Hey everyone,

I know this may seem old, but I just made this so people can compare and contrast of their ideas on each game.

Keep it clean, no flaming, and make sure you're only talking about the PS3 versions of games only.

For ex.: "I think Uncharted 2 had better graphics than Modern Warfare 2 by a longshot, and the gameplay is smoother"

Don't say: "Modern Warfare sucks, all it is is a piece of crap stuffed in a game case," when you have no reason and feel like being a fanboy.

Mods: If anything here is not allowed by rules, so be it and close this forum

I own both but to be Honest I really cant get into modern warfare 2 at all, The kill streak rewards make the multiplayer seem very arcadish, and the single player feels just bloody average after playing the Uncharted 2 single player.

uncharted was basically just epic, i no the multiplayer was a big hit with some people but i love it, its the most addicting games ive played yet, i beat mw2 and the story mad no sence to me, it seems like they worked the story around scenes they wanted to hav in the game and u cant have a good story if u build it around that, and the mp is so frustrating, its like no fun at all i cant believe its as popular as it is

Comparing them is silly if you ask me. VERY different games in many ways. If I had to choose one it would probably be...MW2 just for the multiplayer.

I have both but MW2 for Xbox. I think Uncharted's SP campaign blows MW2 out but MW2 has slightly better MP. Overall I think Uncharted is better.

SP:

U2- 10/10

MW-6/10

MP:

U2- 8/10

MW2-9/10

I like Uncharted 2 but then again I'm to biased when it come to War games as too many have been released and I find them boring I'm not really into FPS games. Uncharted 2 was though the best game I've bought in 2009 and it's the most fun.

Both were extremely enjoyable. The gunplay in MW2 is extremely satisfying and I love how smoothly the game runs. Uncharted 2 is in itself a great game, perfect combination of gameplay and storytelling.

UC2's singleplayer is far superior, MW2 i sstronger in the multiplayer aspect. Overall though I notice that both of them need to take care of some issues in the multiplayer, MW2's lagging like crazy, especially when someone not from a local reigon is playing. UC2 seemed much more stable during the beta testing, now I notice more glitches and lag issues than ever, it's as if it is going to MW2's footsteps.

I only have Uncharted 2. I considered buying MW2, but I decided I didn't want to spend $60 on pretty-much-only-multiplayer game. I've played it. It's not bad, but I'm definitely glad I didn't drop $60 on it.

I love how people just love to hate on something popular like MW2. MW2 is a pretty good game, it may not be the greatest in the world but to say "it is is a piece of crap stuffed in a game case" is an extreme exaggeration.

Both amazing games... I always knew Uncharted 2 was better than Modern Warfare 2, but after playing UC2 it was no doubt that it was better.

I love both games, but I can't really say equally. Uncharted 2 had a wicked story, smooth graphics, and climbing stuff and travelling. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a FPS, but the multiplayer is better hands down. The games are really hard to compare to each other. For an FPS CODMW2 is an amazing game, and for and adventure game Uncharted 2 is a really amazing game.

I own both, but I definitely prefer Uncharted 2 overall.

The campaign on MW2 was "ok" - rather short, bland story, but had some decent set pieces. The multiplayer is a love it or hate it kinda thing imo. I loved playing offline with my brother when he was visiting for Christmas doing Spec Ops and just me vs him in deathmatch kinda thing. I'm not a huge fan of the online part of MW2 which I'm sure some of you might think is weird (being as the game is boasted for it's great online play). It's just not very fun getting owned as soon as I spawn basically. I dunno - if I gave it more time, I'd get better and might like it more.

As far as Uncharted 2, it's somewhat longer than MW2 which is definitely a plus, not an incredibly original story, but very well told. Has a ton of great set pieces (the entire game is basically one memorable set piece after another). The train level is probably one of the most memorable moments in gaming I've experienced in quite some time. The multiplayer in UC2 has actually been a lot of fun to me. Sure, it's not extremely deep, but I spent a few hours with it earlier today, and I had a lot of fun. I'm not extremely good at it yet, but even so, I hold my own. What I really wish UC2 had was offline multiplayer - like Split screen. Yeah, graphics would probably need to be lowered somewhat, but it'd still be really fun. Or even being able to play through the entire campaign with a friend would be so fun, but they'd probably have to alter the level design to accommodate for an extra person. I'm HOPING Uncharted 3 will have some sorta split screen option.

Anyways, to summarize: I enjoy(ed) Uncharted 2 more than MW2, but both are great games.

Idk how this is even a comparison. UC2 actually has a single player mode that matters while MW2 is nothin but an online game first and a thrown together sad single player 2nd. Besides UC2s amazing story and gameplay it also has a multiplayer mode thats really well done, with its own smaller campaign modes, deathmatches. etc. To me theres no comparison what so ever.

I just have MW2, i plan on purchasing Uncharted 2 soon. I played MW2 a lot for a while but lately its dying down for me idk. Lately I just been playing it maybe 3 times a week at the most, finishing up GTA and AC2and just playing MLB and Madden.......

Its a good game, I gotta be honest I dont see myself going through the campaign again, at this point just waiting for some map packs and the other awesome games coming out this year!

MW2 was the same ol thing from the last one, not to mention a tacked on 5 hour campaign. UF2 at least had better graphics than the first one and one hell of a story. Not to mention ground breaking physics, first game to have a moving character on a moving object that was actually moving. Prior games had the whole background moving to give the illusion. So in short, UF2 was by far better.

I like Spec Ops a lot better than Uncharted 2's take on story missions.

They are just much more fun AND SPLITSCREEN

I don't understand how you can say that. Maybe MW2's online is more elaborate/better as far as how it was developed, but it's laggy online, and the bad part is it doesn't even matter how fast your connection you will still get into laggy games more often than not.
