One thing the press release doesn’t mention is multiplayer. The console game allowed up to 16 barking buckeroos to roam a version of the single player world. I remember having great fun with a preview build on Xbox 360, engaging in Mexican stand-offs and getting knocked off my horse. But what I mostly recall, and cherish, about Red Dead Redemption is how wonderfully buggy it was at launch. Here’s another, funnier video.
That’s all there is to say, at this point. I’m not sure I’m desperate to play the original RDR again, withRed Dead Redemption 2already available on PC, but if you’re an avid Rockstar-gazer, it’s something to fill the void between now and the release ofGTA 6.
