7 Minutes of Red Dead Redemption Gameplay!

Here are 7 minutes of brand new red dead redemption gameplay !

[Dave1351]

I wonder if this will be any good, im not a big fan of western games. Ill probly rent it to see it i like it first

[toaster]

Wait.. what western games? There are like... 3 of them, lol.

Western is a nice change of scenery from the modern, urban, and jungle that a lot of games are using this gen.

[Mr_Showtime1]

Totally agree with toaster. western games are a relatively unexplored area, mainly because of the fact so many people like Dave1351 are more caught up in stereotypical Urban settings or else the Middle East. I'm so glad Rockstar decided to take this direction with the game, feels like a breath of fresh air.

[Rainstorm81]

Oregon Trail, Sunset Riders, Red Dead Revolver, Call of Juarez, and GUN....Is all that comes to mind when it comes to western games.

I feel good about Red Dead Redemption as it looks to trump every western game before it.

[Krugsy]

My thoughts also. All these people who are decrying western games don't really have too much to compare it to. Its taken years of FPS to build up a repertoire of games to compare one to another. If they said they didn't like the western genre in general (like movies/games/books etc) then that would make some small bit of sense as there definitely is a list of genre conventions or cliches' belonging to the Western that some people may not find attractive.

[nveenio]

I agree. I love the idea of an old-west game. I think the reason they never caught on is because the technology didn't support enough "stuff" before now. In the old west, there really wasn't much to see--unlike an urban environment, where everything seems extra busy. But it looks like R* has really worked at making sure there's lots to do here. I hope they pulled it off.

[Dave1351]

Ever heard of call of juarez? that game wasnt very good. But im a fan of anything made by rockstar

[Inside_out]

Yeah...the single player with all the "howdy partner" and "darn tooting" cowboy vernacular could cause some brain bleeding after a while...like after 30 mins...The multi-player looks really good...not sure how the ole west guns handle but it could be worth it by itself....NOT the best clip....May rent or just wait till price gets to $30 or so....There are some great vids out, but they are put together so not really game play vids...

[Trey_4_life]

This will be my horse after 2 hours of me going on a shooting spree around local towns.....

http://www.creepygif.com/im...

[toaster]

Ok well maybe 3 was an exaggeration. But compared to the countless number of games that use city and jungle the Wild West is different. And There are few western open-world games where you are free to move from one mission to another. GUN did that and gave the player a sense of freedom to go wherever you want to, do whatever you want and to, shoot whatever you want.

Oh.. and Oregon Trail is not what that people think of when they hear Wild West. The gunslinging ranger that roams the plains in search of justice or the outlaw that defies the law and rides into the sunset with a beautiful damsel in distress. NOT Oregon Trail.. lol.

[nveenio]

Agreed. Oregon Trail is NOT a western game, simply for the fact that there was no "West" until the Oregon Trail was run and the west was settled.

If anything, the Oregon Trail is a prequel to the Wild West.

[himdeel]

...but I am looking forward to just getting on my horse and heading out into the wilderness to see what I can see. I'll probably spend a lot of time doing nothing in particular but exploring the west and hunting. Still VERY excited and should've taken the day off like I did when GOW3 dropped but waited too late to put in my request :(

[iceman06]

I have a tendency to do that with ALL of my open world games. Sometimes even before I touch any specific goals I will just walk, drive, fly, or whatever method of ambulation is supplied and explore the world. I love to see the little details and the interaction of NPC's in the world. GTA was always great for this, so I am assuming that RDR will just add to this pleasure!

[ThanatosDMC]

Damn, they took that down fast! I didnt get to see it at all.

[RPcinemas]

yeah the game is very addictive and fun though.

[jahcure]

GTA and Clint Eastwood has a baby. Looks very GTAish tho

[DTForever]

B-O-R-I-N-G !!!!

[Rainstorm81]

You can tell its boring from a 7min clip of gameplay with bad quality???

I wish i had your eyes /s

[You Noob]

S-T-U-P-I-D !!!!

How the hell you can judge from 7 min clip? -.-"

[sak500]

Instead of driving cars across towns now you'll get weird missions across teh map and you have a horse to ride. I'll pass for now.

[viperfx]

What is so good about this game? I don't understand the reviews and praises its been getting. Someone please tell me!

[retrofly]

Why don't you go to the official website and check out the videos.

http://www.rockstargames.co...

