DLC #39 - Red Dead Redemption Legends and Killers

Become a Legend...
I can't really say a bad word about the Red Dead Redemption Multiplayer, and the steady flow of post-game DLC kept on adding to the content in superb ways.                                                                        
I still maintain that the Liars and the Cheats pack is the pick of the RDR DLC for me personally, but the Legends and Killers is a worthy addition and brings a number of fun gameplay additions to the fray.

The tomahawk is fun to use (at least in free roam, but you'll most likely get torn to shreds in competitive MP...) and there's a nice emphasis on the Tomahawk with the trophies too, including snagging a kill off someone from 35 yards and a set of single player ambient challenges to muscle through.                                                                                                                                                      
A host of skins are also available from the PS2 classic, Red Dead Revolver, and again, the new skins are nicely complimented by the trophies, with bronze awards for obtaining 25 kills with Pig Josh's dynamite and Red's dead eye ability.                                                                                                        
The trophies in general are all nicely varied, but some seem very thrown in....Where does the relevance of getting 3 kills with knives come from? Or fighting back from 2-0 down to win a game of Hold your Own? These particular trophies in the pack can be somewhat frustrating to try and achieve, but not really enough to numb the experience too badly.                                                                             
Still, there is alot of fun to be had in this pack, and the Red Dead Redemption DLC in general.
