addicing when it comes to multi player. Unlike Geow 2 multi player which is pretty much brken, unless you play Horde. the MP in goew 2 is so bad, that i returned it and traded it in for L4d. Ispent tons of hours on Halo 3 Mp and now R2 MP. so can we stop this Halo 3 or R2 has ok graphics. we all know.

I think they have great graphics. It's just haters who say the graphics are lame. And yes, they both have great multiplayer.

I thought both Halo and R2 were kind of generic. Nothing original about them. Spawn shoot. Spawn shoot. Spawn shoot.

Except, R2 runs dedicated servers. No lag. No host advantage. 32 v 32 matches. Thats sort of cool for a console game.

Gears was unique. Lots of cool ideas. Cool weapons. Nice visuals. It would have been a reason for me to keep my 360. It would have been one of the greatest games ever. Too bad the multiplayer is such a joke. Too bad epic and M$ are too stingy to run dedicated servers.

Resistance 2 looks pretty good IMO and so does Halo 3 both have lame campaign execution IMO but the Multiplayer for both are on point.

R2 graphics were real good, IMO...character models were detailed, envrioments HUGE, some great textures....Halo 3 on the other hand had horrible character detail but great environmental textures.

R2 actually has pretty damn good graphics, just not doing MP.

But you're correct, gameplay and fun factor far outweighs anything else concerning a game's worth.

i don't care about graphics in a game. yeah they had ok graphics. i have to say if u look at a game that is just released then look at a game that is released a couple of months when the 360 came out u will see a big difference in them.

To be honest, I didn't think R2 was anything special. I tried to like it but just ended up thinking it was "ok" at best.

R2 no lag = win for me because I have a poor connection

Seriously I put WaW online and it is just not playable sometimes, then I put R2 online and OMG I can even do headshots with a sniper :D

i think what ppl dont understand is, even though these 2 games dont have the Uncharted or geow graphics. these 2 games are huge and their multiplayer makes up for it.

I'm a lemming to the core and I personally think that Halo3's online is utter trash. Halo2 was far better and Halo: CE was incredible. Too bad Bungie seems to be back peddling on their MP aspect of the game seeing how that's really the ONLY reason to own a Halo game in the first place.

Both games have excellent graphics, Halo 3's visual style in particular is really something. Far better games than Gears of War 2 overall I'd say.

Well Resistance 2 is a bad game both in graphics and gameplay

But Halo 3 is one of the best games and has some of the best visuals

I'm sorry but Halo 3 is just on a higher level and a different league than Resistance 2, especially when it comes down to the multiplayer. I'm not even a Halo fanatic but the difference are major. With that said, I agree, both can be addicting, but only Halo 3 graphics were more consistant on the SP and MP, while the MP in Resistance 2 didn't look as good as its SP.

if R2 was such a bad game, does that mean GEOW 2 was a bad game also? since they both scred 9.0?

Not true, Insomniac stated they had to dumb down the graphics a bit to perform better online... so yeah, dumbed down graphics for no lag. Works for me.

Sorry but even the developers said there was a downgrade in the graphics department for the MP, so there would be room for lots of players with less lag. Also, I didn't keep Resistance 2 long enough to care about the maps, and I also have Halo 3 but I wouldn't be able to name the maps, heck I can't even name the maps for Gears of War 2. So just because I don't memorize the maps names at heart, doesn't mean I didn't play the game or have the game. :|

BLASPHEMY!!! TEH GRAPHXYXY R THE PWNZ!! I kind of agreed that games that are fun and addictive matters more than how many polygons are in a screen. As far as I know, Tetris is still considered the perfect game, and it doesn't need jaw-dropping graphics for people to appreciate it.

idk, Gears of War 2 is pretty fun. I own a PS3 and I can say that GeoW2 mp is fun and addictive to play with friends .... although im not that great, only played like 5 times. Fun Factor GeoW2 - 6/5 nope its not a typo, fun cause of blood and carnage R2 - 4/5 ,fun cause of massive amount of ppl and guns

R2 and Halo 3 are very addicting. They both have their graphics faults such as R2's environments can be downright ugly in some areas. However, R2 has amazing character models that are highly detailed. Halo 3 has character models that are just downright fugly. However, its environments are just gorgeous and are detailed and colorful.
