Red Dead Redemption

Released: May 18, 2010


Saddling up as former outlaw John Marston, players learned that trying to repent for your past sins doesn’t always work out the way you want it to. Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption had beautiful, detailed environments. Journeying to the snowy mountains could mean you’d garner unwanted attention from a grizzly, while the desert was a playground for cougars. Death was waiting around every corner of the Wild West, and that’s what made it so exciting to explore. After its release, Rockstar released Undead Nightmare -- a downloadable content pack that sparked new life into the western despite its focus on a zombie apocalypse.
