I didn't think GTA IV was absolute garbage, in fact I thought 'twas pretty damn good. But Red Dead Redemption is still way better.
GTA IV's setting is dull and uninteresting, whereas RDR's setting is quite the opposite.
Riding the horses is a blast.
Based on my experience, Red Dead Redemption's multiplayer is more balanced than GTA IV's, and not to mention, more fun.
