10 Best Red Dead Redemption Cutscenes

The funniest mission across the whole Red Dead franchise is Arthur’s infamous night out with Lenny. Suitably downplayed by the mission title, never has it been more fun to stumble around, half-cut, looking for your mate in a

The Undead Nightmare DLC has been hugely popular with Red Dead fans – and this mission is a nod to the zombie movies that inspired it. When filmmaker D.S. MacKenna has the mighty brainwave to make a movie about “flesh-eating monsters,” John can’t help but ask: “What kind of sick person would like th

While visiting the town of Valentine, a man named Jimmy Brooks recognizes Arthur Morgan as one of the men involved in the Blackwater incident. This doesn’t bode well for him, as a chase ensues that results in him hanging off a cliff, begging for his life. The cutscene that follows is iconic, as it defines just who Arthur is in the world he lives

Chinatown Wars is arguably the greatest handheld entry in the Grand Theft Auto canon – at least according to Metacritic. The game was originally released for the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable before receiving mobile ports for Android and i

When John first arrives at Armadillo , it quickly becomes clear that the cholera plague has taken its toll on the town. Travel around to Coot’s Chapel and players may be greeted with the sight of a gravedigger burying and burning a plethora of bod

Released just one year after the legendary Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City took the GTA formula to Florida, and what a surprise it turned out to be. Players control Tommy Vercetti, a convict and mafia member who is sent to Vice City (Miami) to establish a drug emp

These people are simply walking down the street and minding their own business when Arthur approaches, asks if they want trouble, and possibly beats/kills them after they fight back. And this is one of the reasons why Arthur is a true villa

The 3D open world was unlike anything seen in gaming at the time, and the level of freedom that the game afforded its players was simply unimaginable. This game singlehandedly launched the industry into the 21st century, and its reverberations are still being felt to this

Dutch’s origins as a runaway from his impoverished family struggling to make it, and his turn to thievery for survival, also lay the foundation for the gang itself. Dutch feels like an outsider in the frontier, a misfit that dreams of a better life. As such, he collects other outsiders struggling to make it and brings them into his family. He finds a brother in Hosea when they try to rob each other, similar to Anakin finding a brother in Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the two form the bedrock of the Van Der Linde Gang. Dutch then finds sons in Arthur and John , another pair of unfortunate kids trying to survive, and the stage is set for Dutch’s series of betrayals in RDR2 . As Anakin turned his back on Obi-Wan and caused Padme’s demise, so too does Dutch turn his back on Hosea and set in motion the destruction of John and Art

Emmet Granger is a gunslinger-turned-hog-farmer, and he’s keen to teach Arthur a lesson in hog care before he will tell him anything about Jim ‘Boy’ Calloway. Arthur reluctantly agrees, which sees him spend a good couple of minutes picking up pig manure while trying to wheedle some stories out of Gran

There were many moments between Arthur and Dutch that demonstrated not only the vaguely abusive power dynamic between the two of them but also how important their relationship was to the overall story. However, their last interaction was by far the most stunning in its rawn

Like most of the strangers across the Red Dead world, Professor Marko Dragic is something of an eccentric. What starts as an innocent mission on a boating lake becomes something much darker when Dragic goes all Frankenstein and harnesses the power of electricity to create his very own bionic

He does this all by himself, thinking he can get Bill to come down with words alone. And when that doesn’t work, he reaches for his gun and is promptly shot in the side. It’s an interesting scene and incredibly dramatic. Without context, it also makes John seem diplomatic and brave. But with the prequel’s context, players understand the truth: he’s just kind of dumb sometim

Charles Kinnear is convinced he can create wings that will allow him to launch himself off a cliff and land safely on the ground. Obviously, he can’t – but helping him collect the items he needs to build his wings is worth it to watch the l

Eventually, though, he finds the last one, who weeps and articulates to John how his species is done for now. John clumsily tries to justify the killings, but the creature shoots back, “We eat berries and mushrooms, you fool!” It’s one of the most quoted RDR cutscenes because, after the main game puts John through such a harrowing journey, it’s just so utterly jarring and out-th

While the main missions contain plenty of comic moments – both Arthur and John have quickfire wit – it’s the ‘Stranger’ missions and side quests that contain the funniest, most bizarre stories. All the funniest video game missions have a little darkness behind them – and Red Dead Redemption 2 Dlc Dead pulls them off perfec
