yup .. halo for sure. gears of war's online play can't compare to halo's. no replay value on gear's campaing either.

 

plus 3rd person is newbish .. hiding behind a corner and peeking without sticking yourself out is not realistic.

I love Gears, and I suck at Halo, but I would still take Halo 2 (I assume that is the Halo we are talking about) It has an inferior campaign and graphics, but it is just too fun.

Have you even played the game? You get Achievement points for beating the campaign on Casual, Hardcore, and Insane. You also get points for collecting the COG tags and for playing as Dom. I can tell you that every time I played through the campaign to get those achievements was a blast.

You do make yourself vulnerable. While aiming and shooting out of a corner, you have your head and body partially exposed. Yes, you can blind fire and that is when your bullets are just being spread out in many directions.

As for the topic at hand, I would choose Halo largely because the third in the series is coming out.

yes i have the game. i wouldn't be talking about replay value if i didn't play it. i beat the game on insane and hardcore. i meant AI is so predictable. in halo if you change the difficuilty they add more AI and respond better(shoot more, take cover). in gears all they do is increase the damage power the locus produce

gears really is not that good. it was just built up on crap loads of hype. halo is on an completely different level than gears, they just cant be compared.

Halo, in my opinion is a much better game.  I like the campaign mode more and the online interface is much better done.

Gears = characters with great personalities, memorable gross looking enemies, varied environments, intense multiplay   Halo = guy in a helmet with a generic voice, comical enemies, ultra repetitive hallways, circle strafing and camping

Gears of War. Easily one of the best games I've ever played, just wish it was longer. Halo is a bit overrated, but a decent FPS game in my opinion.

I cannot make an honest comparison between the two because I have not played multiplayer Halo 2, because it doesn't work on my system :cry:  campaign in gears was much more entertaining to play through however halo has a better story by far as especially if you read the novels.

um

they are very close...I dont own a 360 yet so because i actually own halo 2 i give it good creds..

but playing gears at a friends house..espically online is so awesome......

if i had to rate from 1 to 10 (10 being best) Halo2 would be like 9ish and gears would be a little higher...

plus even if you can look around corners in gears..whoever thinks thats noobish....your character is much more realistic..you can climb and jump over objects...you can stick to a wall and stay in cover...and blind shoot....BOTH ARE FUN!!!!

wow after playing halo 1 and 2 for a LOT. And Gears a lot practically got seriously over 8 thousand kills i would honestly have to say Gears of War is a much better game i don't know why but it has grown on me over time more and more. Gears Of War is no doubt the best GAME EVER MADE.

Halo not only because it was an awesome game but it was well thought out from the story to the enviroment to the characters and even the controls.  I really enjoyed gears but I found the controls lacking.  The 360 has 8 buttons for a reason.

chill out man.. why are you getting mad? its just a game. when it comes to online play, halo wins. there have been many times where im just waiting for ever for people to join in gears. 2 vs 2 is pretty lame.

Oi, I dont agree with the way this discussion is going, i prefer GoW and GoW2 because i have all the halo games and i dont want to play H3 because i got sick of shooting at the same annoying-talking-running monkeys as in all the other games.

GEARS OF WAR!!!! Seriously, I like both. I just prefer the more tactical game play that Gears has to offer.
