If you had a kidney to sell to afford one of these games, which one would you buy and why?
 
Well, I wouldn't sell a kidney for one of those, seeing as (healthy) kidneys can easily go up to R100k each... I'll just work a full day's worth of overtime and by them all! :D
 
personally i'd get cod5 because i like fps more than 3rd person (gow2) and the local multiplayer scene will probably have much higher players than farcry2. but thats just my humble opinionated 2c. only if i had to choose though, because i'm getting both gow2 and cod5 :)
 
GeOW II
Farcry 2
COD 5

Thats the order I'd consider them in.
COD W@W isn't really impressive for me
 
Is FarCry2 any good? Looking at my XBOX Live friends, seems everyone is playing COD5 or GOW2

+2

Treyarch royally fscked up COD by making another WW2 game :mad: (Looking at Wiki, COD6 is being made for next year, back to Infinity Ward)
 
I'd agree with Solidus' list. Personally i'd go for R2 above any of those titles, but i assume you don't own a PS3, so if those are the only titles to choose from, i'd mirror Solidus' list.

Different strokes

The question was posed with GeoW2 :rolleyes:
 
Now if only Sony and M$ will sign a deal allowing developers to make multi-plat games cross platform. It's actually a win win situation where fanboys can virtually destroy each other. :D

I played W@W for 20minutes and threw the controller down, it's like Hollywood and Nazi movies :sick:
 
I'm quite interested in the way the game's "story" plays out according to what th players do in the game. Very innovative, imho.
 
I have both:
1) Gears 2
2) Far Cry 2

I havent had much time with FC2, but it seems okay but not more than that.

Gears on the other hand was a bit of a dissapointment for me. I found the single player campaign was good but missing an epic final battle like in pt1 with General Raam.

The multi-player just sucks IMO... Epic tried to make it more tactical and have slowed down the gameplay with emphasis on tactics and team work. They have practically eliminated the power of the shotgun and sniper that they had in pt1. The chainsaw is almost unstoppable. If I want to play something tactical I have RB6 dammit!!!

As far as COD5 goes Ive heard its okay but not up to scratch as COD4 was. Having played and enjoyed COD4 I dont want to ruin the experience. So if I do get this one I will wait till its pre-played or in the bargain bin.
 
cod 5 SP = good.. not as good as cod4
Cod 5 MP = sucks
Far Cry 2 - hope u enjoy driving and lousy AI
Gears fo War - excellent console game
 
I'd have to agree with Solidus.

The only caveat would be that if you're an SP only player you may get more hours out of Far Cry 2, but if there's any MP (Co-op or versus) Gears 2 takes it.

As for chainsaw beating shotty, there's a very simple solution, shoot to kill, one shot stop gets me every time :o
