    GRAW or COD2

    I live in Australia and the PAL xbox360 is being released next week so i'm yet to play the console. Just a quick question regarding which game out of these two you would recommend (they are both launch titles here and cost roughly the same)?

    There is obviously a lot of great GRAW impressions flying around now because it has just been released but the same was being said about COD2 when it first came out as well.

    I mostly play off line (only have dial up at home for the time being and do 99% of my net usage on my work broadband connection).

    Which would you choose if faced with the choice out of the two or are both games different enough and both of such a high quality that getting both is the way to go.

    Thanks

    Id get both. IMO both have incredible single player experiences that shouldnt be missed.

      offline I prefer COD2...the AI of your teammates in GRAW isn't really to my liking, and the COD2 single player sucks you in

      multiplayer, it's GRAW in a landslide...i'm more addicted playing this online than I was for single player on either...

          if you have the money get both. but if you can only get one then do you want a WWII game or a game based in 2013.

            Thanks for the opinions guys....

            Right now i'm leaning more towards the futuristic approach of GRAW as i have played quite a few WWII games (and have enjoyed them) but GRAW sounds a little more like a "next gen" type of game where as COD2 sounds like a prettier version of something like the MOH type games. Having not played either though i'm really just guessing.

            Basically it seems like from most of the posts here so far:

            If i have xbox live = GRAW
            If i'm playing mostly single player = flip a coin.

            I think i'm gonna try and pick up GRAW, COD2, NBA 2k6 and possibly nba live 06 (i'm a hoops junkie and live comes at launch while 2k6 is about another month away here for the PAL release) sometime in the next few weeks. It's just a matter of finding the funds to do it and convincing my wife that i "need" 4 games for a new system.

                Get both games if you can.

                I haven't played live but the impressions and reviews haven't made me want to rush out and get it if you know what I mean and I'm also a hoops junkie.

                  I'd say get both... of course I'm in the minority on this one. I'd get Live (my hoops title of choice this year), 2K6 (Excellent title, but not to my extreme likings this year), COD2 (Excellent single player game), and GRAW (My favorite game from recent memory)...

                    Re: GRAW or COD2

                    I've heard some bad things about live too (the dude at EB even went out of his way to tell me it looks great but the gameplay stinks) but i think with some of the edits Playmakers has done i can get a decent, realistic experience for at least the month it takes for 2k6 to get a local release. I don't think having only non-sports games available (COD2 and GRAW) would keep me interested untill well into April when 2k6 is released here.

                    Has anyone played much split screen multi-player on either COD2 or GRAW and could add some insight into what it is like. At least i have read GRAW has bots, does COD?

                      GRAW-online COD2 is a waste.

                        Re: GRAW or COD2

                        COD has no bots... Split screen multiplayer means deathmatch, capture the flag, and that's it in COD. In GRAW, there are so many options, dealing with bots... it's crazy. It's just an all around awesome game.

                        Don't Listen to the guys who are saying the game is trash. Like I said, if you want to take the time and edit the game, it is a great bball title. If you don't edit it, it is complete trash. But after all the hard work by PM, and everybody, I think this game plays a great game of bball, and will definately hold you over. Just don't get rid of it when you get 2K6... the novelty will most likely wear off too, and it's good to have both in your lineup if you can.

                            I would go with both and not to mention, BattleField will be out in April. I do think they are both excellent offline and at the moment, GRAW is 1000 X's better than COD online. I hope they finally get to patching COD, its been asked for and in the works for a long time now. FPS are looking good for the 360.

                              I voted for both, even though I think GRAW is the better game IMO, I think COD is a great game in it's own right. If I had to chose I would go with GRAW.
