RDR or Alan Wake

[tarheelblue89]

Need a new game.

Which one should I get?

[stankowalski]

Haven't played Alan Wake but RDR is fantastic. Especially if you're into westerns like me. It's got tons of replay value and the game is probably at least 2-3 times longer than Alan Wake (from what I've heard on the length of that game). I'd like to get AW but I'm a little bit put off about the shortness of it....I've heard it's about 10-12 hours. You can put that much time into RDR and not touch most of the main quest.

I'm not a big western guy at all.

I'm just looking for a game that has a nice story mode. Which I think I would get with RDR, seeing as how I love the GTA games.

Wake's story just looks so fuging cool. That's why I'm having trouble deciding.

[SOJA]

I haven't played either, but from what I've heard you should probably rent Alan Wake and buy RDR

[TerriblePizza]

Red Dead Redemption. Definitely.

It's GTA set in the early 1900's west. I like all the GTA games, but this one is my favorite Rockstar game. But that may be because I love westerns. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

If you want a decent game with an average story that will take you 8 hours to beat get Alan Wake.

So, yeah get RDR. AW is a good rent imo

i really wish i liked GTA...if i did, id buy this one.The premise appeals to me more than GTA. I bought GTA4 on the hype, and was immediately, non plus'd. Much like the 1st time i played SIMs after hearing the hype.

ill stick to BF2bc.. i only do one game at a time

[sunbunny]

I never play anything except the Sims 3. And I friggin love RDR, when i get to play. I'm not even a big western fan, but the game is awesome. First game I've actually ever played on xbox. My son is so mean.

Hands down, get Red Dead Redemption. Even if you're not a fan of Westerns or the GTA series. This game is so deep in dynamic that there are going to be plenty of reasons you'll love the game.

Alan Wake ended up being a bit of a bust, but should be at least rented once.

RDR all the way

[Guild]

Get RDR. Become a fan of westerns. Some of the vistas are amazing.

Alan Wake's story sucks. I'll sum it up for you. Nothing that you do really happened.

omg spoilers!!11!!1!

[Mesmer]

Kind of, but not really. Spoilers actually have to spoil something. In Alan Wake, there's nothing that's interesting enough there for spoilers to exist.
