Red Dead Redemption

Well what can I say? I absolutely love this Videogame. The ability to ride around the Environment on a
Horse, shoot & capture your Foes, as well as collecting Items such as Flowers, & Animal Skin was
something I could never ever had imagined doing many years ago, but this amazing Game developing
Company Rockstar (whom many of you would be familiar with that developed the Grand Theft Auto
Games) developed, studied, & delivered an amazing Action/Adventure Game.
    Many years ago as a little Tyke, I would imitate the Cowboys & Indians that I would see on TV, & bring out my own Western Toy Set to play along the action. The thought of bringing Westerns to Games was something I could never had imagined, but I was 8, so I really did not know any better.
Here is the Storymode. You are controlling a renegade outlaw Cowboy called John Marston. He
is determined to hunt down, and find his former Gang Members whom he had once rolled with. Together,
they robed innocent Civillians, & even killed them. They had taken his Wife, & Son hostage, in exchange for
his service as a Bounty Hunter, & he must find them, & bring them to justice. From the start, you get to
realise that while he may have changed his outlook on life prior to starting a Family, John Marston is his own
Man, & will surely not let anyone take him for a pushover. Nevertherless, he knows where to draw the line
when it comes to respecting the views of Strangers he comes in contact with, a trait that I admire a lot.
    You are set to use all kins of Weapons, & as you progress doing minimal to crucial tasks, not only does
your reputation increase, but so do your skills along with your Weapon selections. The rewards are
beneficial, because with a higher reputation more Peope in other Counties will be willing to assist you, your
ability to aim with Guns, & Rope will improve when catching either an Animal, or a Person, & you will have
more Weapons for tougher missions you will inevitably take part in. There are many side tasks that you can
get involved with, such as saving an innocent bystander that is under attack by People, & even Wild Animals.
You can even pause the Story, & the Pre-rendered Clips will pause for as long as you like. There is a Slow
Motion ability, which when you press on the R3 Analog Stick, the screen turns Yellow, & it gives the Gamer
a chance to aim at the target that is otherwise too fast to take out. That feature impressed me a lot.
    I will say play the Game if you love Action/Adventure Games, but that is your call. A Family Friend's Kid
recommended it to me, & I have not regretted it ever since. A 9/10!