[BeaArthur]

What don't you understand about it? Games come out, people review them. You have never played it so you would have no idea. You probably just don't like the GTA series so you assume this game is going to suck.

[PiTCHBLaCK]

I Been hearing allot about this game, Looks awesome and western to boot!, Got to check this out.

Maybe you don't understand it because It's Western? how many Western games are there?

[retrofly]

Wow 2 disagrees for trying to help someone, nice community we have here.....

[DARK WITNESS]

ok.....

What is NOT so good about it then, You tell us...

What games do you think are better and why ?

Name one game with multiplayer doing what this game does...

Name the game with the same level of animation, physics, lighting - while being open world ( twice the size of San-andreas ) and still managing to have multiplayer ( co-op will be added later via DLC ) etc.

There have been some great open world games this gen but most of them have been great at one thing and lacking in something else.

Red Dead manages to cover everything and still do something none of the others have done well at all ... and it still manages to look gorgeous.

How many other games have such "alive" organic environments.

If you really can't see what people are loving about this game, then I have to wonder what do you love about any game ?

Are you the type of gamer that only plays exclusives so you can look at the textures and particle effects for 8 hours and then say it's the best game ever ?

If you don't like Western theme, cool.. that's understandable.

But I guess I am in the same boat, I don't understand how someone cannot see why this game is going to be so great and why it does not deserve such high praise.

[ape007]

dark witness. +1-up

[sak500]

It's GTAIV with western skins. The cars are now horses. Same hype of GTAIV and now this. I think it will become boring faster than Wii.

Reminds me of Assassins Creed and how it got boring fast.

[bjornbear]

you have the best euphoria engine iteration

you have a massive world with constant action with or without your presence

various things to do: hunting, saving people, hunting bounties, escaping bounties, saloon games, working with the law, robbing people, protecting a carriage/ hijacking a carriage, STORY MISSIONs,

ONlLINE WORLD with your posse where you can: play matches, roam around to gether and hunt, mess around, race, do co-op missions, take down gang hide outs...

and all of this with a great death animations and graphics:

what IS there missing? SOME ONE PLEASE TELL ME

[Akagi]

Pc gamer, eh? I'd join you too in the hating except I have a PS3.

[viperfx]

Guess alot of people are ughh "Passionate" about this game. Ok ok, i just meant that i have not seen much of the game, such as good quality ingame footage, some action sequences etc.
I do have a ps3 and PC, so that's not the matter here.
I have seen written reviews but not any videos. Maybe I westerns arent my thing. Just like broke back mountain wasn't.... ok bad joke.

I will defiantly look out for some VIDEO reviews so I can decide whether to give this game a try or not.

was expecting a ton of disagrees lol, so thanks :)

[PS360PCROCKS]

Yeah you got lucky Viper. I said the EXACT same thing you said yesterday I was wondering what the hype was all about and I got like 9 disagrees and people telling me I'm "trolling"

[retrofly]

Look brutal, shame the quality is low and we didnt really get to see anything :(.
Wonder when the online review embargo will be lifted? I'm guessing Monday?

[Hotel_Moscow]

im still wondering if the horses can jump if my horse cant jump then i will rage

[Figboy]

that the horses will automatically jump over obstacles, and won't run off cliffs, kind of like Agro in Shadow of the Colossus.

[jmare]

It depends on the kind of "horse". I read somewhere that donkeys can't jump anything and there are different levels of horses. Like there are sickly horses and then there are bad ass horses. But that might just be for multiplayer, but it stands to reason that the same would apply to single player. Also, I think the condition of the horse matters too.

[Gameplay999]

Damn, I want my horse to be able to ride off a cliff, it would be so awesome just to see the animations involved.

[tomford16]

You can ride your horse off cliffs. The previewer found this out the hard way.

[Figboy]

thanks for the clarification guys.

lol @ at the reviewer finding out the hard way. it's like a cautionary tale now!

i loved in SOTC that you couldn't fall of edges. there are so many narrow walkways in that game, it would have been maddening to fall to your death, and have to restart at your save point, which was often cross country.

hell, that makes me want to pop in the game and play it again while i wait for my copy of 3D Dot Game Heroes to arrive this weekend, and my copy of RDR to arrive on the 24th.

[danarc]

I heard theres a button you can press to make it jump if you want, but if theres an obstacle it will automatically jump it.

