speaking of glitches....



I seriously had a glitch last night that allowed me to stick myself


I stuck a guy RIGHT before he was downed. for some reason, a teammate came up and splattered him. As i was making a getaway (about 15ft from the dead enemy) I mysteriously blew up for no reason.

Funny thing is, I was the only with grenades, so some how the game allowed me to stick myself. Very weird

No question...Gears.

Vegas had some of the worst gameplay and worst graphics online. It seriously looks and plays like an N64 game. I could only stomach 1 or 2 matches before I had to turn it off and go back to Gears. How people can even play this, let alone say its good is beyond me. Saint's Row had a better online, and that was horrific.

I'm not trying to slam Vegas 100% though, the single player, as always, is a good time.

I love how after the quote above you say that you're not slamming the game.

I was slamming the awful online, not the single player...as I stated. This is after all, a poll on multiplayer.

yes, but this is the same thread that argues over subjectivity...

I'd imagine Giantrobo was laughing over your comments comparing the graphics of Vegas while online to a N64 game.

The way he described R6V was funny that's all. Not judging his opinion just laughing at how he layed it out.

I enjoy both games a great deal but I find it harder to stop playing Gears once I get into the game. Vegas is fun but between the lag, needing to rank up for better weapons and some of the people I've played with I tend to play the game for short bursts.

Someone saying that Vegas looks bad just amazes me because it just seems like someone stirring up trouble. You can think what you want and I can feel the way I feel about the comment. I think Lost Planet is visually stunning but boring as a single player game and annoying/lame online. People may disagree with me but thanks to my achievements people can see I tried to give it a fair shot before I gave up on it.

I'm glad you said that. Vegas looks great online.

He may be playing Vegas on an SDTV.

It's one of the games that apparently wasn't tested on an SDTV, and thus looks great on HD but looks like shit in SD (as per the reviews anyway).

Gears of War....HANDS DOWN! I was really dissapointed in RB6, mainly because of the LACK of action and horrendous aiming when firing a weapon. It felt like Halo 2, which I thought was a BIIIIIIIIG letdown.

To be honest, neither game will win a prize for aiming.

R6 takes the prize for me purely because of multiplayer options. Gears, if it offered options might have been a better challenger imo.

I am however, shocked that you, GearsWar666, found Gears of War to be a better game. Truly a revelation
