IGN: Where's the PS3 Red Dead Redemption Review?

Some of you may be waiting with much anticipation for Rockstar's next game, Red Dead Redemption. It comes out this week and if you'd like an early verdict on it, make sure you read our review of the Xbox 360 version. Unfortunately. Rockstar was unable to provide us with a copy of the PS3 edition of Red Dead Redemption early and so we've had to delay that review until we get a chance to take it for a spin.

I wonder why they're making 2 different reviews for the game. Aren't they supposed to use the same review for both versions?

BRG90005123d ago

If they received both versions, and they were reasonably similar, they probably would do just one review. Since they haven't played both versions, I agree the responsible thing to do is wait. If any differences are minor, they will probably just copy and paste the Xbox review into the PS3 channel.

HolyOrangeCows5122d ago

"[Update] We have received the PS3 version. The review will be posted just as soon as we've had a chance to put it through the paces"

Watch them go and give it a .5 point reduction for insignificant differences.

Trey_4_life5122d ago

The reason there is no PS3 version is because they are still playing the extra exclusive PS3 content which seems to add a lot more game play time

hassi945122d ago

What an absolute fanboy. An extra ranch area to give like an extra 10 hours + gameplay time. What a joke.

Karlnag35122d ago

couldn't agree more... I'm a playstation fan and even I think that has to be one of the dumbest things I've read on this site.

I also own a 360.

Blaze9295123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

all the PS3 reviews I seen so far have been positive.

WhittO5123d ago

hmmm weird, maybe they still need to polish off the ps3 version before release and didn't want it reflected on reviews so left it out ? lol

rob60215122d ago

yea i was thinking maybe they're pushing for a release day patch to help get the PS3 version optimized..

kaveti66165122d ago

There's no way to do that now. The game went gold weeks ago. And if IGN has to wait for an update to the PS3 version to download before they play it, you can bet your ass they're going to reflect that in their review.

himdeel5123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

...with respect to this game. Mainly because I already paid off my copy and secondly I made up my mind about purchasing this game after seeing the free roam mode. That mode with 7 other pals sold me on this game and it's reason enough for me to play RDR.

The only thing left to decide upon now is if I'm going to jump right into the free roam mode right away or try the SP campaign first. Outside of those thoughts I DO HOPE to NOT feel in ANY way like I did a few days after my GTA4 purchase.

EDIT: What I really would like is another video review now that I'd read the 360 Review of the game. I don't expect any differences in those write ups.

sixaxis5123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

well, update says: "We have received the PS3 version. The review will be posted just as soon as we've had a chance to put it through the paces."

so we will see what they write about it.

Odin7775122d ago

@ Parapraxis I have to say...I have noticed that pattern recently with reviewers. Hopefully its only a coincidence.

pixelsword5122d ago

From that point on, IGN has lost all credibility for me.

hassi945122d ago (Edited 5122d ago )

divideby05123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

yea....something is wierd...and I am buying the PS3 version...I am playing BC2 on Live, so I wanted to balance the online game playing

dgroundwater5123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

So you are jsutifying your purchase on PS3 by randomly letting us know you are currently playing BC2 on Live? Am I supposed to applaud your honesty or facepalm at N4G?

Anyway I wouldn't get too worked up by the news. This doesn't necessary mean development trouble or anything.

divideby05123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

^ I dont justify what I buy to anyone especially those on the net. Its just a comment I made..dont read into it.
I thought I read the PS3 was the lead platform, but not 100% sure

MGRogue20175123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

... Is it just me or is IGN kinda agreeing that the PS3 version is the best version of the game with this article?? :D

Rowsdower5123d ago

the way the article fails to imply anything of that sort leads me to the same conclusion.

;P

aaronisbla5122d ago

first i was thinkin WTF is rowsdower talkin about then i read the rest of ur comment, bubbles

BRG90005123d ago

It's just you. IGN is explicitly saying they haven't played the PS3 version. At least not enough to make that judgement.

rob60215122d ago

How big is the hideout?? is it like a whole other town or what..? If it's a little shack then who knows which is better.

CR-Y-SIS5123d ago

Maybe MS ninjas got to the delivery man?

dc15123d ago (Edited 5123d ago )

Funny and out of order... all at the same time! Take a +plus Bub!

AKS5123d ago

Of the reviews of the PS3 version I've seen, all have been positive. The secrecy about the PS3 version is quite odd. No footage, few reviews, ect.

Christopher5122d ago

There's nothing odd here. In the U.S. media, it's typically the 360 version that is completely reviewed while the PS3, if at all played, is only done a bit to determine any peculiar differences.

Rockstar Might Be Preparing For Red Dead Redemption 1 Release On PC

Rockstar Games may be preparing to release its open world action adventure game, Red Dead Redemption 1, on PC.

Goodguy0112d ago

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

Snookies1211d ago (Edited 11d 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.

XiNatsuDragnel12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

It'll be great if true

LucasRuinedChildhood12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

Hopefully 60fps on consoles for RDR2 is next then.

LucasRuinedChildhood12d ago (Edited 12d 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.

purple10111d ago (Edited 11d 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!

DaReapa12d 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.

15 PS3 Games That Would Absolutely Shine as PS5 Remakes

You left out The Darkness games bring those back

fan_of_gaming44d 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-Long44d 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_gaming44d ago

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

purple10144d 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

Skuletor44d 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.

CrimsonWing6944d 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_gaming44d 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.

Inverno44d 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_gaming44d ago

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