Angelo Bronte is one of RDR2's most formidable villains, and his deception when Dutch, Lenny and Arthur go after the Saint Denis Tram depot is one of the worst things to happen in game, because it spirals into something truly terrible.

In any case, the moment it becomes clear that Dutch has been duped, where the trio are encircled by the Saint Denis police force, is particularly shocking. Escape seems impossible, but the group hatch an ingenious plan to make a getaway on one of the town trams, which forces Arthur to switch from side to side and shoot officer after officer with a double-action revolver at immense speeds.

Lenny, who's taking the reigns of the vehicle, unfortunately loses control and it crashes into the street. The group are then forced to make their getaway by horse, but the image of Arthur switching from side to side to protect his two comrades not only makes for one of the coolest in the game, but one of its best too.
