Gears Of War vs Uncharted - Sales and Critical Acclaim

Time to settle this; Sales

It had been announced that Gears of War (1-Judgement) had sold more than 22 million copies on January 2014.(http://www.craveonline.com.au/gaming/articles/636667-gears-of-war-series-surpasses-22-million-units-sold)

It's been a year and 5 months since the last update, so it's reasonable to assume Gears 1, 2, 3 and Judgement sold at least a 800,000 - 1 Million more copies combined. Especially with the revival news by The Coalition and Microsoft for the X1.

Uncharted (1-3) had HIT 21 million copies as of June 2015, it didn't say more than, said HIT, so as of that exact moment; 21 million copies were sold. (http://gamingbolt.com/sales-of-uncharted-series-hit-21-million)

Unlike Gears which was likely hovering at 22.3-22.5 million copies sold, key word: it said MORE THAN.

Add the one million copies sold by Uncharted Golden Abyss (http://www.vgchartz.com/article/251259/top-10-in-sales-playstation-vita-2013-update-uncharted-golden-abyss/) A LANCH TITLE (likely bundled with the handheld and an only option for early buyers, sales were forced). Puts Uncharted at 22 Million sales but Gears still has a year and 5 months head start on Uncharted, so IT'S SOLD MORE. FACT

Current prediction: Gears (Gears 1 to Judgement) at 23.5 Million and Uncharted (UC 1 to Golden Abyss) at 22.5 Million.

WINNER OF SALES: GEARS OF WAR

Critical Acclaim of the overall franchises can be measured by adding up the metascores of each and calculating the average, as I'm going to do.

Gears 1 has a metascore of 94 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/gears-of-war)

Gears 2 has a metascore of 93 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/gears-of-war-2)

Gears 3 has a metascore of 91 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/gears-of-war-3)

Gears Judgement has a metascore of 79 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/gears-of-war-judgment)

9.4 + 9.3 + 9.1 + 7.9 = 35.7 divided by 4 = 8.925 (average score of the Gears franchise)

To Uncharted;

UC 1 had a metascore of 88 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/uncharted-drakes-fortune)

UC 2 had a metascore of 96 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/uncharted-2-among-thieves)

UC 3 had a metascore of 92 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/uncharted-3-drakes-deception)

UC: GA had a metascore of 80 (http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-vita/uncharted-golden-abyss)

8.8 + 9.6 + 9.2 + 8.0 = 35.6 divided by 4 = 8.900 (average score of the Uncharted franchise)

WINNER OF CRITICAL ACCLAIM = GEARS OF WAR (8.925 IS MORE THAN 8.900)

CONCLUSION, GEARS BEATS UNCHARTED. THAT'S THAT, COLD HARD FACTS, DEAL WITH IT.

It's not reasonable to think it sold 1m copies more.

And why a new thread was needed?

You have a thread on this topic already. You don't need to make a new one.

EDIT: Okay, this is your Gears v Uncharted thread now. Keep it here.

Thanks, charizard.

Well, the facts are there. Hopefully PS4 fanboys will stop proclaiming Uncharted as the best and Gears as irrelevant, Gears as it stands has sold more and has a better overall metascore (despite the "6/10" Judgement lol).

Better luck next time Uncharted, maybe you could beat something like Voodoo Vince to show you still got some fight in you. lol

Dat butthurt rebuttal thread. Weren't you already owned in your previous thread?

Gears wins, facts are there. You blind?

Someone needs to let go. Gears just isn't what it used to be.

You're still butthurt lol.

Why do you guys refuse facts? Gears is better than Uncharted, sales and review-wise.

Uncharted 1-3 + GA on gamerankings 89.635

GeOW 1-2-3 + Judgement on gamerankings 89.04

uncharted has a top 5 GOAT.

You're getting a little bit too defensive, TC.

Well, the above facts state that Uncharted > Gears of War. /thread

Metascore is much more reliable than gamerankings. Gears wins.

Source?

Watch as he pulls some random source or numbers out of his asshole.

