Rockstar is known for making fantastic open-world games, such as Bully and the highly controversial Grand Theft Auto series

My husband describes this game as being a western era version of the Grand Theft Auto game.

It would be easy to dimiss "Red Dead Redemption" as "Grand Theft Auto" with horses and ten gallon hats.

A game that I had written off as Grand Theft Horse prior to release

Now many people compare this game to Grand Theft Auto

If you were a fan of Grand Theft Auto 4, then you will surely enjoy RDR

Western + grand theft auto feel= video gaming heaven.

First of all, I would like to say that I am not a big Grand Theft Auto 4 fan, nor am I a Rockstar fanboy.

If you enjoy the game play of Grand Theft Auto, you'll enjoy Red Dead Redemption...all the while sweetened with good story, interesting characters and a beautiful setting

If you like games like Grand Theft Auto then this game is for you

"Grand Theft Auto IV : Redemption" where Niko Bellic time travels to western times

Detractors called it "Grand Theft Auto on Horses" and it took half a dozen years to bring to life, but Rockstar Games succeeded at creating the most amazing, the most realistic open world adventure ever

And this is coming from a person who HATES GRAND THEFT AUTO, and the BULLY series...

Fun, fun game, but shorter then the typical Rockstar, "Grand Theft Auto" game

Grand Theft Auto in the wild west

The controls take a few minutes to get used to, especially on horseback, but once you are used to it, and comfortable with it you will love it!Some reviewers will say "This game is basically grand theft auto IV, but set in the wild west."

I love Red Dead Redemption much much more than grand theft auto!I am looking forward to future downloadable content

Rockstar finally took a break from their classic IP, Grand Theft Auto, to build a Western game like no other

Much more sophisticated and more fun than Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto.

Now, they've released Red Dead Redemption, which has been called things like Grand Theft Stagecoach or Grand Theft Auto with horses

Or you can play the game as a roaming ruthless outlaw, with each version having its own consequences (it's made by the same company that did Grand Theft Auto)

This time, Rockstar has played to their own strengths, introducing the world of cowboys and outlaws to the acclaimed gameplay found in their Grand Theft Auto series

than I did grand theft auto 4

Coming from Rocksat and using a similar formula, I expected this game to be very much like Grand Theft Auto

great game ... the grand theft auto of the wild west

I have played Grand Theft Auto games before but didn't really get into them

The Game follows the same mission structure and gameplay as The Grand Theft Auto games that came before it

Rockstar took the good from its Grand Theft Auto series & nearly perfected it.

Pretty much Grand Theft Horse to quote Zero Punctuation's Yahtzee - but without the whiny cousin BS from GTA 4

At first I didn't think I would like the game as I personally do not care for the Grand Theft Auto series

Alot of people make comparisons of this game with Grand Theft Auto

I never had an interest in sandbox games, and while I was aware of Grand Theft Auto (how could you NOT be?), for some reason the hype leading up to Red Dead Redemption's release caught my attention.

No, Red Dead Redemption is no mere "Grand Theft Horse"

Although this game plays similarly to Grand Theft Auto IV, it's unfair to compare the two

If Fallout 3 was "Oblivion with guns", it wouldn't be too crazy to say Red Dead Redemption is "Grand Theft Auto in the Old West" or "Grand Theft Horse"

I love Grand Theft Auto games but have criticized the over the top characters and situations

Despite the popularity of the Grand Theft Auto series, I always avoided those games because I found that getting my kicks by doing drive-bys was a little too sole-less, even by video game standards

The graphics were better looking than any Grand Theft Auto game I have ever played and the music just captured that western feel so well

Grand Theft Horse

The "Grand Theft Auto" series has worn out it's welcome with me

It's great to see Rockstar expand the Grand Theft Auto formula into other, more daring locales, and re-imagining the exceptionally lackluster Red Dead Revolver seems to have paid off rather well for them in the end.

Grand Theft Auto on horses?

I really have a hard time figuring out what my basic feelings are for this game, not because of Grand Theft Auto IV of which I am completely not a fan, but rather this is one of

The format of the game ought to be familiar to anyone who is a fan of Grand Theft Auto (GTA)

Enter Grand Theft Auto

If you like rockstar or even GTA4 (even though its different, in a good way, this game deserves better than the "Grand Theft Horse" nickname it got), get this game.

i felt that the facial motion capture and animation was somewhat improved over "grand theft auto 4", but as i got into the game i began to think not

Just like Grand Theft Auto but western style with great storyline and game play that changes your on the western era with it shoot and act questions later.

This is not meant to be Grand Theft Auto IV with more refined parts, to the "most helpful" negative review guy

When playing this game, I have to say I really felt as through I was playing Grand Theft Auto with horses instead of cars

such a great game,i wish they would make another just like it,grand theft auto western style,fantastic,n the scenery was gorgeous

One of the funnest games I've ever played and would recommend trying it if your into games like grand theft auto etc

Red dead redemption is nothing like Grand theft auto

The open world MP game has always been something I wanted to see more of, and I'm sure once this game gets into more peoples hands its gonna be a real treat for the gaming world.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------I've been a fan of the Grand Theft Auto series since it had a top down view, so when this was announced by Rockstar I was pretty interested

I appreciated the "Grand Theft Auto" game experiences and also liked "Bully," but never finished any of these games (couldn't quite relate to the characters or the world), so I bought Red Dead with a bit of skepticism.

For those unfamiliar with the Grand Theft Auto/Rock Star game expect a sand box world divided into three geographically distinct areas

I notice some saying this is just Grand Theft Auto with horses; this is a Rockstar game, so yes, the formatting is very similar

If you do many bad things than your honor will lower giving out Grand Theft Auto chases for you

Let me start by saying that while I appreciate the open world style and innovative game play of the Grand Theft Auto games, I was never a huge fan of the series

Otherwise:It always seemed to me that Grand Theft Auto was a bit over-the-top.

Quite simply, if you enjoy sandbox Grand Theft Auto-type games, you will absolutely LOVE this game

Having never played a Grand Theft Auto

The game world is about twice the size of Grand Theft Auto 4 (and it even comes close to rivaling games like Fallout

It's grand theft auto like, but so much more different and for the better

Rockstar once again produces a game of mass quality along the lines of their Grand Theft Auto games

A great amount of guns of different types - twice as many as what is found in Grand Theft Auto 4.- like the first title this one has great sound track too that mixes music of the era during the clam points of the game and more modern cinematic "chase" type of music during the action and shoot outs points of the game

This game is a step in the right direction from the brilliant minds that brought us Grand Theft Auto, Bully, Midnight Club, The Warriors, Max Payne, and other envelope pushing titles

I would have skipped the same old grand theft auto style and went for a more immersive open-world experience

You eventually build up to doing more difficult missions, much in vein of the Grand Theft Auto style

I've played Grand Theft Auto, Saints Row and many more of these types of games

Maybe people want to like the game because it seems like a such a cool idea and it shares some DNA with Grand Theft Auto.

Grand Theft Auto-

If you're a fan of the Grand Theft Auto games then you'll like Red Dead Redemption because it's very similar

The writing is quite good in the game, as in the previous Grand Theft Auto IV, so I would think they can write interesting characters without resorting to making them the extreme ends of the spectrum

Yes, you heard right- out and out heroics in a title from the house that Grand Theft Auto built.

I have never played other Rockstar titles (i.e., Grand Theft Auto series), though after playing this, I am looking to acquire more of their titles
