Have you played the Demo of either game?

TBH with you, GoW2 was one of the BEST games I've ever played on the 360. I played that game for hours and hours straight day after day. Couldnt get enough of it! But, it doesnt take long to get annoyed with the online play... if you're going to do a lot of online gaming with GoW2 the matchmaking sucks and takes forever... you'll get pissed off at it quick. That is the only downside in my opinion though.

I have never really followed LOTR at all, but I guess if your a LOTR fan this wouldnt be an easy decision to make between the two games!

I'm not sure if the Conquest demo is still available on Live, but if you havent played it you should check and see if its still out there... should be.

Default Gears of War 2, no doubt, no regrets.

Welcome to the world of video games! If you have to ask a question like that, you're certainly new to the button mashing, pixel reacting, and mind stimulating world that is video game interactions.

The only reason you'd ever want LOTR over Gears of War 2, is because you're a parent with enough responsibility to heed the content rating. (Umm, LotR Conquest is Teen rated, right guys?)
