Get a free $10 Xbox Live gift card with ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ at Walmart for less than $50
Love cowboys? What about video games? Have someone on your gift list who loves both of those things? Then you’ll want to take advantage of this deal at Walmart, which gets you a copy of Red Dead Redemption 2 for Xbox One, plus a $10 Xbox One gift card for less than $50.
We’re going to hit you with some truth: the Old West was NOT fun. Rife with bandits, corruption, dangerous wildlife, various diseases, and much more, it was a challenging time to be alive for sure. Movies, TV shows, and especially video games don’t make it seem that way though. On screen, the Old West looks fun.
Set in 1899, the Western-themed video game Red Dead Redemption 2 is easily one of the best games this year. It allows you to experience the Old West in all its glory — without any of the risks. Here’s what Mashable’s Adam Rosenberg had to say in his review of the game in October: Read more…

‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ gets blackjack wrong, but it’s a fixable problem
Video games suck at blackjack.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a convenient target, being the latest and most high-profile offender. But video game blackjack hasn’t ever been done right in my recollection. And it’s because every game gets a central component wrong: The key to blackjack, the thing that makes it interesting, is the betting. Not the rules.
So let’s talk first about those rules, the absolute basics of blackjack. How each card works, what the goal is, how a typical hand flows.
Blackjack basics
The objective in blackjack is to get a set of cards whose sum is 21. Less than that is OK. More than that is a bust — a lost hand.
