You're an idiot. Stop trying to create pointless arguements for the sake of it. Gears and Halo are two completely different games and it's ridiculous to even compare them.
The reason why this is obvious:
Halo 3 = FIRST PERSON SHOOTER
Gears of War = THIRD PERSON SHOOTER

I love americans which say this it just shows how little history they actually know.
Americans wanted the whole of north america to be free of European colonial powers did they achieve this? No, Canada still remained under British control. Although obviously America did achieve independence but did this count as a victory? Maybe but not as a clear cut one as many americans would have you believe.

As opposed to Gears and COD4 where it's regenerating health? Tell me, what's better about regenerating health when you hide away from a fight, as opposed to regenerating shield when you hide away from a fight?
Not to mention that you ignored the fact that a larger percentage of Halo 3 takes place on Earth than Gears does.
Roadpog has made the list.

It really doesn't - 12 BR rounds (4 shots) to kill, compared with how many Lancer rounds on Gears?
They are completely different games, you can't even compare them.
And you still won't recognise that there isn't even the slightest section of Gears that takes place on Earth. Not even a fraction of a percentage. Zero.

hmm... i agree with you to an extent, the campaign sucks more than i do at gears! but thats because i dont play either as they both bore me to death! an yes halo 3 was the biggest let down of all time apart from the editing and the chance to play new maps in the multiplayer! at the botom of my halo 3 case it says
"this is the game of the decade" well bungie i hope ur including the trilogy in that statement as halo2 kicked 3 out the ball park and took gears with it!

i totally disagree that the two games can't be compared there both roughly along the same theme and genre, in the context of the two games your both tryng to save your self from aniliation, u can compare the multiplayer from how your matched how your ranked. what type of playlist you play on the game, its playability, which has the better competition play the feel good factor you gat from the game so dont turn round an say you cant compare them because one's a third person and another a first person. thats no valid point for any reason not to debate about a games superiority over another.

They're not similar what so ever. I've played both games competitively, and they can no way be compared. Gears is slower paced, third person, you have one life and it's purely 'slayer', you can get 'downed'. Halo is fast paced, first person, numerous objective and slayer game types, and you keep respawning. Enough reasons?

i know there not identical, but your not convincing me that there not entirely different! i do feel they can be classed in the same genre to a certain degree!
Looking at your last point, i think you compared the two games pretty well taking away the first six words! so thankyou as you have just proved my original arguement, that its not impossible to compare the two games!

Halo and gears Are pretty much the same its just the view point and the gametypes the game play is very similiar.
For a few small things such as running on gears u automatically can do that on halo
Shooting wise its just a different view point
But the way is played is very similiar u all rush in and get kills.
u all jostle for the super weapons like. Rocket launchers and so on and so forth or boomshot
Some points are similiar its just the game is played at different paces

My point is that gameplay-wise they are extremely different, and not 'pretty much the same' as Roadpog put it. Same as with Forza and PGR, however they are the same genre of game and therefore directly comparable. For instance, you can compare Handling, Physics, Realism, Content (cars), Track designs, Speed etc.

No - because they are different genres and designed to be different. So any differences can't be compared as a plus or minus point for either game, because they are different genres and supposed to be that way. Crhist, this isn't hard to understand.
