Few games are as hotly anticipated as Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption. The Grand Theft Auto publisher knows better than anyone else how to make open world games that people love to play in, and this American frontier themed game looks incredible.

This official trailer introduces us to Red Dead Redemption's huge world, full of cowboys, bandits, and beautiful scenery. Anyone skeptical that a game without cars, helicopters and rocket launchers can't succeed should watch this high definition video!

There are lots of new things to do in Red Dead Redemption, like hunting, exploration, cooperative multiplayer and of course a lot of shooting. As with the GTA games, it looks like Rockstar will reference lots of classic movies in the game, with a story that covers the last years of the Wild West, before the breakout of World War One.

Westerns may have been big in Cinema, but that's never been true with video games - maybe Red Dead Redemption will change all that.
