Alan Wake or Red Dead Redemption?

[Reasonable]

I've noticed that people on this board like to short change Alan Wake. I can assure you, though Red Dead is fun, there are more things that annoy me about it than Alan Wake. Plus, this isn't really an apples to oranges comparison.

Tell that to the OP - he's the one asking for a choice between the two.  All people are saying is that (having played both - or at least you'd hope they have, I have) if they had to pick just one to buy they'd buy RDR first then Alan Wake later.
