1080p. Hopefully Rockstar patches it because the game is SUPER great. It still looks awesome, and it plays like a dream.

    I have only about 4 hours invested in the game, but it is awesome. If you liked Red Dead Redemption, it is more of the same. As a typical Rock Star game, it is deep and involved. I might have missed it in the first one but weather plays a bigger effect on your character. I highly recommend this game but warning, it is a Mature game from rockstar.

    Awesome 2nd entry to the Red Dead Redemption series. VERY realistic gameplay. It's not all action from start to finish, there is quite a bit of downtime throughout the game, but it's very addicting and engaging. Tons of things to do apart from the main story mode...robbing banks and trains, hunting, fishing, and just being an outlaw. Love it!

    Open world at its best

    I'm guessing I'm about halfway through chapter 4 and I have to say it's the peak of open world gaming in my opinion. No world has ever felt as alive and lived in. It's hard to be timely with anything you do because there are between 10-15 distractions from point A to point B. Between random strangers asking you for help, high ranking animals to hunt, bad guys jumping you as you mosey along the path or just seeing something that looks interesting in the distance and wanting to see it closer, you will find yourself unable to stay on course at times. And these are the best kind of distractions to the point where some of them become their own side quests that can be far more entertaining than some of the main quests. It has it's issues and I know a lot of people complain about being forced to walk in certain situations but the game is meant to be taken in slowly. You eat before you go out hunting, you make sure to hunt some small game while hunting so you can have food to eat before you camp for the night, you strike up conversations with people around the cooking pot while you have coffee and learn more about the world and your fellow camp members. It's a must play and immediate GOTY contender.

    This game is made for gamers who like to immerse themselves in the story. The graphics are top notch and the interaction your character has with his surrounding are so much fun to take part in. You feel like you are really there because you get to do everything the character would do in real life including brushing the horses!

    If you played the first game then you will love this second version. The story line is great not to mention the next gen graphics. Everything looks awesome not to mention the environment. When the wind blows you can see it in everything like the trees, horses tail, characters hair and much more. Great game a must have.

    This game is excellent and worthy of enshrineing on a ps4 Mt Rushmore. Whether you like to enjoy playing the narrative of the story mode, exploring the vast and ever-evolving sandbox of the early west, or testing your lead against other gamers online, this game provides uncountable hours of fun.

    Loved the first one. Was anxiously waiting for this one. As a Farcry, Elder scrolls, and open word FPRPG fan, this game totally delivers. Possibilities are endless. Only draw back is how many times I’ve accidentally shot people/horses/etc with the controls. It got easier but the first few hours were tough.

    I don't like GTA Series but I loved Red Dead Redemption (weird I know). I have been waiting for this game. It has not majorly disappointed (glitchy here and there but expected in such a massive game). Red Dead Online needs some patching but this will continue for years. Rockstar comes out with another hit.

    My Favorite Game of ALL TIME

    Don't even know where to begin with this one. Rockstar really outdid themselves. Every aspect of this game is breathtaking. I was so immersed from start to finish and even now, having completed the game a few months ago, I still miss the excitement of completing all the stories and side missions. I will say that the game is very complex at first as there's so many little feature that you need to maintain. I'd suggest reading some online tutorials (while avoiding spoilers) to help you navigate the game's features more easily. Nonetheless, once you get the hang of it, this game is hands down one of the best, if not THE BEST, game out there! The story is so immersive, the landscape so beautiful, and the soundtrack so captivatingly original that I couldn't believe what I was playing. I spent hours upon hours free-roaming because I just couldn't get enough. If you haven't had the privilege of dawning Arthur Morgan's gamblers hat and mounting your horse, buy this immediately - you won't regret it!

    This has been a fun experience you can bring yourself further into the game by playing in a cinematic mode that you can toggle on or off as you want. The only thing that can be frustrating about this game is getting used to the controls but I would highly recommend this game to anyone willing to try it.

    Great storyline, full of drama and funny moments. Gameplay is pretty great, however it is a Rockstar game, so menu actions can be a bit clunky. A well built world full of so much to explore, you'll spend hours riding across the land fishing, hunting, cooking, exploring. You need to play this game.

    Who said single player is dead? Red Dead Redemption 2 proves otherwise. The gameplay feels familiar which is accompanied with a living world filled with rich details. Rockstar is a developer that walks its own path in creating masterpieces no matter how long it takes. This game is worth the wait.
