GoW has an odd distiction in the world of gaming - it is the most overhyped game ever, but it also is one of the worst shooters on the market today. That's tough to pull off. Hell, Halo 2 is even overhyped, but it kicks ass, so it's all good. Every single aspect of Halo is far superior to GoW, except for graphics, which **NEWS FLASH** - are NOT AN INDICATION OF HOW GOOD A GAME IS!

Halo 2 hands down. The MM system is better. You can't get a party of up to 8 people and jump from game to game in GoW like you can with Halo.

Halo 2's lobby and party system is the best thing ever to hit console online gaming.

I see you're from Essex. Well, this pleases me, and, now I will contribute an unnecessary response and support your short statement for that reason. So, yes, the lobby, party system and the user interface are the greatest feature (of Halo2) of any online game.

Whoa. Nice argument to why GoW is better; lacks substance really. 'Hogs wouldn't change a thing.

Although we speak of GoW, we are comparing it to Halo 2; it has relations and relevance here, well, maybe not relevance (to the forum, that is, when you look at its productivity value).

"If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer."

GoW is repetitive. Same thing over and over again. Run up, hide behind ledge, peak over and shoot, hide and reload. Halo 2 is way better.

I like halo 2 better because you don't have to go through all the crap on finding a game if you wanna play ranked with your friends...

Plus the shotgun is pretty much bs in Gears... Sometimes you can snipe a guy with it; Sometimes it doesn't hurt them when its down their throats.

FAQ.
I'm certifiable.

It's the variety of gametypes that makes Halo 2 (IMO) multiplayer superior to GoW. Well, variety and the party system so you can stay with a group of friends through multiple ranked games. Well, variety, the party system, and matchmaking so you get a good mix of the maps instead of the same old ones. Well, variety, the party system, matchmaking, and in-game use of vehicles to add tactical depth. Well, variety, the party system, matchmaking, vehicles, and broader weapon selection...

Okay, maybe I'm a fanboy. Then again, there has to be a reason that Halo 2's multiplayer is still getting so much use nearly three years after its release.

-- Steve enjoyed the heck out of Gears of War, don't get him wrong... it's a really fun game. But it's Halo 2 that keeps drawing him back.

Halo 2. GoW is too repetitive.
