Same for me, but with Red Dead.Derek_the_Dodo said:
I just felt more immersed with it and the story of Red Dead is fantastically compelling right up to it's tear jerker ending. However, GTA 4 is still a great game and would absolutely recommend to all.
Really, overall, just a huge approval to Rockstar for making great games
GTA IV bore me beyond words. Everything about it is boring. The story, the gameplay, the music, the physics. The physics engine that's supposed to be realistic is actually idiotic. It's all fine when NPC's are using it, but when you implement it so poorly in the main character it's frustrating. Niko walks like a barrel full of rocks. And the game doesn't offer anything new anyway. Older GTA games are far more superior to GTA IV.
Then you have Red Dead Redemption. The game is simply brilliant. Go buy it.

Both games have pretty exceptional storylines, with diverse and interesting characters. I'd opine that RDR's story was better but the gameplay in GTA 4 simply has a lot more on offer. RDR's setting works for it but it also severly limits the amount of things that you can do, which is kind of a kicker for a sandbox. So I'd go with GTA 4.
You need a 'neither' option.
RDR was okay, and I hated GTA IV to death. Saints Row is by far the better sandbox game.

I don't appreciate this little game you're playing despite me voting (RDR). I feel you didn't like RDR and will later explain why GTA4 is better and why RDR is overrated, etc. and how we as gamers are just "insert term here". However, the answer is simple. Red Dead is just a better game that is far more enjoyable. The point of games are fun and Red Dead is just more fun.MoNKeyYy said:
GTA is the biggest pile of turd ever to come from rockstar. It has little in the way of story and gameplay, the characters are fun and there are fun bits but the missions are so dull. "Walk here, shoot this, run away," Red deads GP is like that but the story and characters are actually interesting and there's a sense of purpose to all the missions.
I've tried a few times to complete GTA4, but after a short while, I just realise I'm not having any fun. Shooting bad-guys in apartments is not fun, following bad guys is definitely not fun, going out with friends is not fun. So what's left?
In Red Dead Redemption however shooting bad-guys actually was fun (I'm not exactly sure why), and some of the mini-games were actually fun too. The random encounter things were usually interesting, and I actually cared about the characters in the plot. If it's not obvious, I went with Red Dead. To me it's simply more fun.
