Gears of wars 2 flawless victory.

panasonic236268d ago

say the ps3fanboy gtfo here you i love D!ck N my Ass agent.

Obama6268d ago

"i love D!ck N my Ass"

whatever float your boat...

DNAgent6268d ago

You love my "D!ck" in your ass?

I guess I can understand that seeing as how you're always riding Microsoft.

Microsoft Xbox 3606268d ago (Edited 6268d ago )

panasonic23 speaks for the entire 360 fanboys when he says that. LOL.

swiftshot936268d ago (Edited 6268d ago )

admittedly, I am a huge RE fan.

Oh, and RE5 online works :D

WildArmed6268d ago

True.
But i loved GeOW2 and i loved RE5.

Even though i did get pissed once in awhile when i played RE5.
I'd say GeOW2 wins this hands down. RE5 is a horror survival.. wtf are they doing comparing them?

Gears is more popular since its action/TPS.. while RE5 aims for a different crowd.

Despite online issue, i go with Gears xD

badz1496268d ago

sorry dude, but RE5 is an action shooting game a.k.a. a TPS like Gears. It's no longer a horror game because...it's simply not! so, this comparison is valid. I can't say which one is better though because I don't play both because I don't have a 360 for Gears2 and I hate Capcom's practice with the scam DLC for RE5! I'll leave that to those who do

ChampIDC6268d ago

I haven't had many issues, bar a few glitches, in online co-op on Gears 2, but the competitive multiplayer is definitely a mess. I don't think I could choose a favorite if talking about co-op.

Bnet3436267d ago

Not even comparable. Dead Space vs RE5 is a better comparison.

ThanatosDMC6267d ago (Edited 6267d ago )

Apparently someone hasnt played RE5 to say it's a horror survival game... RE5 better story, better co-op, better visuals, but lame ass "chest high walls" cover system.

Gears has better action.

Both have poor selection of guns. You can basically rely on two guns for the whole game.

I agree that Dead Space vs RE5 would be better. I can imagine Dead Space with co-op while retaining its scary atmosphere.

WildArmed6267d ago

Reason why i call RE5 'survival' horror is the tank shooting system.
The survival word is the key, and horror.. coz duh RE=horror.

@DMC don't jump to conclusions. its a bad habit, aint gonna help in life m8. Played RE5 quite a few times.

Still GeOW2 wins hands down.. tank system makes RE5 look like .. nothing... as the action is always more intense in gears.

(Fact: This is my opinion.. don't get all fanboy on me for my opinions)

Is it a match between which protagonist is more homo? If that's the case Gears 2 definitely wins.

thebudgetgamer6268d ago (Edited 6268d ago )

so theres alot of homoerotic behavior in gears?
so no?

edit: are you insinuating that marcus is a prison rapist?

Obama6268d ago

Just look at Marcus Fenix's face. He will rape you in prison if you ever drop the soap and yes he was in prison.

DelbertGrady6268d ago

It gets no gayer than an old man with homo-moustache wearing a g-string. Snake is as gay as it gets. And then there is LittleBigPedo. And Uncharted. Drake = Ryan Seacrest in wet jeans.

They were all designed with the homoerotic PS3 install base in mind.

Etseix6267d ago

little big pedo?
...u just get an EPIC FAIL.

hell if u think LBP is pedo, then what the hell is Viva Piñata?!?! and Banjo Kazooie?!?!??! why Banjo has Kazooie in a backpack? ro rape it anytime he wants??, and on Viva Piñata, yea, crush one of those and u wont get candys, ull get a big dild* right?

SHAME ON YOU

So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.

Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.

I mean 0, 1 and Code Veronica should be way before we get into 5 or 6.

Darkseeker136d ago

5 and 6 are so bad that even Capcom want to pretend they don't exist.

Levii_92136d ago

Dude Code Veronica is bad too but RE5 and 6 were mega successful and to me it makes much more sense for Capcom to do them instead. Nobody cares about Code Veronica except niche fixed camera era RE fans, i bet most modern RE fans probably don't know Code Veronica even exists. Based on all that i don't believe CV remake is coming but we will see i guess.

MehmetAlperTR136d ago (Edited 136d ago )

Actually RE5-6 was not Classic RE game.. They are not even Survival Horror game.. They are just an action game with coop and named by RE... And for me RE Code Veronica was masterpiece.. I remembered the first time i played it in Dreamcast.. It was absouletly excellent game. And specially for RE6.. I was quit from game after the camera shakes when Leon's kick to zombies.. There's a video about RE6 and they are telling the truth about that shitty game https://www.youtube.com/wat... here it is.. Enjoy it..

Neonridr136d ago

people are DYING for a Code Veronica Remake. Not sure who you are talking to, but the die-hard RE fans of the series are very familiar with every entry. That's what it means to be called a die-hard fan.

neutralgamer1992136d ago

Levii

I am sure If they were to remake CV that it 2ont have fixed camera angle. I hope whatever they do they take their time like RE2/4 remakes and not rushed with cut content like RE3 remake

Before they should do RE5 they should go back and remake earlier games. In a perfect scenario we would get CV and RE/Zero before RE5/6

Tapani136d ago

Code Veronica on Dreamcast was absolutely AWESOME.

It makes more sense for them to remake earlier games like Code Veronica. RE5 is a good game though - it's not THAT different from RE4.

RE5 just doesn't really need to remade in general. The co-op element makes it tricky - you'd probably add more moments where Chris is by himself enhance the horror but some would want co-op to stay.

thesoftware730136d ago

RE:5 Was and still is a great game, with hands down the best Merc mode, that I still play from time to time with my brother.

RE:6 blah, I agree, it was awful.

Redgrave136d ago

Other than Code Veronica, 6 is the one ai want to see remade the most only because pretty much everything has to be redone; can't streamline that hot mess.

DarXyde136d ago

6 was pretty bad. 5 just tried too hard in being an action-oriented RE4.

In some fairness to Capcom, 5 was the first Resident Evil on then-new hardware for them (X360 and PS3). And it was pretty damn hard to follow up RE4.

Imagine everyone's surprise when EA of all companies dropped Dead Space.

Alos88135d ago

The first half of 5 wouldn't be too hard to do in the more grounded style the remakes have gone for, but the second half gets pretty silly and uncomfortable at parts.
6 is a wash. You'd have to basically make a whole new game to salvage that one at this point.

__y2jb135d ago

6 is garbage. 5 is excellent.

Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.

gerbintosh136d ago

I need a Parasite Eve remake
