FebruaryIt's Time for a Red Dead Redemption Sequel
As if this already sweet piece of video game pie couldn't possibly get any better, Rockstar turns around and announces its first DLC. Usually, announcements like these piss me off to the core, especially when publishers are trying to hit gamers up for more bread right after they spent 60 bucks on the title alone. However, Rockstar is about to hook us all up with Co-op goodness available for download on the Xbox 360 and PS3 in June at the same time for the price of free. "Outlaws to the End" is the name of the expansion and it allows for 2-4 players to join up online and take on 6 additional missions in the game. Check out some descriptions as well as new screens from some of the missions be
Not in a bad way though. Take the gameplay and strategy of Grand Theft Auto and add the expansive land of the old west and you've got yourself Red Dead Redemption. In this game you play the role of John Marston, a former outlaw hunting down his old gang in order to be granted amnesty. Because it's set an entirely different century from Grand Theft Auto, this game was modified to compensate for the lack of modern technology. Law enforcement has no way of pursuing you unless a crime was witnessed by someone. The scenery and sound are all deemed high quality and a natural fit to the gameplay. There's even a zombie expansion, which of course isn't natural, but still flows with this game. Red Dead Redemption has been given near perfect scores and sold over 13 million copies worldwide. It also won several Game of the Year awards from numerous publications.
A man of many talents, Walter Day was born to be part of the entertainment industry. He is a game designer and historian, but is better known for creating Twin Galaxies-- the world leader in video game records. After reading an article on games in 1982, Walter was then inspired to form a date base of the world's leading arcade scores. This led him to becoming an official referee and scorekeeper for video games. He has appeared in documentaries and at various gaming competitions. Walter has contributed to the Guinness Book of World Records, helped with the founding of the International Video Game Hall of Fame and attended a special video game exhibition at the Smithsonian art museum. Walter has since moved on to focus on his music career but he still remains an iconic member of the industry.
Looks could kill: The High Roller Double-Action Revolver features a polished steel body with unique period-inspired, beautifully detailed engraving work. The deadly, quick draw revolver comes complete with unique playing card and skull elements carved into the grip. Its superior, quick rate of fire over all other revolvers makes it a great choice for mounted combat.
Western games are few and far between in the the realm of video games, but Rockstar managed to captured every little detail to give the game that classic old west aesthetic. From the large desolate landscapes filled with cacti to the small towns that included saloons, hotels and churches, Red Dead Redemption had a way of honing in every aspect of the early 1900s. Even the designs of the technology was spot on. Seeing the use of automobiles, machine guns and modern trains seemed to heightened every possible feature the game had to offer. It's why the game still holds up and looks beautiful to this day.
Featuring a wool-lined, long coat with custom, hand-tooled leather accents, a leather vest with ornate pattern details, stand wing-tip collar with black neckerchief, and custom ornate buckle with matching boot tips, the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit pays homage to the "boss" of the Northern States, its real-world inspiration.
Red Dead Online will actually come in November and PS4 owners will get access to the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit, the Red Chestnut Arabian Horse, the Alligator Skin Ranch Cutter Saddle, and the High Roller Double-Action Revolver.
