I'd take GTA5 over RDR easy tbqh.

Not saying RDR wasn't good, because it was great, but I dunno where this wave of people saying it's game-of-the-gen started coming from a few years ago.

I dont think its even top 3.... but its god damn in the running (and definitely better than anything GTA ever did).

One thing right off the bat is last gen was pretty damn horrible for Nintendo. And thats something that ALWAYS has something high for best game of the gen easy, many times outright winning it. The amount of amazing games on SNES, N64, GCN, is staggering, and while the Wii didnt have tons, the ones it did have (Galaxy) are some of the best games ever made. Last gen their best game was a handheld in Link Between Worlds. And their best console game was probably Tropical Freeze. It should be obvious that that isnt winning game of gen any time soon. And filling that hole N left.... shitty Indy games....

So yeah, its easy to see why RDR is considered one of if not the best. Its going against terrible shit like Undertale and that stupid game where you sweep dust...
