We have had the chance to spend a day in its world; six hours to explore Rockstar's biggest map yet and familiarise ourselves with the ragtag members of the van der Linde gang. In our series of articles, we explore why Red Dead Redemption 2 could be Rockstar's best story yet.

considering this is only the second game of the series in 8 years and with the first game being so good - i think it should be the most anticipated game of this year.

NATHAN20002068d ago

I know I do not know Arthur morgan yet, but I do not find him charismatic, rdr had such an incredible protagonist Rdr has won more than 100 game awards of the year, as well as many Best character awards outpacing even mass effect 2 and Sheppard, but I feel that Rdr 2 has fallen short of its original

How are you going to say that RDR2 has fallen short of the original when it's not even out yet? We've only gotten tiny previews and snippets of game play so I think it is counter productive to assume that any department of RDR1 is better than RDR2. Let's just wait until we all have it in our hands before jumping to conclusions.

Skankinruby2068d ago

Dude you got balls. Calling it now the comment police is gonna come at you hard. Good for you not being a sheep and speaking your mind. I personally found this second to gta 5 as most overrated game of all time.

King_Noctis2068d ago

Good that you think that way. And I hope you will never play this game.

Me and other people on the other hand will be enjoying this game day one.

cooperdnizzle2068d ago

Yeah GTA where never really my thing too. But I do like some red dead. Hopefully you play it and maybe it changes your mind. If not so many other great games to play.

NATHAN20002067d ago

here in my country, Brazil red dead is not at all popular god of war, last of us, gta 5 skyrim has 5 times more public and are treated as gods and not games

Agreed. I'm not looking forward to this dude at all. He looks bland ASF. Boring cookie cutter cowboy, but I hope I'm wrong. Patiently looking forward to the game though. I have it pre-ordered

mandingo2068d ago

It's fallen short because one character who you barely know anything about isn't charismatic? You've already made it up in your mind that no matter what the game will be worse than the original. Arthur could be an amazing character and the game could be just as amazing but it still won't be as good because you've already made up your mind. Come on now that ain't fair.

brownbanana2068d ago

I actually think that RDR 3 has a way more boring main character. It was not until RDR 5 that Rockstar really made another great protagonist. It is good to know, that RDR 6, 7, 8 and even 9 have some really well written and charismatic central characters.

Oh, and if you are wondering. Just like NATHAN2000, I'm from the future and have also played RDR2 ... and 3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9!

shinoff218316d ago

They gotta do better on the premium side for sure. Where are any of those jrpgs from the ps1 Era. Come on Sony.

jznrpg16d ago

Most of the Sony JRPGS have been released. Square has a ton that could be ported over but they would need Squares involvement.

VenomUK16d ago

Crime Boss! I know it hasn't reviewed well but I love the eighties action movie vibe of the trailer but didn't want to risk any money on it so this is a great way for me to play it.

Exvalos16d ago

I don't know why Sony is not getting some of the legendary ps1 games from square like parasite eve, xenogears, brave fencer musashi

outsider162416d ago

Looking at this list, i gotta ask what is even the point of premium?

raWfodog16d ago

I'm good with just my PS+ Essential

GamerRN16d ago

I have premium, and I'm also wondering why I have it

Xeofate16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

I think there are a ton of good games on Premium, and don't sleep on the movie collection if you like 90's and 2000's movies, the selection is stacked with classics and gets updated pretty regularly.

Abnor_Mal16d ago

G-Police is a game I have fond memories of and will definitely download to replay. I remember controlling your helicopter was a bit difficult and would make my hand cramp having to press all the shoulder buttons to go up and down and I think yaw left and right.

The next game they should add to Classics is Colony Wars, and I wouldn’t mind replaying Nightmare Creatures. I’d also like to replay Black, PSI Ope: The Mindgate Conspiracy.

Redgrave16d ago

Nightmare Creatures, Deathtrap Dungeon, Urban Chaos

TheColbertinator16d ago

Colony Wars, G-Police, Black and PsiOps were all amazing games. Such creative games from a golden age.

DefenderOfDoom215d ago

I would love to play Black again on a higher difficult setting . Black was so fun to play!

MrBaskerville16d ago

G-Police is nice. But might be among the hardest games I've ever played.

Bathyj16d ago

G Police.
I almost want to upgrade for that.

But let's face it, there's no way the game has held up.

