na... it have small designs like it run's on same engine but the way you play it no... unlike gta where you run around in a city jacking cars. and beating up people for money or just going on a rampage and run from the poilce every mission or trying kill a pimp but that don't happen in rrd unless you truly want to...
you play as a good guy who's set on revange for to kill his old gang members helping others to find the people you looking for... don't wanna say anymore due to story
They have the same general gameplay mechanics, and they're both open world. And they both have similar online multiplayer.
From a pure mechanics aspect both games play the same. They use identical controller layouts, similar graphics and they pretty much feel the same. But once you really start to play read dead you will see that it grows very far apart from being like gta. Riding horses and lassoing enemies to the ground is a blast. I love GTA4 but i love read dead so much more.
Most people overrate Red Dead to hell (including the critics). I was actually looking forward to it before most people even knew it existed, as I really enjoyed the first one. I was pretty disappointed by the end, because of how damn similar it was to GTA 4, and how much more boring it was. The way missions are set up is exactly the same as GTA 4 pretty much (big letter pops up on the map, you go to it and the person wants you to do their dirty work or complete a favor), the dialogue is a lot more boring, bland and dry, the characters are for the most part pretty annoying and just a nuisance, the world is a lot more empty and uninhabited (what do you expect though, it is the Wild West), the "random" events are only a handful, and becomes stupid after recovering a stolen horse for the 10th time, the cover system is even worse than GTA's, etc.
The online for the game is pretty fun at first, because of Free Roam, but then after playing for a while, you realize there really isn't anything to do other than grind Gang Hideouts, or just shoot at random people, which you can easily just do in Single Player. The team based modes are just really bad because they don't work well with the awkward controls of Red Dead, and people will just sit in one spot in cover the whole match.
Basically, if you don't feel like you played GTA 4 in a different time period after playing this, than you are either just in denial or are riding the bandwagon.
Even though I am critical of this game, I still think it was a decent one, just not great like people are making it out to be.

It's GTA in the old west like Bully is GTA in school. Same stuff different setting.
Red dead redemption is the sequel to red dead revolver for the xbox/ps2 but this game isnt even close to the original game and redemption has a really bad storyline and this stupid game was so posed to come out 2006 honestly this game deserves a 4/10gundaicut
Brilliant review.
