I don't think Gears is a bad game but just personally I think the gameplay is a little too slow-paced and kinda boring.

Very true.....it can be very clunky and slow as hell.....but still a good game
I can understand why one would compare these two, they are one of the biggest games for the 360. But I gotta tell ya dude, these games are really different from another right.. so why compare?
Yo yo yo, whats better?

halo 3 was pretty good, but waaay overhyped. It brang almost nothing new to the table, except equipment.
Gears was AWESOME, it was original and just plain fun.
gears all the way.
Definitley Gears of War
In Halo 3, if someone shoots you from behind, 99.8% you're dead. And the maps are way too big for midgets to be running around to be shooting each other
While in Gears of War the cover system, let's you to retreat,and replenish health. It takes a lot more strategy in Gears of War
Graphics wise - Halo 3 looks like it belongs on Original Xbox, while Gears of War is NEXT-GEN
Gameplay wise - Halo 3's gameplay is lame and boring, while Gears of War is fun and unique.
Sound wise - Weapons in Halo 3 sound lame and fake, while Gears of War sounds like your apart of a real battle. Explosions sound real and you can hear them from across the map..
game play: halo 3
graphics: GOW
better re-play: halo 3
online plag: duhhhh halo 3.!
sountrack: halo 3
over all halo 3 wins....wait best FpS i played....

The scarb explosion is bigger then any in Gears, and the lancer sound so underpowered.
How was Gears Unique?
And no, halo did not even look close to a original Xbox game. I also noticed in your sig you say Halo's campaign had no story and had a bad conclusion. Makes me wonder how you fell about the single player for Gears.
I'm a fan of both, but honestly, Halo 3 is heavily over-rated. It feels like it's geared towards a much younger crowd, which I don't like. Everything is so bright and clean, and the story was extremely boring. The multiplayer was okay, but I honestly can't stand the people on X-Box live so that pretty much kills my interest in it.
Gears of War just felt so much more gritty, violent, serious, and dark. At the risk of getting flamed by dozens of middle-schoolers, I have to admit thatGoW makes Halo look like a Disney movie. Not to mention the cooperative mode was much more fun. Four-player coop is cool, but GoW was just so much better.

Agreed. Halo=way over rated
Gears= perfection.
People who didn't like Gears must have been turned off by the difficulty. Halo 3 is accessible to even 3rd graders. It's geared toward kids. ANybody get teh feeling though that gears of war purposely named the game that so it sounded like God of War? I mean there was nothing in the game really that said those guys were gears except for some quick dialouge saying it in passing.. Just my two cents.
Gears is over rated but still is way better then Halo3. They needed to makeHalo3 abit more like Halo2 they went tofar with it. :)
Gears has better gameplay and graphics.
Halo has better matchmaking.
Overall, Gears is better.

Gears has better gameplay if you play the game the way its ment to be played. Instead of a shotty fest and get yelled at using the lancer.
Both Communities suck, But to me the gears of war community is by far the worst ive seen.
Halo 3 would get my vote for the fun factor. Gearsonlineis worse, but could be 10 x better than it is now.

um...you honnestly dont know were GEARS comes from?!?! Isnt it the military group that there in COG? and dont cogs form gears? so if Marcus is a cog, then hes in the gears military group...get back on track..halo 3 is more bright and clean because thats its art style, not DESTROYED BEAUTY like gears of war. Every game has its own style and halos art style just attracks a lot of kids.
