Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.
Teach a man religion, and he will starve to death praying for a fish.

Halo 3 and Gears Of War are both gonna kick ass in their own ways. Halo 3 will be awsome, because it's Halo , and GOW is gonna be sweet because of the atmosphere and survival elements and stuff.

HEY GUYS, I JUST WANT TO CLEAR SOME AIR ABOUT A SOMETHING. I AM A STUDENT AT FULL SAIL GAMING INSTITUTE, AND I ALSO DO INTERNSHIP AT EA CHICAGO, AND THERE WE HAVE A XBOX 360 SETUP AND WE HAVE A PS3 KIT(WHICH IS AN ACTUAL PS3 IN A DIFFERENT CASE), WE RAN DEMOS OF FIGHT NIGHT ROUND 3 AND MADDEN 07 ON HD AND THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE GRAPHICALLY. THE SPPED IS RIGHT ON POINT NECK AN NECK. SO, DEVELOPMENT FOR THESE SYSTEMS ARE FAIRLY EASY. IF YOUR PAYING 600 DOLLARS, YOUR PAYING FOR BLU-RAY.

I don't see the point in comparing these games as they have nothing in common with each other. Both games will -blam!- rock in their own ways.

Considering that GOW is going to be released in Nov 06, and I've SEEN the gameplay with my own eyes, I'm more excited about it. We've seen nothing but a trailer for H3. That's not to say H3 won't be great, but ... they haven't shown us anything yet.

OK, yes, it is very true that I'm a dumb ass. I'm not denying that. However, isn't the whole point of a beta to increase the amount of users until you get someone dumb enough to try something you haven't anticipated.

Both Halo 3 AND Gears of War will kick serious ass. Sony Has no chance at least for the next 2 years.

Probably, but how do you know? You haven't seen anything but a trailer to showcase the engine and incite fanboys to a fever pitch.

Halo 3 all the way. In my opinion, Epic hasn't made a good game since the original Unreal and Unreal Tournament.

Although I am generally dissatisfied with how Halo 2 turned out, it's still miles ahead of anything Epic has ever produced.

Gears looks like one big gimmick to me. The fact that it's 3rd person says to me that it's going to be all about graphics (Hey! Look at my awesomely detailed character bobbing and rolling around on the screen in the middle of a big firefight). From the videos I've seen, you don't even get a targeting reticule until you zoom in. I don't think it will be a very good shooter. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

I think all of those games will rock, but PS3 has a trick up their sleeve, they annouced Killzone 2 at E3 2006 here is the trailer if you want to see it:

Cliffy B likes to call it a "2nd Person Shooter" Because it is not like other 3rd person shooters in terms of aiming and stuff like that.

I think Gears of War is boring as hell, Its so repeatitive, and I think the new one looks the same too.

I also think Sony dropped the ball in the console wars and will do very poorly


I think you mixed up Gears of War with God of War. Gears of War is a game for the 360, not the PS2.

HaLo3 will be the best game ever made by man!!!!!!!
Gears of War will also be a very awesome (by awesome i mean UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE) game but HaLo3 of coarse, will be waaaaaaaaay better!!!!

As for the ps3, it won't come close to what the X360 can do... *cough XBLA cough Live Anywhere cough* and much more to come!!!

The only thing i like from sony is the psp. And thats about it!!!

I can understand those who simply dislike 3rd person shooters, but I think they did a bang up job with the camera (transitions really close while aiming). GOW will undoubtedly be different from Halo. The playstyle is purposefully different and leans slightly more towards reality in regard to combat. You have to aim to fire. In order to aim effectively, you have to stop running. From what I've read there's basically 3 aiming methods (4 if you include sniper zoom): Blind (firing over cover without aiming), running (no reticule spray away), and precision from cover (camera zooms to a very close view and affords the use of a reticule). Sounds interesting to me.

I'm not a H3 hater, but GOW is closer to release and [i]different[/] (not ot mention gory ... Chainsaw melee anyone?).
