I'm actually gonna go with WaW on this one. I think Gears' cover system in multiplayer is clunky, and the lag doesn't really help when numerous weapons are one shot kill. Campaign mode wise, World at War's is much more intense than Gears 2.

I really think you HAVE to play both either way.. you shouldn't miss out on either. But for a keeper I'd say WaW, and rent Gears 2 to blast through the campaign a couple times.

It might be prudent to rent both to see which one you like more overall.

if you have COD4 already, then get Gears 2, but none the less COD5 is also great.

If you didn't like Gears 1 then you probably won't like Gears 2. The game has changed a lot in terms of atmosphere and scale, but overall the game still plays very much like the first one.

Two quick reasons why you should buy Gears of War over COD WaW (at least first).

1.) Gears of War 2 is the better game. Period.

2.) COD 6 comes out next year and it's being made by Infinity Ward (which means everyone is going to jump ship from COD WaW because Infinity ward made COD 4) so the COD WaW community is unlikely to last too long.

i have gears 2 and i will tell you that the MP system and the way it works is far inferior to cod 4, since cod WAW is basically cod4, its safe to conclude that the MP in WAW is much better than in gears

To bring up Resistance 2 while someone is discussing Gears 2 is like bringing a hooker to church.

No it's not.

They all have the same game modes, only difference is gameplay.

Ans ones a Third person tactical shooter so yeah ...

COD isnt too dissimilar to R2
