So from what I've gathered, the Gears franchise is going downhill (9.6 -> 9.0), and the Uncharted franchise had great improvement from the first game to the second game? I don't think you realize the significance of those scores. You can't just say that "Uncharted 1 was only an 8.0 therefore Gears is a better franchise". You also have to factor in that huge amount of improvement from 1 to 2. So I kind of fail to see the point that you're trying to make. Also, lolsales

In addition, check the aggregate metacritic reviews and look how his weak argument holds up lol

[QUOTE="momentum_god"][QUOTE="timmy00"]Who can with a title like that?

Fine then. I won't be lazy and actually read whatever you wrote.

"With the whole Gears 3 vs Uncharted 3 multiplayer thing people have forgotten about the gameplay, which uncharted 3 will most likely stomp gears in" That's up to the person taste TC.

"gears is pretty much still just cover based shooting and nothing else" What's wrong with that?

"Uncharted has improved the platforming" um cool?

"has destroyable enviroments," Again cool. It's not going to make the game magically better though.

"melee combat better " What's wrong with Gears?

"so yeah who cares which one looks slightly better in multiplayer or how much grass they have?" Lemmings and cows.

Noe of those will make Uncharted magically better. It will come down to the single player and Multiplayer. Who are you to decide what game will be better.

timmy00

Did I say something was wrong with that, and who said magically lol, Uncharted has covered based shooting just as good as gears and all that other stuff and the story will be better for SP too (don't thats an opinion that one on me everyone knows it) Uncharted 3 will obviously be the better game I really don't see how you can deny it, and I'm not saying people can't like gears better, but it doesn't make it a better game, and I'm capable of being objective that's why I am fit to decide lol you haven't really pointed anything out that discredits anything I said you are just pretending it doesn't matter when it does

*sigh*

There's no point in arguing/debating when a person think like that.

Yeah, just move on and ignore.

oh so we use metacritic now? doesn't change the fact here on gamespot one series has a higher scoring average then the other, and one has a higher amount of sales then the other. Both methods of proving the TC wrong.

[QUOTE="savagetwinkie"]gears doesn't need it, its an action game, that focuses on small but tight battles, you could add all those features that UC2 has to it but its not going to compliment what gears does at all.momentum_god

Something tells me you are memorized by gears gore and not focusing on the gameplay

5 people per team, extremely small levels, very focused action and tons of fun with friends, the team sizes make it easy to work with eveyryone, it might be a gory game but it was always extremely tight fights and very intense matches. I don't understand why you don't get this, they aren't trying to make a online platformer/shooter, i don't see UC3 as being funner then gears because i imagine the parts of UC3 I'll love will play out more like a gears match.

Sales prove nothing, and while we are on the GS forums, if we are going to be realistic here, it would be smart to take all reviews into account ;).

I played the HELL out of uncharted 2 and it was definitely a great game but it's cover based shooting was not nearly as good as gears was. Have you played Gears before? It wasn't just shoot, move, shoot move, you could decide how to approach a situation, how to take out your enemies or which route to go. It's executions, grabbing enemies as meat shields, it's deployable cover, grenade tagging, sniping, tagging enemies with explosive arrows, it literally had TONS of ways to go about killing.


Not only that but you could co-op the entire campaign. The uncharted series is great but as a stand alone straight up action game it doesn't hold a candle to gears in my opinion.XileLord

Think you are more into the gore then the gameplay

um Sales mean quite alot actually.... A good game ususally sells alot any unusual trends can be chalked up to the law of unintended consquences otherwise Sales still mean people like that game and therefor purchased it.

He made a statement about two games that aren't out yet. If you want to base this argument on past games, we have Uncharted 2 which delivered one of the best single player campaigns out of any game this generation (most would argue top 5 at least). Most who have played both Gears of War 2 and Uncharted 2 would agree with me that Uncharted 2 had the better single player campaign overall. Then it had a solid multiplayer which was introduced for the first time into the Uncharted series and actually was fun.

Gears 3 feels so much like Gears 1. The MP just hasn't changed. Prepare to be outclassed if you don't get your Gnasher skills down. With the new details of UC3 multplayer I'm way more hyped for that than Gears 3.

And averages mean nothing, if we're going to judge a sequel before it is released we should look at the differences in score between the games before them.

Call of Duty has a higher average than Gears. That COMPLETELY disproves the higher average= better game.

and gears does it better, its focused on that type of style of play, it has maps designed around making it work, its better at what it sets out to achieve...

