Gears 2.

Just prefer the gameplay, more depth, addictive and satisfying. R2 feels like every other FPS. Gears is in a league of its own.

it is hard to tell which one is better, as they both are so different. but anyways, gears has better characters and story, they both have great single player, they both have great traditional and non-traditional co-op, and resistance has better online, and they both have great graphics, soit basically comes down to gears story vs. resistance online

I would've never guessed... :roll:

Neither deserve Game of the Year. I don't see a sequel that doesn't drastically change the gameplay up will win, but hell, Grand Theft Auto IV might just do it. However, I personally think these two games don't have much of a chance. It'll probably be Metal Gear Solid IV. If not, Grand Theft Auto IV. If not... then I'm owned.

Gears 2 wins hands down. Resistance 2's single player has some bad level design and a story that feels completely rushed. And the co-op in Resistance 2 doesn't touch Horde mode in fun value. I still love Resistance 2, but it has a lot more problems, and feels like everything wasn't as polished as it could have been had Insomniac focused on delivering quality over quantity.

I have both games. I prefer Gears for the single player and Resistance for the multiplayer. The Co-Op and skirmish modes for Resistance are revolutionary.

Gears of War 2 is so good and better, if I had infinite amounts of money, I would buy everyone I know Gears of War 2 and even an Xbox 360 if they didn't have one yet, just to spread the joy around the world.

Imo if you believe that than R2 will win becuase you get a lot more replayability from Multiplayer than Single player and that is a fact for a shooter.

I'm not a fan of Resistance really, so I guess QoW wins by default. Socom beats them both though imo.

It depends which console you have.

For the consumer purchase, R2 has alot of playing time while Gears is 8 hour campaign.

Yeah, too many games this gen have either had slightly unfinished or broken multiplayer components. MG online, Socom, and now Gears 2... Epic should have done a mp beta release, like Halo 3, COD4 and CODWAW.

As we've seen with MGO, LBP, and Socom, beta's don't seem to do much good, sadly.

And some games that have been promised to have features in the game when it comes out doesn't even have it. For example co-op in cod4 never happened. Online co-op when the game is released LBP and Fable 2 they both got patches.

R2 easily beats Gears for online.

Story mode... both are fairly average, but perhaps gears wins.

Gameplay wise, i 'd say it is even

Graphically. well, it's interesting. Gears 2 has better graphics but, at the same time, R2 has 10x more stuff going on at the same time with a totally solid framerate. What took my breath away about R2 was that I had 8 people on my team firing at about 30+ enemies. these enemies were all returning fire and there was so much going on it boggled the mindl R2 really captures the chaos of war.

Funny all the reviews say that gears 2 has dozens of enemies on the screen, the game has epic scale,runs without frame dip,destructable enviroments and native 720p over 30fps unlike resistance 2 702p and 30fps.

not done with R2s campaign yet......

but the early portions of R2s campaign aren't exactly up to snuff IMO....visually its ok i guess. THE MP is ab last though. Loving that...need to get 7 other people around to do some coop...

As for Gears of War 2 the campaign was awesome, tons of fun...it had some flaws(some big, some small)....the coop is obviousaly awesome and HORDE is addicting....haven't touched the MP yet

I have a little over 3 hours into Gears 2 single player and almost 5 hours into Resistance 2. IMO Gears 2 is a 9.5 while Resistance 2 is only a 8.5. Everything is better in Gears, even right down to the way an ememy dies!
