    One of my fondest memories or Undead Nightmare was at the end of the Sasquatch mission, while my grandma was watching me play. I let the last Sasquatch go and my grandma pipes up and says “you shouldn’t let him live, he might come back one day”. I listened, and killed it. Grandma was and still is stone cold

    I’m still extremely impressed by that Sasquatch side mission. It is simultaneously so hilarious and yet so depressing. Like it’s not that it can seamlessly go from sad to funny. No, it’s literally sad and hysterical at the same time to where you’re laughing your ass off with your face but crying in your mind. It’s so impeccably balanced and is what makes it probably my favorite side mission ever.

      Funny, I remember that year -- and all four of the games you listed were prime reasons for it -- as being absolutely awful for games.

      Black Ops' Problem: Call of Duty
      New Vegas' Problem: _"It Just Works(tm)"_
      Halo Reach's Problem: Actually I may have exaggerated, Reach is literally the only Halo worth playing whatsoever, but if anything, it's the exception that proves the rule. And, for the record, that rule is "Halo."
      The only half-decent games I remember from 2010 that weren't on the Wii or named "Reach" were Civilization V, Vanquish and Deadly Premonition.

More scary than the zombies honestly.

    Undead nightmare does something with zombies that's criminally underrated; zombies via possession. In most zombie media, it's almost always ALWAYS a super virus. But I like the idea of a deity controlling them. It almost gives the zombies more character. At the end when Marston is running through ancient catacombs with the deity talking about how these are man's demons was really intresting to me. Undead nightmare is a must play 💯

I think it's still the only zombie game I've played that actually that makes you headshot zombies to put em down. Who would've thought that putting in the most basic part of zombie lore into a zombie game would go down so swimmingly? It's probably why many still consider it the best zombie game ever made.

That being said they usually do align pretty accurately, while still adding new perspective to some aspects of a game that's being talked about. Also - since we're already on the topic of Rockstar with this video and the one about the og RDR - how about a full on video by the title of "Why is L.A Noire SO AWESOME!?"? I'm just playing it now after stopping my first playthrough years ago due to how poorly it performed on my PC at that time and I can't get over the fact how good it is. Also if you played Kingdom Come: Deliverance, it'd be interesting to hear your take on it. I personally loved every single minute of it, including the DLCs, especially "A Woman's Lot".

    Thanks for bringing back the nostalgia of this game! I remember when I got the disc version as a kid for my birthday and it came with stickers and a cool poster. Most Games don’t have this amount of love anymore.

    Undead Nightmare is hands down the most best and most underrated DLC ever made in my opinion.
    It changed everything. Also scared the hell out of me for how haunting it is.
    Thick atmosphere, chilling music, strange interactions and everything is basically undead and the story and characters are just as brilliant and funny.
    I also loved how the moon would go green or sometimes red. That kinda freaked me out and everything is quiet and still.. actually feels like the end of the world in Red Dead.
    It is such a shame they didn’t do Undead Nightmare 2. Such a blast.
    It’s like a zombie B movie. It’s George A Romero meets Sam Rami that team up with Tarantino. Haha!

    I got this DLC for Christmas way back, and in 2020 I revisited it for Halloween, and damn did I have a blast! with the soundtrack that I can barely put into words for how good it is! one second you feel like a badass with that surfer music on the train, the next, you’re making your horse go at the speed of a modern locomotive because of how scary the wild is now that it’s ridden with the undead.

    2:43 funny, that’s actually canon why he says that, you see, he made a deal with some mysterious guy who seems kinda like the devil where nothing bad happens to him, so he says this because he had the deal with the devil. In the game he’s known as the stranger.

    Honestly one of my favorite aspects about this game was the four Horses that you can find, It broke my absolute mine when I was a kid when I found one and it made me very sad when I mess up on catching them.😺

    This was my favorite zombie game of all time. It was hilarious. I played it as a dlc meaning I beat the main game first but it was stand alone so not everyone did. You miss alot by not playing the main story. But if you did then I'd be hard pressed to call this anything but a masterpiece. Thanks for the nostalgia!

    I remember running around tall trees the blue circle pops up and i see a white horse with greenish fog coming from it running through the trees until I tame it. when those pop up it is a great feeling. theirs also a unicorn in the lower map of Mexico not to mention when it dies it goes back to where you found it by ragdoll glitch flying into the sky.

    I think Undead Nightmare was very unique and interesting specially for the time (and yes I know zombie games were popular but it was rare to see a western zombie game at least from what I know)

    I thought this video covered the game well overall, but he did miss on a couple aspects. I recently completed Undead Nightmare 100% so it’s fresh in my mind. If you tame all four horses of the apocalypse and complete a challenge where you need to kill zombies with Death you will get horse deeds so you can summon any of them at any time. If you complete all of the missing person missions you will get unlimited ammo and items. If you find all of the treasure you can store more ammo for all of your weapons. So I would say there are cool rewards for completing various challenges in the game.

    RDR's soundtrack is just amazing, both in the core game and possibly even more in the Undead Nightmare expansion.
    To this day they're at the very top in that category, for me.
    Thanks for your videos!

    One problem i had with this DLC is that it was too easy, and the ammo economy wasn't as scarce as the trailers made it out to be. You get ammo from clearing out graveyards with a spare 6 ammo of every type for burning one coffin. It was easy to stick with using one weapon type and completely filling up on every other ammo type and still having enough for the weapon you were using. Clearing towns would spawn in a few boxes with ammo in them that would respawn every time you visited and Even if you are running low, you can go treasure hunting where you are rewarded with a bunch of ammo. Honestly, it was rare for me to be completely out of ammo in any of my weapons, and even if i was, i pretty much had max ammo in every other gun. I feel like if ammo is this abundant in a zombie game the zombies health should be adjusted so you can actually run out
