Im not sure which game I am more excited for. I love both styles and look and feel of each game but since I already have a PS3 I think I will pick up BF3 first and then maybe buy a used Xbox 360 to start GoW3

    Its always best to jump into a new multiplayer game first so you may have the upper hand and also use words like newb after a giving out a good arse kicking

    Gears is a third person shooter and its super hard to master so I am gona buy that one first

    Gears multiplayer has always bored me. Horde mode was fun with some friends for a little while but only lasted so long.

    Battlefield has always had a strong multiplayer and I know I'll have more fun with it. I'll be getting the PC version though. Keyboard & mouse + 1600p... yes please!

    If your PC is also circa 2005, even 2009, don't even bother with the BF3 previews.

    Yeah, you say it was a joke... I still play GRAW2 co-op with friends on occasion. Ubisoft needs to get off their asses and give us a new Rainbow Six game!
