Presentation and graphics were scored higher on Gears... the truth hurts!

 

well grafix on screen will look good on gears 2 because it goes 3rd person view, as it pans out more on screen in front of you.

its a bit like unreal tournament on ps3, when u issue action cam mod, the display on screen looks different because it goes into 3rd person view.

on that front it would be hard to compare, but gears 2 with its less ambitious scope, win out but that wont matter to gamers as both are excellent games.

what makes me pick R2 over gears 2, is R2 is far more grander in scope with amazing boss battles plus the plethora of multiplayer options, 8 player co-op on a seperate dedicated story, and up2 60 player lag free online matches = win

but for 360 owners gears 2 will be a perfect buy this xmas. if i had 360 only i would have gears 2 on my radar.

grafix for both are excellent although different, both have a few frame issues but non game breaking, but no game is perfect.

i still predict fanboy reviews will lower R2 down as much as they can go, even the most stringent xbox fan if he admitted to himself, regarding the 1up R2 review would admit, that they gave that game a low score in contrast to what they said about the game.
