WHAT I'VE POSTED ABOUT IT ON X

Impossible matchups No. 25 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs. Red Dead Redemption II They came out 29 years apart, and neither one has anything in common. Which one was the better game?

Overrated Game of the Day! Red Dead Redemption 2 (Xbox One) Red Dead Redemption 2 shows up on almost every greatest game of all time list and I legitimately don't understand why. It's like Rockstar played Gun and asked "What if this was boring?" That's Red Dead Redemption. Then they asked "What if it was even slower?" and that's 2. The visuals are stunning and the gameplay itself is decent. I'm not arguing that part. What I am arguing is the game takes forever to get going. It's not a slow first hour, it's a slow first several hours, and by the time it opens up you've already spent a night doing chores. The best thing I did in RDR2 was sit on my horse in an empty field and watch the sunset. It was actually relaxing, but I'm playing a game that's supposed to be an action game. Why is the action so far apart? I'm not hating on Rockstar at all here. I just think Red Dead Redemption 2 is incredibly overrated. It's a visually stunning game that forgot it was supposed to be fun.

5. Red Dead Redemption 2 People called it the best western game ever made. It bored me. Gun did the open world western first, years earlier, on weaker hardware, and got none of the credit for it.
