Xbox 360 Fanboy

I dont even know what resistance is about.....honestly I could care less....
This contest was over before it started, it would be alot more worthwhile to compare Halo3 vs. Gears That is worth something b/c PS3 doesnt have a single damn game that would force me to shell out 600 smackers on it..
Just my objective 2 cents

Where's Optimus Prime when you DON'T need him?

some people are stupid... I've played Resistance before... I've been playing a version of it for the past 15 years. The game is standard FPS fair with a interesting twist on WW2. It may as well be call Call of Half-Life.

As good/great as gears is, isn't it a little unfair considering there aren't as many ps3's as copies of gears. This would be fair if anyone who wanted to could buy both systems and games.

Oh my god...

That is not even fair! Resistance just looks downright bad in a lot catagories! I mean I thought it was at least a decent FPS, but it just looks... I dunno, Daikatana comes to mind at the such of this mediocrity.

Yea I'm a pretty big 360 fanboy but I thought Resistance at least looked good. Wow... just wow.

I'm tired. Take some words out of that one sentence; or add some? I don't know anymore...

Wow, that was one of the coolest productions I've seen online. Many, many props go to GT for that. GoW obviously wins, but GT did an amazing job on this VS feature.

Why is there no category for "campaign". GOW is extrememly flawed in many way in campaign mode, where I believe Resistance shines.
Graphics can be tossed up to taste. Simply because Resistance isn't bright and shiny colors doesn't make it graphically weak.

For arguments sake I would hand Resistance the nod on campaign mode, AI because of the AI's ability to learn your style of play and adjust to it, and vehicles.
Everything else goes to GOW, and GOW still would remain the over all winner
Though I think a more fair versus would be Resistance against a 360 FPS. These two games are drastically different and meant to be played differently. Maybe next year we can see a Halo 3 vs. Resistance 2 face off.

How did Gears AI and Enemies Win.
Ever See one of you Squad Jumping Back and Forth across a Rock. In cover, Out of cover, In cover, Out of Cover. Smart Enemies that Yell "I'm reloading"

Nice Totally Biased Article. Did Bill Gates make that Chart Himself.

I own both and I really don't like Resistance. I find Resistance boring because to me it's nothing I haven't played before.

Resistance rarely has any communication online. People join a lobby and everyone runs around holding the trigger down.

So in rough online terms, you're effectively saying that Resistance: Fall of Man, is for noobs? LOL, just kidding. I actually really want to play that game.

Reminds me of a drunken argument last night about the Xbox controller vs the PS2 controller for Tiger Woods...the PS2 analogs are way less accurate and sensitive, in effective making them "easier" for the game. Does it have something to do with that? I switch between both versions just fine, but the other guy can't use the 360 controller...

Scott,

Get over it, will you? It seems that every time I read a post of yours, you're always complaining about some failing of the Xbox 360's hardware, services, or software. If an Xbox 360 game trumps anything made by Sony, you're the first to hint at some conspiracy theory that Bill Gates swayed the votes of the poll or fabricated a chart in his favor even though he's no longer a part of Microsoft; he retired, remember? I mean, it must be unfathomable for MS to have a good product with a game people seem to enjoy more over the competitions'. That must be why MS is selling a consistent and respectable amount of units each month while people are returning PS3s for Wiis and 360 bundles. If the Xbox 360 and all that encompass it are really as bad as you make them about to be, why do you even take the time necessary to complain? I'm certain if MS bought every game that's currently available and those that will be released in the future, paid for a lifetime's worth of Live, paid for your console and every certified accessory with lifetime warranties with a 1080p TV that had VGA to sweeten the deal, you'd still find a way to complain.

Every one of your posts is tantamount to, "B*tch, b*tch, b*tch, b*tch, and b*tch some more." Are you entitled to your opinion? Sure, but everyone eventually grows weary of your perpetual complaints since they rarely contribute anything constructive to a current topic; if it's not, again, introducing some MS conspiracy theory or complaining about how unfair or biased an article or poll is if it's not in Sony's favor, you've got nothing to talk about. You're like a more literate, linguistically sophisticated version of Matchbox (a.k.a, 360 flammer); no matter what MS does in regards to the Xbox 360 or what games are released for it, it's always wrong somehow.

As for AI, I've played R:FOM and there was more than one occasion where an enemy NPC was so damn incompetent it couldn't find its way up a staircase (and probably couldn't fight its way out of a wet paper bag); with Gears, the AI was at least challenging. There were many times the Locust distracted my co-op partner and I with suppressive fire while sending a drone (or two) to flank us. If we didn't lay down our own lines of suppressive fire, the came at us both en masse. With the AI, we actually had to come up with some sort of strategy. Is it perfect? By no means is it, however, it's still better than that offered in R:FOM. If you're going to blame anyone for the chart/poll's AI score, you should blame Insomniac for not putting as much time and effort into the game's AI as it could have.

And your complaint about the cover scheme...what do you want the Locust to do Scott? Stand out in the open with a big red target stamped on their chests screaming, "Shoot me!"? It's more realistic to pop off of a few shots, take cover, and move to other vantage points to lay down more suppressive fire than it is to stand straight up and empty a clip; it's how soldiers are taught to fight in real life. Running and gunning like Rambo only works for Rambo. If a soldier was dumb enough to do that in reality, he'd get torn to shreds by enemy fire so quickly he wouldn't have the time necessary to void his bowels and see his life flash before his eyes.

Lastly, if all you do is incessantly whine in your posts, just go over to PS3fanboy, alright? They need more people like you to make them feel like their $500-$600 expenditures are more valid than anyone else's console purchase.

Anubis, your my hero. That little 11 year old Scott K, has to be by far the most annoying person I have seen on these boards.
Thanks Anubis for taking the time to write this.

Anubis,
I haven't seen an *ss chewing like that in years. I have not played Resistance, and so cannot judge who is right or wrong, but I admire your post!

Dude, I'm not a fan of the "rip on 360" genre, but make sure you got it right. Dont' think for a minute that Billy G's no longer a part of Microsoft. To believe that would mean one is dillusional.

Gears of War more like Craps of Crap :/
