Red Dead Redemption 2 Sales Have Already Outpaced RDR1

As a matter of fact, Rockstar Games' parent company, Take-Two Interactive, has now officially declared that RDR2's sales have already outpaced the original game's total lifetime figures after just a couple of weeks of being available.

It's perhaps worth pointing out that murdering suffragettes in Red Dead Redemption 2 actually lowers your Honor rating, while attacking members of the Ku Klux Klan improves it, so there's definitely a message that Rockstar wants to get across.

Those aren't the only accolades Take-Two called out, either: Rockstar's Cowboy epic is apparently the most pre-ordered full game ever sold on PlayStation Network, as well as the biggest day-one sales of any digital PlayStation games.

Women Help Lead Democrats to US House Majority
Also in the House, Democrats Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of MI will be the first Muslim women to serve in Congress. The win was momentous for a number of reasons, not just that Democrats can now challenge Trump and the Republican party agenda.

Woman Who Lived in Kenyan Refugee Camp Wins USA Elections
Born in Detroit to Palestinian-American parents, Tlaib served in Michigan's state legislature from 2008 to 2014. Democratic Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison was the first Muslim elected to Congress.

Republicans Win Enough Red States To Expand Senate Control
Democrats could derail Trump's legislative agenda for the next two years should they win control of the House or the Senate. The septuagenarian also would exert influence over writing laws on guns, immigration policy and voting rights.

Red Dead Redemption 2 released to overwhelming critical praise, becoming one of the highest rated games of this entire generation.

According to Take-Two, Rockstar has now shipped more than 17 million copies of Red Dead Redemption 2, with the publisher also revealing that RDR2's first eight days on the market led to it selling more than RDR1 did within its first eight years of release. You may have not noticed them because you can't see them while playing Red Dead Redemption 2. All we know so far is that Red Dead Online will be an evolution of Red Dead Redemptions online mode and it will feature constant updates and adjustments much like GTA Online. Thanks to the sales of "Red Dead Redemption 2", and a strong second quarter performance, Take-Two raised their financial outlook for fiscal 2019, which ends on March 31.
