Red Dead Redemption is a Masterpiece

I finished the game yesterday and it is one of the best games I've ever played, even better than ocarina of time

anyone agree?

Awesome game worthy of a 9. Ocarina of Time is a 10 ;)

Beat me to it, but maybe, i would give RDR an 8.5

nope. I couldn't even finish the game. It was a good game but not as good as any of the GTA games.

GOTY 2010

It was alright but not nearly as great as I though. And yeah,it´s better than Ocarina,but then again,most games are. ;)

If you stopped in Mexico that is why :P. Mexico SUCKS lol. The beginning and end are awesome, but the middle part (mexico) does get old fast.

Says who? You mean to tell me the same atmosphere over and over again until the end is better than one of the most fun and diverse worlds in gaming? I don't think so, but obviously to each their own.

I think it's a fantastic open-world game, I don't think I'd call it a masterpiece but it's a game that I really enjoyed.fabz_95

I will say that GTAIV is a masterpiece. RDR is not. That is my opinion and I'm standing by it.

And every other game ever :P.

Yes, my favorite game this gen and all-time(until GTA V comes out)...

Everything about it is great and I'm going to replay the INCREDIBLE story again(so I can get that achievement where you use the same horse)...

For a fan of classic western films (John Ford flicks, Segio Leone spaghetti westerns, Unforgiven by Eastwood, etc.) the game is nearly perfect. There are some things I would like to made better should we ever get a sequel, but not much. I loved the atmosphere, the gameplay was exciting, and it was just an incredible feeling to be able to explore such a vibrant western setting. So yes, I agree, it is a masterpiece, or at the least, close to one.

Honestly, if you love western films, I can't see how you can't at least appreciate the game.

extremely overrated like almost ever other R* game.

TC, I disagree, and not because I disagree with you all the time. I found the game to be too short, I didn't like the story (except for the ending) and freeraoming wasn't that much fun. The shooting is very fun though, but that's about it, and some of the missions had no shooting so yeah. RDR is worth the 8 I gave it and nothing else.

It was a good game. But I don't think it's something I would play twice. The old R* formula is getting a little too stale for me.

Plus, there isn't anything worth doing outside of the missions.

thank you so much for saying this. That is exactly what I was thinking.

[QUOTE="Captainqwark10"] In terms of what? RDR is more playable and has better character control and atmosphere. Both are overly repetitive though.Captainqwark10

Zelda had very diverse environments while RDR was like "oh cool the ten thousandth bush I've seen."

This.

HOw is Ocarina of Time's world repetitive. I am a stickler for interesting and diverse environments, and OoT nailed it. Every place looks unique and each have their own feel. Even if its a grassy field to a lake surrounded by grass there is a huge difference. I honestly do no know how anyone could say OoT has repetitive environments.

I got bored fairly quick. The story didn't interest me, most of the missions were uninteresting (and mostly followed the same formula), and the mini-games weren't that good, imo. I wanted to like it because I'm a huge fan of western films (Unforgiven, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and For a Few Dollars More), but I couldn't get into it.

It was definitely good, but when I finished it I had no interest in ever picking it up again. So, no, I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.

[QUOTE="Captainqwark10"] Zelda doesn't have a repeptive atmosphere? Fun is subjective, and Diverse? I agree we all have opinions but the atmosphere is repeptive in both. Maybe not to the same extent.NaveedLife

They can't without sounding like they have no idea what they're talking about.

Also, when was atmosphere such a huge factor in any genre other than horror? Honestly? I keep hearing how RDR had a great atmoshpere (even though it wasn't that great).

Yeah, sure.

A repetitious, boring, filler-stuffed "masterpiece" that takes a handful of content and recycles it out four or five times over, like a dollop of raspberry jam spread over an immense, barren slice of toast, so scarce of flavor that each bite is more of a chore than the last.

The game sucks, and it sucks all the more in comparison with OoT, which is actually quite good.

So soyu're complaining about how the hub part of Hyrule never changed? Because outside of every dungeon is a new area. But whatever.

I'll re ask my question; when did atmosphere become so important in non horror games?

[QUOTE="madsnakehhh"]

[QUOTE="Arach666"] Nah man,Ocarina is poo poo. :PArach666

It was better than System Shock :P

Man, i forgot the 2, damn, damn, well played sir.

This game is great! Got 100% in it, trying to get money for undead
