rspec users - Feb 2012 - requests versus cucumber

For those of you who have used both rspec requests and cucumber, could you
summarize the main differences between the two?

Do they both serve the same purpose but with different implementation
styles or they really aren''t the same thing?

I havent'' used requests before, but I like the idea of being able to
view
both the ''request/behaviour'' and the code on the same page.
