It's hard to compare the two games, because they're aiming at different experiences - Gears has that delicious chainsaw/cover combo, while R2 has more of a coherent story and masses of enemies at one time (also, they added a sprint function, which is a huge plus). They're both topnotch games, so it depends on what you want your shooter to be. I do have a slight preference for R2's game-play style, because I don't like the feeling of "sticking" to objects which is part of the cover aesthetic, but that's just my own preference. Enjoy them both!
