Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailer
You know that here at Mods “R” Us we love us some Red Dead Redemption and we have just spent the last few hours watching the new trailer over and over again and wanted to share our thoughts on it.
First of all, it is a prequel and it sees you playing as an outlaw called, Arthur Morgan who is part of the Van der Linde gang. If that name sounds familiar it is because the leader of this game is a man called Dutch. The main who John Marston was sent to bring in during the events of the first game.
While John Marston (who is one of the best video game characters of all time) was a former outlaw who had a moral compass and was a bad guy, turned good trying to make a go of it with his wife and son. Arthur from what we see in the trailer looks to be a straight up outlaw, but as this is a RockStar game it is sure to have a million twists and turns to the story.
Not much in terms of gameplay was shown, but we did get to see some epic train and bank robberies as well as hunting things like bears and crocodiles. Speaking of which out of all the areas the trailer showed, the Louisiana style swamp looked the most intriguing.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is not going to be released until 2018 and as this is a RockStar game, we are sure there will be at least one more delay. But as far as we are concerned, RockStar can take all the time in the world as long as they make this as good as the first Red Dead Redemption.
You better get on the run from the cops as we are back with part 7 of our Grand Theft Auto retrospective!
Grand Theft Auto Advance (2004) Game Boy AdvanceWhile not the first Grand Theft Auto game to be on a Nintendo system, seeing GTA on anything Nintendo related was still kind of weird. This actually started its life as port of Grand Theft Auto III! Obviously, that was far too ambitious and this idea was scrapped and Grand Theft Auto Advance became its own thing, which is actually kind of a prequel to GTA III.
As you would expect, Grand Theft Auto Advance has a top down view like the classic games. But this time it is a bit more polished and they have tried to give it a 3D kind of feel and things like the map, the cars, and the weapons were clearly inspired by the 3D games so, in a way, Grand Theft Auto Advance is like a mix of the old GTA games and the 3D ones.
The story sees you playing as a criminal called Mike, who along with his buddy Vinnie are going to do one last job and then leave the life of crime behind. Of course, this job goes horribly wrong, Vinnie dies and as Mike, you swear revenge on him and the criminal world of Liberty City! The story was not as great as the other games, but to be fair it was all told through pictures and text.
Grand Theft Auto Advance was a pretty decent throwback to the older GTA games. It was met with rather mixed reviews at the time of release, mainly because people had gotten so used to the 3D Grand Theft Auto games so going back to this was very hard for some people.
