Your sig is...weird.

As for the online, I have to go with Gears of War. Sure Resistance: Fall of Man is crazy and awesome, but Gears of War is more tactical and team-based, which is what I like.

I prefer Gears as well; more team-based strategy, which is what makes online gaming fun for me.

This isn't even debatable....RFOM is free to play, has more players, bigger environments, better weapons, and zero lag(with headsets).

I have not played R:FOM but comparing a tactical third person shooters online experience to a mass battle first person shooters online experience is quite difficult. Seeing as how they differ incredibly. One focuses on using cover and strategy to eliminate your opponents and the other, I assume, requires only skill and precision in aiming and strafing.

The problem with Gears is the horrible host advantage. Most people always try to play on the Host's side because of it. And the shotgun is so random; players can just roll around and shoot, it takes no skill. Having said that, I have a blast playing on-line. The use of cover and tactics is very rewarding. There are few games that can compete with its unique on-line experiece.

Haven't played Resistance, though it appears to be pretty generic.

RFOM has the weapons,more players, no lag even with 36 players from USA/Europe playing together and more types of matches. GOW has more maps that's all = RFOM wins

Either way both are trying to do completely different things you can compare them.

Yes, but not where it is needed. In a death match I sometimes found myself lasting about 5 seconds because the map was so small, e.g. The Mall.

And in the big levels its only for like capture the flag, and 16 players; I sometimes felt like I was playing on my own.

Hmmm.... thats maybe because you suck at it

Andyou can adjust it for how many can people play on each map.

that just shows how mature cows are.

i've never played RFOM b4 but huge ass maps arent always good. Look at how balanced the maps are in CS, gears, and halo then look at games like BF. also having a crapload of guns aren't always good look at how many guns in cs then look at how many ppl use other guns other than deagle, ak, m4, awp, mp5.

and gears is obviously more balanced look at how many leagues there are for gears, TWL, Cal, GB, MLG
RFOM .........
