This question is asked like every other day, butttttttt.

Um, the general consensus is:

Uncharted 2 = Best Singleplayer Campaign (decent length), decent multiplayer

MW2 = So-so Singleplayer Campaign (short as well), great multiplayer

So it really depends what you want the most.

Personally, I think Uncharted 2 is better on both fronts, but I've never been a huge fan of the multiplayer COD. :/

Thank you for your input, you make some great points, I am more into the multy player then the single player. I guess that means i should get MW2 beacause of the Multy player.

single player wise uncharted 2 ( decent online ) Mw2 single player has its moments buy 90% lame, ( good online) Modern warfare is kinda of newbie now. I think shot guns should not be a support weapon. Also uncharted 2 is ok online, not listen to people that say uncharted 2 requires "Skill" uncharted 2 is basicly gears of war online if you played it.

I'm so glad that i came here for information you guys have really helped me iron out what game i should get, here's what i've come up with.

I'm going to Buy Modern Warfare 2 and rent Uncharted 2.

My reasoning:

Multy player, I really think it extends the life of the game when after you beat it you can still continue to enjoy it for many many more hours.

I think this is the best way to go about it. I would rent them both but it really adds up, Its 8.99 to rent a game here in Canada,Ontario. 2 games after taxs would come almost $23 bones.

Well guys all your help was absolutely amazing. If there's any more info that you can give to help me out its greatly appreciated

Nooooo, you buy the great sp game and you replay it later on. While the mp game you'll ditch most likely once a better game comes along. Buy u2 and save up for bc2.

I have been a little confused over this, i have heard many people say they enjoy the multi player in Uncharted, so i'm going to hold of on buying Modern warfare 2 until after i play Uncharted 2. This way i can really have an idea if the multi player is better then Modern warfare 2. It also comes down to the style in which i like to play as well. I enjoyed the first Modern warfare's Multi player. I still think that i will end up with Modern warfare 2 but i just want to make the right choice. It will be awhile till i can afford another $70 dollar game .Darn auto industry , ya, i Used to work in the auto industry : ( .. ow well what can you do.

Uncharted 2 mp plays like a loose version of gears of war in which vertical combat is a factor. If you already have mw1 you may not want to get mw2 since they are very very similar (a lot of people even prefer the 1st one).

You just had to through Demon Souls in there didn't ya. LOL. That one i have been giving "the eye" to every time i see it. If i had the funds i would absolutely rent all the games first then buy the one i liked. Its to bad this gem will get swiped under the carpet because it looks like its another promising game. Im going to go and take a look at the reviews and see if its worth renting.

Demon Souls is a long game I'm over 15 hours in and I don't think I've made a dent in it yet.

If you loved CoD4 multiplayer then you'll MW2 multiplayer even more, all they did was improve on it in almost every aspect ( except for dual wielding shotty's ), but you just beat people by using that weapon against them.

I heard you would have an easier time chewing threw a brick wall then beating this game, Is it really as hard as Gamespot say's it is. (Not that i don't believe them)

It's more that if you make a mistake or don't have godlike powers of foresight that will cause you to die, rather then the game just being cheap. :P

Do your PS3 a favor and save it from the overrated trash that is MW2. Im sure it will be a LOT happier with Uncharted 2. Not to mention that you will also have a blast playing the game.

I just got back from BlockBuster and rented Uncharted 2, im playing it right now. So far the single player is amazing !!

I think im going to give a couple updates on what game i eventually settle on, just cause it seems that there's many others out there that are not sure which one to get.

The graphics on the train and how the game intertwines you into the environment is really something i have never experienced, so far Uncharted 2 is looking mighty fine. Great story ,it really pulls you in. Jake makes alot of funny comments eh..

I like both games a lot, but UC 2 single player is longer than MW2. CoD is usually known for it's multiplayer so if you prefer that I would get MW2.

It's not unbeatable hard! I'm not sure how old you are... but it's NES hard. Meaning it's challenging but once you learn how to play each level, you've got it... that and all the freaking rewards, leveling options, & most innovative use of online ever make this game awesome! B/c once you get past the challenge of the levels... it becomes INCREDIBLY addictive. I have to say... it does take like 2-3 hours before it really grips its hooks into you though, at least in my experience. But by the time you beat the 1st level... it'll probably be the only game you're thinking about, period!

Uncharted 2 has a better single player, but Modern Warfare 2 has a better multiplayer.

I would choose Modern Warfare 2, because the single player is still really good

Uncharted 2 for the win!

I just bought my copy yesterday and I'm having tons of fun

The multi-player will get you hooked and the story is fun and full of surprises

I still think Uncharted 2 is the best even after getting it from day of release I'm still playing it. As for Call of Duty I've never been a fan of the series as I like third person shooters better.

i wish i would of purchased u2 instead of mw2. the single player in mw2was beaten in 4.5 hours. and i dont get into the modern style of online it feels cheap. i mostly cant stand the spawn points in mw2 the worst ive ever encountered in any online shooter and ive played at least 100 over the last 13yrs.

Vanine_28

I got both, Uncharted 2 single player is real fun but its very short, completed in 5hours or so, and MW2 is waaay better online than uncharted 2

if you are looking for a great singleplayer game, go for Uncharted 2 because of graphics and such.

but if you are looking for Massive online play go for MW2 ;)

In My Opinion...

I am not a MP fan. I play online only CoD:WaW & MW2... I don't really like third person multiplayer games...
