Red Dead Redemption
is an open-world, third-person,
action-adventure game set at the tail end of the American West West era.
Action takes place in the first few years of the twentieth century and
revolves around the choices that the protagonist, former outlaw John
Marston, is forced to make due to his blemished past. The game features a
morality system assigning honor and fame points generated through the
player's choices. It also features Wild West themed mini-games, new
targeting and cover systems, extensive horse riding abilities, a wealth
of period specific weapons and more than 40 huntable animals.
