God of war is good enough for me to buy a ps3 for it. So i kind of agree with you. However, i doubt gow3 will be out in 2008, so you're kind of screwed there.

If you're going to open a topic comparing two games let it at least be two games from the same genre.

GoW3 will be better single player wise but gears is still great and has multiplayer. I love GoW more than gears because i am more emotionally attached to the series but Gears 2 is still a must buy for me.

the only people who are going to be 'owned bad', as you so eloquently put it, are people who don't have both a ps3 and xbox 360 and so won't be able to enjoy both these [probably] great games

im going to buy a ps3 for mgs4 and god of war 3

though, what you say is a bit off for two reasons that i can see.

1) all the god of wars have been short, so short that i only rented god of war 1 and 2 (beat them both on the hardest difficulty)

2) no online play to bring people back time and time again after beating it

Exactly white45, GeoF has been outdated by PS3 games like Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank and it has been proven that Gearas puches the 360 to the max. Why don't you think Halo 3 or any other 360 game looks better?

Agree. Now, if we said ''GOW will murder NG'' there we have an argument. Comparing an Action-Adventure with a 3rd Person-Shooter? WTH?

hahahah no and plus their two different styles of game, and plus gears is being copied so much, and plus there was one game that gears stole from i believe it was a game called kill switch aand kill switch copied a game call winback with the duck cover system look it up, so gears is A) not that original and B) can no means be compare to god of war because of the genre difference, i mean thats like saying you wanna compare a peanut butter cup to ice cream, ones a candy and the others a sweetened chilled milk cream

His typo aside, God of War 2 did indeed sell 30 million games worldwide, which basically skewers your BS "2 million" assumption.

Why do people keep saying, "They can't be compared?" As genres, that's obvious enough, but that doesn't mean fun factor is any less of a mediator just because they're two different games. Phrased more simply: I have more fun playing God of War than I do playing Gears of War.

Also, the graphics on God of War 3 are probably going to turn out better.

He's trying to say that proven franchises always get more sales. What he's not aware of is that the first GOW had sales comparable to its sequel.

AIH_PSP

LOL at you. GOW is a better franchise in my opinon than NG. Also, GeOW has been out done and outdated by alot of games this gen. Get over it.

Exactly white45, GeoF has been outdated by PS3 games like Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank and it has been proven that Gearas puches the 360 to the max. Why don't you think Halo 3 or any other 360 game looks better?

Speak for yourself on R&C, and Uncharted there chief. It is all in the eye of the beholder, therefore it is strictly opinion. Imho you don't know wth you are talking about. Gears does not "puches" the 360 to its limits. Idk where you got that idea, but last time I knew it used around 30%-50%.
