Since I haven't played MGS 4 because I haven't beat MGS 2 & 3 yet (I'm kinda late), I'm gonna say GOW 3 is my second favorite.

How can you compare the two? They aren't even slightly similar at all. If I had my pick, I honestly wouldn't pick either. MGS3 was better than MGS4 and GOW2 was better than GOW3. They would both be a low tie for me.

They are both Action / Adventure but the 1st is Third Person Shooter and the 2nd is Hack and Slash. They can't be compared to each other.

Anyway, I LOVE them both but a think... I think... I like God of War 3 a little bit more.

However, these 2 games are my best games ever.

I am still beating GOW3 but that is a tough call. I would say MGS4 so far though just because of the story and characters. I mean I am much more into the MGS storyline just due to its complexities and vast array of characters.

:lol:LOL! i can't believe you're comparing the two! is this a joke comparison? two are completely different games, mgs4 is known for stealth long time ago, in mgs4 you have a choice to be stealthy, lethal or non-lethal, or head-on approach as optionals and more,.. lots of ways how to play it. god of war 3 is known to be linear only head on hack and slash action which is there is no other way to play it but to button mash, in short: kill or be killed. imo gow 1-3 can't touch mgs games. mgs games are untouchable.

I'd rather not choose because I love both and they are amazing games but I'd have to go with MGS.

I rented MGS and turned it off, returned it same day and asked for a kick to the groin ... which was more enjoyable than playing that garbage - God of War is by FAR the best out on PS3 and before God of War, I would have to say Uncharted 2, then before Uncharted 2, Uncharted ... MGS SUCKS

I am yet to play GOW 3, but have loved the series, didn't really play MGS in the PS1 & PS2 days but I wish I had because I got MGS4 with my PS3 and I thought it was absolutely amazing! When I play & complete GOW 3 I will comment this post with my decision :)

Saw GoW3 review on Gamespot during the day GoW3 was launched. Got my very first own console, a PS3 slim. At that time, GoW3 was out of stock, so made a reservation for the whole of GoW series. In the meantime while waiting, bought MSG4 since I'd played and enjoyed MSG2 on PC years back. Well... MSG4 was not up to my expectation even after reading so much "good" reviews about it. In terms of graphics, I feel that it is outdated as compared with GoW3. Animation wise, the movement looks outdated and unnatural. Gameplay wise, I'm turn off with aiming with gamepad. Eventually, I sold it off, collected my GoW series, and was playing GoW eversince. Completed GoW1, currently in midst of GoW2. As for GoW3, enjoyed the demo version totally, and play a bit of the full version till meeting up with Poseidon, was totally awesome and blown away. But got to save the best for last. So, I guess my vote is GoW3.

Hmmmm I enjoyed both titles immensely buuuuuuuut...... MGS4 takes it, ever so slightly. I just found it to be a better end to Solid Snake's story, though I have been following it longer so that may have something to do with it.

MGS4 had won my number 1 spot over HL2. But after completing GOW 1, 2 and now 3 in the past 3 1/2 weeks, I've got to say my vote now goes to GOW3. Its really a tough call, but I do love some puzzles and some great dramatic epic moments and GOW3 definitly takes it home for me.

Metal Gear Solid 4. God of War plays like a regular button masher for the most part and I've never been interested in the story.

MGS4 definitely, I beat GoW3 in 8 hours on Normal, very disappointed,traded it in towards Demon's Souls, DS is turning out to be a disappointment as well with its unnecessary grind and difficulty. I wasted so much money this week on two mediocre games :/ But at least I know I can go to a game like MGS4 and have fun still :)

Most definitely MGS4. It drew me into the world... which is all it took for me to like it. I found God of War 3 to be another stellar addition to the series...but it wasn't driven/ well paced. It was just the usual kill, kill, rage, kill....even more so than the previous games. I'm echoing what I've been stating since the game launched...but ..the plot delivery was horrible as well imo.

UC2 as I own the movie LOL MGS4(still haven't finished due to long cut scenes and loading times) and GOW 3 I own but haven't played as I need to finish the first 2. Though out of what I have played from GOW and MGS I would have to say GOW. I now that neither of them will touch UC2 in terms of my favorite game this gen.

I thought it was paced very well, you have a couple of tough battles, then a puzzle, then onto a boss fight. The game I thought kept things pretty fresh through out. I never really felt like they were just extending the game for NO reason besides to make people happy that they played a 20 hour game. Heck gow 1 I beat in 10 or 12 hours but it felt like it was 20 hours long. It was still great but I just think that one lost track of the story. Part 2 I beat in 21 hours and it felt like it was only 10 hours long :) Part 3 I had 12 hours in it and it felt perfectly fine that way. Also you had a issue with the plot delivery? Geez, he was there to kill Zeus and anyone associated with him, thought that was pretty evident lol.

Uncharted 2 is great for its gameplay, humor and story, its just fun to play. But Mgs4 and Gow3 have a whole different level of story telling and immersion. I would say they are on a whole different plane. But all 3 would be considered my top 3 games, HL2 dropped alot to me during this gen lol. I really have a hard time deciding just where HL2 stands now in my rankings.

Its good you enjoyed the game and found it excellent...but I personally think it could have been leagues better. I like the game as well, but I'm not going to ignore what I think are major disappointments in the game. No tough battles as far as I've played. Almost all enemies are easily dismembered on all difficulties. There's only one puzzle in the game I thought was worthy of being called a puzzle [spoiler] The Garden Puzzle [/spoiler] The rest were just inane crap that didn't require two thoughts to complete. Excellent boss fight potential was lost on multiple events [spoiler] Cronos, Helios, Hepheastus, Hermes, Gaia (I was promised Titans but all I did was run around on them).....would have been great to actually fight them instead of ending them A.S.A.P with QTE [/spoiler] As far as plot is concerned...to be honest with you, I'm tired of explaining my opinion on why I think its rubbish so I'll just save myself the energy and link you to previous threads where I explain in detail why I'm displeased with the plot. LinkLinkLink I'm pretty sure there are other threads I've had to point out how much I hated the plot but I'm not even going to bother looking. So anyways, to repeat myself, I liked the game for all the reason of murder and rage...but I wasn't impressed-much less, immersed. MGS4 has more substance and a much better flow as far as I'm concerned.

Red Dead Redemption

Indeed, let's vote for the game that hasn't been released yet.

Anyways, both are good, but FFXIII takes the cake for me. Though if we're gonna go PS3 exclusive...Demon's Souls.
