Alone in The Dark vs. The Sinking City?

I posted this in The Insane Creators Guild, so I might as well post it here too, see if I get any responses.

I'm currently debating myself over which game to pick: The Sinking City or Alone in The Dark remake. Lately, I've listened a lot to narrations of the work of H.P Lovecraft, and I've gotten an ich for more of the whole horror-1920's style. I've read and watched reviews on both games, and they are pretty mixed. Some enjoy the detective work in Sinking City, while some find it tedious. Some think the shooting in Alone in The Dark is too barebone and basic, and others think it suits the game fine.

Has anyone played both games and might be willing to offer their opinions on this? I'm having a real hard time choosing which game to pick..
