11. Red Dead Redemption
John Marston’s story wouldn’t end well. That much was clear from the start. But then the game lulls the players in a false sense of security. Yeah, let’s just get settled in on the farm. Everything will be all right. Just John, the wife and the kid. And the world is a happy place.
Until the feds show up, and all the bullet time in the world won’t save Marston from ending up as a human swiss cheese. Then a few years later his son picks up the guns and goes after the traitors, the killers, and has himself some good old fashioned revenge, ending the game on a blood, sweat and tear filled bang. Also the song for the credits helps with the whole tears bit.
