Does GoW have P.E.C. (character customization)?
Does GoW let you scan your face onto your character?
Does GoW have a wide range of weapons?
Does GoW have the map Casino Vault?
Does GoW have me online?

The answer to all of them is NO. So R6V is your game.
See, that doesn't do it for me, excluding the last one. I play games for the gameplay and how fun it is to you know, actually play it. And online only, I never play single player.

So stuff like character customization, putting your face onto your guys face and a wide variety of weapons doesn't do balls to me unless it's fun to play at the same time. They might have tons of weapons, but some might blow or something. I Played casino vault and all people did was sit behind absolutely anything they could find and camp all round while I ran around.

So idk, maybe GoW is for me if you actually get to be in gunfights and such. The whole tactical thing of hiding behind stuff and being stealthy and throwing precision grenades round after round gets pretty old for me after a while.

Idk, I hated r6v, basically because all people do is sit their *** down somewhere and wait for people. So boring. Havn't played gow though yet.

R6V's team sharpshooter is mostly a camp fest. I recommend you to try Co-op online, much more intense than SOCOM.

Personally, I like GoW online more than R6V, but R6V is just .00000001% under GoW in my list of awesomeness, GoW being a 1000%. OH YEAH!

Yeah, get pissed at me for saying this, but GoW sucks. 4v4? Gimme a break. Played it, didn't enjoy it. I've had enough unrealistic moster/alien killing games by now. I just can't get into it.

Realism is where it's at, and that's what R6V is. Realistic warfare.

See whenever I play these 'realistic' games, it's purely camping. NOBODY moves. R6V. Socom 3. Graw? They're all the same in terms of fun-level for me, all people do is camp...well, every room I'm in anyway, it's so boring. The unrealisticness makes people for some reason run around, which in my books, is better and more fun.

I'm not getting mad at you at all but man come on, 4v4 is great in this game. 8v8 or more would blow because the maps would be too small and iff you try and snipe/chainsaw you'll just get owned. Too me the game is perfect, you duck and cover quick, fire, snipe, chainsaw, and curb stomp. The perfect game for me.

Why do you play a game for realism? They're GAMES. Not real life. You want realistic graphics and cool simulations? Go do it in real life.

That's true, but you don't get respawns in real life. Courtesy lol. But anywho, realism is in GoW, just look how you get blown to pieces by a grenade and shotgun.

I hear what you're saying, and I see a lot of it. I think it is because it's a realistic, tactical shooter.

Two well-placed shots will down a man on R6V, so you've got to move carefully. I think the camping is augmented by the latest wave of new players though. They either camp or they get slaughtered by the more experienced.
