I liked both - I actually bought Red Dead Redemption because of how much I liked GTA IV. I do think the multiplayer in Red Dead is much more advanced and enjoyable than in GTA IV (which I mostly just played single player) and I enjoyed the side challenges, both single and multiplayer, much more as well.

Since I liked both, I'm really looking forward to GTA V with the hopes that Rockstar applies those multiplayer and challenge improvements to that game.
