Yet somehow Gears is one of the most influential and sales wise it outperforms all of those games on a single platform. On top of that it is one of the most critically acclaimed. Yeah, completely biased list


What does that matter? Uncharted 2 alone is more critically acclaimed than the entire Gears franchise if you want to bring up sales and acclaim but I'm biased? I never said the Gears franchise is bad. I like the world but when it comes to characters and story it's generic. 


It is one of the most influential games, the sales show for it and it is critically acclaimed.  No more explanation needs to be said


Because you have none. I just debunked your whole "argument" which is pointless to begin with. I never said Gears isn't influential, doesn't sell well or isn't acclaimed but since you want to bring up that anyways I made a counterpoint that Uncharted 2 alone itself is more acclaimed than all the Gears games and it is the reviews speak for themselves. Mass Effect 2 as well has reached more acclaim. Gears fan are really divided too. Some love the first game, hate the 2nd and enjoyed the 3rd. Some love all three games. Overall it doesn't appear to be consistent since the fanbase is divided. I can admit the Uncharted series definitely isn't consistent so there is no biased argument here. 

Edit: You just proved you're the biased one here. Instead of judging a game by it's reviews why don't you form your own opinion instead of letting other people do it for you? You think reviews are everything? Many underrated games don't get the proper credit while overrated games like GTAIV somehow get near flawless reviews. The opinions of everyone gamers and reviewers matters much more than just the opinions of reviewers.