Where's your sources? I provided links and calculations in my post. Am I just suppose to take your word for it? Liar

Gears wins.

so that means on average, each of UC's major console releases sold more compared to Gears of War's?

http://www.gamespot.com/forums/system-wars-314159282/metacritic-or-gamerankings-27075384/

Even your own Gamespot prefers Metacritic. MC also counts way more reviews.

Gears wins.

What an idiot.

89.635 > 89.04 so UC>GeOW

It'd be even lower if we counted the PC release of the first Gears,which is sitting at 87.07 http://www.gamerankings.com/pc/942000-gears-of-war/index.html

.025 or .595 victories, this is what you are all going to bat for?

Metacritic >>>>>>>> GameWankings

Gears Sales >>>>>>>> Uncharted Sales

Gears wins.

@jg4xchamp: jg4xchamp likes Gears better and he's one of the better posters. Gears wins again.

Uncharted 2 > Gears of War 1 > Gears of War 3 > Uncharted 1 > Gears of War 2 (after Horde got stale) > Golden Abyss > Uncharted 3.

Definitive order.

I like Uncharted 2 as the best of the bunch.

Appreciate the troll swag though.

so the differences are very slight.

Single-player: Uncharted > GeOW

Multi-player: GeOW > Uncharted

Gears wins.

Care to enlighten us on that part?

You can't disagree with him, you just lost the honor of being one of being the better posters when you said that. Too bad, too sad.

And Halo has sold 24+ million more than both franchises combined, I fail to see the relevance either of these games have with each other or what comparing sales figures accomplishes...

5 years old thread

lel

One of the better is incorrect anyway. Objectively best. A #truthfact.

@jg4xchamp: Would you rather play UC 2 three times over or Gears 1-3.

@cinematicgalore
Are we talking just the single player? Watching a bunch of terrible Asylum flicks is better than running the GeOW 1-3 storylines.

Uncharted 2 three times over. I value my games on my ability to replay them, if I go for a second go, and I don't want to play it anymore I call that game a one and done, and that's usually grounds for me arguing the game isn't great, but merely good (bad games obviously don't get a replay).

None of the Gears campaigns I would want to give another go, except maybe 1 to see how I feel about it, but 60 dollars for one remaster? No thank you.

Would I rather replay UC2 three times back to back to back vs Gears multiplayer is a different story.

^Hope this guy gets banned for trying to use ass kissing as an argument for Gears.

@jg4xchamp: The remaster is $40.

Uncharted wins all day, everyday. Gears hasnt been at the forefront of its genre since 2006. Is it a bad game? no. Can it compete with Uncharted?

Look at that fake laughter at the end of your post. Gears 4 had an abysmal showing at E3, the trailer was pitch black, the scripted scenes somehow managed to be boring and the gameplay looked clunky. Meanwhile UC4 demo was some of the most amazing gaming sequence seen in recent time.

I genuinely tried to like the gears 4 demo showing...but i couldnt see shit and what I saw looked tired mostly.

Uncharted 2 >>> Gears series.

What were you saying ? Oh you'd rather not talk about that Gears 4 showing? Don't blame ya.

Gears 1 = 94

Gears 2 = 93

Gears 3 = 91

Gears Judgement = 79

Average = 89.25

to

Uncharted 1 = 88

Uncharted 2 = 96

Uncharted 3 = 92

Average = 92

GLAD WE COULD CLEAR THAT UNCHARTED IS THE BETTER FRANCHISE AND HAS THE BEST GAME OF BOTH.

Keep trying to use fake scores, vita games and card games, it clearly doesn't show desperation.

there is quite the backtracking on your post

a. you say gears 1-3 and uncharted 1-3 (which by itself is bullshit because judgement was released togethee with the rest for xbox 360 and developed by epic), then proceed to mention golden abyss (which is a psp game and not related with naughty dogs.

b. you say gears 1 >>>> uncharted series, i don't think you know what > means, how can a 94 be > to 96? u2 has 96, that alone destroys your "argument"
