I don't know if it's on purpose or a happy accident, but the horse skinning skip is back. In the original Red Dead Redemptio n with our boy John Marston, there was a simple trick. The animation for skinning an animal was actually shorter back then but people were still impati

Dutch goes rogue and murders Leviticus Cornwall. In the process, he also incites a war between the surrounding Native American tribe and the United States Army in order to steal some valuable bonds, resulting in a bloody massacre with casualties on both sides. Dutch and Morgan find the bonds, but get ambushed as they escape. Dutch abandons Morgan, who is eventually caught and nearly killed, before being rescued. Morgan finally breaks his allegiance with Dutch when he refuses to rescue Marston’s girlfriend, Abigail, who gets kidnapped by Agent Mil

Except the very premise of this opening makes absolutely no sense. Dialogue strongly suggests that the main characters are fleeing the snowstorm, but their trajectory on the mountain has them going up it rather than down. Naturally, going up a mountain during a snowstorm will only result in heavier winds. What was Dutch think

Realism in Red Dead Redemption 2 is a funny thing. The game seems to strictly adhere to it in parts, such as only being able to have two guns at arm's reach when off your horse. Yet at other times, it seems to flip completely, www.rdradventure.Com and go a bit bananas in the traditional GTA sense, with your horse able to carry as much weaponry as Fort Knox during a red alert. Regardless, I think they've probably got the balance about right, even if it does feel a little odd at times. They've made a good number of concessions to balance fun with realism. The focus is on having fun, and that's something that's definitely being achie

There's a certain area of the Bayou that gets a bit more, well, odd. It has some NPCs that seem to only speak nonsense, and overall it's the very definition of a "backwater" town. But, the biggest attraction in this area is one fine banjo pla

They seem to really care for each other as they share their home cooked meal with you. Only after passing out and waking up in a mass grave do we find out that they're not actually a couple, but brother and sister. Oh, and they stole all your c

God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 will be competing in the Best Game Direction, Best Narrative, Best Art Direction, Best Score/Music, Best Audio Design, Best Action/Adventure, and the Game of the Year awa

While you can unlock fast travel fairly early on by upgrading your tent, the game does have a pseudo-fast travel system built in. If you set a custom waypoint on your map, switch to cinematic view, and then set your horse running by holding down X/A, the horse will make its way to the waypoint. You don't need to even hold the button down. You can go and make a cup of tea/coffee if you like, and when you come back, your horse should be at the destinat

God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 will also be competing through proxies in the Best Performance category, with Christopher Judge as Kratos and Roger Clark as Arthur Morgan representing their respective ga

Kratos might be skilled at fighting gods and monsters, but he will be facing an entirely new kind of opponent at the 2018 Game Awards, as God of War is facing off against Red Dead Redemption 2 in every category that they are nominated

If you've been looking forward to unlocking the Repeating Shotgun in hopes that it's something of an AA12, I'm sorry to disappoint. The Repeating Shotgun in Red Dead Redemption 2 is somewhat disappointing, particularly when compared to the pump-action and semi-auto. It does the same amount of damage as the pump-action, but it lacks its accuracy. Despite being a repeater, it also has a slower rate of fire than the semi-auto. Is it worth its $185 price? Absolutely not, sa

But once you do, strut on up to the mask on the back wall, and pull it down. Arthur'll be sporting a fancy little cat skull now. Granted, it clips through here and thee, but still a great hidden acces

Let’s actually dig a bit deeper into this continuity error. In the first gang, John’s biggest complaint about the gang was that they were no a family. Every piece of affection was superficial. The end of the second game tries to imply this was indeed the case all along by having most characters abandon Dutch, bu

Say you're robbing a stagecoach or a train, one thing you really don't want to happen is for you to lose your horse. Trying to make a quick getaway on foot is nigh-on impossible, and can be extraordinarily fatal if you're being pursued by enough lawmen to arrest a whole county. There's an easy solution: just hold up on the D-pad, and your horse will follow you along as you rob and slaughter your way about. Then, when you've got your cash, get off, jump on your horse, and hightail it into the sun

This is the big category and the line-up is strong this year. God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 seem like the most obvious choices, but Marvel’s Spider-Man might also swoop in for a surprise vict
