Lost Planet VS. GoW

Hi,

I am getting a 360 this week and can only afford to get one game. I am looking for a great multiplayer game to start out with. I am new the to the 360 and the controller. I play alot of FPS on the computer though. I have read that the controls for Lost Planet are hard to learn. So now I am considering GoW or Lost Planet. Which MP is better? Also is Lost Planet DeathMatch or Team Matches?

Thanks in advance,

Xbox N00b

    Uh... GoW... it's not even a contest. They aren't even in the same league.

    It's like asking which is better between GoW and Barbies Horse Adventure.

    Gears of War hands down, no contest, roll over and have a smoke.

    GoW's co-op is sweet, and the multiplayer is cool as well.

    I have GoW and only played the Lost Planet demo. I say you go with GoW.

    I own both and GoW is not only more visually impressive, but just plain more fun all over. Go for gow.

    I was going to recommend Rainbow Six Vegas (:lol:), but since you're a big PC FPS fan, you probably wouldn't be nearly as impressed with it as I was. In this case, I'll throw in another vote for Gears. It's short, the the multiplayer has legs, definitely.

    I don't own a 360 so take this with a grain of salt, but I believe for multiplayer your best bet would be GoW or Rainbow 6: Vegas (I'm assuming you mean online).

    Yes I mean Online through Live not offline MP.

    Good god don't waste your time with LP. GoW is by far more superior and should be one of the first additions if not the first to your 360 library.
