Poll which do you prefer Multiplayer only

Geezer · 04-04-2009, 1:53 PM

Yes the Campaign is ok on Gears 2 and Horde is fun for a while but standard multiplayer which do you prefer.

Morphies · 04-04-2009, 2:49 PM

I cant really make a decision on that one.

The original gears MP stole around 18 months of my life. And because of this there will always be a special place in my heart for it.

But the introduction of Execution rules fr the annex game mode on G2 is IMO brilliant.

Basically, if I'd read this thread after a laggy G2 game, I'd have voted G1. If i'd read it after a lag free G2 game, Id vote G2. But being as I haven't played this morning... I'll have to vote for the horsey!

voted for the horsey thought i would be the only 1 but i prefer gears1 to any multiplayer game out there

After last night, anything is better than Gears 2. I thought I was starting to enjoy it and then we run into a pile of laggy

I still think with a full AVF room this game will be fun but you might as well play Gears 1 then. I don't feel any of the new features really enhance the gameplay much.

Careful Facekill, don't want to start a riot now do we

Interesting not a single vote for GOW2 yet.

It was hard work last night. I'm starting to get pretty sick of smoke stun.

Nice to see that the voting options are presented in a way that doesn't try to influence the vote over Gears 1 or 2... infact "Gears of War 2" isn't even mentioned in the voting section.

I love Gears 1. But when I play it's really just a case of everyone running around trying to shotgun each other... also it appeared that early in the 360 life span there really wasn't much worthy competition.

I also Love Gears 2. I just wish they would remove grenade tagging from the walls and floor for the easy/ lazy kills.

Not played My Horse and me 2... so I cannot really comment on that.

Gears of War has no sequel. It hasn't recognised its illegitimate retarded offspring.

Doesn't seem like you've played it since some time last year....If you are a Gears fan and you've not played it since the latest update give it another go. It has changed... it's not perfect (neither is Gears 1) but it is better than it was.

EEC3 · 07-04-2009, 5:41 PM

I disagree - the update has improved a few niggles but the game is still broken IMO, despite the fact I have and will continue to give it a chance

I'm not trying to start another war - just stating my opinion as Ico has done.

I played it last Friday, and the Friday before that - it is indeed better than it was, and I'm perhaps less annoyed by it, but it's hardly up there in the pantheon of classics. Just my opinion, mind - if you like it, carry on enjoying it

I voted horsey because I couldn't see an option for GoW2. If you wanted a serious poll perhaps you should have worded it as such

kopchoir · 08-04-2009, 12:22 AM

Like it isnt abundantly clear what lumberjacks of war 2 was referring to.
