i think gears is better because u can move from cover to another quickly also Drake cant jump over covers.

i think yes lol .. i didnt play the game from a long time so i forget about it maybe.

 



I like Uncharted cover system better because it is a hell of a lot more realistic.

NNN2004 - Drake can jump over covers.

2 very different games, but I liked Gears cover system better. Diving for cover should be a must in any war game.

Having owned both games, my favourite is uncharted for cover, mainly ebcause wen running on gears of war you can sometimes end up taking cover when you dont want to. Uncharteds system was far smoother

I haven't played Unchartered enough to comment.  But the frustrating part about Gears cover is that A is also used to run fast and somersault.  So sometimes when you need to somersult you get cover instead.  And vice versa, sometimes you want cover and all of a sudden you find yourself in the line fire. 

I think that Gears is a more technical shooter the Unchartered.  Somersulting, active reloads, running fast, jumping over cover, switching weapons, the chainsaw, meeleeing, chainsaw duels, etc. result in a fairly technical game if you take advantage of everything.  Whereas I find almost all other shooters pale in comparison based on what you can do.  Doesn't make it a better game to many people, but it does make it more technical to be good at it...

 



Both are good in context, but I found cover mechanic smoother in Uncharted vs Gears due to Gears using same button for multiple uses vs Uncharted - i.e. I made fewer errors using cover in Uncharted than in Gears.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Uncharted. I Find the movement in gears clunk especially when you run, and also getting stuck to things when you dont want to is so annoying. Uncharted has smoother movement and better controls so it is easier to get in and out of cover.



I found Uncharted better than the original Gears, which was frustrating inducing for me. I found that Gears 2, however, improve that, so I would now call it a wash. Uncharted IS that good though.



i prefer gears, ive only played uncharted a couple of times though
