Both games are looking great and shaping up better than their previous entrys, however, has big as Gears is, Killzone 3 will have some tough competition when it comes to best shooter.. From what we've seen of each... the little there is... Which are you most looking forward to?

gears 3 can be either one of the best tps this gen (if its anything like gears 1) but it could easily just be Gears of war 2..............I have hope but I'm weary.

gears 2 is the better "tps" of the two. Tighter gunplay and refined cover system.

Gears will have more advertising and more sales but Killzone will be the better game and my choice for 2011.

Should be Uncharted 3. Gotta keep the 3pshooters together. But doesn't matter. Vanquish is gonna keep the 3ps crown for quite a while.

Killzone 3 will be way better, i love TPS but more realistic ones not with oversized characters that move around like tanks.

A PS3/360 poll in a PS3 only forum

What do you expect, Gears 3 will barely get a 10% here, there has never been a 360/PS3poll here that 360 got more than 30% in anything, not a single one, zip

Gears 3 will sell more than Killzone 1-2-3 combined though and this is what matters in the end, actual gamers that love the series and buy the games, than scores and hype

I will buy Gears 3 and rent Killozne 3, Gears 3 is my most wanted shooter, Killzone 3 is one of the most indifferent and bland games for me in 2011

After playing Gears 2, its so hard to go back in play Gears 1. The game mechanics had a huge improvement. Gears 2 gets to much undeserves hate (although some is justified by the stupid lag... who ever was host had like a 5 second advantage)

Killzone 3 because:

  1. It looks like a big improvement over 2 (which was good but not great)
  2. Gears of war is boring as hell.
  3. Move controls > Dual Analog

unfortunately the community says otherwise, add on that there was more skill based in the first and its hard to argue for 2. 2 did campaign and horde which were great, multiplayer it was a big mess. shotgun randomness was ridiculous, l scoping did more damage wtf?, stopping power slowed down the game, and the blind hip fire lowered the skill gap alot. gears 2 had potential but its time came and pass when epic should've fixed mre.

KZ3 could easily be the best FPS of 2011 and one of the best of this gen, unless R3 turns out the way im hoping and sounding like it would be :D. Gears 3 on the other hand is likely to be trumped by U3 easily, especially afetr how much the standards have risen from U2

No, gears 2 had better features, but gears 1 gameplay wise mechanically was better and more competitive. It's like halo 2 and halo 3. Halo 2 gameplay mechanics was a million times better than 3, but 3 had better featuers in theater, forge, etc whereas gears 2's horde, campaign, was better. Only thing better multiplayer wise with 2 was the movement.

easily? we've yet to see a very great balance shooter this gen other than tf2 and halo 3 (I lold typing that, that's how bad console fpses are these days). And I mean almost completely balanced, developers these days don't understand it that well :s

imho killzone3 is taking a huge leap forward with their franchise adding 3d and move support. gears3 isnt doing anything new and looks like a straight up rehash to me, same ol same. killzone3 wins easily, shooter of the year imho

How about Uncharted 3 vs. Gears of War 3? After all, at least they're both third-person, cover-based shooting games with similar competitive multiplayer game sizes.

tha'ts like saying killzone 1 and 2 were the same when we know they clearly weren't. Basing it off on just looks is silly, watching how the mechanics of teh game function are what make a game great and poor. Killzone 2 and 1, at first glance peole would wonder what's the difference but when you play kz 2 you begin to understand it. assasination FTW

haha the one moving around is "romancing" the other and failing :P. But yes on topic, Gears 3 graphically looks like a decent step above 2, but other than that it doesnt seem much better to me.

uncharted vs gears would be the better comparison to make....and gears is a tps, killzone is a fps, killzone is coming out in the first half of 2011 gears is coming out in the second, the only competition that will occure is between the fans of the two franchises

Not so sure about Gears 3 online... playing as so many different types of characters might just piss people off, i won't be playign it online unless Live suddenly becomes free but i doubt it... KZ3 looks amazing but in terms of sales and hype Gears 3 already has the victory, in terms of quality and graphics i'd say a close tie but it all lies down to gameplay and the SP to me so i'd have to put it to Gears 3 as i like the style of it and the story is pretty great. Still KZ3 will definitely hold it's own and be a damn good game by the looks of it.

No it would not, there is no poll here that 360 would get more than 30%, not a single one has scored more than that so far, at least i have not seen any

PS3 always gets 70%+, it is just that most people here only have a PS3, and is obvious would vote for it in every poll

I personally don't see the appeal towards Killzone. It looks like a very decent game, but I'm just not seeing much of any differences between it and other shooters. I will say that the apparent weight of the guns and whatnot makes the game feel more intense, though.

Grovilis

To be fair, you could make that generalization towards any game with any genre. For example, I could say Gears of War 3 looks like any other Third Person Shooter with a cover system.

Gears of War 3 and what else? Enjoy your 2011. Wort wort wort!

..or should I say?

Port port port?

For that matter, why are we comparing an FPS to a TPS anyway?

no they aren't competing. uncharted 3 will do that. releases around the same time as gears and is the best looking series the ps3 has. not too mention that it is the closest thing on the ps3 to a tps like gears.

Doubtful , still dont see a game on the 360 that beatas Uc2 so I doubt its gonna beat KZ3 . The 360 simply doesnt have the horsepower.
