I'm talking about Gears of War. You pay money just so you can play a 4 player online game, that doesn't have dedicated servers, so the host server has the advantage if you lag. Many Gears players already complained about this alot.

When you can have 32 player dedicated online servers with War Hawk, and other PS3 games for free?

Where do all your money towards XboxLIve go?

its not 4, and having something like 32 players in a match of gears of war would be extremely stupid. PDZ has 32 players with no lag! omg!

Hey look 50 player online! http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/deltaforceblackhawkdown/index.html?tag=tabs;summary
and look how good that turned out to be.

It didn't flop by everyone but Gamespot. Gamepot underrated it, and they overrated Gears.

But that doesn't matter, explain to my where all your money you paid for Xboxlive go?

1: Gears of War is 8 player online not 4. It's not a run and gun game. It's a team based shooter. 4v4 lets the player feel like a part of the team and makes action much more tense and casualties devastating.

2: It's not laggy unless you have a crappy connection, or you join a game with crappy connection (that's why it has those bars on the far right...to tell you wether the game has good connection or bad connection). Host advantage is not a big deal if you are in a game with good connection.

3: Resistance did Flop. Sorry. check Gamerankings

4: Gears of War won many awards for a reason...and it is AAA at gamerankings so it is not overatted. You're just angry and jealous.

5: Your life as a fanboy must be sad.

Host advantage is just a little annoying. I find that if the host gets u, then he would have if he didnt have the host.

Yeah, Gears is such an amazingly well designed game and it's fun...but the crappy online stability ruins is alot. I ask the same question. How can PSN be free and and lag-free, while XBL cost $50 and have issues like this. Maybe MS needs to make dedicated servers standard for all XBL games. I hope Gears 2 and Halo 3 has them :?.

um no.

id take vegas online over it. graw. even gears and its annoying host advantage. People bash shooters for being generic all the time especially the cows, what about resistance. generic as you can get. It was a good FPS. but nothing special.

PSN has a very small user base so it going easy on the PSN servers. Sony would haveplanned the servers before the PS3 release soSony probably planned on selling alotmoreconsoles and for more people to use the PSN. Thats why i think people dont have lag yet.

No one knows how well the PSN would handle the same amount of users as the 360.

i think im the xjet039 version of gears of war in sw. except i dont make threads.

i like how you said 4 player. proves you havent even played the game.

if you are going to complain about host advantage than host your own game. dont know why ppl are so afraid of fighting host. they do have slight advantage, but they can go down easily by playing smart. when i use to play a lot i got as many kills or more than the host even though the host was on the other team. i usually see ppl who arent good at gears whine and cry about the little things such as host advantage.

i seen ppl who had great connection played like they were the host. you should see the ppl who use fiber optic connection.

i find it funny how tc says he is a hermit just cause he has a icon of the longest journey and says he is. so obvious you are a cow. i hope you know that there are some ps3 games that uses p2p instead of servers.

I personally don't have hardly any lag, whether I'm playing on-line via my PC or XBOX360. It must be a crappy connection on your end. Of course you will have a lag every once and a while, whether it be on the PC or 360, unless you have a T1 all to yourself.

In Gears of War's case, this is true. I couldn't imagine there being more than that for a game such as Gears.

Answer my question and I'll stop.

hey troll. all online games lagg from time to time. i play games on pc online and they lagg. like most MMO's. becuase alot of people hittng the server at the same time. the reason the ps3 don't have much lagg is because people are not playing the ps3 online. look at games like WOW,FFX online,most FPS on pc. you have millions of people playing daily which is the reason why it laggs at time. not many people care for the online with sony except RFOM, and moterstorm.

GeOW has bad netcode, and is bug ridden.

While I hate XBL not having dedicated servers thats MSs problem, not Epics.

The game needs something other than just killing the other team, then winning as well as proper netcode that benefits the host, then gimps everyone else. Not to be glitch ridden and have more variety really.

If we're talking about content, the game feels really barren to me. *Shrug* But hey I haven't even got XBL at the moment and I probably won't for a while. Somebody hook me up with a free trial. ;D

[spoiler] I wish I was joking, is it can be free trials tiem now plz? [/spoiler]
