and i have to disagree with you jaywood i would say uncharted2 was way more influential than any gears game. i didnt put gears in my list because i didnt play it


What has Uncharted brought besides cinematics?  Even then Gears was already cinimatic but not on the same level as uncharted

 

:P

Apparently :P lol  This annoys the hell out of me though.  i get that this site is kind of anti microsoft but I cant see how people can possibly say the things that they are.  It is arguable with Call of Duty and Gears because call of duty made such a big bang in the market but Uncharted no.  If people want to argue whhich is better then that is fine.

007. New M reporting. I think Read Dead started last generation with Red Dead Revolver. Since it is totally new and different it might still count. You may keep your 007 status since you like such an awesome game but next time check your smartphone while drinking green bottle beer.

Other dudes please keep calm. There is no denying that Gears of War was a pioneer in a lot of things. The cover system, horde mode can now be found in all games. Plus big heavy dudes sprinting so fast is enough of a revolution. I've only played half of Gears 1 and 2's horde mode. That is why it didn't make the list.

I love uncharted and it definitely is an amazing game, i just dont see how it brought anything new to the table.  I just think it ranks up there with the best of the best.  Anyways I will wait til you get back and you can tell me later why you think what you think.  Just send me a PM sometime.  Later bro

It's not necessarily what something brings to the table that's new, it's what it does with the resources it has. Heavy Rain brought more new ideas to the table than CoD, Gears, and Uncharted, and has influnced recent titles, such as The Walking Dead - but, I don't think that's enough to call it the "most influential". 

Gears of War didn't really bring much new to the playing field. The camera perspective was from Resi4, the cover mechanics mimiced Kill.Switch, past games already had "good" graphics, and the story was nothing that hadn't been seen in any Alien game/flick before it. However, it's how it used those assesst that sparked an army of clones, and for that, it has been influential, yes, but not an evolution and, in my view, not the most impactful franchise of the gen.


We are not talking about which one is better or which one looks better.  If that is the case then The Whicher 2 is more influential than both. What Im saying is that Gears changes the TPS genre and we both know that is true.  The camera, perfected cover system, even hoarde mode was all made popular by gears.  And exactly what you just said that i bolded is exactly what Im saying about uncharted.  It did not make those things popular.  And yes Im well aware of Kill Switch and is why i said "perfected"

I haven't disagreed with what you bolded, I'm just saying that it wasn't the most influential franchise this gen (based on my examples). It perfected past ideas, agreed, but the titles I mentioned in my first post did more for the industry this gen. 


More?  So youre saying that by comopletely changing the TPS genre, Horde mode, and the cover system was not made popular by Gears?  Whatever bro.  You have no clue what you are talking about.  You can argue the two between Gears and Call of Duty but wow.  New thread time on something that im sure you all have read before.

Gears had an impact on one genre which, again, I never argued against. However, Call of Duty and Wii Sports had an influence on a scale that it could only hope for. Hell, Wii Sports not only was responsible for clone titles like Sports Champions and Kinect Sports, but Microsoft and Sony created devices that aimed specifically for that market (and are considered rip-offs by plenty). 

Call of Duty is a billion-dollar franchise within the first week of sale (this without even going in to the recipe that devs have tried to mirror recently). Many people are chasing that and changing their titles to mimic the success. Gears has, especially of late, been fairly low on the influences, but I would agree that the original Gears and, to a lesser extent, Gears 2 had their fair share of stark contributions. They just just did not do what Call of Duty and Wii Sports have.

Didnt even read what you posted and I will not look at my new thread and itll explain what ive been saying the entire time.
