that is a tough one, what i did was ask myself which Genre do i like better, or which do you think will give you the most unique game experience between the two ,while also enjoy those very same unique game experience's.

now it's a hard choice because Alan Wake is a whole seperate Genre v's western's

it's going to comedown to which intrigues you more I think.

I voted for RDR because my nephew has already purchased Alan Wake, but also i am a big fan of spaghetti. western's

I see AW more as an unique experience and RDR more as a gta in the far west...

Both are great I believe.

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

Well I ordered Alan Wake because I was able to get it for only $20 brand new.

However, I'm more interested in Red Dead Redemption.

Personally I would've bought both,but after reading how short Alan Wake is,it's a no brainer to go with Red Dead.$60 on a short game is not a good idea.Splinter Cell was only 5 hours,God Of War was around 10 hrs and Alan Wake is about 12 hours.I have been playing Red Dead since Saturday and I only have been in between just 3 towns and there's a WHOLE LOT of ground to cover.So get your moneys worth and go Red.

Well Red Dead Redemption obviously has the better value. Which is quite normal for a sandbox game.
In the end you need to get both. I don't think there is much of a difference what to get first.
