well i finally picked up both of these games i have to admit i was more excited about getting gears 2, but i had to wait on getting my new xbox for xmas since my old died of rrod lol anyway went to the sales picked up both gears 2 and reistance 2, started playing through them both and well gears 2 is really disapointing its just a minor upgrade from the first game the graphics are quite dull and grey, although the new melee kills are cool the game feels very linear lol and the story well there isnt much really other than kill all locusts, and somehow they survived after the first game. this series is the next halo first game great story next went competely down the pan in the single player campaign.
played reistance 2 it seems to have a much better story which has some real depth and interest 2 it esepecially how it nicely unrevels the whole story. also the gameplay is much more intense than the first perhaps thats because of more chimera being able to appear and the killer boss battles are awesome.
although there are some issues on graphics in the game for one they arent anywhere as pretty as gta 4 or mgs4 or even little big planets althouhg better than gears 2. the second is sometimes u get depixlation on the chimeras atacks from long range
however overall reistance 2 is an amazing game very action packed campaign with a great story, although parrelles can be taken from the ailen films lol and its co-op play and online is very good every bit as par as halo 3 and gears is. as for gears 2 the multiplayer is just the same despite hoarde mode and the singler player campaign is a little bit dull and tame especially compared to action seen in resitance 2 and other big action titles this year like gta 4 and metal gear solid 4
