Mr. Perfect


I was supposed to have written this post about a week ago, but got lazy. That shouldn't come as a big surprise, but yeah... I was supposed to have written this post about a week ago. Last week, I fully completed the single player for Red Dead Redemption. Thats right, 100%.

I don't fully complete many games, let alone any games as big as RDR, so I was very chuffed when I finally finished it. Unlocking a 100 point achievement certainly made all of the time and effort worthwhile. To get to 100%, there are many obscure things you need to do/find. Here is a brief list of things which need to be covered...

Story Missions
Rare Weapons
Outfits
Houses
Jobs
Hideouts
Challenges
Bounties
Strangers
Mini-Games
Map Locations


Now that I am done with the single player, RDR is almost on the trade pile. Like any game on the cusp of being traded, I am now looking to milk as much gamerscore as I can from it. I'm looking to finish the co-op missions, before trading it in.

It does take a while (it took me four and a half days), but completing any game 100% feels great.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that RDR was a really enjoyable game. Rockstar did an excellent job of creating a realistic and highly detailed world, with excellent characters. If you're not interested in going for 100%, I highly recommend you complete the main story missions. Red Dead Redemption is an excellent game.
