Which gernades are better? I think the best are Frags because of the bigger explosions.

Ups and downs to both. Frags don't stick, plasmas can stick to you, etc.

Frags have a bigger "Kill radius" but you stick a plasma grenade onto a Grunt it can cause havoc when he tries to get his friends help. I use plasma grenades more often simply because they are more abundant!
In MP I prefer frags though

single-player/co-op = plasmas. I like to stick them to elites because they dive out of a frags blast radius too easily.
multi-player = frags. the explode quickly, bounce, and can wipe off someones shields at ridiculous distances.

Both grenades have ups and downs. I like them both and make sure I have the right one out for the situation.

Plasmas stick, Frags bounce
Frags have a shorter fuse than Plasmas
Plasmas do more damage than frags

Its as simple as what you need for the situation really.

I love Frags for MP because they are silent but deadly. Especially in Hangem' High, chucking a grenade from the top of blue base and nailing a person over on red base is quite fun. Another fun thing to do is get on top of BG and practice throwing grenades at people as they spawn by the bases ( this is what I do when I run completely out of ammo on my sniper rifle and pistol ).

Grenades are purely situational implements of destruction. At some times, when I see a red blip coming up on a corner, Ill toss a frag and bounce it off a wall to get it AROUND that corner. When I have Plasmas and the active camouflage, I like to sneak up on people and play "tag". The people screaming "WHERE IS HE!! WHERE IS HE!?!" Makes me giggle. Another benefit of the Fragmentation grenade is, when you throw it, it doesnt look like a GODDAMNED SIGNAL FLARE! A good sniper will look for things like that.
