While it really doesn't display HDR 4K correctly, I don't care. The graphics and story are some of the best if any game I have ever owned. Buy it!!!!!!

Rockstar has hit it out of the park again. The realism of this game is uncanny. I find myself simply looking at the surroundings. Well done!

97/100 on metacritic. Contender for game of the year. Extremely detailed open world. Adult story line. Live out your cowboy western fantasy.

Absolutely stunning graphics. Very interesting story mode. Challenging and time consuming. Clearly a work of art and dedication by RockStar

On the Path to Redemption

It's an excellent Rock Star title. It's graphically impressive and the level of detail far exceeds the original; however, it should be stated that sometimes the game is not what a typical gamer would consider "fun." It is an adventure....in the sense that climbing a mountain is a fun endeavor; but, what if you had to play a game of checkers, then chess, then hopscotch every 100 yards. I look forward to experiencing the END.

What else can I say about this game that no one has? Probably nothing, BUT, I will double-down on what everyone else has said about it. This game is amazing. Probably the best game I have played this year (I am so sorry Spider-man). The only thing I will say is that its a little overwhelming with all of the controls and options. But eventually you will get the control of things and It'll be a lot easier to rule the West.

HDR Needs Fix

This game is definitely worthy as the best open world game, but unfortunately Rockstar dropped the ball on modern enthusiast systems with the lack of true HDR. Just Youtube fake HDR Red Dead. If you planned on buying this for your new HDR 4K system, you'll have to wait, or worse, never receive pure HDR support.

Rockstar has done it again. Prepare to lose track of time in the old west. Big open beautiful world, with an amazing eye to detail. My one com0laint wasn't for the game but the special edition. I thought the map would be cloth which it isn't nor does the game come in a staircase. Other than that good game!
