While overall I do think Gears 2 looks "better" than Resistance 2, R2's online is just ridiculously more fun. 8 player co-op is so awesome, it should be mandatory in all games. I found the scale of battles to be so much bigger on R2 than GeoW 2. Sure horde has lots of guys coming, wave after wave, but theres literaly times in R2 that you open a door and around 50 guys come charging in at you. So awesome.