I hadn't heard about some not being able to (like donkeys), which sounds likely

[krisq]

...a proof.

[Mr_Showtime1]

What I've gathered from reading comments over a number of videos and websites, is that the younger generation don't seem to get this game at all - which is no surprise really, because there's no space marines and aliens attacking earth in it. No aliens and no kids to ruin online multiplayer? Sounds like win to me!

[sixaxis]

i really hope you`r right

[PiTCHBLaCK]

Seeing how people disagreed with you you must have hit a nerve LOL, so that means your right and I agree with ya.

[bjornbear]

not that im OLD, but this is quite a unique setting that many kids aren't used to

"NO PLASMA CANNON AND SPACE SUIT? LAME"

[DARK WITNESS]

Great observation there, all the more reason to be happy about getting this and enjoying multiplayer game for adults ! lol

[IrishAssa]

It's not really for adults, altough I don't know what I count as to you's(Younger gen or what?), i'm 18 and this is my most anticipated release in a long time.

[Mr_Showtime1]

I'm 19, but I would classify myself as being part of an older more mature branch of gamers. Younger is that core 13-17 audience, which mainly consists of idiots.

[iceman06]

Basing this off of other media...when is the last time that a true western movie was made. I'm not talking Broke Back...but more like 3:10 to Yuma (2007) which was probably overlooked. The horror genre has it's reboots (for better or worse), action flicks are a dime a dozen, superhero movies are all the rage, but Westerns have become somewhat of a ghost town.

[hassi94]

I'm going on 16 but I think this game will be fantastic. I've been keeping my eye on it knowing I would buy it for more than 6 months now, and even though I'm in the UK and western culture isn't exactly big here, I still think the change to a western setting is extremely interesting. Not everyone in their mid-teens is immature and close-minded.

Back on topic though: I can't wait for this game but unfortunately I'm going to have to. I have my GCSEs in the next few weeks and I'm forcing myself not to buy any games until I've finished. I'll be picking this up June 18th I think, I'm more excited by this game then I have been for any in a long time! I hope it doesn't disappoint. It looks great and Rockstar rarely disappoint!

[nikkisixx2]

i was watching this stream on jtv and the guy got banned by rockstar.

[jmare]

So I assume that that was a pirated copy, right?

The game looks interesting but the video quality was complete garbage. I guess I'll find out on Tuesday.

Silly disagreers, never the courtesy to say why. We really need the who? feature on the main pages.

Below: Can you prove that he got the game early? And doesn't pirating the game allow you to get it early?

[RPcinemas]

no got the game early

[Sir_Ken_Kutaragi__]

'Grand Theft Horse' ;-D

[ape007]

I mean, just a crappy 7 min video, you already giving judgments on games,ok then, sell your console and just watch 7 min crappy vids of every game

this game is gonna be a beast

[Goon 187]

People before saying this game sucks play it first..... h3ll This game is not even out yet, so stop the hatin

[Rainstorm81]

I couldnt agree more...Im seeing alot of hate in here for this game too, the saddest thing is it just may be on the short list of GotY nominees for 2010...what can i say some people just doesnt like good games.

[cpuchess]

Sounds like a lot of little kids whose mommy won't buy it for them...

[raWfodog]

...just not when it first comes out. I'll probably wait a couple of months. I already got too many games that I haven't finished playing yet. Besides, I want to wait to see which version has the less buggy issues. I'm leaning towards the PS3 version because of the free multiplayer (I refuse to pay for LIVE). I'm also waiting for Lens of Truth to do a head2head comparison.

[ape007]

engine always looked better 360, Im expecting xbox version of RDR to look better, run better and have better AA like in gta 4 and MC:LA

I could be wrong,maybe R* got it identical this time but be careful when you chose

[Basil-Rathboner]

The guy playing this didn't make the game look too exciting. Watching a poor quality clip did not help matters either. Also as others have previously mentioned it all looks to play a lot like gta or to a lesser extent Bully.
Watching the clip unfortunately made the gameplay look somewhat familiar. I still have high hopes for this game as i find the western setting a refreshing break from the trenches of WWII or the grey corridors of a spaceship.

