Im in a mix between playing either one of these games and devoting my time towards a game online. Im in between a FPS and third person shooter and by the time your reading this your probably already got it narrowed down. Its either CoD WaW(Call of Duty World at War) or GoW 2(Gears of War 2) Some things that been plaguing this decision were: My friends and I'm talking around 7-8 that I grew up with all Play CoD, quite frequently too. Ive played this game, aswell as COD 4, its a great FPS, graphics are great, gameplay is solid, online play is solid aswell. Gears of War 2 on the other hand, is an amazing game. I love the gameplay style, different from the typical FPS's that I played all the time. None of my friends play it, and wont because "its too hard too kill someone" haha. Not my case, but still it defiantly has a higher learning curve to be good at this game. Another thing though the lag on Gears can be horrendous aswell as the host advantages that seem unstoppable. Also the new "concussive" grenades were brutal, but if Im not mistaken they've toned them down in a update to only a minor stun rather then completely knocked down and basically target practice for other players. Anyone have some good input towards making the decision?? Im not like selling my Gears, but its really a matter of choosing which to "commit"

I'm not a big fan of GoW2, but I'd rather play that than CoD WaW. Are you open to consider CoD4?

CoD4 > GoW2 > CoD WaW

Well from my expierience, I personally prefer Gears of War2. CoD WaW kinda sucked. I love the style of gameplay in Gears.

I've played WAW on my cousin's ps3, and I play GOW2 on my xbox and I have to say go with WAW. GoW2 is incredibly fun multiplayer IF AND ONLY IF you are one of the lucky ones who won't lag, and i'm not one of those people, I won't even find a game to play unless I wait 30+ minutes and it's laggy even then. I'm getting WAW after my exams and selling GoW2 after I complete the single player on insane.

IMO, i would def go for GOW2. love that game. that & SF4 is the reason i have xbox live. but if most of your friends are on COD, then you would prob be better off with that.

I would play CoD. Everybody on Gears just use their shotgun anyway & the maps are pretty much the same layout.

Gears of War 2 is the biggest blunder this year. It is a HORRIBLE sequel, multiplyaer-wise it is too frustrating, gameplay sux, matchmaking sux, too many camping spots, smoke grenades suk, etc. Get CoD WAW or Gears of War 1, but don't waste your time with Gears 2.

Gears 2 is a bit more fun if you ask me codwaw is good as well though and for those of you who lag all the time on gears get your connection fixed i only lag every now and then
