So it seems Gears of War 3 failed to defeat Uncharted 2 score...

Why people keep thinking these games are the same is beyond me. They both have 3rd person shooting/cover yes, but beyond that they play,look, and feel NOTHING alike! I wish people would realise that both these games are unique and not just the other systems version of themselves... :?

[QUOTE="mems_1224"]gears is better than uncharted.....razgriz_101

both are good but to be honest outside the shooting mechanic its like comparing apples and oranges.

i agree but if you are comparing what you get for $60 then gears offers a lot more than uncharted does. most people, like me aren't gonna play uncharted for multiplayer, they'll only ever play single player and be done with it. the main appeal of gears has always been multiplayer which gives it more value which in my eyes makes it better. i love both though, cant wait to play uncharted, the desert demo looked amazing

You're right. Once we have Marcus searching for some ancient jeweland Drake weilding a chainsaw, THEN both series can be compared. :P

Uncharted 2 came out two years ago and is a great game. Forza 4 and Gears 3 both have higher Metacritic scores than any PS3 game since UC2.

For the PS3 'exclusive' fanatics...that thought might cause a brain hemorrhage.

Gears of War 3 is a mature game for mature gamers such as myself. Gears of War 3 delivers the most visceral, brutal experience in gaming, while Uncharted 2/3 doesn't even have blood and gore. You play your T-rated babby game. I'll be hanging with the big boys playing Gears 3, okay, son?

At metacritic yes, but one has to remember that standards change overtime and reviews are not always a good way to judge a games quality simply because of the nature of the reviews.

Personally, Gears of War 1 was my least favorite game until I played Uncharted: Drake's Fortune demo (which is the worst experience I have ever had gamingwise). So I couldnt care less for either series.

what? :? LittlebigPlanet 2(92) and God of War 3(92) are both higher than Gears 3(91), and both = Forza 4(92) on metacritic.

God of War 3 has a 92/100 MC score, which is equal to Forza 4's score, and greater than Gears 3's score.

Whatever. They changed by one point since I looked at them two days ago. MY point is the whole 'exclusives' thing is trivial and SW is infatuated with it.

[QUOTE="ianuilliam"]

[QUOTE="Lexter45"] And how does that affect the Quality of the review :? Because IGN is more well known than me? If Justin Bieber says Kinectimals is the best game ever does that make it true ?Lexter45

No. Justin Bieber is not a game critic. If IGN or GS gives a game 9/10, they'll add that to the box or in ads, because those are industry respected outlets. If Justin Bieber, or Lexter 45, give a game 9/10, nobody cares, outside of Justing Bieber fanatics who want everything the Biebs likes, or Lexter 45.

So IGN giving the game 9/10 means the game is definitly 9/10 no doubt no questions asked and no one can think differently? Because that's what this Convo is about.

No, but it is a guage than your opinion or mine. And taking the average of MANY critics is better than that. If GS gives a game a 9, and MC gives it a 93, you don't have to agree. It can be a 3/10 game... to YOU. But when we as a group are comparing games, your opinion that its a 3/10 holds no more weight than Joe's opinion that its a 10/10. The discussion will be absolutely pointless unless we agree on ONE opinion, and for that, the average opinion of critics > one critic > Lexter45 or ianuilliam.

But that was my original argument against. Some guy said Gears 3 was Sub Par to Uncharted 2 because it has a lower MC score.

Well did anyone really expect Gears to beat it? 96 is a DAMN hard score to beat, and most high budget games would be lucky to break the 90 mark at all.

[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]Why do you use MC when the score is lower than Gamespot, but Gamespot when the score is lower than MC? StrongDeadlift
You are right. TC is a hippocrite. But that is not the point of the thread. The point of the thread is showing the clear and factual inferiority of Gears 3 to Uncharted 2. I know its hard, but sometimes you just have to learn to accept a sub-par experience. ;)

Factual inferiority of Gears 3 to Uncharted 2...uses metacritic, which is in itself a collection of opinions, as backing to argument...

Yeah...I think you need to look up the word "fact" in the dictionary because I don't think it means what you think it means.

Lemmings said that Gears of War 3 will be the best exclusive this gen, defeating Uncharted 2

Unfortunately in MC, Gears of War 3 only scored 91 while Uncharted 2 scored 96

And forza only scored 8.5 here

So after Gears of War 3 and Forza 4 failed to defeat Uncharted 2, is there any 360 exclusives that can defeat Uncharted 2? considering there's no 360 exclusives again this year

hey everybody look at me i like to use mc score for one game but not the other!

UC2 has a better score, more praise & more GOTY awards than any GOW title.GOW3 failed to beat a 2 yr old game. Its pretty sad. It was a failure before it was even released. UC3 will be another nail in the coffin

UC2 has a better score, more praise & more GOTY awards than any GOW title.GOW3 failed to beat a 2 yr old game. Its pretty sad. It was a failure before it was even released. UC3 will be another nail in the coffin
