IGN: Where's the PS3 Red Dead Redemption Review?

Some of you may be waiting with much anticipation for Rockstar's next game, Red Dead Redemption. It comes out this week and if you'd like an early verdict on it, make sure you read our review of the Xbox 360 version. Unfortunately. Rockstar was unable to provide us with a copy of the PS3 edition of Red Dead Redemption early and so we've had to delay that review until we get a chance to take it for a spin.

wtf, "Rockstar was unable to provide us with a copy of the PS3 edition of Red Dead Redemption " thats more than strange!

I wonder why they're making 2 different reviews for the game. Aren't they supposed to use the same review for both versions?

BRG90005152d ago

If they received both versions, and they were reasonably similar, they probably would do just one review. Since they haven't played both versions, I agree the responsible thing to do is wait. If any differences are minor, they will probably just copy and paste the Xbox review into the PS3 channel.

HolyOrangeCows5152d ago

"[Update] We have received the PS3 version. The review will be posted just as soon as we've had a chance to put it through the paces"

Watch them go and give it a .5 point reduction for insignificant differences.

Trey_4_life5152d ago

The reason there is no PS3 version is because they are still playing the extra exclusive PS3 content which seems to add a lot more game play time

hassi945151d ago

What an absolute fanboy. An extra ranch area to give like an extra 10 hours + gameplay time. What a joke.

Karlnag35151d ago

couldn't agree more... I'm a playstation fan and even I think that has to be one of the dumbest things I've read on this site.

I also own a 360.

Blaze9295152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

all the PS3 reviews I seen so far have been positive.

WhittO5152d ago

hmmm weird, maybe they still need to polish off the ps3 version before release and didn't want it reflected on reviews so left it out ? lol

rob60215152d ago

yea i was thinking maybe they're pushing for a release day patch to help get the PS3 version optimized..

kaveti66165152d ago

There's no way to do that now. The game went gold weeks ago. And if IGN has to wait for an update to the PS3 version to download before they play it, you can bet your ass they're going to reflect that in their review.

himdeel5152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

...with respect to this game. Mainly because I already paid off my copy and secondly I made up my mind about purchasing this game after seeing the free roam mode. That mode with 7 other pals sold me on this game and it's reason enough for me to play RDR.

The only thing left to decide upon now is if I'm going to jump right into the free roam mode right away or try the SP campaign first. Outside of those thoughts I DO HOPE to NOT feel in ANY way like I did a few days after my GTA4 purchase.

EDIT: What I really would like is another video review now that I'd read the 360 Review of the game. I don't expect any differences in those write ups.

sixaxis5152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

well, update says: "We have received the PS3 version. The review will be posted just as soon as we've had a chance to put it through the paces."

so we will see what they write about it.

Odin7775152d ago

@ Parapraxis I have to say...I have noticed that pattern recently with reviewers. Hopefully its only a coincidence.

pixelsword5151d ago

From that point on, IGN has lost all credibility for me.

hassi945151d ago (Edited 5151d ago )

yea....something is wierd...and I am buying the PS3 version...I am playing BC2 on Live, so I wanted to balance the online game playing

dgroundwater5152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

So you are jsutifying your purchase on PS3 by randomly letting us know you are currently playing BC2 on Live? Am I supposed to applaud your honesty or facepalm at N4G?

Anyway I wouldn't get too worked up by the news. This doesn't necessary mean development trouble or anything.

divideby05152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

^ I dont justify what I buy to anyone especially those on the net. Its just a comment I made..dont read into it.
I thought I read the PS3 was the lead platform, but not 100% sure

MGRogue20175152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

... Is it just me or is IGN kinda agreeing that the PS3 version is the best version of the game with this article?? :D

Rowsdower5152d ago

the way the article fails to imply anything of that sort leads me to the same conclusion.

;P

aaronisbla5152d ago

first i was thinkin WTF is rowsdower talkin about then i read the rest of ur comment, bubbles

BRG90005152d ago

It's just you. IGN is explicitly saying they haven't played the PS3 version. At least not enough to make that judgement.

rob60215152d ago

How big is the hideout?? is it like a whole other town or what..? If it's a little shack then who knows which is better.

CR-Y-SIS5152d ago

Maybe MS ninjas got to the delivery man?

dc15152d ago (Edited 5152d ago )

Funny and out of order... all at the same time! Take a +plus Bub!

