10 Iconic Rockstar Games - Ranked From Worst To Best
1. Red Dead Redemption
Red Dead Redemption is a game that manages to capture the imagination unlike any other. The intricate design of this open world is completely unrivalled by anything they've done before, and feels like a culmination of all Rockstar have learned from developing their more experimental titles as well as the mainline Grand Theft Auto series.
John Marston's story is unforgettable, and tells a better tale than most Western movies, giving you the unique experience of being in full control of the protagonist. The gunplay, especially the Dead Eye Targeting still stand out as some of the most satisfying shooting mechanics in gaming, and coupled with the horseback rides through valleys and deserts full of bandits and danger, create an incredible atmosphere that can't be experienced anywhere else.
Rockstar managed to lift a piece of history and transform it into a game, and still managed to add a lot of their iconic flair. In addition, Undead Nightmare stands out as one of the best DLC packages ever released, showing that Rockstar can be hilarious and experimental, creating iconic games that stand the test of time.
The hype for a sequel has been there since it's release, but with Red Dead Redemption 2 finally coming out at the end of this year, I can't wait to don my cowboy hat again and set out in search of fortune in the Old West.
