Red Dead Redemption was a landmark moment in gaming history. It helped prove that games can be grown up. They can be art. And they can move us in the same way that any film ever has. (Red Dead Redemption Review)

Replaying Red Dead Redemption today is honestly astounding as it still holds up extremely well even 13 years later. Along with a deeply personal narrative that held up a mirror up to our own society, it included a stunning open world packed with detail throughout. Quite frankly in 2010, it was rare for a mainstream game to tackle big issues like Red Dead did.

Throughout this review we'll look at why Red Dead Redemption was a landmark moment in gaming, focussing on the narrative, open world, presentation and more. I'll talk about everything I loved about the game, including missions and RPG mechanics, and a few areas I think it could be improved.