AKS5152d ago

Of the reviews of the PS3 version I've seen, all have been positive. The secrecy about the PS3 version is quite odd. No footage, few reviews, ect.

Christopher5151d ago

There's nothing odd here. In the U.S. media, it's typically the 360 version that is completely reviewed while the PS3, if at all played, is only done a bit to determine any peculiar differences.

Red Dead Redemption 1 Isn't As Good As People Remember It To Be

RDR 1 was a great game, but the lack of screen time for some characters, boring horse riding, and lack of mission variety takes away the fun at times.

Yeah
It's as good as you remember
Feels like one of those "10 HARSH realities of Re-watching" articles

just_looken5d ago

I love how it seems a extreme few remember that red dead redemption is red dead revolver 2.

red dead revolver now that is rough red dead redemption for its time was groundbreaking and it still has way better cover system/dlc/mp content then red dead 2.

I remember all the bugs the game had day one like donkey lady so dam funny

Cacabunga4d ago

RDR1 is a legendary game!!!

Really how to cope with a slow news day…

just_looken4d ago

@caca

I know i said that

Oh boy let me guess no one here knows what red dead revolver is

Or you all never played version 1.0 of rdr 1 i bet its that so many on here have the stench of being in gaming for 10 years at most.

Cacabunga4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Stop pretending being superior in knowledge to everyone else..

The article title is about RDR1 and the thumbnail also confirma that. No one (at least i dont) care about what you say about RDRev.

You are the only one who spoke off topic abt another game.
If it makes you glad that you are the only one who knows what RDRev is then congratulations.. just pathetic

“ red dead revolver now that is rough red dead redemption for its time was groundbreaking and it still has way better cover system/dlc/mp content then red dead 2.”

Oh and thanks for the laugh ..

jznrpg4d ago

They didn’t name it Red Dead Revolver 2. They named it Red Dead Redemption

neutralgamer19924d ago

Looken

It was made by Capcom until they gave up and R* bought the IP. Hopefully one day we get a complete remake of the original to bring it in line with rest of the series along with other quality if life features. Another great is Gun very under rated

On topic:

If we are going to compare RDR to current generation games then we will surly find some stuff that's lacking but for it's time it was a masterpiece and for me it's one of the best games I have ever played. I hope it ends up on Pc where nodding community can take full advantage and make the game even better. Other than that's no it's not overrated at all. We don't even get that many western games and it's to me the best one (yes better then RDR2)

jeromeface4d ago

is also so damn funny how no one agrees with you

just_looken1d 14h ago

@neutralgamer1992

Really so that gaint R symbol on the box is just a myth

shinoff21835d ago

Junk article. Game was dope and still is. The swimming part sucks though.

just_looken5d ago

It does but the game was made originally for ps2 back after san andreas so for the dev window and timeline it makes sense.

just_looken4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

red dead revolver was back in 2004
https://www.gamesradar.com/...

after this they were making gta iv and a squeal that became read dead redemption

But you all will hate this because facts are scary

"Red Dead [Redemption] has been in production for six years (mainly because of horrible management/lack of direction due to fear of disrespecting Rockstar NY) and it will never get the money back in sales it cost to create for those six years," claimed another source.

From a 2010 article hmm what is 2010 - 6 hmmm

https://www.engadget.com/20...

The swimming in red dead one made sense for the time period and dev hell it was in

Again though it seems alot on here have 0 game knowledge before 2018.

jambola4d ago

Nobody asked about or mentioned revolver
Why are you bringing it up in every reply?

shinoff21834d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Just looken

I could agree with you about the swimming part but I was swimming my ass off in San Andreas which pre dates

Either way it's not a deal breaker and the game was dope af

-Foxtrot4d ago

I liked it a bit better because I didn’t think it had many “small nitpicky” things RDR2 had that on its own meant nothing but when a lot built up it was annoying. For example getting off your horse and you had to reselect your weapons again or walking around the camp slowly. None issues but built up with others sometimes it was a little frustrating at times.

While not on the PS4, if you want a pretty imaginative and downright fun Cowboy game you should check out Call of Juarez: Gunslinger. Not only is it a great arcade FPS in its own right but one that has some Narrative Elements that interact with the Gameplay in a pretty surprising and novel way. Something a few of the AAAAAAAA games should be looking at in order to marry the Narrative with the Gameplay better.

The best part is that you can get it for a few dollars on GOG or STEAM during their sales.
