Red Dead Redemption Reviews
The silver lining here is that now the game is finally freed from the cage of old hardware. And that's a great thing.

Although the sluggish gameplay and unresponsive action have always been open to question, with the right mindset, it’s possible to adapt to its crap-factor. It’s worth acclimating to them because Red Dead Redemption is more than the sum of its parts.
Despite its gameplay flaws, Red Dead Redemption is a classic on seventh gen consoles. Its well-crafted characters and script are among the era's best. It's a technological marvel with meticulous attention to detail. While the gameplay may require adaptation on the player's part, it's worth it because Red Dead Redemption's overall experience is greater than the sum of its individual parts.
If you want to experience Red Dead Redemption, I can recommend the Nintendo Switch version of the game. Although I think that its price is high compared to the improvements it offers, and that a price like $ 30 would be more affordable, it does not regret playing you with its portable gaming experience and problem-free port. If you want to play in front of the TV with better graphics Via Xbox, with high resolution and smoother performance thanks to backward compatibility, you can play the game for much cheaper.

Red Dead Redemption is hailed as one of the best games ever made, as is its sequel, and this is a strong reminder as to why. It's aged brilliantly and is easily a game I would suggest everyone needs to play. Sadly, the lack of multiplayer and the higher price tag do seem to be sticking points for some. But with the sheer amount of content and quality, it still offers fair value for an unmissable gaming experience.
Red Dead Redemption PS4 belongs to the category of games that make you wonder, how to judge a legend of that time, knowing the technological data of the modern era

Red Dead Redemption on Switch is a mostly fine port of a great game. If you’ve been dying to replay it or haven’t checked it out before, you should absolutely do so, but those who have already fully explored the old west won’t find anything new here or much reason to buy it again outside of the handheld factor. For some, though, that will be all the incentive they need.
Red Dead Redemption was a great game when it came out in 2010, and this proves it’s still a great game in 2023. While some classics from previous generations feel dated, that’s certainly not the case here – and if you missed it (or weren’t around for it) thirteen years ago, now’s the time to finally play it. And if you did play it? Maybe it’s time to play it again.
'Red Dead Redemption' is a game that will stand the test of time no matter what...The West will always hold a special place in my heart and life.
While Red Dead Redemption is a spectacular masterpiece on its own, its PlayStation 4 port hardly brings anything new to the table with a steep price tag of its own. While it’s a huge missed opportunity after a decade-long wait, it’s nice that more modern systems besides Xbox consoles can finally play this piece of art. As for the recommendation, you should pick this up while it is on sale or wait for the possible PC and PS5 ports that may hit the stores next year.
Step into the well worn boots of John Marsten and experience the Wild West in all its Glory!
Red Dead Redemption has a memorable story, iconic characters and a gameplay that left a mark for a golden age of action adventures and for Rockstar, who managed to spread their wings beyond the shadow of Grand Theft Auto. Its influence lasts to these days, as I am here, 13 years later, talking about its Switch port; thus, if you have any reservation about experiencing this modern classic, I recommend at least giving it a chance. Who knows if you won't get so excited that you will also jump into Red Dead Redemption 2 (if you haven't yet)?

If you have played the game back in 2010 with fond memories of it and you have 50 bucks to waste, then absolutely go for it as the game is as good as you remember it. But if you are on a budget, there are newer and better games you can spend your hard earned cash.
Red Dead Redemption is an excellent game in a bit of a lazy repackaging. If you haven't played it yet, go right ahead, but otherwise, there's not much for you here.

Although not the version expected by many players, Red Dead Redemption shows strength as one of the best games of all time. The 2023 version is the most stable option, but it could be much better.

Even though I looked forward to playing Red Dead Redemption after playing, I think it would have been better off with a remaster. Maybe it’s because of the vast improvements I enjoyed in Red Dead Redemption 2, but I didn’t find this as enjoyable as I did back on PS3.
Red Dead Redemption impresses thirteen years on by still offering great storytelling, fun missions and a gripping, cinematic adventure from start to finish. Double Eleven have worked magic and provided a practically perfect port on Nintendo Switch that’s, for the most part, a like-for-like recreation, and in some cases better than ever. Stripped out multiplayer, a lack of Switch specific features and a higher than expected price point may deter some players, but with a stable frame rate and stunning, vivid visuals, the opportunity to play as John Marston anywhere and everywhere makes for a very tempting proposition.
Rockstar's port of Red Dead Redemption on the Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch provides an opportunity for both newcomers and fans alike to experience one of gaming's most memorable adventures once again. While there are some improvements to the visuals and performance, remnants of the game's age still bleed through. If you can look past the outrageous price tag and some cut content, then your journey back to the Wild West is definitely one worth taking.
Red Dead Redemption on the Switch is the exact same Western epic you know and love. That's both its greatest strength and its greatest weakness.
This game has aged a lot. Although I did have fun with Red Dead Redemption, I can’t help but think this is just a bit below the average of what we expect from a 2023 title being released at a ludicrously premium price. Having this on-the-go, whilst a novel concept, is a bit detrimental to its epic, movie-like plot and structure. This benefits from being played on a bigger screen, and by doing so, it looks a bit worse. Not to mention the fact its controls and physics are simply too clunky, even for Xbox 360 standards.