[Epicor]

Trailers looked so promising. But this actually looks like GTA4 in western setting. To me GTA4 wasn't the game i hoped it would be. That's why I really need to reconsider buying this game. Renting is not an option as I live in a country where there's no game rental stores. Well maybe in Helsinki there is but at least not in my home town.

And please, don't spam me with comments like "play the game first and pass your judgement after that!". I'm not saying that RDR is not an excellent game. I'm just saying that it's not under my radar anymore after seeing this gameplay footage. And I don't really have an oppurtunity to play the game first and then decide wether im gonna buy it or not as we don't have that game-renting -system.

[Gameplay999]

May I say sir, if you dont buy this game based on a 7min low-quality video you are making a big mistake. Buy first, ask questions later...

[house]

it has elements of gta doesn't mean it will be gta in the west i for one like the fresh air of this game when they say open world they really mean it as the world in the game is really alive

[BubbleSystemSuck]

GTA4 in Horses? That is stupid... why need to say that.. play the fu·$%"ng game and talk!

Is Red Dead Redemption!...

Like Fallout 3 is Oblivion without swords?

LOL, so stupid statment.

Im looking forward for this.. is more ambicious than GTA4

[iJihaD]

Unfortunately the vid has been deleted

[cpuchess]

Yeah that sucks, I wanted to see it!

[AliTheBrit19]

Lol Take 2 has removed it

Rockstar HATE any footage they haven't personally issued going out before a game releases.

[RPcinemas]

our youtube account which had over 3,000 subs just got deleted ! if anyone has a youtube account please resubscribe to our new channel at:

[Bodster]

EDIT - Here it is http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Credits to http://www.youtube.com/clou... for original upload.

[Pennywise]

Bodster, do you like RDR? Did you like GTA4?

[Bodster]

I loved GTA IV, bought it for PS3 and PC, really really great game.

I cant wait for Red Dead Redemption. I woulda got it for PC, but its obviously not coming out for that, so PS3 it is.

The video was great so thats why iv re-uploaded it so that everyone can enjoy it. Hopefully it wont be taken down this time.

Thanks to the original uploader for the video :)

[Alcohog]

Can you upload again? I keep missing it. If you do just post the link, but title it something else so T2 can't find it so easily. :P

Thanks dude!

[Bodster]

I'll upload to megaupload if you want :)

I'll edit this post when its done.

EDIT - http://www.megaupload.com/?...

[Alcohog]

[Crazyglues]

Dude you are the best... OMG!! thanks.. that was awesome... just downloaded from mega..

I was dying to see some gameplay and that video just confirmed everything I wanted to see... Looks Awesome..

I already Pre-ordered and now I can't wait for my copy - game looks Awesome... I'm really pumped now, 4 more days to go..

[I HARLEM I]

what are they so scared of no reviews no gameplay vids......... drum roll please .............................. IF YOU GOT BORED WITH GTA THEN U WILL GET BORED WITH THIS...................... rockstar has spent so much time and money on open world they know the craze is over thus -agent- there just trying to get a few dollars. heres the problem its more fun to drive a car or ride a horse when its built up properly chaseing indians or in a car chase from cops per say not a chore i mean i get tired of driveing my self to the store etc etc the other problem is all the side missions dont get me wrong you want too include 250 missions make them story driven while scattering optional side missions......nutshell built up driveing /horse rideing n great story driven gameplay.......... Iam hyped for agent cause i think it will address these issues while adding ps3 graphics........

[Mucudadada]

There has been an entire gameplay series that has come out from Rockstar. Also, there have been three reviews so far -9.75 another 9 and a perfect 10. SO, I really have no idea what you are talking about.
My main beef with IV was not necessarily that I had to drive to missions, but it was that there was nothing pretty to look at while I was driving. Thus, everything became very boring to me. This time however, the world is beautiful and there is always something to looks at, so I really do think I will enjoy this one a lot more than I enjoyed IV.

[shayol33t]

And its gone, thank god I streamed all of it before it dissapeared :).

Can't wait to buy this for my PS3. Colour me excited.

[Dellis]

This game will be treated like GTAIV, remember the hype for that?....then later on people were trashing it

[sluttytuna]

This had been recorded with a phone. It has been posted and copy so many times now, It just looks like crap!

[PS360PCROCKS]

Hmm I didn't get it before but the possibilities look awesome now! I wanna shoot a guys horse and watch him go flying! Someone oh please tell me I can do this?!

[-EvoAnubis-]
