Red Dead Redemption: 10 Facts And Trivia You Never Knew About The First Game

Even if you have never played either Red Dead Redemption game, it's clear that horses play a major role, and to ensure that the movements were as realistic as possible, the creators went above and beyond. The team actually motion-captured a stunt horse, which isn't the easiest thing to do as they managed to record as many possible movements, although this brought with it plenty of probl

During the game, players can hear a story about how Hosea originally wanted to be a priest. He goes on to say that "didn't know that you had to be Catholic to be a priest." This implies that he likely wasn't originally Catholic, but was rather a convert to the relig

This one is particularly troublesome, or hilarious, in the online portion of the game. The mission is done and the players start making their way back to the mission giver or a drop-off point. They are quietly strolling along when suddenly a player manages to get themselves knocked off the side of a cliff or flung off their equine. Maybe they themselves didn't bite the bullet, but the prisoner or bounty they were holding probably did. Some of these targets are fragile as glass once they are sitting atop the back of a horse with their hands t

She starts as an innocent wife who then turns to a life of violence and crime to fulfill her revenge and animosity towards the O'Driscoll gang. By the end of the game, she's still an angered and rigged person who often uses violence to cope with her unresolved issues of l

Hosea is quite funny and happens to be one of the livelier members of the Van Der Linde gang despite being the elder of the group. At a young age, Hosea was a stage actor who had dreams of becoming a famous comed

In the game Discussions's bid for realism, Arthur's hair, both on his scalp and face, grows throughout gameplay. As days and nights pass, his head gets progressively hairier, to the point where he looks like he's been living in a cave for years. It certainly adds to the immersion, but it's also pretty funny to see him show up with a beard and long locks after a time jump. Fortunately, barbers are never too far away to make him more presentable, if that's what the player wa

This makes sense considering Hosea always seems to have an eye for theatrics and understands that conning people is simply a vile way of living life as an actor. He was always willing to play the role to accomplish whatever crime he and Dutch had planned in the middle of the ni

It shouldn't come as a surprise that the oldest member of the Van Der Linde gang also happened to be the resident bookworm. Hosea loved reading and had an appreciation and love for crime novels above all e

Earlier the topic of Sadie Adler not being associated with the Van Der Linde gang in the news or with law enforcement was covered. This is crazy and pretty fortunate for her considering most of the crew was known by name and hunted d

When players are first introduced to Strauss early in the game his demeanor makes him suspect from the beginning. Many times in Westerns or tales inspired by them, the men who are loan sharks and bookkeepers tend to be the first ones to bail when the going gets to

Due to creative differences with Angel Studios, Capcom ended up canceling the game, and there was a time when the world was almost never introduced to the Red Dead world, which is a strange thought considering its success. Thankfully, this is where Rockstar stepped in as the recent owner of Angel Studios, one of the Angel Studios came across the game and the company decided to buy the rig

It probably isn't a surprise that a Grand Theft Auto game is on this list, half this list could have been covered by just GTA games! But GTA V is the best (so far) out of the series and the best crime video game. The game's story mode is told through the perspective of Trevor, Michael, and Franklin, three men who each live a life of cr

The Mafia series is a collection of games that follows different protagonists as they rise through the ranks of the criminal underworld and fall through them. The first game follows Tommy Angelo who finds himself caught between two warring mafia families. The second follows Vito Scaletta as he tries to repay his father's debt, and Mafia III follows Lincoln Clay on his quest for revenge against a mob fam

This one would be impressive if it wasn't done by accident. Not only can players shoot the hats off enemies, exposing their foreheads to the sun or revealing a bald spot, but enemies can return the favor and shoot Arthur's hat to the wind. You can do a lot of things to people, but tampering with their headwear is a whole other level of insult. Fortunately, Arthur has magic hat regenerating powers, but the NPCs he shoots down don't have the same abil

Assassin's Creed Syndicate is the ninth main game in the Assassin's Creed franchise. Just like all the other games, the game is about the battle between the Assassins and Templars. It follows twin assassins Evie and Jacob in London, as they follow the path of the city's criminal underground to release it from Templar contGoogle memory game