Except thats user opinion and only user opinion and I do love the fact that you some how seem to know the very thoughts and opinions of every one else enough to say every one else will agree with me.
Being a lemming I found Gears 2's single player superior. Doesn't change the fact that He is basing his argument on gameplay elements that have existed since the games first started therefor his argument is that since uncharted as a series has superior gameplay and the like and because uncharted 3 improves upon that superiority that means it will stomp gears 3.
In reality Uncharted 1 and 2 maintain a lower average of score therefor maintain inferiority when compared to gears of war as a series.
So Uncharted series+game reviews=lower average scores+Uncharted series+sales=lower sales=Inferior series to gears of war which has higher average score at gamespot AND metacritic as well as higher sales. More people enjoyed gears of war as a series...

Sure UC might have more variety of gameplaying styles. But the core gameplay of Geow destroys UC's basic shooting gameplay. They're both equally good.

I love you man you like most others come up with the same argument that proves nothing.

Because these few things happen it must mean the entire argument is wrong.
The sky is blue...No some days when the sun sets it has red hues therefor the sky isn't blue therefor your wrong that is the best analogy to it because at some point sales are wrong that must mean they are always wrong no matter what.

by the way COD is better then battlefield, and Wii sports was included free with the Wii in quite a few countries.

[QUOTE="momentum_god"]

With the whole Gears 3 vs Uncharted 3 multiplayer thing people have forgotten about the gameplay, which uncharted 3 will most likely stomp gears in, gears is pretty much still just cover based shooting and nothing else Uncharted has improved the platforming, has destroyable enviroments, melee combat better ect. ect. so yeah who cares which one looks slightly better in multiplayer or how much grass they have?

momentum_god

Oh, hav eyou played through both of them to know this or is this an assumption based off the previous two games which has no guaruntee that the same will happen again?

How the hell would destroyable environments be an assumption based on uncharted 2 when it didn't have it? Did you read it or just quote it?

Yes, scripted destroyable environments, and melee fighting (ive never seen that in a game before) means automatically the better game... to hell with story, acting, graphics, music, sound effects, ... you know, all those game features. Perhaps you're jumping to conclusions?

Ok, so at times a game selling a ton more than another may not mean that it is better is what you just admitted. Could this not be the case here as well? I am not saying sales are NEVER higher for a better game. I am saying they don't prove anything.

[QUOTE="momentum_god"][QUOTE="Phazevariance"] Oh, hav eyou played through both of them to know this or is this an assumption based off the previous two games which has no guaruntee that the same will happen again?

Phazevariance

How the hell would destroyable environments be an assumption based on uncharted 2 when it didn't have it? Did you read it or just quote it?

Yes, scripted destroyable environments, and melee fighting (ive never seen that in a game before) means automatically the better game... to hell with story, acting, graphics, music, sound effects, ... you know, all those game features. Perhaps you're jumping to conclusions?

All those things you listed don't effect gameplay...

I love how you are arguing with everyone but me lol anyways

Uncharted via metacritic 88

Uncharted 2 via metacritic 96

Gears of war via metacritic 94

Gears of war 2 via metacritic 93

Gears of war going downhill, Uncharted seeing massive improvements, Uncharted 3 will be better then Uncharted 2, Gears 3 will be slightly worse then Gears 2, based on scores which you swear by

:lol: dude I feel ya man I know its shocking that Gears is a better series then uncharted but the proof is in the pudding making up rules to make your self come out on top doesn't change that fact. Uncharted has a lower average score as a series and lower sales world wide then gears of war series more people played and enjoyed gears of war series over the uncharted series even amongst Professional reviewers.

Me too, he hasn't responded to either of my posts and I thought I brought up a fair point. :(

you aren't being replied too because you aren't bringing up any new arguments that someone else hasn't in the thread the posts made by me successfully debunk your points. Just face it uncharted as a series has a lower average every where and lower sales then Gears of war series.

[QUOTE="momentum_god"] Did I say something was wrong with that, and who said magically lol, Uncharted has covered based shooting just as good as gears and all that other stuff and the story will be better for SP too (don't thats an opinion that one on me everyone knows it) Uncharted 3 will obviously be the better game I really don't see how you can deny it, and I'm not saying people can't like gears better, but it doesn't make it a better game, and I'm capable of being objective that's why I am fit to decide lol you haven't really pointed anything out that discredits anything I said you are just pretending it doesn't matter when it doesGilgamane

*sigh*

There's no point in arguing/debating when a person think like that.

