On August 17, the beloved Western experience Red Dead Redemption and its horror companion Undead Nightmare arrive together for the first time on the Nintendo Switch and modern PlayStation systems.

        RDR1 has already been playable on Xenia for quite some time. (And the emulator your thinking of is Yuzu/Ryujinx, Cemu is a wiiu emulator)

        Oh man… Choosing games is really becoming tough lately! Busy with TOTK after I am done I plan on buying Hogwarts Legacy assuming it still launches on time. Also want to play Witcher 3 - been toying with this in my mind for some time now. Oh well maybe I’ll just buy all three…

    Never played this one, only the second. I especially liked the slow and deliberate style and pacing of RDR 2, something a lot of people found off putting. Is this game similar? I guess my question is: If I liked the gameplay of the second game will I enjoy the first?

      I would say that the gameplay is a more simplified version of red dead 2. The base mechanics are mostly the same but red dead 2 adds more depth. In some ways I prefer the gameplay in red dead 1 as it’s simple to understand health, stamina, and dead eye work without having to bother with “cores” (there are no cores in red dead 1)

      Eating and medicine is simply for restoring health, deadeye is refilled by getting head shots. No gun maintenance or inventory management needed in the first game.

      The story is a bit more focused in the first game as well instead of strung out into chapters.

    Nice. I love to see so many 360/PS3 era games come to switch. Hope for Oblivion or FO3 to get released
