I have XBL and a HDTV, so which game is best in terms of gameplay, graphics and longevity (not too bothered about sound or story)?

CoD 3 has a far superior MP and better story and dialogue.

COD 3, while it does have better multiplayer than LP on the surface, it not a good game.  If you are buying for single player, this is not a good choice.  However, LP really depends on who is playing it whether or not it is liked.  I love it, but I can get past the cheezy dialogue and quirky camera (which you can change to a normal fixed one if you like).  I can't bring myself to recommend COD 3 as I am trying to sell it, so my pick would be Lost Planet.

I'd say Lost Planet for sure.  Call of Duty gets old fast.  It's nice to use mechs in multiplayer.

Well, Lost Planet can be beaten in 8 hours approx. and the online is quite fun. COD 3 is more challenging and the single player campaign is quite longer. The multiplayer is very good if you like WWII games. To decide you have to ask yourself this question: Did you like Battlefield 1942's MP or do you like the futuristic based MP better?

yes. Lost Planet is great. Best mechs ever, great bossfights, beautifull graphics and really fun online. CoD3 is great too. CoD2 is better people say, but i haven't played that one..

Lost Planet is really an underrated game. Though I haven't played CoD3, I have played CoD2, which I hear is exactly the same but with a different setting. LP's story is not as bad as people say as long as you pay attention to it; the graphics are beautiful (explosions particularily) and the gameplay is fun but challening. The boss fights were some of the hardest I've played yet. Online is a blast yet since you can mix it up with the mechs, and the levels are HUGE. Go with LP so spice up your game collection.

lost planet, cod3 is crap imo, and cod3 and cod2 are practically different games (two different devs). they feel nothing alike.

I would go with Lost Planet for the single player, a lot more enjoyable and challenging.
But if you want one for Multiplayer CoD 3 is your best choice

I think both are worth getting but if you can only get one right now get Lost Planet.

They are both good, but different games....COD3 is a must have for any COD fan...Lost Planet is another 360 graphical show case with decent single player and great MP.

I love COD3. Pretty much all I do in that game is play online.

Call of Duty 3, unless you want 3rd person inwhich case Gears of War is a better choice.

Call of duty 3 pretty fun a little harder to find ranked matches but its fun. There is a lostplanet demo you should download cause if your looking for graphics lost planets probably better. But I like Cod 3

I've got both, and agree, Lost Planet is a very under rated game. They are very different games. Lost planet if you want to concentrate

on the challenge of killing one gigantic alien at a time. If you like the war genre, and just want to charge forward kill the bad guys, and blow up

all their crap, than COD is for you.

Personally I enjoy playing COD. I get bored killing the bugs, and like the challenge of war games. It's a matter of preference when you have two

good games like these.