Yeah, just move on and ignore.

There isn't much point in arguing when a person have a mentality like that. However it seems this thread is heading to a new, interesting direction. :)

[QUOTE="mD-"][QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"] oh so we use metacritic now? doesn't change the fact here on gamespot one series has a higher scoring average then the other, and one has a higher amount of sales then the other. Both methods of proving the TC wrong.WilliamRLBaker

He made a statement about two games that aren't out yet. If you want to base this argument on past games, we have Uncharted 2 which delivered one of the best single player campaigns out of any game this generation (most would argue top 5 at least). Most who have played both Gears of War 2 and Uncharted 2 would agree with me that Uncharted 2 had the better single player campaign overall. Then it had a solid multiplayer which was introduced for the first time into the Uncharted series and actually was fun.

Except thats user opinion and only user opinion and I do love the fact that you some how seem to know the very thoughts and opinions of every one else enough to say every one else will agree with me.
Being a lemming I found Gears 2's single player superior. Doesn't change the fact that He is basing his argument on gameplay elements that have existed since the games first started therefor his argument is that since uncharted as a series has superior gameplay and the like and because uncharted 3 improves upon that superiority that means it will stomp gears 3.
In reality Uncharted 1 and 2 maintain a lower average of score therefor maintain inferiority when compared to gears of war as a series.
So Uncharted series+game reviews=lower average scores+Uncharted series+sales=lower sales=Inferior series to gears of war which has higher average score at gamespot AND metacritic as well as higher sales. More people enjoyed gears of war as a series...

Did you really think that Gears of War 2 campaign was better? Man, can't even give a PS3 game a little credit where it outshines pretty much every game in its genre. Uncharted 3 could be crowned the best game ever by every review publication and it wouldn't change your opinion about the series because it's:

1) A PS3 exclusive

2) Will likely sell less than Gears of War 3

A lot of those people who have enjoyed Gears of War probably don't know or care for Uncharted because they don't constantly look for information on the game and it's on the PS3, which is less popular in the US and the US is the main region that is upsessed with shooters.

I love you man you like most others come up with the same argument that proves nothing.

Because these few things happen it must mean the entire argument is wrong.
The sky is blue...No some days when the sun sets it has red hues therefor the sky isn't blue therefor your wrong that is the best analogy to it because at some point sales are wrong that must mean they are always wrong no matter what.

by the way COD is better then battlefield, and Wii sports was included free with the Wii in quite a few countries.WilliamRLBaker
I think with that your own argument backfires on you. Who are you to decide that sales equal quality instead of defining quality by the general consensus of the gaming world? Unless you were to do a rigorous study comparing average review scores and overall critique for a game, and that game's sales, you have no right to assume anything. CoD is better than Battlefield based off of what standard, what decision, what reason? And why is it that games that sold a lot but aren't considered to be high quality need some form of "excuse" so that they fit into your ideas and ways of thinking, when in reality is may be the other way around and Gears selling more may not be an indicator that it is of a higher quality than Uncharted?

Sure UC might have more variety of gameplaying styles. But the core gameplay of Geow destroys UC's basic shooting gameplay. They're both equally good.

But Uncharted 3 will be massively better then Gears 3 and make the Uncharted series better then the Gears by "professional" review scores, Uncharted series is already better according to most people

I am not a fanboy of any sort, but this lemming has always got on my nerves. He always posts in such condescending ways as if he knows the truth about everything, as if everything Ps3 is lesser in quality to that of the average 360 game, and he always has baseless and unstructured opinions. If someone manages to outsmart him or god forbid prove him wrong, he will simply just ignore you. I don't hate the guy, but he is always bashing the PS3, and I find it to be humorous in most cases, but sometimes he just pushes that one button.

I just looked at the user scores of Gears and they aren't that great, they are good of course but not that great, so I'd say gears is so praised because of MSes marketing

I'll leave the graphics debate for everyone else right now.

My instincts are telling me that U3 will be the better game overall. I love both games, but from what I've seen, U3 is doing so much more. When you combine that with ND's ambition to top themselves, their goal to have the "premiere multiplayer game", along with the layer of polish they lather onto their games, I can't help but to think otherwise.
