    Great game but if you order from Best Buy and have the game shipped to you, it will most likely show up with the disc loose inside. I'm not happy about it. That's after it happening with the last SEVERAL games I've ordered from them. To the point that I'm no longer ordering from Best Buy online.

    What an experience

    I'm not much of a gamer, I generally only play sports games. But during the lockdown I wanted to have some fun at home, and I love western films, so I bought Red Dead Redemption 2, despite not playing the first one. It's really good. The controls are difficult at first but become easy. The open western world is insanely unpredictable and realistic. Sure, some parts of the story are a little contrived, and even a few aspects were kind of "woke" in my opinion, but it felt like I was part of a western film. The whole story and action reminded me a little bit of the movie "The Wild Bunch." That's how good this game is. I even found myself getting attached to the main character, Arthur. I won't spoil anything, but let's just say his story pulled on the heartstrings a little. I'm about 65% through right now and I'm already sad that the game will be over soon. It's a great game and in my biased and unqualified opinion, the best one ever.

    Outlaws for Life

    2018 Game of the Year is an understatement. Even after 5 years and new console releases, RDR2 is the greatest game ever!!! As a western fan, I love the Red Dead Redemption games, but you don’t have to like westerns to love this game. Story telling, drama, interaction, incredible details, breath taking scenery, secrets and mysteries galore… And, of course, horses… GTA of the West. Game of the century. Praying for a remaster to PS5 of both RDR & RDR2. As well as a RDR3.

    Best Rockstar Game Yet

    This game is a cinematic marvel. The production values are evident throughout each moment as you're taken back in time to run with outlaws clashing with the encroachment of civilization. The gameplay isn't changed drastically from previous Rockstar games. If you aren't a fan of the shooting or the control of GTA V, you probably will dislike this. A multitude of other systems are introduced to simulate survival and maintaining a camp full of fellow outlaws. Most of these systems are inobtrusive or can be ignored. Overall, I recommend this to people who like Rockstar's previous efforts.

    When Rock star releases a video game it is a major event in the game industry. This is the same as Star wars being released in the movies. Red Dead II is basically an open world sandbox game set in the Wild west at its end. The game is open world and what a world the developers have createed. I actually felt what it was like being in the wild west on the frontier. Without spoiling anything this game will keep you busy for months to come. Why are you reading this review go buy this game. This game is Enhanced for ps4 pro if you have a ps4 pro system.

    My son and I each played Red Dead Redemption 2 separately, and we both absolutely loved it. The world is incredibly detailed, the story is powerful, and the gameplay is top-notch. Even though we played on our own, we had a great time talking about our experiences, the choices we made, and all the little things we discovered. It’s so good that we’ve both gone back to play it again. This is one of those games that really sticks with you and keeps pulling you back in. Highly recommended for anyone who loves a great open-world adventure.

    Masterfully crafted world

    So this is an unusual circumstance where I am not even close to finishing the game, but already love it. In fact, I purposefully neglect main mission tracks to explore the world. From what I have read, the story does go places, and gets better so I have a lot to look forward to on that front because I liked what I have seen so far. That said, my preferred way to play is just to go out and see what unfolds. I might go hunting. I may help out a damsel in distress. I might start a drunken fight in a bar. Whatever happens to feel right in the moment. It's been a greatly immersive, and wonderful time, and I am in no rush to "finish" the game. Controls are more deliberate that what most people are accustomed to. One has to get over the snappy controls of a typical FPS. This is not that. There are settings you can tweak to approach this. Just understand the game has it's own deliberate pace. I frankly enjoy that aspect. It means you have to pay attention, and play mindfully instead of spamming buttons. At the same time it is not something you have to think about. It is pretty easy to grasp, and becomes second nature. Much like touch-typing, your fingers will know what to do if you play mindfully. I read/hear a lot about players shooting someone when they meant to do something else. I've done it as well. But then they blame the controls for not making sense... which is odd because they do not change (nor do the prompts). My advice is to slow down, and make sure you are doing what you mean to do. Anyway, if you loved the first Red Dead, and/or enjoy a open-world in a western setting, I highly recommend this game. Take your time. This is not a game you gulp down in order to rush credits. Savor every sip. Find a pace that works for you.

    I am still playing the story mode and it has been great so far. The map feels huge due to the limits of movement but it has so much to do that will be sure to take all your time
