Red Dead Redemption Review: I Reckon Its Okay

Posted on 20 June 2010

Grand Theft Auto and I have a love-hate relationship. For nearly every one of their games, I can point out genre-defining features, and still find others that are nearly game breaking. Red Dead Redemption, while not bearing the GTA badge, is still so similar in formula to a Grand Theft Auto game that I’ll treat it as such in this review. I’ll break my review down by the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of RDR–I know I know, couldn’t help myself. But lets be honest– this is probably the most apt situation to use such an expression, so let’s get started! Read the full story

SSX preorder: Complete. 07:39:06 PM February 03, 2012 from HootSuite

Is it weird that listening to the Empire Strikes Back soundtrack reminds me more of the n64 title Shadows of the Empire than the movie? 05:56:27 PM January 24, 2012 from HootSuite

Our guild fondly refers to the "Kaon Under Siege" flashpoint as "Left 4 Dead". #SWTOR #L4D 06:25:33 PM January 23, 2012 from HootSuite

Thinking a full replay of Mass Effect 1 and 2 is in order before March. BONUS: Got these for Xmas. Oh Keelah! http://t.co/CfQCXhNV 06:26:09 PM December 27, 2011 from HootSuite

@justinmcelroy @thegoogly It does. Even with a quick download rate (I average 2mb/s) still meant the greater part of a day to download. #TOR 11:51:38 PM December 22, 2011 from HootSuitein reply to JustinMcElroy

#SWTOR Trooper storyline has been fantastic so far. Now I want to replay it with the evil dialogue choices & see how it plays out. 06:40:34 PM December 22, 2011 from HootSuite

RT @benkuchera: The one thing that is always impressive to me is how thoroughly Sony owns CES. They really know how to work that show. 07:00:49 PM December 21, 2011 from HootSuite

#SWTOR queues on our server hit upwards of 90 minutes at peak hours. They'll die down eventually, but was anyone expecting otherwise? 05:54:10 PM December 21, 2011 from HootSuite

@aeazel Its frustrating, certainly, but its that blistering challenge that appeals to players, and the reward when you manage to beat it. 05:40:32 PM December 21, 2011 from HootSuitein reply to aeazel

I know this is the unpopular opinion, but I love the space combat in #SWTOR. It's just like Star Fox. #GetTheseGuysOffMeFox 05:35:55 PM December 21, 2011 from HootSuite
