Arthur and John’s relationship is the heart of Red Dead Redemption 2 . Yes, the story is primarily about Arthur’s redemption, but it is through their relationship that we see the redemption taking place. And just as Arthur changes throughout the story, so too does John. Both start the story as immoral and violent men, and both end in better places having gone through their respective redemptive arcs. One could certainly argue that the “redemption” of Red Dead Redemption 2 is about both John and Arthur. Yes, John had his redemption in the first game as well, but hey, no one said that life is one straight p

The PlayStation 4 is nearing the benchmark of reaching over 100 million units sold worldwide. This feat was accomplished largely due to the platform provided players with exclusive and 3rd party single-player games that took players breath away and carved out new quality standards in the AAA gaming sp

It’s a neat idea, but it breaks the pacing of missions and grows tiresome after watching the animation for the hundredth time. GTA VI shouldn’t even think about adopting a similar mechanic. It would be like having to worry about gas in a car’s t

The next GTA doesn’t need to get as dour as Arthur Morgan’s tale, but a black comedy can still have award-worthy dialogue and scenarios. One area that can still be improved upon is the heavy-handedness with which its themes are conveyed. Players are smart enough to understand subtext without having it banged over their he

The Truth has called into the Area 53 radio station claiming to have interacted with alien life and is even speculated to have an account on Grand Theft Auto IV’s whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com under the name Trooth. While he may come across as a throwaway NPC, this guys journey from pure hippie to a conspiracy theorist is worth a l

However, the letter that he gets back from his brother is less than conciliatory, hinting at a dark past with Micah that he would rather forget, before warning him not to come anywhere near him or his family. We hated Micah, but we would be interested in a game that showed us exactly what he and his brother used to

Both Laura Bailey and Nadia Black return to their roles from the mainline Uncharted games and deliver performances that make this spinoff feel like much more than that. This game manages to exclude the series’ main protagonist and deliver an authentic Uncharted experie

Grand Theft Auto V’s Los Santos is huge, but the player can’t do a whole lot in it besides sparking chaos. RDR2 adds a ton of depth to the Open world Games Patch notes itself, letting players inside most houses, and allowing Arthur Morgan to rummage through cabinets. It’s understandable to not have access to every building within GTA’s urban sprawls, but they should have as many as possi

Despite being the creator of numerous memes and jokes The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was one of the most commercially successful and well-reviewed role-playing games of the last decade. Many people lose sight of what it did for the genre in 2011, as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt set a new standard for the genre 4 years la

Thankfully in 2009, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves managed to capture the Game of the Year prize at that year’s Spike Game Awards, earning a piece of hardware that the franchise deserved. With the future of the franchise, a question mark post- Uncharted 4 , what comes n

Rockstar games hasn’t let people down since it first entered the mainstream with 2001’s Grand Theft Auto III , which ignited a revolution within the industry, shattering sales records and becoming as influential to video game design as it was controversial. Since that seminal release, the studio has continued to top themselves with each new project. The company’s most recent release, Red Dead Redemption 2 , improved upon Grand Theft Auto V in almost every

So, The Game Awards are gaming’s biggest award show and the closest thing we have to the Oscars in terms of an American-led prestige award show for video games. Geoff Keighley has done an excellent job running the show since 2014 and manages to outdo himself every time the show comes aro

The original songs, written and performed by legends like Willie Nelson and D’Angelo, are catchy enough on their own, but are now unforgettable after being forever linked to the game. GTA VI should recruit more legendary songwriters and performers to lay down new tra

On the outset, Portal 2 comes across like a pretty lighthearted game. Sure, there are mysteries concerning the plot, but there isn’t a lot to suggest it is harboring unsettling secrets. Well..spoiler alert..it is. In one of the game’s early test chambers, you can find a room covered in weird graffiti, and if you listen close enough, you can hear odd and disturbing chant

Arthur is quite the family man. Not long after having Jack, John left the van der Linde in a moment of selfishness and self-reflection. Not much is known about his time away from the family, but one thing is for sure – Arthur was not happy about it. It’s pretty clear that Arthur was quite hurt by John’s selfish action, as he brings it up about five thousand times in the early part of the game. The family rides and dies together, and John completely abandoned that ideol
