NowGamer: Red Dead Redemption PS3 Review

It’s a sad state of affairs when, with a blank page and a head full of Wild West memoirs, you’re suddenly affronted by the notion that nothing you can write can do justice to that which you’re attempting to describe. Not because we ourselves lack the prosaic cock and balls to meet the graphical poetry of Red Dead Redemption head on with like-for-like lyrical smugness. More that, while Red Dead carries it off effortlessly, we, mere humble game hacks, come off sounding like we’re trying too hard.

Never would have expected that!.....haha!.....The wait is painful.

II Necroplasm II5128d ago

I'm about to take some sleeping pills, so the next thing I know, I'm playing this game.

knight6265128d ago

Great game so far cant stop playing it i just need to unlock all 13 costumes and have fun with the wild west everyone will love this game

kvg885128d ago

But seriously, are we going to argue 1/10th of a mark?

The games awesome, can't wait to get it!

"The PS3 version has to remain the same as that on graphically inferior hardware (360). Put that right out of your mind, though. Because even though the 360 version is perhaps more impressive for having overcome greater limitations, the two are identical, and you can rest assured, that even by the higher graphical standards of a PS3 owner, this game is still going to melt your face off."

Well, so both the versions seem equal and none have said either is lacking... So good news for all.

xdye0175128d ago

What's weird is the ps3 review takes advantage in the graphics and sound while the 360 review in gameplay and longetivity. Its like the reviewer is talking about 2 completely different games :S. I thought they both have the same content.....

kvg885128d ago

That's really weird - is it even the same reviewer? Because gameplay wise, it should obviously be the same, if not tipped in favour of the PS3 because of exclusive content.

mrmikew20185128d ago

It's two different reviewers bro.

Elimin85128d ago

He's saying that while the PS3 version takes advantage in the graphics and sound department the 360 does not but still thrives in gameplay and longevity. Meaning They are equal except the PS3 does Graphics and sound better. be it fully or slightly better...

My 2Cents...

Ah man.. I think the PS3 version is going to win in the graphics department.. Partly because most PS3 games tend to have vSync enabled & in that one PS3 gameplay video of the game I saw.. The framerate looked really smooth, Like 40fps smooth. :)

PS3 version for me! :D

kvg885128d ago

that's not what the score implies. They gave 360 version 9.4.

mrmikew20185128d ago

It's two different reviewers bro.

AKS5128d ago

That part of the review wasn't necessary and badly damages the credibility of the review and even the entire website.

mrmikew20185128d ago

You're right bro, but if that's the case IGN should be on its last leg.

AKS5128d ago

I've already made a comment about ign in another thread.

I just want 4k/1440p and 60fps support. And with little glitches too ofc.

Snookies1217d ago (Edited 17d ago )

This is about the PC version of RDR 1. The PC version of RDR 2 doesn't have a frame rate cap. Though I do agree, it is mind boggling that Rockstar still hasn't released a patch for consoles.

XiNatsuDragnel18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

It'll be great if true

LucasRuinedChildhood17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Hopefully 60fps on consoles for RDR2 is next then.

LucasRuinedChildhood17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Honestly, a PS5 Pro isn't even needed for 60fps in this case. But if they wanted to use it show a game running maxed out at a high resolution at 60fps, I wouldn't complain. Just give us 60fps. lol

I think the Series X might have an issue running the One X version at a locked 60fps as that version was a full native 4K but they could just lower the resolution a bit.

purple10117d ago (Edited 17d ago )

I wish to play both stellar blade, and rdr2, on the pro, maxed out like an expensive pc,

would be good, especially for the price, even if thats £499/ £549

last I checked, a rtx 4070super was £580 for just the card!

DaReapa17d ago

There aren't many games I'd double dip for, but having originally gotten this for PS3, I would happily get this if true.

You left out The Darkness games bring those back

fan_of_gaming50d ago

The head of Nightdive Studios has posted that The Darkness is on their list of games they want to do, so hopefully something comes from that

Yi-Long50d ago

Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.

Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.

A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.

Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.

fan_of_gaming50d ago

Good suggestions, I'd be in for
LittleBigPlanet
LittleBigPlanet 2
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Motorstorm: RC

purple10150d ago

God damn I love motorstorm so much

At the time I had a low-mid range sony 40” tv, The latency to the controller was waaaay too high, would to play a modern version

In saying that later I got a 3d lg tv and playing the 3d motorstorm in my bedroom with the environment crumbling around the track, was something special, specially compared to what others were playing at the time, will always remember that

Skuletor50d ago

Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.

CrimsonWing6950d ago

I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.

Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.

fan_of_gaming50d ago

Yeah for sure, sequels would be ideal. But in the current market environment where many big publishers are risk-averse, I'd rather get a remaster or remake that a developer can do on a budget that will be approved, rather than nothing for an IP.

Inverno50d ago

I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.

fan_of_gaming50d ago

Yeah I'd be fine with remasters of PS3 games too, they don't have to be remakes.
