Really, the PS3 counterpart to Gears has been Resistance. Especially 2, coming out just days before Gears.

And you forget, the PS3 already has a TPS exclusive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_Gear_Solid_4).

I had been thinking of Resistance as a Gears counterpart as well, but the majority of people just don't see it for some reason. I actually prefer FPS (Resistance) to TPS (Gears), but whatever floats your boat really.

And MGS4 is - as you alluded to - one heck of a TPS exclusive. However, it's definitely not a "run-n-gun" shooter like Gears. That said, Quantum Theory - from what I can tell - is meant to be the direct answer to Gears of War.

So FPSs bring in the hardcore gamers now?


In any case, Gears of War is a very good game, but the PS3 does have its own games to match it; Like the games supersickie and Mark mentioned. Sure, FPSs are awesome, but "Hardcore" gamers isn't defined by games such as Gears of War.
It could be anything, Reaching from RPGs (wut? Spending 60 hours on a game), to platform games.
And the PS3 does have a lot of those gamers.

i dont see resistance as a gear counter part, i see dark secor and quantum theory as counter parts, to me resistance is a counter part to halo, and the thing that i want people to know is you can not compare a TPS to a FPS for one reasion it like comparing mario kart to GT5, if you know what i mean, both racing games but different genre to to racing, so i dont compare resistance to gears, personly TSG are better then FPS cause they look better.

Gears is a new genre to fps which wee dont see many of, i was going to make a quantum theory thread but has it been made

You might not see Resistance as an answer to Gears of War and that's fine; wait for Quantum Theory. However, I have to disagree when it comes to comparing TPS and FPS; that's nothing like comparing arcade and simulation racers.

Curious, would you say that Gears of War looks better than, say, Killzone 2 or Resistance 2? No matter your opinion, it's pure preference. Certain games are better suited as TPS and others are more geared for FPS.

And I'm not sure there's much need for a Quantum Theory thread; not too much out on the game at the moment.

i wont make it then

the reason why i think TPS are better is because i have see lot of TPS and FPS and the gameplay in TPS are more fun, and also they look better, like warhawk they lloks way better then resistance 2 in my opinion, also the animation on the character are better when they are walking

Take this as you will but I don't think that any console should have a Gears rip-off. Plus I wouldn't even say that Gears was a hardcore gamers game. Now I consider myself a casual gamer but I have PS3, Xbox and Wii and also play on PC. I also have been playing games since I can remember (One of my first memorys is playing some Star Wars game on an Atari-whatever)

I bought the first Gears and I didn't think it was all that good. I thought the controls were crap as was the level and art design. Now this isn't ment to be a huge Gears bash but that diffrent ppl like diffrent games I am a fan of FPS / TPS but that was just not worth the hype.

And to be honest I have never understood where all this 'Hardcore' talk has came from.

(please note this is a rant and not a flame I just wanted to (poorly) point out that diffrent people have diffrent ideas of what games are good 'hardcore' or not)

It's called Quantum Theory -.-' It's the PS3's answer to Gears.

I love Gears as much as the next guy, and I think it's an outstanding game, but it's just a Shootemup. Whatever, it's TPS not FPS, and personally, I don't think it's anything like Resistance, and I agree on the Resistance/Halo counterpart kinda thing.

And since when was the PS3 not attracting hardcore gamers? I think you mean "the kids that sit on CoD4 all day being racist and rude". That's all you're gonna get with Gears / Halo.

ALSO

TPS don't always look better. Sure, MGS4 was an outstanding game, and that worked great as TPS. But you forget about CoD4, probably the best selling game this year -.-'

Gears is NOT run n' gun. If you try to just run n' gun you WILL die. CoD 4 and Halo are run n' gun, in GoW you have to take cover constantly.2008-11-13 22:16:00

Not true, Gears of War is 100% Run N' Gun, I would know from experience being in 56th ranking in the first one, for warzone. It was literally, run and gun, I would take out my shotty, run up to a guy while hes lancering me down, and do what a lot of people call "Wall Bouncing" which means bounce from wall to wall in order to get closer to your enemy while avoiding bullets, I would get close enough to kill them in one hit.

Now as for Gears of War 2! That's definately a different story, it's amazing how ONE and I mean ONE little thing can change the whole perspective and gameplay of the game, you might of heard of a little thing called "Stopping Power"

Well, what it does is, causes your character to slow down while being shot at, so you can't just run at someone full charge, the game has now taken a new meaning and I haven't played one game that doesn't require teammwork, I'll give Epic mad Props for that change.

But, to stay on topic, I really hope Quantum Theory has the main features of Gears of War, because in my opinion Gears of War was a really good game, and was the only game keeping me from selling my Xbox, did it anyways so oh well.

Glad I did it though

gears may look better, but i prefer resistance to gears as well.

We don't need a gears clone, if Sony did, it will just put us in bad light. They will also lose their business ethics reputation...

I say Sony can just keep pumping out the games, and M$ can just keep buying as much exclusives as they want in a desperate attempt to save their brand...

saying that then you might as well not buy COD-WaW because it basically it a cod 4 clone just different setting, all first person shooters are clone of each other and it hard to make a unique weapon. Quantum theory will be a gameplay clone but i bet it will have differentences.

their more stragie in gears then in cod 4, and if you gun and run in gears you mosty likey get killed

I wouldn't say Quantum Theory will be a Gears clone. After all, is there really anything terribly unique about Gears? Tecmo shouldn't catch any serious flak because - to be honest - there's nothing that special about Gears in the first place.

Microsoft really is shameless when it comes to paying for exclusivity or - in the case of FFXIII - paying a production company to go multiplatform. The real downfall of the 360 will be the absence of Blu-ray and FFXIII will be a prime example of just that.

Look, chances are, Quantum Theory will have the same time of gameplay as Gears, basically because it has a Cover System (so does gears), not to mention the graphics are trhe same style.. Big bulky guys with huuge arms, and lots of grey everywhere.

I'm not bothered if it's like Gears, 'cause I like it. I just hope to god, it includes something like the way Gears use their shotguns.. Hope sniping works the same too.

The graphics on CoD4 are outstanding, no question. You cannot deny it, you can't argue against it, because it is indeed fact. It's a visually outstanding game.

Sure when you go upclose to walls and stare at them they don't look so good, but no game has that.
