Gears MP was absolutely horrible, the host advantage makes makes the MP pointless. CoD4 doesn't have bad MP but it falls way short of the bar that Halo 3 set.

In my opinion, Gears was never the best multiplayer game. Sorry.

I read your post (topic starter), and I said to myself, "He hasn't played COD4, Halo 3, Vegas, or much of anything else." When you can compare the games in a research paper let me know, and I'll read it and see for myself.

wow soulsmasher, where have you been? I bet that island of gears players is cold and loney. Halo 3 the best as of now although many disagree and say cod 4 is best, there is alot of B.S. in both games i would take B.S. in halo 3 over cod4

Gears was all I played for many months, but I rarely touch it anymore. With that being said, I do believe that it is one of the best mp experiences for the 360 but several issues kept it from reaching its full potential.

The online in Gears is not very good. The LAG and the GLITCHES had me pulling my hair out.

Gears is great, but halo 3 and cod4 are better, simple as that, they're all very enjoyable either way still

Probly not, but imo it is. its really I tie for me though between gears and halo 3, I hate when people try to say one is better than the other, cause imo there two completly different games, Halo 3 is a run and gun fast paced fps where you can go off by yourself and stillsurvive. While Gears is a more team based strategy oriented game where you normally get killed when you go off by yourself and there both fantastic games in there own right. I love em both:D

COD3, GRAW2, Halo3, Team Fortress 2, Vegas

All better then gears online.

I loved the gears singleplayer and the online is OK, but not that great and very overrated IMO.

Hell yeah Gears is the best. I bought COD4 first day it came out and stopped playing the multiplayer a week or two after come on you gotta level up to get weapons!!!! Not to mention you have guys hiding in one spot or room waiting for somebody to walk by and shoots them if you could get the perspective given by Gears or even Rainbow 6 it would be the best. As far as Halo come on jumping 15 feet in the air where's the realism where's the feel that you are at war?!?!? While host advantageand glitches suck hot sweaty monkey balls its still a visceral experience unrivaled by no other game seeing your characters head pop off, legs fly off, or get sawed in half is kinda of scary my heart races everytime I play. And as far as lag there's lag in every game I've lagged in COD4 as well as Madden as long as slow internet is out there lag will exist. GEARS OF WAR is the only game you need everything else is just worth a rental!!!!

Gears multiplayer was never the best. Ever. Did you notice how Halo 3 has a ranking system, a skill system, and the ability for you to fluidly form teams with your friends or on the fly? Where are all those options in Gears? If Gears had had half of the multiplayer system that Halo does, it might have been at the top... IMO it failed big time.

ive played halo 3 and still think the mp on gears of war is better.

is gears still the best mp game?

soulsmasher93

Gears of War is more fun, but it does not make up for it having a broken multiplayer game.

Epic should be ashamed for releasing a half working game.

If you can't play Ranked matches with friends, then the game is broken.

Also Gears of War has more glitches than Halo 2. Epic needs to test crap before release.

-

As for Halo 3? The multiplayer variants and maps are terrible. Bungie did well with Halo 2, but did the exact opposite with Halo 3. Made the game into a T Rated game and robbed it of any quality. Halo 3 is the worst game I have ever played. I would rather play Perfect Dark over Halo 3. That's saying alot.

Besides the obvious lag, glitches, host advantages the reason why GeoW MP is terrible not bad terrible is the people who play it. I can't go on there without listening to some elitist 10 year old scream and cry about how his team sucks, someones cheating, or how he was doing so much better last game. And the fact a new player can't just pick up and play because there is no attempt what soever at matchamaking. The system allows people who are playing for the first time to play wiht someone who has put the time in to get all 1250 acheivements. Thats not right at all.

I still think Gears is the best but I still havent played COD4 although I did play the beta. Poeple should stop complaining about host advantage and be good enough to kill the host, you can actually kill the host if your good enough...

I'm sorry but Gears as the best multiplayer game? Are you joking? Halo 3 kills it easily. The Gears mp is brutal, I played it for about a week, got sick of the inconsistency and never went back. I have yet to play COD 4, but even the beta was better than Gears. RB6 Vegas, Halo 3 and even Orange Box (though not perfect) are way better.

I love Gears to death and I have RB6: V, Halo 3, & COD4 & getting the Orange Box for Christmas. Right now COD4 is owning my multiplayer time...but I still go back to Gears almost everyday and play some ranked games. I just can't get enough of it.

Now, after playing games like Halo 3 & COD4...I say to myself that if Gears 2 can make their multiplayer options similar to these games it may just take over my entire life. Gears needs to get rid of host advantage, bullet lag and it screams for a party system.

But to say that its multiplayer is garbage is just being ignorant. It still is in my top 5 favorite games on the 360 right now and possibly my personal favorite game of all time.

This thread just screamed for all the haters, trolls & blind Halo fanboys to come out of the woodworks. Don't get me wrong, I love Halo and Rainbow 6 and Call of Duty...I love my 360 I love being a gamer, but I'm no fanboy.

is gears still the best mp game?

soulsmasher93

Dude, with all due respect, GoW's multiplayer was as skeletal as you can get on current gen. Not a knock on GoW since it wasnt meant to be a MP-centric game but you can't compare COD4 or Halo's MPto GoW's. IMO, COD4's MP is the finest I've seen yet. Halo 3 mp would be a close 2nd.

I see Gears of Wars multiplayer as a newcommer to XBL's system ...it was really the first true next-gen game to come out for any console. So now all we can hope is that Epic learns from its competition and their past expierience from the first Gears and brings us something truly outstanding in their next installment on the multiplayer front. I have no worries about the singleplayer/co-op expierience because it certainly delievered in my opinion.

I didn't like GeOW online at all.MJ0LNIR_SPARTAN

Same here.

IMO, Halo 3, COD4, & Rainbow Six Vegas have the best online multiplayer.
