This is easy and no contest, Gears 2 for me. Uncharted 2 is a fun ride the first time you play, but I could never play it again without losing interest. I have played the Gears 2 campaign several times, and cop-op+Horde is just something Uncharted 2 can't touch.

Technically I think Uncharted 2 has better graphics, but I much prefer the gritty look of Gears 2 and I like the gore+blood more then the clean-cut shiny look of Uncharted 2.

You can't really compare the gameplay either. Gears is an action packed shooter, while Uncharted still doesn't know if it wants to be "Tomb Raider with a cover system" or "Kill Switch with Indiana Jones". Anyone that thinks the cover system in Uncharted is better than the one in Gears 2, just hasn't really played Gears 2 long enough.

People have made an art form out of "wallbouncing" in Gears 2, the cover-canceling and sliding is far smoother than what Uncharted 2 brings to the table.

MP is harder. Gears 2 had a broken online for a long time, while the MP in Uncharted works right. Even with all the lag and glitches I prefer Gears 2, I just find it so much more intense. If Uncharted had online issues I wouldn't touch it. Gears 2 even with all the problems I stuck with it, its' that good.

You realize that there is a horde mode in UC2 right? the co-op stuff goes to gears 2 obviously because it has the full story co-op vs mission modes in uc2, but I doubt you've spent much time with UC2 online if you didn't even know that there is a horde mode aka arena mode.

You realize that having a couple of survival modes is not the same as Horde, right? I never even said that Uncharted 2 didn't have similar modes, I simply said it can't touch what Gears 2 did. It's not even the same, in one you focus on grabbing the golden idol as much as staying alive. I'll take 5 players over 3 any day for this kind of gametype. One of the reasons I think Horde is better is because of the different types of enemies you fight, IMHO only Halo's firefight comes close and it would be better if it had matchmaking. I woudn't compare fighting some generic goons and hired guns to a bunch of crazy looking monsters that don't all behave the same way.
