In Grand Theft Auto , one could catapult themselves through a car windshield if they crashed in the right way, serving as a public service announcement on the importance of seat belts.

Most games maintain a steady stream of information that floods the screen. Little markers delineating new destinations. A compass to coordinate movement with your position on the map. Reminders for the quest that you're undertaking. Indicators of health, stamina, or any other status that might be necessary. Everything is designed to assist the player and ensure that you're not lacking context. Red Dead Redemption 2 throws that out the window. You're going to die. You're going to get lost. That's part of being in the Wild West. Get used to it. And that perilous freedom means so much in an open-world g

Red Dead Redemption 2 raised the bar for storytelling in big budget, AAA titles. Arthur Morgan's journey is unlike anything gaming has ever attempted before. The narrative is beautifully somber and emotionally impactful. The game play usually complements this vibe, with the shooting feeling heavy and the long horse rides giving players time to mull over the character's situation.

This one would be impressive if it wasn't done by accident. Not only can players shoot the hats off enemies, exposing their foreheads to the sun or revealing a bald spot, but enemies can return the favor and shoot Arthur's hat to the wind. You can do a lot of things to people, but tampering with their headwear is a whole other level of insult. Fortunately, Arthur has magic hat regenerating powers, but the NPCs he shoots down don't have the same abil


Oh Dutch. As good of a character as Dutch is, he’s extremely frustrating to deal with. Throughout the many camps the Van Der Linde gang ends up at, Dutch constantly has to let everyone know they need to pay their fair share. Okay, but what about you Dutch? We never once see Dutch putting money into the camp. Now you could argue that it’s because we are never at the camp, but this is actually confirmed at the end of the Game Videos. We find out that Dutch has been secretly hoarding away his money. This won’t be the only meme that points out our irritation with Dutch. There’s more to c


**** A horse's worst enemy in Red Dead Redemption 2 ; the dreaded rock. You'll be galloping away at full speed, feeling invincible as you make through beautiful landscapes. Then out of nowhere, your horse trips and falls, sending you flying and landing hard on the ground. You'd think there was something you would've seen a mile away. You are wrong because it was just one little measly rock that nearly killed you and your horse. You might as well add rocks to the list of hardest boss fights in the Red Dead ser

Strauss' father, in dyer times, had to trade his 9-year-old daughter in exchange for food for the rest of his family. This broke the hearts of both Strauss, his mother, and his brother. As cruel as it was, it might have been their only option to survive the cruelness of Winter in Eur

The main storyline could be complete and you could have wandered about the wilderness for hours, but you're sure to find something you previously missed.
