I want an old-west shooter and these seem to be the two to choose from (and both happen to be only $7.99 used.)  All the reviews rate Gun a little higher than Red Dead but I can't shake my intuition to go for Red Dead.  It seems like it has more style and better environments than Gun based on the videos I've watched.  Anyone have any pros/cons for either game?

 Get GUN, its so much better than RDR. RDR is like Wild Wild West if it was a crappy game. Gun has some good, somewhat over the top characters, but still contains realism. And it has good sidequests, and great combat. Both are a little short, but GUN is so much better.

From what I've read the environments of Red Dead are somewhat confined but those of Gun that I've seen seem to be a little bland.  true?

Well in my opinion RDR has a better gameplay... Rockstar's GTA in the West! On the other hand, GUN has a way better story!!

RDR is better, it has better gameplay, story, boss fights, and a cool dueling system.

The multiplayer good also, you can get a lot of fun out of it. 

Gun is very average at best, the only thing Gun had over RDR was free roaming but lets be honest its so shallow it, there's no point even adding it, they should of put more time making the main missions better.

It really depends on what you like... RDR has a pretty good MP portion and gameplay...it's a little less realistic but has a more original story

Gun has better graphics, a good story, side missions and a better presentation.

It seems from what I've seen and read RDR has more stylistic presentation with an old t.v. western feel and screen filters to add to this presentation.  True?  RDR seems to have a duck-and-cover system and a more intense close-quarters combat feel in towns and such.  True?  Does Gun have a duck-and-cover system of any kind?  The vids I've seen of Gun seem to be just running and gunning in open environments.

Get Gun man. I am telling you. Gun is one of the best games I have ever played. It is awsome. The storyline is crazy good and the gameplay is awsome too. Do not pass this game up. Get Gun.
