I didn’t buy this until it was a far more reasonable 25 as understood it was just a port of the PS3 game, but it is more than that and on PS5 is has 60fps that looks really good and like a PS4 game!
It also includes the DLC and is everything the PS3 game was with some improvements.
Having played the original back in the day before the RDR2 hype I wanted to play again too see if it was as good as I remembered and it is! The remake is beautiful and plays great at 60fps. Don’t expect next gen graphics as it’s still based on an old version but the voice acting is exceptional. If you’ve only played the sequel then give this a try. You won’t be disappointed!
I wish it was the remake we were hoping for, but still, I can’t count the hours I spent on the Xbox 360 playing this all those years ago and it does at least have full HD 1080p graphics, which hold up surprisingly well on my PS4. Great value too. Wonderful game, if you’ve not played it, please do give it a go, the story is utterly fantastic as is the open world created by RockStar back in 2013.
One of my all time favourite games. And now on ps4. Feels a bit bit old especially after playing rdr2. But still a good blast and undead nightmare is fun.
I played this on the PS3 years back and loved it. Recently got it for my PS5. It plays and looks amazing for an old game. It’s locked at 60 frames which makes the gameplay even better. The graphics have improved also. I highly recommend it to all players. It plays decent on the PS4 but no 60 frames unfortunately but I’d still recommend it for PS4 users.
I am really impressed with the graphics of this game on the PlayStation 5. It runs very smoothly on 60fps. I am really pleased that this game can now be played on next gen consoles. The game case cover has a nice metallic shine to it, which is a nice touch. I would recommend this game, especially to PS5 owners.
This is a great game. It laid the foundation for one of the greatest games of all time, RD2.
However, the mission that requires breaking in three horses towards the end of the game is such a disappointment on two levels. It’s unreasonably difficult, relative to its importance. It also kills the pace of the plot. Having won an epic battle in the mountains John returns home to round up cows, kill a few animals and break horses. It’s kind of boring and anti-climatic, when and where we encounter it. A better option would have been to place these missions at the start, so we can learn these basics. It would only require a minor plot change. It would also have ensured the game’s plot continued at pace right up to the end.
Many have been upset that this was simply a HD PS4 version and not a compete remaster, however I played RDR on my PS3 during Nov/Dec last year (2022) before playing RDR2 through Jan-May (2023). Though this might not be a remaster, it’s still so much better than the PS3 version. I’m playing it on PS5 at 60FPS and it’s incredible. I’m so glad I didn’t listen to all the stupid complaints.
I fell in love with RD 1st time around (ps3)
I’ve played it start to finish about 20 times. Unfortunately when ps4 came out backwards compatibility didn’t work. But now ps5 does & had to buy it again.
I’ve aways told friends (not gamers) the story of John Marsden. Why this isn’t a film I don’t know.
I’ve not long left on this earth but I would love to know the mystery of the top hat stranger in the game. If you know you know.
