Which is better Metal Gear Solid 4 or Resistance 2?

You can't qualitatively compare a released game you can play in full with something that hasn't even released yet.

Its impossible. All you get is a bunch of preformed (and often uninformed) opinions.

Sorry but this thread = fail.

 

 

Yes we can, we all know its going to be RFOM1 + Extra stuff. Its like comparing an HD4870 with a 9800gtx+ by extrapolating the performance of the known quantity - HD4850.

 

Oh no you can't... you're also ignorning genres, etc. to  boot.  The simple fact is that there are plenty of FPS fans who dislike MGS4 so unless RFOM2 is pants they will see it as better while stealth./MGS fans will of course feel that title is better than RFOM2.

There is no definative 'better' possible with SW comparisons like this as it depends on subjective preferences (aside from comparing graphics and the like of course) - unlike HW where of course you can directly compare components intended to do exactly the same thing - i.e. one Nvida card vs its ATI counterpart.

I know its fun and all but its also a big fat waste of energy as you can't come to a conclusive agreement.

But never let it be said I stand in way of fun 'could Batman whip Superman' conversations... so I'll say RFOM2 will be better as I prefer FPS to stealth (which probably explains my massive number of kills in MGS4, the first MGS I've played, I'm sure my final stats are going to stink as I've wiped out whole battlefields of enemies before realising the buggers were respawning...)
