Is this actually worth it?

[AlexGunner]

The game looks great its just £40 is a ton for a 14 year old game which is going for £10 on its original platform

TLDR; Game is worth £15 at most for new players, perhaps worth full price if you already played and loved RDR1. Wait for sale if you arent that interested.

If you played it back in the day and absolutely loved it and want to relive it, perhaps. In my case, Im real excited, I'm almost convinced I'd get £20 worth from each game and the nostalgia. For me it perfectly holds up and I enjoy it on Xbone. Increased draw distance, 4k and high frame rates are a bonus. IMO it is perfectly playable in 2024. But I am biased.

If you didnt play this back in the day or at least not very much and just want to see what the first game was like, then definitely NOT worth the full price, wait for a sale. This game can show its age, unless you're a die hard RDR2 fan and desperately want to continue the story, and you can ignore the game's flaws with age - WAIT FOR SALE. Still an incredible game even today if you can past some quirks due to age.

wait some test before buying it
if the port is f*cked up and you cant refund it, you only have you're eyes left to cry
other than that the game itself is amazing, Expensive for a 14 years old port but it still a very good game

Precisely my concern and why I also suggest waiting to see if the port is even good. Even then I may still wait for a sale, £40 is so steep even for such a great game like RDR1.

I paid £6 for it on disk for PS3 but 40 quid is not too bad.
