Not that I can answer this question myself in any way. Didn't participate in the Gears beta and can't seem to get online with the UC3 beta.

Archie, Travo, _Bear and Steel it's all in your hands now! Let's hear it when you all have a chance to play!

Well I tried to play twice so far and both times my PS3 hard locked, I would say its not ready for prime time.

Tried a few matches. The first wasn't too bad but the rest went completely to shit. Horrible, absolutely horrible lag the my system hardlocked. I know it's a beta but wow does it ever run bad. I really hope this gets fixed up fast because the game looks like it could be great fun especially the Airstrip level.

As for which one's better I'll say very confidently that it's Gears 3. Even when Uncharted 3 finally runs better then this Gears 3 is just much better online as it runs much tighter. The core of U3 online is more "twitchy" and "jumpy" then Gears 3.

Thank god we don't have to choose Arch, but I agree. I will have both though. We both know which will have the better single player though, there is no denying that.

Even with all the issues during this beta, U3 all the way for me. Gears MP is just not for me, and I'm in love with the traversal aspect of Uncharted MP.

Oh yeah I'm definitely getting both and Uncharted 3 will be lots of fun and plenty of game time from me.

I'm getting both, but if the Uncharted 2 mp is any indicator, Uncharted 3 will be the better experience.  I love the fatser pace and many different gameplay aspects.

Two words which also favour Gears 3, dedicated servers.

Now we're talking. Played a few games after the recent patch and things are MUCH better. I like the controls as they feel a bit tighter. The Power Play seems like a really cool feature. Not sure on the co-op Horde-type mode. With only 3 players able to play it doesn't feel quite as fun and I don't care for having a pool of lives you share from. They should have just straight up copied Gears of War Horde mode. Seems like it's going to be a great online multiplayer experience overall though with lots of things like medals to unlock and acquire.

I am gonna play it in my mind, for now. But one day I will be part of the glorious PC master race. No way in hell I am going to buy the inferior peasant versions!
