<br>There's no doubt that John can handle himself. He's a strong character who has no problems using violence to get his way, and if he needs to remind somebody of that, he will. Sometimes, he does so with a side of humor, though that probably isn't how the character at the wrong end of his shotgun feels about it. John and Uncle don't always get along perfectly well, so it isn't really a surprise when John threatens Uncle with bodily harm when he's impatient with the old man.

The PC version here, thanks to a keyboard, does not have such issues, but instead decides to assign seemingly half the available keys to one action or another, causing a bit of confusion until the player gets used to picking options with G, R, F, E, or I on the fly depending on the situat<br>

Whether you're new to the Red Dead games or a lifelong fan, you're sure to appreciate the ten most hilarious things well-loved John Marston has said during his time in the Red Dead universe.
