Forums - Microsoft - Gears of war 2, The best third person shooter!

GeoW 2 is a huge step up from the first one. Makes me wonder why the first is even considered in the series considering this one blows it out of the water. Great story and single player thus far while enhancing on the solid gameplay experience. Not to mention horde is a great edition to the online. But the real enhancements came in the single player experience which shows Epic put a lot of effort into it. Best Third Person Shooter I've ever played of course only other ones was Bond: Everything or Nothing and the first Gears so didn't have any competition to really begin with. Great game and worth a buy from anyone.

I'm playing it right now, totally hooked. A lot better than the first!




 

GOW2 rulez, best FPS of 2008 for graphics, action... everything !!

Despite the achievements glith I had (I finished the game in hardcore and the achievement didn't unlock), I'm already starting over with the same intense pleasure.

 

GOW2 RULEZ



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

GOW2 was fun but where was the final boss battle? if you're talking about the best third person shooter then it's fun game but nowhere near the best imo.

both Max Paynes were better than this and if you class Mass Effect as a third person game (you shoot in third person view) then this is way, way, way better than gears of war 2.

 

Mass Effect is a Western RPG, to be more specific, a Western ARPG...

But i agree, Max Payne is way better, i also include MDK, Resident Evil 4 and Bond: Everything or Nothing, some friends say MGS4 but for me it's a TP Stealth Action game, not a TPS...

Of course online mode is for them...



The best shooter on the 360, but a mediocre shooter at all.

Probably why, it sold 2.1 millions in a couple of days... nevermind...

I prefer Resident Evil 4.
