That's definitely your opinion. The vast majority of people around think Gears is a vastly superior game to Resistance. R2 may be a better game than R1, but it's still "just a shooter". Few shooters have risen to the top echelon of gaming... Halo (deserved or not), Half-Life (and its spawn), Gears, CoD4... Resistance doesn't even rate in comparison. As for God of War vs. Fable, both are very good/great games... in entirely different genres. I don't see how you even compare them on a crap list like that. It's like comparing Mario to Gran Turismo and attempting to declare a winner... it makes no sense to anyone but yourself and shows your obvious bias in attempting to do so. As a genre comparison, I'd give the nod to GoW for being the gold standard of hack-n-slash, while Fable is a "very good" WRPG... but there are better. On the other hand, the "hack-n-slash" genre is fucking small while the WRPG genre is huge. I think this is the point where I should note that Fable 2 is probably going to kick God of War's sales numbers in the ass and then take Kraytos' mother out for a nice steak dinner afterward. |
I speech kindly to anyone who thinks Gears = only great TPS made. Please play Unreal Championship 2 on the Xbox than tell me where Gears rates. UC2 = godlike when it comes to TPSs but thats jsut because of its made by Epic Games which makes epic games.
Just an FYI: UC2 has an 8.5 on metacritic mainly due to some retarded late reviews (gameTM? still have no clue on their review quality).
I;m lost on why Gears PC is rated lower on PC than the 360 too.... Gears PC > Gears 360 and has more content.