MrBaskerville16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

You can just buy it, you don't need premium.

And it's still good, but there's a couple of early missions that are extremely tough. But they don't really make games like this anymore.

DarXyde16d ago

2Xtreme was the first game I ever bought for PS Plus (I still have the PS1 version somewhere).

Game is awful, but it's stupid fun. Like Thrasher: Skate and Destroy.

Man.... Premium has been a massive letdown but this is the only month they don't have a single thing for me. Oh well. I've gotten my money's worth so far and still need to finish up Rebirth and Rise of the Ronin then I'll hop back in to Relink and Helldivers after that.

hiroyukisanada15d ago

I should clarify that I was referring to the Classics catalog, in particular. Only 1 PS1 game I've loved is the Legend of Dragoon and the Tekken/Soul Caliburs on PSP

Petebloodyonion16d ago

RDR2 is a win for Sony and Crime boss is a good fit to help promote a struggling game
but we're far from what was removed this month (including Horizon Zero Dawn)
https://www.pushsquare.com/...

crazyCoconuts16d ago

Yeah I was hoping burning shores would have been added now that it's a year old vs. the base game being removed.
I wouldn't be surprised if both MS and PS continue to either walk back the quality of games in the sub services or increase the price, since it's now clearer to them how cannibalistic these services are

isarai16d ago

The game deserves to struggle, it's garbage

Petebloodyonion16d ago

Indeed it's bad but it does offer incredible Hollywood star power so for free it might draw a crowd while giving a boost to this game.
Just remember Fallout 76 was the biggest turd and yet there are now tons of ppl playing it.

shinoff218315d ago

When I seen video on this game I thought Holy sht this is gonna be awesome. Then the footage continued and I seen what type of game it was going for. Was so disappointed. Would've loved a gta style game not from Rockstar,like we had back in the day some studios trying. I'm all about being different but a little gta clone idea been cool with.

Yui_Suzumiya15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

To be fair, I'd play Crime Boss before GTA any day. I mean I have no interest in either but just for the celebs I'd pick Crime Boss, lol

JL293016d ago

How is a 6 year old game a win for anything? Anyone who cares has already played it.

Petebloodyonion16d ago

Simply because ppl do play it!
As much as I don't like it GTA V always managed a boost of ppl when it was offered on Game Pass or PS+.
NOW RDR 2 was never offered on a subscription service.
Again the point isn't about will hardcore gamers play the game because we already played it. it's about having a huge star power game never offered on service that will make casual ppl subscribe to it.

MrBaskerville16d ago

You are aware that new people are born every day? All the 5 year olds probably didn't play it when it released.

But I guess you played every game ever released, which is quite impressive.

JL293015d ago Show
seanpitt2316d ago

A 6 years old game is a win? Yes it's a masterpiece but I am sure most of hardcore gamers have already played it! I doubt it would be shifting ps plus extra subs if there was a native ps5 version or 60fps option then maybe

6 Games That Genuinely Deserve A Current-Gen Upgrade

Games such as Mad Max, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Batman: Arkham Knight desperately deserve a modern-day revisit.

thorstein44d ago

Mad Max is underrated. Such a fun game.

Cacabunga44d ago (Edited 44d ago )

RDR2 still looks astounding on PS4 Pro. i cannot imagine how it could look with a next gen upgrade.

JonTheGod43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

Probably not very different.

No idea why this article is highlighting recent beautiful graphically-advanced games and saying they need current gen makeovers. They already look better than most new releases; just compare Arkham Knight and Suicide Squad!

exputers43d ago

I see what you did there.

Yi-Long43d ago

It's obviously never gonna happen since Sony killed the game and studio, but Driveclub. Even in its current state, 10 years after release, it still puts many competitors to shame ...

Demetrius43d ago

I'm not into racing games but yeah I even looked at gameplay of that sometimes

redrum0615d ago

It's a shame they cancelled the game. Definitely the best racing game I've ever played on Playstation. Just got GT7, but it feels so slow and less arcade-y, which is to be expected of a sim racer of course, that I just enjoy it less.
Driveclub also graphically looked insanely good for its time. I wonder what a Driveclub 2 would look like for the PS5.

Demetrius43d ago

Mad max ikr! Far cry primal, it amuses me how ubisoft just left ac unity hanging, sadly most of the good staff left from rocksteady while being forced to make that abomination smh
