Don't remember much, but I remember being there much hype on it. We didn't get much footage though and when it finally release they where less then average. Am I correct? I'm just wondering because me and my friend were arguing about it.

Looked better than GeoW1.

There was a lot of fuss about it in SW...You know,with UC2.

Yeah, I remember Uncharted 2 really blew it out of the water. But I'm giving credit where credit is do, Gears 3 has defiently uped its game a lot.

IMO it was the best looking game on consoles when it released, MGS4 be damned.

Sure it was beaten pretty quickly by KZ2 but I'd say Gears 2 was still a great looking game.

Damn right. Gears 2 was console graphics king and so is Gears 3. Gears 1 and 2 are the best games ever. You better enjoy them

NO, GEARS 2 STILL LOOKS MUCH BETTER THEN UNCHARTED 3. UNCHARTED 3 IS FAILdahonestgamer

I'm sick of these fan boys. I do own both Uncharted 2 and Gears of war 2, and I believe Gears 3 looks superior to Uncharted 3 but really? Gears 2 looks superior to Uncharted 3. Is that a joke?

Yep, gears 2 was so amazing. Nothing on the ps3 can touch it today and PC games maxed out still look like poo next to gears 2. Gears 2 is the greatest graphics and gameplay ever. If you disagree your wrong

What about Gears of war 3 and Uncharted 2, 3?

I just said Gears of war 3 looks superior to Uncharted 3? Seriously. You're being the fan boy my friend. I just go by logic, and logic states Gears 2 graphically and game play wise was inferior to Uncharted 2, 3.

Looked pretty good in 2008 so... no, some games looked a lot better of course but I have a soft spot for Gears mainly due to the co-opy goodness.

Is this a joke? I even have played both, I believe it's obvious I have a love for Gears. But I'm perfectly willing to admit and it's fact Uncharted 2, and especially 3 look better then Gears 2.

No, it looked pretty damn good, as did UC2. (Although, not gonna lie, when I saw UC2, I was a bit underwhelmed from the hype those graphics get here on SW.)

There wasn't much Uncharted 2 stuff back in 2008 though... it was mostly MGS4 vs Gears of War 2 stuff.

Never said UC2 sucked just that when listening to the hype on SW, it was underwhelming. And I have seen better looking games than Gears 2, in terms of artistic design and variety. (Good looking technically but a bit bland at parts.)

Totally agree, Gears 1 art was phenominal. The kyril easily tops every moment I've ever had in gaming.

Correction. It looks WAYYY better then Uncharted 3. Your wording is a little incorrect. And logic states that you are wrong. I thought you liked Gears, why aren't you backing me up?
